A few days together in Bali.
A note from us
Come for the wedding.
Stay for Bali.
We’re bringing a small group of our closest family and friends together in a place that feels extraordinary to us.
More than a wedding day, we hope this becomes a few unhurried days of sharing tables, discovering somewhere new and making memories across cultures and families.

Some journeys together.
The rest, at your pace.
We’ll organise transport for selected group plans and share the exact pick-up points in the schedule. At other times, guests should expect to arrange their own journeys.
Our trusted driverContact details coming soon
We’ll share their WhatsApp details and booking guidance here.
01Airport arrival＋
Pre-book an airport transfer or driver to your first hotel. Share your arrival plans with us once flights are confirmed.
02Our organised transport＋
Where transport is included, the calendar and event details will say so explicitly. Do not assume transport is provided for MYOB activities.
03Independent travel＋
A private driver is best for day itineraries. Grab and Gojek can be useful for shorter trips, subject to local pick-up rules.
04Allow for traffic＋
Travel times can change considerably. Leave generous buffers, especially between Bali areas and before time-sensitive events.
05Before you travel＋
We’ll keep visa, levy, weather, packing and eSIM guidance updated here closer to May.
