Begin your journey of togetherness at InterContinental Bali Resort. Here, the place where your hearts lead you is the place where you should say "I DO." You will be enchanted by the exotic ambience of our gorgeous garden venue, with its smooth velvety lawn complemented by the sound of birdsong and the ocean waves. This peaceful open-air setting captures the cool sea breeze together with the warmth and charm of the tropics, while showcasing the Resort's ability to blend Western ideas and style with the island's magical ambience and natural décor.

Depending on the designated time of day for your wedding, preparations will begin either early in the morning or in the early afternoon with bridal hair-styling and make-up in a specially allocated room, followed by a photo session with a professional photographer. Carrying a bouquet of white frangipani flowers with a boutonniere to match, you might just choose to arrive in a traditional wooden cart pulled by a pony, before greeting your guests at the romantic wedding garden. Here, ceremonial chairs will be set up for your guests and the venue might be adorned with a gateway of freshly woven green palm fronds, stunning tropical flower arrangements of, perhaps, fragrant white lilies, and a carpet of frangipani blossoms or rose petals. Each of your guests will be given a welcome drink and a copy of the wedding liturgy, and the celebrant – a minister of your chosen religion – will then conduct your wedding ceremony. Your rings will be presented on a special ring pillow and you will be invited to exchange your vows in the shade of a huge and beautiful tree as the music and wedding song of your choice is performed live by an organ player and singer. Then, as you kiss and tread a bridal pathway scented with the sweet aroma of flower blossoms, you will be showered with yet more petals by your guests and two Balinese flower girls dressed in traditional costume. Now, you can drink a Champagne toast to your future, cut your wedding cake and participate in a group photo session. You will then depart in your traditional horse-drawn carriage, or if you prefer, a vintage VW Beetle or a vintage Vespa decorated with white balloons, and pose for more photos on Jimbaran's idyllic golden-sand beach. At the end of the ceremony you will be given a commemorative wedding certificate and an original wedding gift from InterContinental Bali Resort. You can also enjoy the services of your wedding coordinator (Japanese, if required) and a wedding butler.
