How much does a Koh Samui elopement cost?
One of the first questions many couples ask when planning a destination wedding is: how much does it cost to elope in Koh Samui?

Our Koh Samui elopement packages currently start from 17,500 THB for a couple, with more styled options at 39,500 THB and 57,800 THB.

What Can Affect the Cost of a Koh Samui Elopement?
The cost of your elopement can vary depending on the type of ceremony and experience you would like.
Photography
Our packages include either 1 hour or 2 hours of professional photography. Additional photography time can give you more opportunity to capture your ceremony, beach portraits and special moments around Koh Samui.
Flowers and Styling
Some couples prefer a simple ceremony with just a bouquet, while others love having floral arrangements, a petal aisle or a beautifully decorated wedding arch.
Guests
An elopement doesn’t always have to mean just the two of you. Our Barefoot in the Sand and Just the Two of Us packages allow you to include family members or close friends.
Guests can be added for 1,000 THB per person.
Location
Koh Samui has many beautiful places for a wedding ceremony. Your chosen location may affect the arrangements required for your wedding day.
Additional Experiences
Some couples choose to make their wedding day even more special by adding experiences such as a romantic dinner, a private boat trip or a celebration with close family and friends.
Is a Koh Samui Elopement Cheaper Than a Traditional Wedding?
For many couples, an elopement or small wedding can be a more affordable alternative to a large traditional wedding.
Instead of spending on a large guest list and a big reception, you can focus your budget on the things that matter most to you — your ceremony, photography, flowers, location and the experience you share together.
There is no single right way to get married in Koh Samui. Some couples want something very simple, while others prefer a beautifully styled ceremony.
The most important thing is creating a wedding day that feels like you.
Why Choose an Elopement in Koh Samui?
Many couples choose an elopement because they don’t want a large traditional wedding.
A beach ceremony in Koh Samui can be relaxed, personal and meaningful, allowing you to focus on each other rather than spending your wedding day managing a large event.
With many years of experience living and working in Koh Samui, we help couples create ceremonies that feel personal and relaxed, whether you’re planning a simple elopement or a more styled intimate celebration.
Can We Have Guests at a Koh Samui Elopement?
Absolutely.
Although an elopement traditionally means just the couple, many couples choose to invite a small number of family members or close friends to share their special day.
Guests can be added to our Barefoot in the Sand and Just the Two of Us packages for 1,000 THB per guest.
If you’re planning a slightly larger celebration with family and friends, you may also like to explore our Small & Intimate Beach Weddings in Koh Samui.
Can We Customise Our Elopement?
Yes. Every couple is different, and you may have your own ideas about the location, flowers, photography or ceremony.
We can discuss your plans and help you create a ceremony that feels personal to you.
Do We Need a Wedding Planner for a Koh Samui Elopement?
Planning an elopement may be simpler than planning a large wedding, but having local guidance can make the whole experience much easier, especially when you’re planning from overseas.
Even with our Island Elopement package, we are involved in helping you plan and coordinate your wedding day. We help guide you through the arrangements, communicate with the people involved and make sure the details come together smoothly.
For couples choosing our Just the Two of Us package, wedding planning and coordination are included as part of the package, with a pre-meeting with your celebrant and wedding planner.
You don’t need a large-scale wedding planner to have a beautiful Koh Samui elopement. What you do need is local knowledge, guidance and someone who understands how to bring all the details together.
That feels much more like what you actually do — and it also avoids positioning you as a big wedding-planning company.
