Nick and Rian’s Koh Samui wedding

A destination wedding seemed like it was written in the stars for this couple. After meeting in double bay eight years prior, Rian proposed to Nick in Bali, and Nick returned the love, and the question, when he proposed later in Sydney.

Perched high on a clifftop overlooking the world-famous Koh Samui coastline, Silavadee is known for its seamless blend of modern luxury with natural beauty. Nestled in a lush rainforest with panoramic ocean views as far as the eye can see, the setting was perfect for Nick and Rian to celebrate their love. Guests were instantly immersed in the serenely sophisticated atmosphere. The resort’s private pools, infinity edges, and dramatic cliffside beauty are pure indulgence, ideal for the fun-loving and stylish couple.

“We wanted a celebration that felt like a holiday for everyone — relaxed, memorable, and affordable,” the grooms explained about choosing Thailand as their location.

For the ceremony itself, the couple exchanged vows on a circular altar overlooking the ocean. An extraordinary floral installation complemented it. The lush and organic design featured moss, native ferns, and even some pops of fresh fruit, making it stand out with luminescent shades of green. It was as if nature itself had risen up to celebrate this couple’s love story. Guests were shielded from the tropical sun by elegant white parasols, creating a romantic sea of ivory.

In perhaps one of the most dramatic displays of colour and celebration, when Nick and Rian sealed their vows with a kiss, the skies burst into life. A vibrant smoke show filled the horizon with plumes of purple, red, green, and yellow cutting through the clear blue skies. The moment was full of drama, joy, and hinted at the energy of the night to come. Both grooms looked striking among the colours in striking monochrome white, each fitted with a flowing cape – another nod to the couple’s flair.

The organic green altar set the tone for the ceremony and reception styling. Lush foliage flowed through every element, from the welcome sign to the finer details, creating a fresh, cohesive look that perfectly complemented the natural beauty of Koh Samui.

As the sun dipped behind the mountains, guests gathered outdoors for a spectacular reception. Serpentine tables wound their way across the lawn, dressed in silk green tablecloths that melted beautifully into the surrounding landscape. The space glowed with the soft light of golden hour, as colourful confetti rained down to celebrate the couple’s grand entrance.

For the second part of the festivities, the stylish grooms did a costume change. This time, Nick and Rian appeared in classic black tie tuxedos, striking the perfect balance to their earlier all white ceremony looks. With the ocean and mountains surrounding Silavadee as the backdrop for the evening, the celebration unfolded into an evening of food, laughter, and the most epic dance-off under the stars. From party pilots to emotional speeches, there was nothing that these two left off the list.

Guests were treated to incredible cuisine before dancing late into the night, with every detail carefully crafted to feel like an extension of the tropical paradise around them. Trays of shots were passed around the party and only further fueled the couple and their guests to keep their party going.

The evening reached its peak in a showstopping fireworks display, filling the night sky with bursts of colour and joy — a fitting finale for a wedding that was nothing short of extraordinary.
