One Mumbai-based planning office accountable for the whole island wedding — venue, villas and off-property blocks, the marquee build, Indian caterers, decor freight, permits and guest movement — under a single flat-fee plan, so a Thai beach wedding stays calm, clear and exactly as intended.
Before you commit, we confirm whether Vana Belle truly fits your guest count. Its strength is the island's biggest beach marquee plus private-pool villas for the inner circle — but with around eighty keys, a 250+ guest wedding lives or dies on the off-property room-block plan. We set that expectation honestly and in writing.
We request and compare the resort's best available rates, buyout terms and room-block terms for your dates — no inflated middleman pricing, subject to the venue's confirmation.
With ~79–80 private-pool villas, we decide with you whether to take an exclusive-use buyout for the wedding core and block vetted nearby hotels for the wider list, or keep a tighter in-resort celebration — and we keep families grouped either way.
We plan the portable beach marquee build (cost, setup days, weather rigging and a wet-weather plan), target a dry Gulf-season date, and secure the beach-ceremony permit and sound cut-off so the mandap and reception are never left to chance.
We coordinate licensed outside Indian/Jain caterers or a tailored in-resort menu, halal/Jain/satvik kitchens, decor and mandap freight from India, and the baraat, dhol and sangeet production that a Samui resort does not do in-house.
Our planning fee stays separate from vendor billing, and we take a limited number of weddings each month for senior, hands-on attention across two countries.
A varied set of settings down the hillside to the beach — the resort's headline is a large portable marquee on the sand, balanced by the intimate waterfall Secret Pond and a clutch of restaurant and garden spaces. Exact seated capacities depend on layout, dancefloor and the marquee build; we confirm with the resort for your guest count.
One natural way a 3–4 day Indian beach wedding can run across the resort. We tailor the exact flow to your functions, guest count, the tides and the season.

Samui is an island, so flights, the airport transfer, on-resort villa fit, off-property room blocks and the monsoon date all need a plan from Mumbai. We run all of it.
