Bali Weddings International, Whatever the bride dreams - we’ll deliver
(June 2007)

In itself a clever marriage of Indonesian and Australian tourism and business expertise, Bali Weddings International (BWI) is today Bali’s biggest, best known and best-respected wedding event organiser.

Speak with BWI co-founder Katrina Simorangkir and it’s no surprise why literally thousands of couples have chosen her and her experienced team of western consultants to handle that once in a lifetime special day since BWI was first engaged to manage a wedding ceremony in 1992.

According to Australian-born Katrina, a strong understanding of exactly what the astute international romantic travel market requires and the capacity to provide the right product has ensured BWI remains at the forefront of Bali’s highly-lucrative and ever-growing romantic travel business.

“The keystone of our success over the last 17 years has been our ability to be able to both identify and deliver exactly what it is our clients perceive as being the ultimate, unforgettable romantic travel experience,” she said.

“And of course there’s our impeccable attention to detail which we apply to every facet of every single event we handle.

“We can manage everything from legal requirements, entertainers, button holes and bouquets to the bride’s mother’s hair or organising the photographer – basically everything required to ensure a perfect day.”

Headquartered in Sanur where the company operates a purpose-built, one-stop 'Bali Bridal Boutique' complete with reception, lounge and change rooms, BWI has assembled an impressive selection of wedding, vow renewal and commitment ceremonies designed to suit every taste and budget, no matter the requirement.

Event venues too, many of which also double to provide the perfect accommodation solution for bridal parties and their guests, have been finely selected and offer couples a myriad of choices.

The list is huge - from colourful, tropical gardens and spectacular cliff top locations to an exclusive secluded forest hideaway and a traditional Balinese ‘Puri’ (nobleman’s residence).

The company’s choice of venues also extends to several deluxe beachside hotels, resorts and private villas in Bali – and further afield to nearby Nusa Lembongan and Lombok – where BWI and its partners have combined resources to offer a series of very excusive ‘value-added’ package arrangements.

“We are in good position to be able to offer our clients everything they require - from the simple to sumptuous,” Katrina said.

“Private villa accommodation in particular offers a very special level of privacy and supreme personal service not often available in other accommodation.

“Villa accommodation also represents excellent value for money when sharing costs with a few friends or family members.

“For example a three-bedroom villa shared between six people can cost as little as USD$55.00* per person per night while a six-bedroom villa with it's own mini-gym and everything else you could possibly want, can be had for around USD70.00* per person per night. “

“As you can see, BWI can provide all the answers, we offer expert advice and assistance as part of our overall service and we base our success on 17 years of unbroken experience.

“More to the point, we fully understand exactly what it is any couple needs to ensure that very special, unforgettable day remains just that – truly special and truly unforgettable.”
