These days there are a myriad of restaurants from which to choose in Bali and many of them are wonderful places to celebrate an event as special as a wedding.
Some couples marrying in Bali choose to organize a function with their guests either before or after their wedding. Obviously, the before wedding functions serve the purpose of introducing family and friends from both sides to each other so that they may feel more comfortable gathering together on the day of the wedding. Post wedding functions are an opportunity to get together once again afterwards to recall the events of the big day or night.
Some of our favorite options are :
The beachside Ku-De-Ta Restaurant for a brunch function - Seminyak
The location is beautiful, with manicured lawns and a view of the sea. The set breakfast menu offers excellent value for money in a modern open-air environment !
The beachside Gado-Gado Restaurant for a dinner function - Seminyak
This lovely restaurant offers fabulous meals and excellent service - not cheap but high quality. Guests are bound to enjoy watching the sunset during cocktail hour and the way the restaurant lights up the shore when darkness falls !
The beachside La Luciola Restaurant - Seminyak
This well-known restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and overlooks manicured lawns and a wide sandy beachfront. La Luciola only accepts group bookings in low season !
Bali Garden Hotel - Tuban
This moderate priced property sits on the very best beachfront in the Tuban area and offers views of the entire west coast of the island. Not at all fancy but ideal for a friendly and informal gathering either eating from their beach Pizzeria restaurant menu or for organizing a special barbeque dinner. Bali Garden Hotel is very welcoming and flexible!
The Bali International Lawn Bowls Club - Nusa Dua
Excellent food & service. This friendly club offers an open-air restaurant on the upper floor suitable for approximately 40 guests and an air-conditioned, glass walled area large enough for approximately 25 as well as an excellent bar and terrace for cocktails on the lower level. An average sized group will generally be able to have the entire restaurant to themselves, which is just ideal!
The Warisan Restaurant - Seminyak
A beautiful restaurant on the main road of Seminyak. Located behind a well-known shop selling furniture, clothing, jewelry and other items of quality, this 2 storey restaurant offers fabulous meals and service. A view over the nearby rice paddies is just as lovely at sunset as a view of the sea!
The Mozaic Restaurant - Ubud
A truly romantic garden restaurant with fabulous western style meals. Owned by a Western Chef married to an Indonesian, the restaurant service is hard to beat and the environment is truly special !
Indus Restaurant - Ubud
Indus Restaurant is just a five minute drive from the centre of Ubud. It overlooks the Tjampuhan river and enjoys breathtaking views of the surrounding hills. On a clear day, you can see mighty Gunung Agung in the east, and during a full moon, there is a spectacular view from the terrace
Sail Sensations - Evening Cruise
A spacious, purpose built single level catamaran offers evening cruises for a maximum of 50 guests. Lots of inclusions in the price such as transfers to and from the harbour, welcome drinks, live music and impressive silver service dining. The Sail Sensations can be chartered especially for your event but is just as enjoyable when sharing with a few other people !
