In recent years, more and more people have been opting out of traditional weddings and choosing instead to do something more unique, personal, and different. One method that many couples have used to make their special day magical is having their marriage ceremony in another country.
Getting married abroad gives them a much wider range of venues and settings to choose from. Another chief consideration is the weather. It is these things that have led many couples to get married in Thailand, where there is a wide variety of stunning backdrops to choose from and the weather is hot and sunny for most of the year.
If you’re interested in joining those happy couples and holding your wedding in Thailand, this guide will give you some tips on how to find the right venue.

Choose the right area
Thailand is divided into a number of diverse geographical regions, from bustling cities to jungles and paradise islands to rolling hills. The following is a quick introduction to some of the most popular Thai destinations.
Bangkok
The Thai capital is a sprawling, skyscraper-filled urban jungle. It is home to a number of the country’s best hotels and many of the most important cultural and historical sites in Thailand. There’s lots to do, so it could be a good choice if you or your guest plan to stay a while.
Phuket
This province in the south of the country is best known for its beautiful beaches which rank among the best in the world. Beach weddings are very popular nowadays, and many hotels have responded to the demand for them by offering wedding packages in Phuket. This can help take a lot of the pain out of planning an overseas wedding.
Chiang Mai
Chiang Mai is a major city in the north of Thailand, but it is smaller and less intense than Bangkok, and it is surrounded by scenic rolling hills. This is a good spot for those looking for a more breezy, mild climate and a beautiful natural backdrop.
Pick the right venue
Once you’ve picked the region where you want to have your wedding, you’ll want to find a great venue. Here are some of the things you need to consider to help you find it.
Atmosphere and Capacity
Whether you’re looking for a modern and chic venue or a traditional one, you’ll be able to find one in Thailand. Remember to look at both hotels and independent wedding venues. However, remember that what they provide will also be limited by their location. Hotels in Bangkok are unlikely to have large gardens for outdoor ceremonies, for example.
Also keep the capacity in mind. For example, hotels that offer beach weddings in Phuket might only have permission to use a small segment of the beach.
Budget
Your venue should suit your budget. As well as the rental and any services that the venue will supply for you, remember to include transportation costs to and from the venue, if necessary.
Conclusion
Thailand’s amazing surroundings, variety of venues, and helpful hospitality make it an excellent wedding destination. When you are planning your big day, remember to consider the factors above so that you can really create a day that aligns with your dream.
