How to Choose a Bali Wedding Venue: 6 Tips for Couples
Planning to marry in Bali? Use these six tips to pick a Bali wedding venue, from budget, location and guest comfort to weather, permits and vendor.
Are you planning to marry on the island of Bali and looking for a Bali wedding venue with natural beauty? Holding a wedding away from home has its difficulties, but you will gain an unforgettable experience. A sacred ceremony with your closest family and friends will surely be more meaningful. The province offers many wedding venues with a full range of facilities and views. Before deciding which Bali wedding venue to go with, it helps to settle a few things, covered below!
- Budget
Budget is one of the key points when choosing from the list of Bali wedding venues you like. The amount you allocate for the party and guest accommodation depends, to a large degree, on how many guests you invite. The more guests you invite, the bigger the venue you need, the more food you must prepare and the more rooms you must provide. It is worth thinking carefully about which relatives you want at your big day with your partner.
- Location
You will find a long list of Bali wedding venues if you browse a search engine. Bali offers many beautiful places to marry. Choose carefully and in line with the concept you and your partner have in mind. Will it be busy South Bali, quiet Ubud, a resort with a beautiful little chapel, a private villa, the nearest beach, or a spot with views of rice fields and a river? This is where you need to think it through and fit the choice to your budget.
- Comfort
All Bali wedding venues are held outdoors, which is why you need to consider your guests' comfort outside. You also need to think about the impression your guests will take away from your wedding. Ask whether the outdoor venue has a cooled space for elderly guests, whether it is easy to reach for guests staying in different places, and other such questions. Comfort is very important, and couples planning a wedding in Bali often forget it.
- Weather and timing forecast
November to February is the rainy season in Indonesia, while March to October is the dry season. A wedding in Bali is an open-air wedding, so you need to think about the best time to hold it there.
- Prepare permits
If you will marry outside your hometown, you need to prepare complete documents so the wedding goes smoothly. A public gathering permit (izin keramaian) and a letter permitting you to marry away from your home area (surat menumpang menikah) are needed to hold the sacred ceremony without interruption.
- Choose the Right Wedding Organizer
The last and most important point when choosing a Bali wedding venue is picking the right, credible vendor. Remember to choose a company with a good name and customer testimonials on its website. Do not be tempted by cheap prices.
You can entrust your villa wedding venue in Bali to The Surga Villa Estate, which has a villa estate concept on the Bukit Peninsula, Bali.
