2020-08-24
As we all know, COVID-19 has placed a stop on all possible travel plans, which includes destination weddings. However, if you and your partner are not in a rush to hold your wedding ceremony and have always dreamt of turning your ideal destination wedding into a reality, there is no need to let the current situation dampen your spirits — now’s the time to slowly start planning for it!
If a luxurious beach-side celebration with fireworks, candlelit dinners, and wishing lanterns sounds amazing to you, The Residence Bintan is an idyllic retreat just a short ferry ride away. Find out how you can escape the hustle and bustle of the city and have a fun-filled wedding at the resort!
Breathtaking venues for a dream-like reality
Serene solemnisations
Destination weddings are attractive to many because of the unique and romantic spaces available that cannot be found in most hotels and restaurants. Over at The Residence Bintan, couples can look forward to holding a small and intimate solemnisation on a breathtaking beach right by the South China Sea. Just imagine how spectacular your solemnisation would look with a beautiful, vibrant sunset in the back!
Alternatively, the poolside deck also makes for a great location for a solemnisation ceremony, where you and your guests will be treated to a panoramic view of the beach and the cool sea breeze. Surrounded by lush, tropical trees, the deck will complement any nature or floral theme that you are going for.
Unforgettable candlelit dinners
After the solemnisation ceremony, couples and their guests can head down to the Garden Lawn or Clear Marquee for a candlelit dinner. Nestled among lush foliage and sturdy trees, the resort will expertly transform the area into a fairy-tale-like setting with warm fairy lights, candle lights, and gourmet delights from the chef’s speciality menu.
Opt for either a 4-course meal or a buffet, with authentic Indonesian dishes such as Rendang Sapi (Slow Cooked Wagyu Beef Cheek with Aromatic Spices and Coconut), Sambal Goreng Udang Belimbing Wuluh (Wok-Fried Prawns with Chili Sauce and Belimbi), and even a live cooking of Roti Kirai with Chicken Curry!
Couples can also further enhance their wedding experience with exclusive services such as a live band, wishing lanterns, and even dazzling fireworks! That’s something that you definitely won’t be able to enjoy in Singapore!
Luxuriate in restorative indulgence
After a long day of festivities and celebrations, you and your guests can look forward to winding down at their comfortable and luxurious accommodations. The Residence Bintan offers 3 unique suites and villas for the perfect retreat, namely the Garden Terrace/Upper Sea View Suite, the Deluxe Sea View Villa, as well as the Beachfront Villa, which comes with its very own private pool.
With the largest private pool villa inventory of 47 units, as well as a spacious room size of 100 sq.m in their Suite accommodations, The Residence Bintan offers the perfect romantic getaway escapade as you and your partner can enjoy each other’s company with minimal distractions and discomfort.
Never-ending excitement
At The Residence Bintan, the fun need not stop after the end of the wedding! The resort is located right in the heart of nature, with over 70 activities for you and your guests to have the time of your lives. The resort offers complimentary benefits for in-house guests, which includes 2 units of bicycles in each room to roam around the resort, in-house activities, as well as Kakatu Kids Club activities for kids aged 3 and above.
Soak in the sun on their sea hammocks!
For couples who are more adventurous, dive into a hands-on farming experience in resort Earth Basket or island-hop to Mapur Island or White Sand Island to snorkel! The Residence Bintan is also home to an international spa brand from the UK, Spa by ila, which is perfect for those who prefer to lounge and relax.
