Koro Films · Destination weddings in Thailand
A venue guide written by a wedding photo and film team, not a directory. Every resort, hotel and villa on this page is a place where we have photographed or filmed a real wedding — in Bangkok, on the beaches near the city, on the Andaman islands, in the Gulf and in the mountains of the north. Each one links to the couple’s story or film.

Thailand wedding venues
The best wedding venues in Thailand are the beachfront resorts of Hua Hin, Phuket, Khao Lak, Krabi and Koh Samui, the riverside and city hotels of Bangkok, and the mountain resorts of Chiang Mai and Khao Yai. This guide lists 101 venues where Koro Films has photographed or filmed a real wedding, grouped by region, with a link to each couple’s story. Wedding photography at these venues starts at 20,000 THB in Bangkok and 30,000 THB on the islands.
Thailand wedding venues (สถานที่จัดงานแต่งงานในประเทศไทย) fall into four groups. Bangkok has the five-star hotels, ballrooms and temples for Indian, Thai and city weddings. Hua Hin, Pattaya and Rayong are beach resorts 1.5 to 3 hours from the capital by road, so guests can land in Bangkok and drive. Phuket, Khao Lak, Krabi, Koh Lanta and Koh Samui are the island and Andaman destinations, a short flight away, with resorts and private villas on the sand. Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai and Khao Yai are the cool-season choices in the hills. Most of our couples fly in from abroad, and we work in English and Thai.

Bangkok wedding venues
The best wedding venues in Bangkok are the luxury hotels on the Chao Phraya River — Four Seasons, The Peninsula, Mandarin Oriental, Capella, Anantara Riverside and Shangri-La — and the city hotels with large ballrooms for Indian weddings, such as Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen’s Park, Anantara Siam, Siam Kempinski and InterContinental Bangkok. For a Thai ceremony, W Bangkok, U Sathorn and Shangri-La’s garden work well; for a Hindu temple wedding there is Dev Mandir Temple. We have photographed and filmed weddings at the 25 Bangkok venues below.
Riverside hotels give you the skyline at night, a boat arrival and outdoor terraces for the ceremony. City hotels on Sukhumvit, Ratchadamri and Sathorn give you the biggest ballrooms, which matters for a sangeet or a reception of 300 guests. Small and intimate weddings in Bangkok work best at garden venues such as The Botanical House, or on a hotel rooftop for a proposal. If you want a beach, the nearest real beach venues are in Hua Hin and Pattaya, covered in the next section.
Bangkok is the one destination with no travel fee: a one-day wedding in the city is covered from 20,000 THB for photos (4 hours, 2 photographers) and 30,000 THB for film. See our Bangkok wedding photographer guide, our list of wedding planners in Bangkok and the pre-wedding locations in Bangkok.


Beach wedding venues near Bangkok
The closest beach wedding venues to Bangkok are in Pattaya (1.5–2 hours by road), Hua Hin and Cha-am (2.5–3 hours) and Rayong (2.5–3 hours). Guests fly into Bangkok and transfer by car or van, with no second flight. Hua Hin has the most beachfront resorts we have worked at — 24 — from Sheraton and SO/ Sofitel to Dusit Thani and The Palayana, most of them hosting multi-day Indian weddings. Pattaya’s InterContinental, Centara Grand Mirage and Pullman host Sikh and Indian weddings; Rayong Marriott is the quiet choice. Our travel fee for all three is 5,000 THB per team.
Hua Hin is Thailand’s royal beach town, 2.5–3 hours south-west of Bangkok. Its resorts line a long, calm beach, with lawns for a mandap and ballrooms for the sangeet, and the best months are November to February. These are the Hua Hin and Cha-am venues where we have photographed or filmed a wedding:

Pattaya is the fastest beach to reach from Suvarnabhumi Airport: 1.5–2 hours by road. The resort beaches at Pratumnak, Wong Amat and Na Jomtien are quieter than the town, and the big resorts host 3–4 day Indian and Sikh weddings. Venues we have filmed at:

Island & Andaman wedding venues
Thailand’s island wedding venues are split between the Andaman coast — Phuket, Khao Lak, Krabi and Koh Lanta, best from November to April — and Koh Samui in the Gulf, best from January to April and June to September. Phuket has the widest choice of resorts and villas. Khao Lak is quieter and built for 3-day Indian weddings at JW Marriott, AVANI+ and Khao Lak Marriott. Krabi has Rayavadee under the Railay cliffs and Phulay Bay, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve. Koh Samui is the villa island, with Baan Kilee, Baan Puri and YL Residence on the west coast. We fly our team from Bangkok; the travel fee is 10,000 THB per team for Phuket, Krabi and Koh Lanta, and 14,000 THB (photo) plus 21,000 THB (film) for Koh Samui and Khao Lak.
Phuket is Thailand’s biggest wedding island, about 1.5 hours by plane from Bangkok. The west coast beaches — Mai Khao, Nai Yang, Bang Tao, Kamala, Karon — face the sunset, and the resorts range from JW Marriott and Angsana Laguna for large Indian weddings to Rosewood and COMO Point Yamu for Western couples. Venues we have photographed or filmed at:
Prices, films and planning tips: Phuket wedding guide →
Khao Lak is 1–1.5 hours by road north of Phuket airport: long, quiet west-facing beaches and big beachfront resorts a few steps apart, which is why most of the weddings we film here are Indian weddings over two or three days. Phang Nga Bay and Koh Hong are a boat ride away for pre-wedding shoots. Venues we have filmed at:
Prices, films and planning tips: Khao Lak & Phang Nga wedding guide →
Krabi is 1.5 hours by plane from Bangkok. Limestone cliffs rise straight out of the sea at Railay, and the resorts on Klong Muang and Tubkaek face west for sunset ceremonies. Venues we have filmed at:

Most of the Indian weddings we film run over two or three days at one resort, with a haldi in the garden, a baraat along the lawn, pheras at a mandap facing the sea and a sangeet or reception at night. The venues where we have done this most often are JW Marriott Khao Lak Resort & Spa and AVANI+ Khao Lak, Sheraton Hua Hin, SO/ Sofitel Hua Hin and The Palayana Hua Hin, InterContinental Pattaya, Angsana Laguna Phuket and JW Marriott Phuket, Phulay Bay in Krabi, and Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen’s Park in the city. Indian packages cover photo and film for 2–3 days from 220,000 THB; see our Indian wedding packages and Hindu wedding portfolio.
For 2 to 40 guests, private villas and small resorts work better than hotel ballrooms. On Koh Samui we have filmed villa weddings at Baan Kilee, Baan Puri, Praana Residence and YL Residence. In Hua Hin, Veranda Resort, The Yana Villas and Devasom host small beach weddings; in Pattaya, Sea Sand Sun Resort and Cape Dara; in Rayong, a beachfront café. In Bangkok, The Botanical House is a garden venue for a Western-style wedding. For a wedding of 2–20 guests we quote a custom price — email [email protected]. See our Western wedding portfolio.

The Andaman coast — Phuket, Khao Lak, Krabi, Koh Lanta — is dry from November to April and has its monsoon from May to October. Koh Samui in the Gulf is driest from January to April and again from June to September, with its wettest weather in October and November. Whatever the month, choose a venue with an indoor backup for the ceremony.

Yes. We are based in Bangkok and fly or drive to every destination on this page.

Start with the season and the coast: Andaman resorts for November to April, Koh Samui for January to April or June to September, Bangkok and Hua Hin for November to February. Then check how your guests will get there — by road from Bangkok, or with a second flight. Ask the venue for an indoor backup, the sunset direction for your ceremony, whether a mandap, fire ceremony or drone is allowed, and how many rooms both families need. Then send us the shortlist: if we have worked at the venue, we can tell you how the day usually runs there.
Popular resorts and the dry-season weekends go first, so many of our couples book 6–12 months ahead, and multi-day Indian weddings earlier still. Once you have a date and a venue, send them to us and we will hold the date with a deposit.
Yes. A legal marriage in Thailand is registered at a district office (amphur), and foreign couples normally need an affirmation of freedom to marry from their embassy, translated into Thai and legalised, before the registration. Many of our couples do the legal paperwork at home and hold the ceremony in Thailand. We are photographers, not lawyers, so confirm the current requirements with your embassy in Bangkok.
Private villas and small resorts: Baan Kilee, Baan Puri, Praana Residence and YL Residence on Koh Samui; Veranda Resort, The Yana Villas and Devasom in Hua Hin; Sea Sand Sun Resort and Cape Dara in Pattaya; a beachfront café in Rayong; and The Botanical House garden venue in Bangkok. For a wedding of 2–20 guests that needs only 2 cinematographers, email [email protected] for a custom price.
Yes, if your venue allows it — most beach resorts do with notice, and some city hotels and national parks do not. Drone footage is 5,000 THB extra.
Yes. Our live streaming team can stream your ceremony for family who cannot travel, as we have done at Capella Bangkok, The Sukhothai, InterContinental Pattaya, YL Residence Samui and Le Méridien Khao Lak.
Yes. We work in English and Thai, and most of our couples fly in from abroad.
