“Location, location, location.” This is the acknowledged mantra of the real estate agent, but it works just as well for the wedding planner. Wedding ceremonies are one of the most significant and universal rites of passages that we humans celebrate, so shouldn’t this single pivotal happening be genuinely unforgettable? What better way to achieve this than literally contriving a “match made in heaven.” Karma offers not just one, but two versions of paradise - plus a plethora of options to ensure that couples have their dream wedding realized – and their expectations exceeded.
Since opening early last year, Karma Kandara has hosted a series of weddings and has swiftly established its reputation as the sine qua non of destinations for couples wishing to celebrate their nuptials under the most exclusive of circumstances.
“Most wedding parties choose to host their event at Nammos Beach Club,” says Rika, a key member of the Karma events team in Bali. “Just last month we hosted a 200 person wedding and reception featuring a live jazz band, DJs, cocktails and sit down dinner,” she explains.
Already voted Bali’s Best Beach by Hello Bali! Magazine, the island’s foremost travel & lifestyle publication, Nammos is hard to match when it comes to sheer romance – a cove accessible only by private cliff inclinator, ivory sand scattered with cushioned pavilions, a tranquil lagoon and a kitchen serving everything a hungry wedding guest could wish for, from choice cuts of Australian lamb to freshly shucked oysters.
Award winning New York chef Raymond Saja offers a range of dining options from casual buffets to elaborate sit down dinners, but above all is ready to fulfill every request – because after all, your wedding should be your own. The same goes for entertainment – whether you’re looking for circus performers, a solo Tenor, fireworks over the Indian ocean or a funk band, Karma Kandara will get you what you need.
Then there’s wedded bliss Samui style. Karma Samui hosts more than 12 weddings a year, with a concentration around July and August – “it’s the best time to get married in Samui because it’s neither too hot nor rainy,” explains the resort’s wedding co-ordinator, Sue. With a similarly majestic location, overlooking the gulf of Thailand, an excellent choice of cuisine from gourmet Thai to European plus entertainment that runs from island hopping and dinner cruises among the neighbouring atolls to elephant rides (adding a whole new dimension to Here Comes the Bride) to fire dancers to elaborate lantern arrangements.
Whether you choose Bali or Samui, you can be assured of a splash of local colour and a range of choice that’s only matched by the good guidance and support of the Karma team. Either way, it will be a match made in heaven…and a day that you’ll never forget.
