Holiday Inn Resort Phi Phi Island

As the resort holds only one wedding per day, it is recommended to book your wedding two – three month in advance to allow thorough planning. Bridal couples should inform reservations of their tentative dates as soon as possible.

Although a minimum stay is not necessarily required, it would be better if the wedding couple stays four or five nights and arrive at least two days prior to the ceremony. This allows time to rest and relax and to feel comfortable with the resort and the staff before the important day. The Master of Ceremony will meet and explain step by step the custom of Thai wedding with a private rehearsal (bride and groom only) the day before.

Prior to arrival the resort needs certifying letters or documents from your respective embassy (ies) translated into Thai indicating the following:
 

• Affirmation of freedom to marry and your wish to get married in Thailand with personal details such as your name, address, nationality, place and date of birth, parent's names and nationality.
• Proof of annulment or Divorce document if married previously.
• Any other documents you might need or feel are relevant for the good process of the wedding.

If requested, a local government official of Krabi province will officially register the wedding on the island and requires your passports at that time.

Usually the wedding events are held in the open air on the beach towards late afternoon and are approximately one hour long, followed by cocktail reception at the hilltop Sunset Satay Bar which offers a breathtaking view of the setting sun on the Andaman Sea. Dinner and dancing follow later in the evening.
