FAQ
Bali Brides, wedding and event planners Most Frequantly asked questions
- When is the best time of year to get married in Bali? April – October with May-September being best weather wise.
- How many months / years out do I need to book my wedding? We reccommend at least 12-18 months to avoid missing out on key dates and suppliers BUT in saying that we have planned weddings with only a months notice / 6 months / 2 years. So whenever you are ready!
- Can I see the venues before deciding? Absoloutly! If you are coming over to Bali we can arrange to take you out to view venues OR we can arrange a virtual site visit for you where we video call you and walk you through the venues.
- What is the average cost of a Bali wedding? There will never be a “right answer” for this question as every couple has a different vision / budget / requirements and ideas. If I had to put a number on it I would say 300-400 Million IDR has been our average over the past 18 months for 50 guests. BUT Pre covid it was closer to 200 Million. This is not to say costs have doubled, our couples are just spending more and choosing different supplier’s and decor then previously. You could spend $15,000 or $150,000, the deciding factor on all costs comes down to YOUR choices along the way in all areas.
- Do my suppliers speak english? Some yes, some no! People facing suppliers such as Hair and Makeup, Photo and Video, Entertainment normally will. But “behind the scenes suppliers” such as Lighting, Dance floor, Sound, Furniture hire etc will mostly only speak Indonesian. Don’t worry, thats why you have us! We speak Indonesian so we manage this for you.
