Take a look below at the variety of special Puri Wedding experiences we are able to offer: 

 
Puri Venue Package

You may wish to use the Puri simply as the venue for your wedding ceremony. In this case, after choosing the ceremony type you require ie: Legal, Christian religious only, Balinese blessing or Commitment which we will organize to take place at the Puri, the wedding pavilion will be decorated in the Royal style using typical Balinese decorations. These include very long tapered flags known as Umbul-Umbul, long carved leaf decorations known as Penjor, ceremonial umbrellas, flowers, candles etc. Your ceremony will be followed by a special Indonesian and Balinese luncheon or dinner before leaving the Puri for the return trip to your hotel or villa.

This simple package allows you to enjoy the environment of the Puri for your ceremony and be spoiled by the hospitality of the family during your private meal. Only the Puri family itself are involved in this arrangement since there is no music or dance included.

The Puri overlooks wonderful rice terraces and these, as well as a large, nearby river bank, offer the opportunity for some great photographs before and after your ceremony has taken place.

Balinese Royal Procession and Performance Package

Should you choose this colorful and energetic arrangement, you will first of all need to select the ceremony you require ie: Legal, Christian religious only, Balinese blessing or Commitment, and this will be organized by us to take place here at the Puri.

Before your ceremony even begins however, as many as 175 villagers will be involved in your Royal Procession and Performance celebrations.

Firstly, a procession of the villagers will take place to bring the bride and groom to the location of the ceremony within the Puri. Such a procession invokes immediate excitement and elation. Don't be surprised if you are left astounded by the very atmosphere it creates.

This procession in your honor consists of some 40 people playing traditional percussion instruments, 35 more banging on bamboo percussion, woman and girls bearing fruit and flower offerings. And this is just the start!

Following the procession, a number of small girls from the village will enter and perform the all important 'welcome dance' for you before your wedding ceremony begins.

And, after your ceremony ends and you have been pronounced husband and wife another colorful, musical feast will take place. Four more dances will be performed for your pleasure and one dance in particular is extremely important since it is based on a story about a couple in love.

You may watch some of these dances whilst dining - or, if you prefer, you may give the performers your full attention and wait until the performances are done before your private meal is served.

Moderate Balinese Royal Wedding Package

This particular package already includes the Balinese Blessing Ceremony so is ideal for those couples not wishing to hold a legal wedding in Bali. If you do wish to be legally married the Blessing can be an additional ceremony performed after the Christian and Legal ceremonies have taken place.

This package includes the couple being invited to spend a night in the Honeymoon Suite room especially prepared by the Puri for such occasions. This unique, simple accommodation has all modern comforts, a lovely open-air, garden bathroom, good sized terrace and quite spacious garden. Certainly enough room for the bride & groom to be totally relaxed whilst being a part of the Nobleman's family for the night.

There are approximately 150 local villagers involved in the Moderate  Royal Wedding Package.

Before your ceremony is due to commence you will fussed over whilst being dressed in Balinese Ceremonial Costumes and makeup.

The wedding pavilion will be prepared by the family in traditional Royal Balinese style and including such items as: very long tapered flags known as Umbul-Umbul, long carved leaf decorations known as Penjor, ceremonial umbrellas, flowers, candles etc. and the offerings required to partake of the Balinese Blessing Ceremony will have be prepared by the Puri family and village friends earlier in the day.

A ceremonial procession by many of the local villagers with their various Balinese traditional percussion instruments will start the proceedings by bringing the bride & groom to the Puri wedding pavilion area.

A welcome dance performed by little girls from the village will precede the ceremony itself and you will then go through the steps of a traditional blessing ceremony and celebration guided by the officiant who is normally the Nobleman himself.

Such a ceremony involves many detailed aspects and parts - you will even experience a little Balinese humor along the way! Many of the parts are too complex to explain - they simply need to be experienced to be appreciated and understood!

Any humor in your ceremony is not done just for you, but is a genuinely endearing tradition and practice within the Balinese culture.

At the conclusion of your Blessing Ceremony you will be entertained by another traditional dance performance with the dancers accompanied by a Balinese Orchestra known as Gamelan before being invited to sit, relax and enjoy your private meal service.


In addition to the packages above we are able to provide even larger and more involved ceremonies and performances in our Royal Balinese Wedding. However, because there are as many as 450 villagers involved in such events they are suitable only for a fairly large group of guests. Should you intend for your group to fall into this category, please feel free to let us know your requirements and we will send all the appropriate details.

The arrangements detailed for our Puri Weddings Packages by Bali Weddings International are all based on the couple themselves but we will be pleased to give prices for meals and transportation for any guests you may invite to participate in any one of these marvelous events. When you contact us, do let us know how many you expect to have in your party.

You are welcome to make additions, modifications and upgrades to a certain degree to any of these arrangements however, do remember that each of them have been especially designed by us in conjunction with the Puri family to offer you the most lasting and memorable experience possible.

If you are interested in getting to know some of the unspoiled people and some of the customs of this beautiful island and you seek far more from your journey into your new lives together than just a ceremony, then we know you will be thrilled by the experiences we are able to arrange for you through PURI WEDDINGS by Bali Weddings International!
