RAZZELL Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) A mate is getting married next year in Bangkok and has asked my opinion for a venue. The traditional bit will be done "up-country"...now he's looking for a hotel in Bangkok to have the reception in....as I believe is the norm (although any other suggestions will be gratefully received ) The attendees will be lower middle-class Thais. Some have jobs at the airports, some are office workers with the odd Thammasat grad and lower-ranking policeman, soldier and sailor, thrown in for good measure. Probably less than 20 "farangs" will be present with the grand total between 50-100, more likely around 75. I think he wants to spend around 250,000-300,000 for the "buffet" etc. So, I take it The Four Seasons, Peninsula, Sukhothai etc are out of the equation Finally, in brief, approximately 75 people, mainly Thai, nothing too "hi-so" due to make-up of the guests and budget, but hopefully somewhere where the room and surroundings have a touch of class or style. Perhaps Riverside or with attractive gardens? Tough one...but any ideas? RAZZ Edited January 14, 2011 by soundman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAZZELL Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 I just thought, is a large restaurant suitable too? RAZZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirk0233 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Try Swissotel Nai Lert Park Bangkok. I have seen some very nice receptions there. Don't know the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAZZELL Posted January 14, 2011 Author Share Posted January 14, 2011 I've just been told the centre of Bangkok is out as the traffic is too bad and no-one will go...Also, how will they drive home from there when they're drunk? So, hotel, golf club or restaurant in northern Bangkok, near Rangsit or Don Mueang. This place? http://www.ramagardenshotel.com/index.html RAZZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantilley Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Bankok Hilton, Would probably be a similar price to the above "out of the equation" venues I imagine, assuming you mean the Millennium Hilton near the river. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gippy Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 The Miracle Grand near Don Mueang seems to do 10 weddings every day. http://www.miraclegrandhotel.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaihome Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 The Miracle Grand near Don Mueang seems to do 10 weddings every day. http://www.miraclegrandhotel.com/ If they insist on Northern Bangkok, Miracle Grand is the place. Can’t think of any other. Maybe the Airport Amari? TH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've stayed at the Amari and I thought it was a bit "old-fashioned"...but I suppose a tarted-up room will look good despite the surroundings.
