Dream Wedding Hotel or Riverside Venue?

When prospective brides and grooms start planning their wedding, a big question many couples face is Should we hold the event at a hotel or a riverside venue? Both options have their pros and cons. Today, RARIN will provide a clear overview and guidance to help you choose what truly suits your heart.

Hosting Your Wedding at a Hotel
 
Highlights

• Comfortable air conditioning throughout the event
• Convenient for elderly guests, especially those with mobility issues
• On-site accommodation, suitable for guests from out of town or abroad
• Located in the city, easy to travel, often near BTS/MRT
• Luxurious decor and LED screens

Disadvantages

• Ballroom style is classic (square rooms, standard hotel lighting), resulting in repetitive photos
• Food prices are quite high, starting from 1,500++ THB
• Requires coordination with many parties such as florists, photographers, sound and light crews, cakes, etc., which may incur additional import fees
• Limited special activities; for example, many hotels do not allow fireworks, water features, or outdoor ceremonies

Riverside Event Venue
 
Good Atmosphere, Truly Our Event

Highlights

• High level of privacy. The entire building is exclusively allocated for your event, right from the entrance

• High flexibility in event arrangements, such as using waterfall fireworks, allowing pets during important moments. There are fewer time and other restrictions compared to hotels

• Architectural design structured according to the wedding timeline, providing diverse photo opportunities for each ceremony stage

• Suitable for events that desire a special feeling, not just a ceremony, but a truly unique memory

Limitations

• No on-site accommodation (but nearby hotels like Avani Riverside are just 10 minutes away)
• Not directly connected to the Skytrain (BTS) (but easily accessible from Rama 3 / Charoenkrung / Sathorn)
