diamond_dog Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Hey guys, Have been to Thaliand a heap of times. Just engaged to get married to my Irish girlfriend. Have been looking into a few places in Samui. It's hard to decipher all the bullshit. I know Samui is expensive but some of the prices seem like they are taking advantage of stupid farang. Has anyone any experiences of getting married in Samui or has any advice. Looking to pay about 1000- 1500 bt a head for food. With a beautiful setting. All advice or input is welcome and much appreciated. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigt3365 Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 How about we move this over to the Samui Forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mufcsamui Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 I recently attended a wedding at this location http://samuihotels.impiana.com/ and it was perfect (although it has to be said the weather was perfect on the day) you should send them an email with your requirements, I cannot be sure of the cost but i believe it is within your budget..

H2oDunc Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 It may be in their budget for food but once you factor in all the other charges they make for holding the wedding there I very much doubt it. My friend from the UK was given a quote for there last year. Nice place but far from reasonable PM sent to OP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beano2274 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Don't forget your "Affirmations to Marry", and the running around that you will have to do before you can legally marry in Thailand, a few days will be required in Bangkok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beano2274 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 I will be doing the ceremony in March to a Thai, 50,000 for the religious ceremony with the Monks, and under 100,000 for the food, cheap but good. (Just outside Bangkok). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESB7 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Just a thought........when I married in Thailand it was at the Tessaban and cost 180 Baht.........doing the reception thing later this year. If the OP gets married at a hotel, would they need it registered with certificates translated to English etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beano2274 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 All Marriages require registering, does not matter where (the hotel gets someone to the the Juristic person). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you I think I know whose wedding you are talking about If you supply your own drinks and pay corkage it will make the package more affordable.
