FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The best time to marry in Bali is any time depending on your priorities. Year round weddings are not a problem in Bali. However there are some conditions that you would need to consider prior to planning the wedding date as it may affect your travel plans and the wedding cost. Such conditions are the weather, peak season, Nyepi Day and its festival the day before.
Indonesia (Bali) has only a dry and a wet season. The dry season is from May to October and the wet season is from November to April. The weather in Bali is hot and humid but the humidity and rain increase during the wet season. However, the wet season does not mean torrential downpours all day every day. Even when it rains, it is usually only for a short while and it is often followed by sunny clear skies. During the dry season, coastal areas normally experience nice breeze in the evening.
As the dry season in Bali is generally considered the best time to visit, so it is the peak season especially August, as well as Christmas and New Year. Accommodation, travel cost, and wedding venues are normally more expensive during this period and they can get fully booked months in advance.
This is the 24-hour of silence. Nyepi Day signifies the start of the Saka New Year in Bali and it is a day of silence, reflection, fasting and meditation for the Balinese. Airport is closed on this day, no one is allowed on the streets or beaches, no taxi, and all businesses close. Bali is essentially shut down. For this full 24 hours, everyone is expected to remain inside and no noise is permitted.
If you are into avoiding the wet season and the peak season in Bali, we definitely recommend May, June, September, or October as the best months for the wedding as these months are still dry and warm during the day but cooler in the evening. Also most of the wedding venues are available at their lower rates.
However, if you do option for the wet season for the wedding, do not worry, we are more than happy to assist you with the backup plan.
