Marry Me at Marriott offers couples a one-day shortcut to planning a wedding in Thailand

Planning a wedding usually means juggling venue visits, menu tastings, photographers, dresses, flowers, beauty appointments and an increasingly complicated spreadsheet. For couples considering a wedding in Thailand, Marriott Bonvoy is putting much of that planning process in one room for a day.
Marry Me at Marriott returns to Bangkok on Saturday, 3 October 2026, taking over the Thai Chitlada Grand Ballroom at Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen’s Park.
The full-day wedding and honeymoon fair brings together 32 Marriott hotels and resorts across Thailand, representing 14 brands and destinations from Bangkok and Chiang Mai to Pattaya, Hua Hin, Phuket, Khao Lak, Krabi and Koh Samui.
Rather than visiting venues individually, couples can compare city weddings, beach celebrations and destination escapes, meet wedding specialists, explore menus and décor, and speak with suppliers in one place.
Start With the Biggest Decision: Where Do You Want to Get Married?
One of the most useful aspects of the fair is the sheer range of wedding venues represented.
Sixteen Bangkok properties will participate, covering everything from luxury city hotels and riverside settings to contemporary Sukhumvit addresses. Options include W Bangkok, The St. Regis Bangkok, JW Marriott Hotel Bangkok, The Athenee Hotel, Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit, Bangkok Marriott Hotel The Surawongse and Royal Orchid Sheraton Riverside Hotel Bangkok.
Couples considering a destination wedding can explore options without leaving Bangkok.
In the north, Chiang Mai Marriott Hotel represents Chiang Mai, while eastern Thailand options include Renaissance Pattaya Resort & Spa, Pattaya Marriott Resort and Spa and Rayong Marriott Resort & Spa.
For a wedding by the sea, southern properties range from W Koh Samui and Phulay Bay, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve in Krabi to resorts across Phuket and Khao Lak. Hua Hin and Pranburi are represented by three resorts, offering another relatively accessible option for couples who want a seaside celebration outside Bangkok.
Wedding teams from the participating properties will be available to discuss packages, setups, decorations, catering and support services, making it easier to compare what works for your guest list, budget and preferred style.

Come Hungry: Six Bangkok Hotels Are Showcasing Their Catering
Once the venue shortlist is taking shape, there is another rather important question: what will everyone eat?
Food gets its own spotlight at Marry Me at Marriott, with six Bangkok hotels presenting their creative catering services.
The food showcase features The St. Regis Bangkok, JW Marriott Hotel Bangkok, The Athenee Hotel, Bangkok Marriott Hotel Sukhumvit, Bangkok Marriott Hotel The Surawongse and Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen’s Park.
For couples, it is a chance to explore different culinary approaches and start thinking beyond the standard wedding banquet. Whether the plan calls for an elaborate formal dinner or something more personal, the showcase offers a taste of what the hotels' culinary teams can create.
Meet the People Who Make the Wedding Happen
A venue and menu are only the beginning.
The wedding fair will also bring together professional partners covering wedding planning, bridalwear, jewelry, makeup, spa and beauty, lighting and sound, photography and videography.
That makes the event particularly practical for couples at the beginning of the planning process. Instead of searching for suppliers separately, they can meet different specialists, ask questions and begin putting together a team in one visit.
There will also be live activities throughout the day, including a wedding expert talk, his-and-hers drink workshop, video guestbook demonstration, perfume workshops, keychain making, a photo booth and live painting exhibitions.
Some are useful demonstrations; others are simply ideas couples might want to borrow for their own celebration.

Planning a Destination Wedding? This Is Where the Fair Becomes Useful
For couples based in Bangkok but considering getting married elsewhere in Thailand, the event could save several weekends of travel.
Representatives from hotels in Chiang Mai, Pattaya, Rayong, Hua Hin, Phuket, Khao Lak, Koh Samui and Krabi will all be in Bangkok.
It means you can compare, for example, the convenience of a Hua Hin wedding with a resort celebration in Phuket or a more intimate escape to Koh Samui without immediately arranging separate site visits.
Once the shortlist has been narrowed down, couples can then concentrate their time on visiting the destinations that genuinely suit their plans.
Wedding Fair Booking Rewards
There is also an incentive for couples ready to make a decision on the day. Those who confirm a wedding with a participating Marriott hotel during the event can receive 15,000 Marriott Bonvoy points.
Couples who pre-register for the fair in advance and then finalize their wedding booking during the event can receive an additional 15,000 points, bringing the total potential reward to 30,000 Marriott Bonvoy points.
Pre-registration is available at Marry Me at Marriott registration.
