Being from the UK originally and now residing in NZ meant marrying my Kiwi partner could potentially have become a logistical nightmare until we made one of the best decision of our lives and that is using Anna & Natalie to help us organise our 'half way' wedding in Thailand.
After extensive research on Thailand we knew finding a wedding coordinator was a certainty to ensure all of our guests from the UK and NZ were given all the information and help they needed. From our very first exchange on email we had a good feeling. After all they do say it’s the bride that makes most of the decisions and who better to help her than 2 female coordinators - a dream come true!
Initially having Natalie based in the UK & Anna in Australia gave us the added advantage of having a coordinator on both continents and reading emails on both time zones so a reply was always received quickly. Throughout the entire planning process the communication was clear, pricing was supplied in both currencies (huge help!) and there was vast amounts of choice for every aspect of our wedding. Follow up phone calls were made at every major decision and it was a pleasure to talk to Anna & Natalie - they helped you believe all your dreams were coming true.
The final selection for hotels, flowers, menus, cocktails and timing were perfect. Two hotels were selected to meet the budget needs of guests and these were ideally located in North Chaweng Beach, which is definitely the best part, being only a few steps apart yet still within easy walking distance of the shops, bars & restaurants made them the perfect choice. The reputation of Anna & Natalie at the resorts precedes them and although we knew our wedding trip was going to be special, we didn't realise we would feel like a King & Queen for our entire time on Koh Samui.
Our Wedding Day could not have been more perfect - the team in Thailand were extremely efficient. Our entire wedding was set up right on the beach with a stunning back drop. The ceremony area was a spectacular sight to see with flowers so stunning and unbelievably just for us! The food & drinks - well what can we say. The canapés & cocktails were amazing - attention to detail was the highest level with the Pina Colada pineapple decoration even being heart shapes. The wedding banquet was cooked & served to us right on the beach, guests said it was some of the best Thai food ever tasted. Our photographer, Laurent, was incredible, he worked so hard to get us such amazing shots whilst being very friendly yet professional.
There was one small hiccup but it was dealt with after just one short email - what more could we ask for.
All of our guests have said it was the best wedding they have been to - this would not have been possible without Anna & Natalie's vast knowledge of Koh Samui, excellent recommendations and the service we received.
We have no hesitations in recommending "Take Us To Thailand" to be your first stop when organising a wedding in Thailand.
