Who are we
Founded in 2013 by Chonlada Lafferty after her own destination wedding in Phuket, The Bridal Planner Thailand is a group of hard working and fun loving professionals with international and hospitality background based in Phuket providing planning, styling, coordination and rental services for premium events across Thailand. Our style is a combination of good looks (neat and stylish) and amazing feels (personal and exclusive). We pride ourselves in our consistent service excellence and top-tier work quality.
Our commitment
We are committed to creating unforgettable experiences for our clients and everyone of their guests from the entire wedding planning process until the last guest to leave. We believe that every successful event requires excellent communication skills and thorough preparation and that behind unforgettable experiences are attention to detail, the ability to think outside the box and the willingness to go above and beyond the client’s expectations.
We feel strongly responsible for the planet and its living creatures. In 2018, we have changed the way that we live at home and work, both in the office and on site, in order to minimize waste and to help animals to live a better life. We no longer offer balloons, floating lanterns or elephants. Our regular social services include public beach garbage pick up, visiting stray dog shelters, visiting young kids and educate them about the importance of the ocean.
