answers.
The questions couples ask us most. If yours is not here, write to us and ask it.
Planning
- How far in advance should we start planning?
- For a wedding of 40 guests or more, eight to twelve months is comfortable. Small ceremonies and elopements can be arranged in a few weeks if the paperwork allows it.
- Do we have to visit Thailand before the wedding?
- No. Many of our couples arrive a few days before. We send video walkthroughs, photographs and live video calls from every venue we propose.
- Which month is best?
- It depends on the region. The Andaman coast and the Gulf coast have different wet seasons, so we suggest destinations to fit your dates rather than the other way round.
Money
- How do you charge?
- A planning fee agreed in advance, set against the scope of the work. Supplier costs are shown to you openly and we do not add hidden mark-ups.
- Do you have packages?
- No. Every quotation is written for your guest count, venue and priorities. We do publish budget levels so you can see roughly where you sit.
Legal
- Does a beach ceremony make us legally married?
- No. A ceremony is symbolic. A legal marriage is registered at a district office, and it can be done before or after the ceremony.
- Can same-sex couples marry in Thailand?
- Yes. The Marriage Equality Act came into force on 23/01/2025. Whether that marriage is recognised in your own country depends on your own country's law.
- Do you give legal advice?
- No. We explain the process from experience and help with documents and appointments, but we are not lawyers and requirements vary by nationality.
On the day
- What happens if it rains?
- Every outdoor wedding we plan has a named covered alternative decided before any deposit is paid, with a clear cut-off time for making the call.
- Will someone be there who speaks our language?
- Yes. A member of our team is on site all day, working in Thai with suppliers and in your language with you and your guests.
- Can you handle dietary, mobility or childcare needs?
- Yes, and we ask about them early. Halal, vegetarian, allergy, wheelchair access and childcare are planned into the layout, not improvised on the day.
