One of the reasons that couples prefer to elope is because their wedding days become more intimate and often, in many ways, less stressful to coordinate. Elopements can also be less expensive and allow you focus your money where it matters most to you. Maybe that’s going somewhere incredible, like Bali, or maybe it means hiring the perfect baker for your dream wedding cake. But, many couples worry about finding the perfect vendor for their dream elopement when they’re in another state or country.
As a destination elopement photographer, I want to help my couples find the best vendors for their Bali elopement (or elopement anywhere around the world!). It's important to me that they feel confident about every decision made leading up to their big day. Choosing your dream vendors is important for bringing your wedding vision to life. If you’re eloping in Bali, you’re in luck! There’s some truly incredible wedding vendors there, especially since tourism and the wedding industry has really spiked in the last few years there! Today, I'm sharing my favorite vendors for your Bali elopement!

Florists
This incredible company has two workshops in Bali and Jakarta. They specialize in destination elopements in Bali, creating natural arrangements that compliment the beauty around you. Flora Botanica Designs always creates stunning and timeless flower arrangements to make your wedding day stylish, but sure to stand the test of time.
Kitan Florist is one of the most amazing local florists in Bali! They’ve been in the wedding industry for over a decade, bringing couples their dream decor. I absolutely love their incredible arches and tablescape work. Everything the florists at Kintan Florist create are beautiful!
If you’re looking for truly dramatic (and yet not overdone) florals, consider working with Flower Corner. They definitely know their florals! Every bouquet and arrangement is inspired by what’s in season and unique to Bali, creating truly stunning flowers for every bride. I love that they keep things organic and true to what makes Bali so special.
Bakeries & Cakes
If you’re looking for an incredible wedding cake to celebrate in Bali, look no further! The artisans at Butter Bali are SO talented. They’re on a mission to make the most beautiful and delicious cakes on the island… and I think they’re succeeding! Gita moved to Bali to change her life and now, she’s creating works of art for couples every day. Truly amazing (and yummy!).
Having an intimate elopement in Bali doesn’t mean you can’t have a traditional wedding cake. No one does them better than Creme de la Creme Bali! This incredible bakery creates gorgeous cakes and dessert tables for celebrations of all sizes. Everything looks so delicious and I love the level of detail added into every cake.
Venues
Choosing the perfect venue for your elopement in Bali is really about knowing yourselves. Decide if you want something natural, adventurous, dramatic, or luxurious. No matter what you’re dreaming of, there’s a venue in Bali for you! Check out my full list of the most beautiful places to elope in Bali! Here’s a few of my absolute favorites:
Ubud
Ubud is the perfect spot if you want a more natural elopement in the heart of Bali. This city is covered in beautiful lush plants and wildlife. It’s so dreamy and magical here!
Mount Batur
Mount Batur is an active volcano on the north west part of Bali, known for its collapsed top and dark rocks, creating a super dramatic location for your elopement. There’s some great hikes around here and a beautiful lake, so if you’re looking for an adventurous elopement, consider this volcano!
Tibumana Waterfall
There’s nothing more romantic than a gorgeous waterfall! That’s why I love elopements at Tibumana Waterfall. Located in Ubud, the path to the waterfall is surrounded by beautiful rice fields and palm trees. It’s the perfect chance to find a secluded spot in Bali while still enjoying what everyday life is like in Bali.
Kelingking Beach
For that beach feeling, consider eloping at Kelingking Beach! This is one of the most well-known and beautiful spots on the island. The overlook is incredible and a super dramatic landscape, perfect for that “wow” factor!
Air BnBs and Resorts
Bali is known for its world-class accommodations. From 5-star luxury resorts to dreamy Airbnbs in the jungles of Bali, there’s truly a spot to stay for everyone! I’ve shared my favorite venues and places to stay in my Complete Guide to Eloping in Bali - but here’s a quick recap of a few favs!
This beautiful Airbnb brings the comfort of New York City to Bali. The architecture screams city chic while you enjoy views of Bali’s rice fields. It’s one of my all-time-favorite Airbnbs in Bali!
Cozy Boutique Villa (Airbnb)
Two words: tropical luxury. Cozy Boutique Villa is a stunning home filled with Balinese details, a beautiful outdoor space, lush greenery, and a private pool. If you want some truly dreamy portraits before your elopement, this Airbnb is for you!
I absolutely love this luxury home right off the beach in Bali. This villa is close to so many incredible tourist locations, restaurants, and even the Sacred Monkey Sanctuary! It’s perfect - complete with large spaces to relax, a pool, and amenities.

ANNA CLAIRE
I am most passionate about travel, meeting new people, and storytelling. Which is exactly why I created Thin Spaces Productions to combine all of my loves into one mission. After graduating college, I moved to South East Asia to be a travel photographer. It wasn’t long until I started shooting elopements.
South East Asia has completely captured my heart, which is why I love helping couples plan their elopement in Bali. I have found that Bali is one of the most beautiful places on earth which also unlocks your inner child. It has become a little piece of my heart that I cannot wait to share with you.
