Thai Wedding
For those who've found a kindred spirit they want to spend the rest of their lives with and are looking to share the happiness with friends and family, a wedding in Thailand is the perfect choice. With the appeal of exchanging i-do's on a faraway island surrounded by the closest of loved ones, destination weddings are increasingly popular for global brides and grooms to be. Tying the knot overseas generally means more mileage for your money, and like lush icing on an already perfect cake, the sweetness of the vows is further complemented by the romance of an exotic location. Blessed with world class service, top notch facilities, and stunning natural scenery that puts postcards to shame, Thailand is a choice that's second to none when it comes to your perfect day. The traditional Thai wedding is still widely practiced, with centuries-old customs adhered to. Although not essentially a religious event, monks are commonly invited to the early ceremony, which is usually held on the morning of the reception. In addition to picking auspicious times and dates for the nuptials, merits are typically made and the couple is blessed by monks for the added insurance of a lifetime of love and bliss. In keeping with the culture of respecting elders, a senior member from the bride's family plays an important part in the ceremony. Dressed in traditional Thai clothing with flower garlands hanging around their necks, the couple kneels before the elder while a specially prepared white thread is looped and linked on the their heads, symbolising the union of two individuals. The elder then pours sacred water over the hands of the couple before the guests join the act of well wishing. Villa weddings are private, which ensures the ceremonies are embraced in warm and fuzzy intimacy. Resort residences have the added benefit of gorgeous locations and are stunning views, with the sparkling azure sea or lush landscaped gardens providing the backdrop to the celebration. A villa is ideal for the perfect photo album that will trump all others in the newlyweds' collection with colourful flower arches, a balmy breeze wafting past her wedding veil, and the kiss of the glittering tropical sun on everyone's smiling faces. Logistics are also simplified, with most exchanges of vows on the white powdery sand followed by a reception celebration just skips away in the villa's garden grounds or around the private swimming pool. With fully equipped kitchens, canapes and snacks are easily prepared and cold bubblies kept topped up. After a full day of love, the new Mister and Missus can retire back to the villa before setting out for the honeymoon. The gamut of wedding services available through villa management companies in Thailand includes dedicated wedding planners, who can painstakingly tease out all the fine details for an unforgettable overseas villa wedding. If the country and its culture play a significant role, a traditional Thai wedding can also be arranged, complete with a festive Thai dance and drum parade as well as monks to bless the lucky couple. Be it travel arrangements, photographers, bouquets, or tiered cakes, all aspects of a wedding celebration can be catered for locally. With personalised five star service, extravagant villas in inspiring settings, and appealing local traditions, Thailand is a dream destination to start your journey to the rest of your lives as one. |
