From exchanging vows on golden beaches to unforgettable views, let us show you why a destination wedding in Bali is a dream come true…
For your milestone moment, you deserve a celebration as unique as your love story – and a cookie-cutter wedding simply won’t cut it. Cast aside the tried-and-tested wedding banquets in Singapore ‘cos we’re setting our sights on an exotic island getaway in the heart of Bali, Indonesia. A convenient escape from our city, breathtaking scenery and a celebration to remember… There’s lots to love about this tropical destination. Need a nudge towards a destination wedding? Read on for five reasons why it’s the way to go.
Why Bali is the ultimate venue for a destination wedding
1. Location, location, location
Jetting off to a wedding abroad sounds alluring, but the thought of the journey? Not so much. Luckily, the gorgeous island of Bali is under three hours away by plane! Before you know it, you’ll be stepping into a tropical paradise and ready for your big day. Your guests will thank you for the short and sweet commute, too. With flights from Singapore to Bali often available at a steal (we’ve spotted round-trip tickets for under $150!), it’s a win-win for all. Just keep an eye on the airline deals and snap them up fast.
2. A scenic feast for the eyes
Forget the same ol’ hotel backdrops you see at weddings in Singapore. The picturesque venues in Bali will leave you thoroughly spoilt for choice. Set up a sunset wedding by the beach with golden sands and ocean views at Seminyak or Nusa Dua. Or, hold your milestone moment at a breathtaking clifftop in Uluwatu. There are also lush garden landscapes in Ubud, awe-inspiring chapels, and private villas for a more intimate ceremony. Feel free to take your pick ‘cos they’ll all be mega picture-worthy.
3. Your golden opportunity for a cosier guest list
Not a fan of OTT weddings or banquets with a gazillion tables? An intimate destination wedding calls for a close-knit guest list with just your loved ones. Plus, not everyone will be able (or want) to take time off to attend a wedding abroad. Sounds like the perfect excuse to keep distant relatives whom you barely know off the list, we say.
4. Save big with all-inclusive packages
When it comes to saving costs, a pro tip is to opt for full-service packages so you get more bang for your buck. The same goes for destination weddings. Take advantage of enticing wedding packages that cover all the nitty-gritty details of the reception, a lavish hotel stay for you and your boo, and more. You’ll get to leave the heavy lifting to the pros and save yourself the hassle, too.
5. Stage your sweet escape after tying the knot
Picture this: it’s the day after your wedding. Instead of stressing about packing up and jetting off for your honeymoon, you’re already in a tropical paradise. That’s an unbeatable draw of having a destination wedding in Bali. You can skip the hassle of travelling and seamlessly embark on your honeymoon. Plus, with its pristine beaches, gourmet restaurants and vibrant nightlife, Bali checks all the boxes as a swoon-worthy destination for newlyweds.
