Get Hitched in Thailand, where ‘The White Lotus’ is located Season 3

Thailand wants to become the hottest destination on planet Earth – it can be already.

Of course, this is thanks to a large HBO, which set the third season of their completely popular appearance, “White Lotus”, in the house of the white elephant.

If the first two season, which attracts the armies of tourists who designate aircraft to Maui and Sicily, are bankrupt precedents, the last setting of the show, Resort Four Season Resorts at Isle of Koh Samui will be reserved for the coming years.

Between July and October, Thai booked increased 34%; By January they increased 312% year by year, according to the travel agency. Thai Tourism Thai is even waiting for a website dedicated to the “White Lotus” trip, and the planners and wedding resorts report that Thailand is on the lips of any fried bride and the marriage of Groom sex in January).

But don’t worry, now, if you rush, a “white lotus” wedding that will be the envy of your high school enemy is still possible.

“When Michael White came inside, he fell in love at first glance,” said JJ, the general manager of four seasons Samui of the play maker. “Quiet transmission, it’s very intimate. There is so much intimacy and lush landscape. Is a very romantic place. “

JJ says he does not expect the lottery to sell for weddings or to be reserved for the honeymoon until after the premiere on Sunday, February. 16. By then, everything is on the table.

“It is a truly cinematic resort and people will want to come and create their own” lotus “moments, said JJ, from the resort on Thailand’s second largest island.” They will get married in the residence where A special scene was shot and there will be a full moon holiday with their guuses, as in the show. “

But the first thing is the first, you will want everyone’s resort for yourself. After all, there are only 60 villas and 11 inhabitants. What costs it depends on the time, but in the high season they think approximately $ 2,500 per night per villa, and $ 5,000 per night for the largest multibedomas.

Will what will this take you? Start with a day’s 1’s reception at the “Lotus White” bar, as JJ calls it (we are assuming some small screen actions should be placed there). After a few cocktails, cut a special barbecue on the beach. The next morning your whole holiday will have a private breakfast in a specially secluded place created for weddings, named in the beach house – this is also where your ceremony will happen.

“Day 2 is a dinner at our Thai Restaurant with Michelin stars-after that is our party after,” JJ says, mentioning that resorting can add local aroma bringing a monk for a Thai blessing ceremony. Of course, the most intimate (and affordable) “I do” are also possible.

Arriving there is a Cinc with direct flights from NYC to Singapore, which offers links to Koha Samui. But JJ recommends starting your stay in Bangkok, instead, create a four -season Lotus White circuit.

“The beauty of the ‘white lotus’ that is happening in Koha Samui is that four season has a resort in Chiang Mai, a tense camp in Chiang Rai and a hotel in Bangkok for a metropolitan experience,” he said.

Add them to your Thai adventure and you will be very trendy. The interest in Thailand’s ultrahigh hides is blooming. Formerly a low -cost bastion for crust back and party animals, it has become much more harmful. Wellness is the word word and resorts are competing to increase in mass in an attempt to seduce a more cordial (and richer) guest. So when time Samui will inevitably reserve, you will break down for the “Lotus White” duplicates.

The most obvious of which is, of course, Phuket, zero on Earth for Thailand’s conscious regrand. This lush, tropical island is loaded with “White Lotus” views (and real thing: the place of shooting tools in the anantara Mai Khao Phuket Villas).

“We are seeing open restaurants that are on a different level than plastic chairs and local Thai food we had in the past. Now, there are art galleries and shops; Muchta much more interesting.”

Andy Kunz, Managing Director at Como Point Yamu in Phuket.

But there is more to have a Thai wedding than to secure a TV-Glam place.

“You can have a ceremony, but you have to go to the city and get all proven,” said Andy Kunz, managing director at 106 Como Point Yamu rooms in Phuket. “So they are mostly people who are already married to come for a symbolic ceremony.”

Indeed, legally, married in Thailand you will need to enroll the union with a local amphur. It may take several days, according to the US Embassy – and not recommended.

However, Kunz waited 45 weddings last year and has 34 books already for 2025 at the East Coast resort overlooking the Andaman Sea. He has awakened the country’s largest island evolving into a hearth of luxury that is attracting so many couples today.

“We are seeing open restaurants that are at a different level than plastic chairs and local Thai food we had in the past,” he said. Now, there are art galleries and cafes; Much is much more interesting. “

One last point: don’t marry the idea of ​​a marriage on the beach. Look for higher land, where views are more dynamic, memorable and, Ahem, cinematic.

“We’re raised a little,” said Kunz, “at the top of the cape. We have views of the sea with 360 degrees. Likes like being on your island.”
