Have your White Lotus wedding on Koh Samui
Are you looking to the latest season of White Lotus to plan your White Lotus wedding?
As the black comedy premiers its third season, our attention is drawn to both the plot and the idyllic location.
Mike White’s third instalment of the cult hit White Lotus premiered in the incredible 5-star Four Seasons resort in Hawaii. The glamorous location was a serious plot point for the intriguing and mysterious TV show. From here, the next season found itself with an all-star cast swanning around the dramatic cliffsides of Italy’s Palermo. When the season came to an end, the bookings throughout the Sicilian coast had sky-rocketed by over 50 percent.
Now, it’s up to the third season, and again, an incredible location that leaves its viewers pulling their phones straight out to find out more.

Nestled in the picturesque Thailand island of Koh Samui, the backdrop is one from all destination wedding mood boards. Lush jungles, wild monkeys, fresh fruit, infinity pools, massages, facials and of course, delicious Thai cuisine and cocktails. It’s basically what every bride pictures when dreaming of their wedding.
If you’re looking to have a destination wedding somewhere in a tropical paradise, a White Lotus wedding could be the perfect inspiration (minus the drama that surrounds the doomed characters).

Where is Koh Samui?
Off the east cost of the Kra Isthmus, Koh Samui is the postcard version of Thailand. Known for its palm-fringed beaches, coconut groves and the dense mountainous rainforest, this is the Thailand that every tourist pictures.
