Wedding vow renewal on Phuket
Vow renewalFrom 60,000 THBRemote beach2-hour photographer
A private vow renewal on a quiet beach is one of the most personal ceremonies we plan — usually quietly arranged in advance, often as a surprise for one partner, sometimes with children present so the family is part of the moment.
Part of our guide to Phuket wedding ceremonies — the six ways to marry on the island.
By Paul & SupparinPaul & Supparin
Why couples renew their vows here
A vow renewal is a meaningful private ceremony without the formality or cost of a full wedding. Almost all of our renewals take place on a quiet remote beach, with the couple alone or with their children. The setting is the point: a calm beach, the right time of day, a short ceremony that puts the marriage at the centre of the trip.
Some renewals mark an anniversary. Some are arranged quietly in advance by one partner as a surprise for the other on a special trip. Some bring the children into the ceremony so the family stands together and celebrates the marriage as one. All three are common, and each is planned with the same care.
What is included from 60,000 THB
The package mirrors the beach elopement package, without bridal hair and makeup, which keeps the price lower while still delivering a beautifully coordinated ceremony: a remote beach ceremony location, professional planning, an English-speaking celebrant, a bouquet and boutonnière, ceremony flowers and simple styling, air-conditioned transport, a 2-hour professional photographer, and on-the-day coordination.
How the ceremony runs
The renewal itself is shorter than a first-wedding ceremony and warmer for it. The celebrant frames the renewal, the couple says what they want to say, and — if the children are present — they are folded into the ceremony so it becomes a family acknowledgement of the marriage. The photographer captures the ceremony and a short portrait sequence on the beach afterwards.
Practical considerations
- Anniversaries
Vow renewals are often arranged around a meaningful anniversary date. We can hold the ceremony on the date itself or on the most photogenic day of that week.
- Surprise renewals
Quietly arranged in advance with one partner. We are careful with communications and with the day-of logistics so the surprise lands cleanly.
- With children present
Children are welcome and often become part of the ceremony itself. The celebrant adjusts the script so they are addressed and included, not bystanders.
- Beach and time of day
A quiet remote beach in the late afternoon is the most common shape. Morning ceremonies are available for couples who prefer the calmer, cooler end of the day.

A Perfect Double Vow Renewal in Paradise We cannot recommend Unique Phuket Wedding Planners highly enough! Planning a double vow renewal from Australia could have been a logistical challenge, but Paul and Supparin made the entire process completely seamless. As two couples—Deslie and Russell along with Maureen and Peter—traveling together to celebrate our marriages, we wanted a day that was intimate, personal, and stress-free. Paul and Supparin delivered exactly that.…

Speak to Paul & Supparin about a vow renewal ceremony.
If a date, a ceremony shape, a venue or the paperwork is not yet clear, please start with a conversation rather than a formal brief. Paul and Supparin reply personally, in plain language, and will tell you what we honestly think before anything else.
Before you enquire
What planning a wedding with us actually looks like.
A wedding on Phuket is a small number of decisions made carefully, not a long checklist completed in a hurry. This page is our quiet brief on how we work with couples — so you can decide whether the rhythm suits you before any commitment is asked of either side.
What happens after you write
02
Paul or Supparin reply within a working day
Usually within one Phuket working day. The reply is a considered note, not a brochure — what is achievable on your date, where it should sit on the island, and the two or three concrete next steps.
03
We hold a call when it helps
Many couples prefer a short video call before committing. It is the fastest way to test whether we are the right fit, and to talk through venue, season and the practical brief.
04
A written quote, line by line
When the brief is clear we issue a written quote — every supplier named, every line itemised, every assumption stated. You can change any line before you sign.
How Paul & Supparin work
Two planners, every wedding.
Paul leads the planning conversation, writes the quote, officiates the ceremony, and is the on-the-day point of contact for the couple. Supparin (Toom) leads the in-house floral and styling work, runs the installation, and is the on-the-day point of contact for the venue and the suppliers.
Communication is by email and short calls — calm, responsive, and in English. We do not work to a sales script and we will not pressure a date. Couples who choose to plan with us almost always do so after a considered conversation, not on a first reply.
Planning here is unhurried by design. The wedding is one day; the months before it are a relationship.
Planning from overseas
A planning team used to planning across time zones.
Most couples we plan with live in another country and arrive in Phuket close to the wedding date. Fifteen years of doing this means the rhythm is unhurried for you — we site-visit on your behalf, share photographs and short films, hold calls at sensible hours, and carry the local logistics so you do not have to.
Where a site visit is possible, it is welcome but never required. Couples who arrive only a few days before the wedding are met, briefed in person, and walked through the day before we run it.
Asked often, answered briefly
When should we start planning?
Twelve months is comfortable for a villa or resort wedding. Six months is enough for an elopement or a beach ceremony. Shorter is sometimes possible — please ask before assuming it is not.
Do you only plan large weddings?
No. Elopements and small beach ceremonies are a meaningful part of what we do. The two of you on a quiet beach is taken as seriously as eighty guests at a villa.
Will Paul or Supparin be there on the day?
Yes. Paul officiates the ceremonies, Supparin leads the floral and styling install, and one of them is the on-the-day point of contact. The wedding is not handed off.
Are we tied to specific venues or suppliers?
No. We recommend venues and suppliers we know personally and will tell you honestly where they suit you and where they do not. If you arrive with a venue in mind, we will plan around it.
