Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a wedding in Bali cost?

It really depends, how long is a piece of string? Every wedding is unique. Costs vary based on your guest numbers, venue choice, and the style of celebration you’re after. Some couples spend $30k, others $100k+. The best way to know is to chat with us about your vision and we’ll map out a tailored budget.

April to October is dry season and the most popular time for weddings. November to March is wet season, but we still plan plenty of weddings then (with wet weather plans in place). Bonus – we often have discounts during wet season, so if you don’t mind a little rain, you can save big.


Here are the essentials most couples include:

  • Venue hire

  • Wedding planning services

  • Celebrant

  • Sound for ceremony

  • Flowers and styling

  • Photography and videography

  • Entertainment (band/DJ)

  • Sound and AV for reception

  • Lighting for dinner and dance floor

  • Furniture and tableware hire

  • Hair and makeup

  • Electricity or generator fee

  • Council (banjar) fee

  • Additional entertainment (fire dancers, fireworks, etc.)

  • Are you covering costs for your bridal party or guests?

Great question, it really comes down to the vibe you want. Villas give you privacy and a more intimate feel, while hotels provide convenience, catering, and guest accommodation all in one.

Not at all! Many of our couples plan entirely from overseas. We handle the legwork, site visits, and supplier meetings, and keep you updated with videos and virtual tours. That said, if you want to come for a planning trip, we’ll line up tastings and viewings to make it worth your while.

We recommend 12–18 months out for peak season dates. Some venues book out 2 years ahead. For smaller weddings or elopements, you can book closer even 1-6 months in advance.

Yes, but it depends on your nationality and religion. Many couples choose to do the legal paperwork at home and have a commitment ceremony in Bali. We can talk you through what’s possible for your situation.

Yes, we offer both fully custom weddings and curated packages (perfect for elopements or smaller groups). Packages cover venue, celebrant, flowers, photography, planning, and more – you can add extras on top if you like.

We’ll always have a Plan B. Most venues allow for tents, marquees, or indoor areas as backup. We’ll talk you through wet weather options early so there are no surprises.

Not at all! We love everything from proposals, to intimate elopements to 200+ guest celebrations. Big or small, we bring the same care and attention.

 Yes! Through our sister company, Bali Concierge Co, we can assist with transport, tours, dinner bookings, recovery days, and more, making the whole trip amazing for your guests too.

We’re the most experienced team in Bali, with over 10 years of weddings under our belt. We know the venues, the suppliers, and every trick in the book to make sure your day is seamless. Plus, we’re fun to work with and planning should be fun.

Picking a wedding planner is like picking your wedding dress, you’ve got to vibe with them. You’ll be spending months (sometimes years) working together, so make sure you actually like them and feel comfortable. We often get couples switching planners to us half way through as they are not happy or vibing with their planner – so some key things to look at when doing your research – 

A few things to look out for:

  • Experience matters. Weddings can be chaos, things will go wrong, and you need someone who knows how to handle it calmly without freaking you (or your guests) out.

  • Check how they handle stress. The best planners don’t just make things pretty, they make things work. When there’s a last-minute power cut or the florist is late, you want calm, not chaos.

  • Busy doesn’t mean unavailable. If your planner has a packed calendar, that’s usually because they’re in demand. The key is whether they have systems, processes, and a team to keep everything moving smoothly.

  • Ask about backup. Not every planner has a team behind them, so make sure you know who steps in if they get sick or gosh forbid double-booked. A good planner will always have a Plan B and a solid team behind them.

  • Trust your gut. If you don’t click with them, don’t force it. There are plenty of planners out there, but the right one will make you feel excited and supported, not stressed or ignored.
  • Just choose us you wont regret it haha xoxo
