Luxury Honeymoon in Thailand

Dec18

Part 2 in our Honeymoon Series, we’re exploring your Luxury Honeymoon in Thailand

AWAY SuitcaseThe possibility of a Luxury Honeymoon in Thailand is definitely doable on a moderate budget. 5 star accommodations are something you’ve only dreamed of and for a premier experience, why not order a butler as well? What do you do with a butler?

Let me explain these luxury Honeymoon opportunities in terms of their categories. Boutique Hotels are smaller and feel more quaint while offering all regular hotel amenities also. Hotels are well…. Hotels. Resorts are where you wander the grounds and enjoy all the custom-created, local-type aspects.

THAILAND HONEYMOON, BOUTIQUE HOTEL

Welcome to 137 Pillars House, Chiang Mai…
137 Pillars House GardenYou step back in time to the 1800’s where life was simpler and people were most gracious. You’re greeted with an incredible welcome drink as staff buzzes around you to take care of your every need. When escorted to your room, your first experience is through the beautifully maintained gardens that open up to a central park feel… and right there in the middle sits the beautiful, authentic namesake on its original 137 pillars.

 

137 Pillars House Piana Bar137 Pillars House is more than only its beautiful boutique hotel environment with outstanding amenities and indoor/outdoor private showers (a personal favorite of mine). It’s about the staff, the food, the bartender and the amazing way you feel relaxed when you sit back and get pampered. At any point during the day you will feel like there is always someone at the ready to assist you with anything you might need. This luxury you’ve purchased is about a transformation in yourself as well.

137 Pillars House PoolYou’ll find yourself quickly adapting to being able to simply look over your shoulder to signal a charming server to come over and immediately inquire of your needs. Each room comes with a Butler that speaks your language and is available at any time to make recommendations, reservations or even help translate to a driver that doesn’t speak English (we’ve tested all 3 of these concepts many times.

Don’t get too used to this  because as at some point you’ll need to go home and your new spouse is not a butler.

THAILAND HONEYMOON, RESORT

Sarojin Resort, Khao Lak…
The Sarojin ResortThe Sarojin Resort is a piece of paradise just waiting for a romantic honeymooner! Situated right on the beach, you might wonder why you’d go from your beach wedding on Maui to a honeymoon on the Andaman Sea. From a visual standpoint, the water and sky are completely different colors. The sea is saltier than the Pacific Ocean and the coral reefs look more like exploding mushrooms than Maui’s hidden onyx-style underwater gems.

At the Sarojin you’ll find between 130-250 staff just waiting to make sure your stay is romantic and memorable… and you’ll swear you only saw a dozen people… that’s how they encourage your intimacy 🙂

The Sarojin romanceThe staff is trained to share information to help you not have to ask for the same thing twice – whether that’s to keep an ice chest filled with ice in your room at all times, or to never offer you a food that you are allergic to. From that first sip of your tasty welcome drink, you will know that you are in paradise. A perfect place for newlyweds to unwind  and reconnect on your luxury honeymoon after the faster pace of your Maui wedding with all your family and friends.

Luxury HoneymoonThis luxury doesn’t come cheap and you will definitely feel the intimacy of your well-spent funds. Their goal is to be there when you need them, provide you with outstanding food at any time of day and to aid you with romance ideas, surprises and personalized experiences in the Takua Pa District… then they step back into the shadows and allow you the most relaxing, intimate experience of your life.

Enjoy a romantic dinner on the beach for 2 with hundreds of candles and a Chef cooking there beside you. Take a tour of a floating village and have every aspect upgraded to luxury on the tour (they even bring the water bottles and towels from the resort!) Walk the beach, collect shells, fall into a heap on the sand and watch the sun set.

However you choose to spend your luxury honeymoon, please remember to watch your surroundings and most importantly enjoy each other. The point of a luxury honeymoon is to take time to simply “be” with each other and let others take care of your day-to-day needs. You’ll have plenty of time for others when you get back.

THAILAND HONEYMOON, HOTEL…

Empress Premier Suites, Chiang Mai…
Empress Hotel Executive SuiteEmpress Hotel PoolLocated in a fun walking part of Chiang Mai, you’ll be just outside of the historical Old Town and therefore a bit quieter, less touristy and nicer for an evening stroll. You’re still only 7 minutes by car and 15 minutes walking to the exotic rush that is Chiang Mai. Every evening the streets adjacent to the hotel come alive with food vendors and souvenir stalls. There are top TripAdvisor restaurants located just around the corner.

Empress Hotel GiftsAt first blush this 9.8 rated hotel doesn’t seem like it can compare with others in the 5 star rating class… no bellman to greet you or to help with your luggage and no welcome drink to speak of; however the front of house staff is full of smiles and go the extra mile to assist you if they can. This is definitely a “hotel stay” and not a Boutique hotel or “resort experience”; however, the Manager on Duty graciously presented us with a bag full of local treats and escorted us to our suite. She then found a bellboy to bring up our belongings as she demonstrated the suite’s features.

Empress Premier SuitesThe pool area offers a nice water feature to drown out any ambient street noise from 5 flights below. The bar is staffed with colorfully dressed pool boys to create a concoction just right for every drinker or non-drinker’s taste. Your food can be delivered pool-side and the best part of it all – there is shade! Shade might be the last thing you think of on day one, but after a bit of time in Thailand, you too will begin to welcome the opportunity to pop into the shade for a few minutes while remaining pool-side.

The suites in this hotel are very clean, spacious and well-equipped – perfect for those wanting to bring street food back home to eat or for those honeymooners that never want to leave the room and select 24 hour room service instead. As far as hotels go, this one checks all the boxes.

__________

It has been our experience overall that Boutique Hotels offer the best combination of personalized service, luxury amenities and best overall stay in the luxury accommodations world. You’re also welcome to email us if you have Honeymoon Planning Questions. Aloha!

From a Client’s perspective:

“Alison said…

Darci and Penny, Where do I start?!

I was never the girl that dreamed about their fairytale wedding growing up. I never imagined my perfect wedding dress, hair style or decor. Not to Imply that I never thought it would happen one day, it was just not something I pictured as a little girl.

When Rob and I got engaged, I had NO IDEA where to even start! I joined all of the bridal email list to hopefully gain some clarity. It didn’t work, lol. Overwhelmed doesn’t even begin to touch on how I was feeling.

After Rob and I decided that we would “elope” in Maui, it got even more overwhelming. How was I supposed to plan our wedding 4,605 miles away. I googled so many companies. I almost chose a different company until they sent me a sample wedding video. It made me cringe.

I started focusing more on the reviews of these companies. I came across Aloha Maui Dream Weddings and loved the reviews I was reading. I reached out one night and the planning began.

We put 100% blind trust in these women solely based on social proof and that is why I hope anyone reading this, that might be on the fence, chooses AMDW!

From the start, Darci put my mind at ease. She was readily available for me whenever I wanted to talk, even with a 6hour time difference and anytime I started to panic, she would bring me back to normal and reassure that everything would be great! She scheduled our marriage license appt, she linked me up with Bea from Classic Elegance Artistry who made me feel like a princess and she made sure every single detail was perfect! We had an awesome unity sand ceremony that included my son, who also got a Lei during the Lei exchange.

These 2 ladies then hiked almost a MILE down a cliff to accommodate a photo shoot that we really, really wanted. It was hot and uncomfortable but once we were down there, Penny was in her zone. She is so professional and so good at what she does. I could not have asked for more from these two!

For the little girl who never dreamed about her wedding day, If I had, I am POSITIVE it was exactly how June 29th 2018 went.

We are glad to have you both as our Ohana now! We love you!
Mahalo!

P.S. Small or large weddings! They will get it done for you!”

“I went online to look for a wedding planner in Maui. The variety of packages offered by Aloha Maui Dream Weddings is what first caught my attention. I called the phone number and talked to Darci on the phone. I knew immediately that I had found the right person to help us plan our sunset beach wedding. Darci made our wedding a fun and totally stress-free event. Penny Palmer Photography Team took beautiful pictures of our wedding. Darci and Penny are a great team, and made our wedding a totally comfortable and fun event. And they also helped us with questions we had about things to do while we were in Maui. We plan to go back to celebrate anniversaries in the future, and we will call these gals when we are there. Darci and Penny are friends for life!“

Dreaming of Eloping on Maui

Nov17

Dreaming of eloping on Maui (and ticking off some bucket list additions)?

CLICK HERE TO READ OUR REVIEWS

eloping on mauiThere is a reason the Hawaiian people say “Maui No Ka Oi!” (Maui is the Best!).  It’s because it just is! It’s the reason why Oprah and many other highly visible individuals choose Maui as the place to escape to paradise. It’s the reason once you visit, you will forever long to return. The spirit of Aloha will remain in your heart long after your feet are back on home soil and will never quite leave you.

What better idea than eloping on Maui…

2016 vow renewalThe term ‘bucket list’ became popular a few years back and there’s a reason we should all make one.

Not only in the way that you need to tick off items before you shuffle off this mortal coil, but in the way of making lasting memories that will make your heart sing every time you remember them. Romance, love, incredible sights, sounds and smells… that timeless elegance of gorgeous sand and gentle waves… Eloping on Maui is the chance of a lifetime to say “I do” in the purest beauty of the Pacific  Ocean…  experience the wonder that delights so many already!

Eloping on Maui and Making Memories

Life is about making memories, not ‘who dies with the most toys wins’.  Go make a bunch of them!

Maui offers much for the ‘ticker of the bucket list’:

… from lazing on a pristine beach
… to peeking into the lives of some amazing sea life
… to thrill-seeking activities to wake up that adrenaline
… to the most stunning drive that you will see in many-a-lifetime.

Things to do in Maui 2016Spend a day on the Road to Hana.

elopement packages mauiGo whale watching if you’re here in the winter!  Humpback whales make Maui their regular home and seeing these gentle giants is a once in a lifetime treat. Their smaller pals, the dolphins, also like to show themselves for your viewing pleasure and I know that watching these crazy clowns frolic definitely ticked off one of my list inclusions.

Likewise, Maui’s beautiful turtles, though not as large, are just as majestic and swimming with these beauties will fill your soul with a sense of calm. Check out a cleaning station or the turtle highway. Float on the surface and watch them feed or play.

Even just swimming through the warm clear waters without the company of any sea creatures is still one of the most delightful things to do. The clouds above reflecting on the surf… breathtaking.

maui vow renewal 2016If getting your heart pumping is more your style, then why not book yourself in for a zipline adventure. Maui offers choices from the kid friendly to soaring 90 ft above a canyon. It’s most definitely a different way to see this beautiful land and though it’s not on my list, for many of you it will be right up there (no pun intended!)

But maybe just slipping that ring on your wife’s finger and declaring your undying love will be adventure enough.

Exciting new Maui Wedding Ideas for 2018! Follow the trend of the Islands!

2018 Maui wedding ideas don’t have to be limited because you’re having a destination wedding in Hawaii. Stretch your imagination and work with our talented team. Explore some of these 2018 Maui Wedding ideas yourself!

Beach Attire:

Maui Wedding ideasOur researchers anticipate that 2018 Maui Weddings will bring back the elegance in beach attire! As we approach the second half of 2017, casual-chic beach attire is ramping up.  2015 showed us tuxedos on the beach… 2016 went the opposite direction with the return of khaki pants and white button up shirts. 2017 brought in a nice mix of bow ties, colored pants, formal dresses and matching colors for guest attire. 2018 is expected to continue this wave of beach fashion with more mauve, burgandy and vintage Hawaiian colors.

2016 Maui Wedding ideasMake your wedding a notch above the rest by adding a subtle flair that denotes your personalities. It’s not simply about the bride anymore.  Another great Maui wedding idea- make a statement in your Maui wedding photos!

 

Maui Wedding Ideas: Ceremony

Maui wedding venuesSpice up your Maui Beach Wedding with the addition of a dove release or monarch butterfly release. Want a way to have your special guests feel included in the ceremony? Why not have them each release a butterfly or ask a parent to read a poem during your ceremony? Have someone with musical experience? Why not invite someone to sing at your wedding? Work with our amazing musicians to get just the right sound for your ambiance. A perfectly timed poem or scripture reading by someone dear to your heart can really elevate your wedding.

Maui Wedding Ideas: Reception

Maui Wedding CakesRather than ordering a wedding cake along with table centerpieces, why not order smaller wedding cakes and display them AS your centerpieces? It not only carries your theme throughout the room and allows for  quite the conversation pieces, but also allows you to stretch your budget for other exciting reception ideas. Imagine the intimacy it would bring when you and your spouse circulate toward the end of the evening and cut the first piece of each cake with those guests at the table. Your guests would feel your one-on-one attention and remember how unique you were to do that with them.

Donut CakeNot feeling the traditional wedding cake? Why not vote for a caramelized fruit tart, cupcake cake or a tiered donuts cake? 2016 Maui Weddings will have a number of fresh new, innovative choices for culinary delights.

 

Maui weddings CakesAmazing new bakers and culinary artists have been breaking into the scene this year, as well as tried-and-true shops stretching their creative boundaries. All this in preparation for a brighter, sweeter 2018! Pictures printed on rice paper with edible ink… bamboo twigs made of frosting… decorations of spun sugar and local florals.

Let your imagine flow or let our design team advise you. We can take any Maui wedding idea and make it into a dream wedding!
