TRAVEL
If you’ve been dreaming of a wedding where turquoise seas meet golden sunsets, TUI’s latest addition to its destination wedding portfolio could be your perfect match. In April 2025, the travel giant announced that Thailand would join the Maldives in its growing Asian wedding collection, offering couples more choice than ever in planning their once-in-a-lifetime celebration. The timing couldn’t be more fitting: the country is riding high on global attention thanks to TV series The White Lotus, has just legalised same-sex marriages and is fast becoming one of the world’s most romantic escapes. Couples can say ‘I do’ in a traditional service or opt for a Thai blessing against a backdrop of white-sand beaches, lush landscapes and world-class hospitality. And with direct flights to Phuket exclusively with TUI Airways, the journey to your dream day is as seamless as the ceremony itself. Choose from six handpicked luxury resorts in Phuket and Khao Lak - Amari Phuket, Cape Panwa Hotel, Apsara Beachfront Resort & Villa, JW Marriott Khao Lak Resort & Spa, Barcelo Coconut Island Phuket and Novotel Phuket Kamala Beach, each of which have TUI’s expert wedding specialists and on-site coordinators on hand to turn every detail into a memory that lasts a lifetime.
