How to Plan a Beach Wedding Malaysia

admin
Beach

For beach wedding, it is recommended to take the hotel packages as they have the facilities and resources to organize a complete beach wedding ceremony and reception.

1. Wedding Package

The wedding packages usually include beach wedding essentials like decorations for the ceremonial altar, petal aisle, welcome signage, pre-ceremony refreshments, wedding cake, romantic dinner for the couple and so on.

2. Wedding Planner

Beach resorts have their own wedding planners for the basic services, and customized services at additional cost. If you require additional decorations and services you can always hire an external wedding planner:

MY Wedding Planner | Services: Destination/ beach wedding planning, Assist in performing registration of marriage in Malaysia for example between two different nationalities, obtain the relevant endorsements, conduct a wedding ceremony with certification from JPN.

Hanngevent Langkawi Wedding Planner | FB Page – Plan all kinds of beach weddings; grand, religious or fun.

3. Officiant/ Celebrant

Selected resorts provide a Celebrant (not marriage registrar) to solemnize the wedding. For the JPN registrar representative to be present to conduct the registration of marriage, special arrangements have to be made (by yourself or a wedding planner).

4. Where?

The popular ones are:

Langkawi – West coast of Peninsular Malaysia, by flight or ferry from Kuala Kedah
