Pearl of the Orient PENANG

Home to a concentric mélange of ethnicities, cultures, and religions, Penang extends a deeply cordial welcome to its tourists. With a considerable portion of its population being Indian, this island has transformed itself into the perfect getaway venue for a destination wedding - a home away from home, indeed.

Located on the north-western coast of Peninsular Malaysia, the island provides picturesque wedding backdrops, including rainforest orchards, lush gardens, romantic waterfalls, and renowned serene beaches. To make your experience even more memorable, Penang has some of the most incredible and well-planned, man-built architectural marvels, like TOP's Rainbow Skywalk, as the most preferred spots for a pre or post-wedding shoot. Situated at the height of 250 metres above ground, the skywalk gives you a panoramic view from its curved glass bottom.

With a subtle touch of European architecture combined with beautiful art on its streets, the ambience of the entire city is a delight to behold. The ride to the island's goodness doesn't end here, as it holds some of the best culinary artists, providing you with delectables that are nothing short of paradise.

Also, to keep your guests entertained, Penang has a bundle of exhilarating and adventurous activities they can indulge in between ceremonies. Since the list of reasons why this tropical island is perfect for a dreamy wedding is endless, we thought of devising a list of hotels and resorts that can turn your wedding into a grand affair.
