Blissful, Stress free, Exciting, Magical, are some of the words that come to mind when I think of our wedding day and experience with Global Weddings. I have started and stopped writing this review countless… times because I cannot find the words to express our gratitude towards Narelle & the Global Weddings team. On the 28th September 2019 we were lucky enough to get married in Bali at the Ungasan Clifftop Resort.
Narelle, Kylie and Putu put their heart and soul into our day. I cannot fault Global Weddings in any way. No matter how big or small of a Wedding you are wanting to achieve

The entire team of Global Weddings have been exceptional from start to finish. They made the planning of a destination wedding a lot less stressful and dare I say, enjoyable! The communication between us and Hayley in Melbourne and Kylie and the team in Bali was constant, smooth and prompt. The time Hayley and Global Weddings took to understand our… vision and not only deliver it, but ensure that all little things that we didn't even consider were thought about. Once the wedding events started, the team took over completely, ensuring everything ran smoothly allowing our families, Jim and

We cannot recommend Global Weddings enough. Hayley planned the most perfect day for us, it was everything we wanted and more. Hayley made the entire planning of our day so easy and stress free! Michelle on the day was amazing! All of our guests commented on how relaxed a bride I was & how well organised and beautiful everything was and that was down to the global weddings team. They truly are the best in the business 💕

We cannot recommend or Thank Global weddings enough for putting together the wedding of our dreams. The service we received dealing with Hayley and Michelle was second to none. They are amazing at what they do and 2 of the most efficient people you could ever deal with. During the planning stage in Melbourne, Hayley looked after us and helped guide… us through every detail. She was so friendly and knowledgeable with her advice and recommendations. She was super-efficient at answering every one of my emails with all my questions and quires no matter how big or small. Can’t tell you
