8 Affordable Wedding Venues in Singapore

Getting married is a big deal. It's also an occasion where budget is a key consideration (unless you're the likes of Taylor Swift). Deciding on the location is the 1st step to getting the party started. Here are eight beautiful venues to host the wedding of a lifetime.

With the upcoming GST increase on 1 January 2023, many of you ready-to-wed couples are probably sealing the deal on your wedding location.

Either way, your wedding location is a topic that will make the biggest impact on your wedding budget. If you’re wondering about a more creative way of celebrating your matrimony, and you know, break with convention but not break the bank, well, we’re on the same page.

There’s no denying that money can be a significant source of stress in your relationship, not to mention your wedding planning. You may have found Mr/Ms Right, but there is no right answer to what you should or should not spend on.

The groom, for instance, may not think 100 extra white roses count as essential, but to the bride, fresh flowers are simply non-negotiable. Many couples are taking a more thoughtful approach to weddings, cutting down fluff to focus on those that matter to them the most.

So, let’s start with the location, shall we?

1. 1-Atico

If you're planning to give your guests a luxurious, non-hotel dining experience, consider Jewel at Changi Airport. Granted, this is not the cheapest option available, but it's still a good deal compared to a hotel banquet for the same number of guests, plus you'll get a range of renowned caterers to choose from.

Jewel offers a range of indoor locations for both wedding banquets and solemnisation ceremonies. Under the wedding banquet package at Cloud 9 Piazza, you can choose between a 6-Course Chinese Banquet or a 4-Course Western Set.

With the majestic HSBC Rain Vortex providing a spectacular backdrop for photo and video taking, you could say it's the next best thing to hosting a destination wedding (at a fraction of the budget).
