Planning your dream wedding in Bali but can’t decide between a hotel or a villa? In this episode, we unpack the pros and cons of each to help you choose the perfect backdrop for your big day.

We share insider tips from years of planning Bali weddings, including:

• Why hotels can be a stress-free, all-in-one option with fantastic facilities for families and kids

• How villas offer next-level privacy and customisation for a more intimate celebration

• The hidden costs and restrictions you should know about both options

• Why we’re not ballroom fans, but love hotel lawns and beachfronts

• Our personal favourites (and why they make the list)
  

Whether you’re picturing a chic hotel lawn or a private villa with an ocean view, this episode will help you feel confident in your choice.

It’s time to talk all things wedding styling and this episode is a big one. We’re joined by the incredible Kylie from Enakai Creative, one of Bali’s most sought-after stylists, to go deep (and we mean deep) on what really goes into designing a wedding day that feels like you.

We chat about:

• How Kylie went from her pre-Bali life to styling some of the biggest weddings on the island

• The difference between a hotel wedding planner, an independent planner, and a coordinator (yes, there’s a difference)

• What styling actually involves, spoiler: it’s way more than picking pretty napkins

• What it’s like styling celebrity weddings

• Why looking at your house (yes, your house!) can help build a wedding vision

• Custom dance floors, hand-sourced details, and handmade decor, what’s possible when you dream big

• Finding your style and how culture can shape it

• How much you really need to budget for styling and what that includes

• Why styling takes 300+ hours (and no, that’s not a typo)

• Do you need a planner and a stylist? Or is one enough?

• Trends we’re loving and what we’re saying goodbye to

• Why we never copy-paste weddings- ever
  

Whether you’re planning something intimate or a full-blown wedding weekend, this episode is packed with gold. So grab your wine (or coffee), get comfy, take notes, and let’s style the hell out of your big day.

- Island weddings off Bali and why we’ve officially tapped out. The stress, the logistics and the hidden costs you don’t see

- What actually is Bali Concierge Co and what’s included in the service

- Britta’s wedding recap. Four out of five days assisting at weddings equals exhaustion, glam and chaos

- Queen Yanti absolutely smashing May with six weddings including three in just four days

- Behind the scenes. Staffing shifts, scaling back and rebuilding the business after a massive season
