Wedding and Travel Blog

Although one might think an Asian wedding would be costly, with the internet and other resources, you can plan your dream wedding for much cheaper than it would cost in the United States. It's simple to find competitive pricing on airfare using the internet. As a plus, you're already at a beautiful location for a honeymoon. Just don't forget your passport.

An Indonesian Wedding
Indonesia is full of culture and beauty, and would make an ideal spot to say your vows. There are many gorgeous parks, romantic beaches and lavish resorts that would make perfect wedding and honeymoon venues. Resorts there will help you take care of all the details of your wedding, unless you want to make the plans here yourself.

The island of Bali is bustling year round with festivals, music and dancing. A hotel like the Ritz-Carlton can handle every detail of your wedding day for you, so you can just enjoy it. American money goes a long way in Asia, and you will be shocked at how much you can get for your dollar. Bali can be enjoyed year round.

Thailand Romance
A Thailand wedding can be colorful and very different from a Western wedding. The beach side resorts in Phuket are phenomenal, especially at night. Sample some Thai cooking at one of many five-star restaurants. Take a hike in the lush, green mountains or go for a scuba dive.

You must get clearance from the American embassy before you can get married in Thailand. The best prices to travel to Thailand occur between May and October.

Marriage in Maldives
The Maldives are known for water sports, and there are plenty of choices. Diving, swimming and boating are just a few ways you and your husband can get out into the ocean. There are plenty of romantic wedding options from amazing resorts to white sandy beaches. The water is clear and sky blue and the Maldavian flowers are beautiful.

You will have to have a civil ceremony in the United States either before or after your Maldives wedding, because non-Muslims can't officially get married there. However, lots of couples opt for the "symbolic" ceremony, which is not legally binding. The best prices on airfare to the Maldives occur between May and November.
