In recent months, Thailand has been prominently figured in the international headlines for its political problems. While this news may alarm potential visitors, we still believe that Thailand an ideal place to hold a destination wedding! Here’s why:

1. It’s business as usual in Thailand. Despite the recent (and peaceful) military coup last month, life carries on. With the exception of an army presence in key city areas, you are unlikely to notice anything unusual. Also, the nationwide-curfew has been lifted.

2. More value for your money. Even with expense of international travel, luxurious touches and personalised services, a destination wedding in Thailand is a good financial option, compared to what you might pay back home. Also, to encourage tourists to return to the country, hotel and resort operators are likely to be more willing to lower their rates and/or negotiate competitive wedding packages.

3. Natural beauty abounds. Take your pick of the country’s many picturesque beach resort areas, from the mellow vibe of Hua Hin to the tropical shores of Phuket and stunning limestone cliffs of Krabi. If you prefer the mountains and a touch of the unique Lanna culture, Thailand also offers gorgeous wedding venues in its northern region, including Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai and Mae Hong Son.

4. Service with a smile. As always, Thai service standards will exceed your expectations. Thailand is well known for the quality of its hospitality industry staff, where every need is met with a gracious, friendly grin.

5. Two words: the food. Thai cuisine is world famous for its diverse ingredients and profusion of enticing flavours. From savoury starters and spicy salads to indulgent coconut-based desserts, Thai food is well suited for a cocktail-style wedding reception or buffet dinner. Alternately, Western classics can also be prepared to please everyone’s tastes.

6. Plenty of fun for all. Whether you are hosting your nuptials on an island or in the mountains, your family and friends will never be bored. There’s something for everyone, including vibrant nightlife, dynamic shopping venues, culinary tours, nature hikes, elephant trekking, water sports and much more.
