The Plan B test
Do not choose an outdoor venue until you like its indoor wedding too.
Ask what happens if the weather changes three hours before the ceremony.
InterContinental
Plan A
Private beach or garden ceremony - Beach Bliss, Garden Enchantment
Plan B
Indoor reception space appropriate to the setup - the Great Hall is 19 x 14 m
The question to ask
“If we move indoors on the wedding day, show us the exact room and the exact setup - not a different wedding from the brochure.”
Hyatt
Plan A
Beachfront or garden ceremony
Plan B
Regency Ballroom, about 500 sq m, stated for up to 400
The question to ask
“Can our full guest count move indoors without changing the dinner, entertainment or floor plan?”
Four Seasons
Plan A
Beach, lawn or resort setting
Plan B
Open Lounge Pavilion, 204 sq m, 110 seated - confirm the alternative for your package and guest count
The question to ask
“If weather changes, what exactly changes - venue, decor, timing and additional cost?”
A backup room you hate is not a backup plan.

Budget reality
One number makes wedding budgets easier to understand.
Answer the four questions above and this section works out what your budget means per guest.
per guest
Rough planning number
This is not the dinner budget.
It has to absorb some combination of:
venue
food and drinks
ceremony
flowers and decor
sound and lighting
photo and video
entertainment
planner
transport
taxes and service charges
and sometimes accommodation
These are planning heuristics, not market quotes.
Budget changes the wedding more than the venue list does.
Three editorial examples. None is a quote.
Around $20k
Potential shape
30-50 guests
ceremony and dinner
controlled decor
limited production
Main risk
Trying to buy every idea from a mood board at once.
Around $40k
Potential shape
40-80 guests
five-star resort
fuller flowers and production
photo and video
welcome event or after-party
Main risk
Hotel package and external production budgets drifting apart.
Around $75k+
Potential shape
premium venue
rooms and transfers for guests
bespoke food and entertainment
welcome event, wedding and next-day event
Main risk
Spending on things the guests barely notice instead of the few things they remember.
The venue quotes the venue. The planner totals the event. Keep the two numbers apart.
01 / InterContinental
InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort
The one we'd inspect first when privacy matters more than convenience.
The resort sits on the Son Tra Peninsula, away from Da Nang's beachfront hotel strip. Guests do not walk out into a tourist district: the resort is the destination.
That suits a wedding held entirely on the property. It costs one with guests and suppliers coming from the city.
What we'd ask before falling in love with it
Exact indoor rain option
Maximum seated capacity for our layout
Sound restrictions
Outside supplier rules
Transport plan
Minimum food and beverage spend
What we'd use it for
A wedding where privacy, architecture and the resort itself matter more than easy movement around Da Nang.
The catch
If half the guest list is staying somewhere else, solve transportation before you solve flowers.
02 / Hyatt
Hyatt Regency Danang Resort and Spa
The safest place to start for a wedding with a real guest list.
At 60, 80 or 120 guests you are moving a small temporary village: rooms, breakfast, transport, older relatives, children, dinner, rain, the after-party and the morning after.
Hyatt puts beachfront ceremony options, accommodation and a ballroom of about 500 sq m on one property.
What we'd ask
Guest minimum
Food and beverage minimum
Outdoor surcharge
Sound and curfew rules
Exact ballroom Plan B
Room block release date
Outside decor and AV rules
What we'd use it for
A medium or larger wedding with a beach ceremony that does not depend on good weather.
The catch
If your first requirement is privacy and isolation, convenience alone does not win the comparison.
03 / Four Seasons
Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai, Hoi An
The one we'd choose when the wedding is a three-day trip.
Guests arrive, stay, eat together, spend the next morning together and go into Hoi An. The resort is the centre of the trip, and the ceremony is one part of it.
What we'd ask
Exact package inclusions
Number of chairs and guests included
Additional guest pricing
Photo and video rules
Minimum room commitment
Next-day brunch
What we'd use it for
A small wedding that runs as a weekend, with the whole guest list on one property near Hoi An.
What we could not confirm
The package prices. Ask for the current package sheet, and ask what service charge and VAT add on top of the headline number.
The catch
The guest count may be small. The weekend around it is not.
The other 23 hours
Your guests need more than a ceremony.
For a destination wedding, judge the venue from the guests’ side too.
Your guests need more than a ceremony.

No drive times here: we could not verify them from a source we trust.
The best venue on Saturday can be the wrong hotel for Thursday to Monday.
One boring question worth asking early
Is the ceremony in Vietnam the legal marriage, or the celebration of a civil marriage handled elsewhere?
A resort ceremony does not by itself have legal status in your home country. Requirements depend on nationality, so settle the civil process before you treat the venue as the paperwork solution.
Send the same questions to every venue.
Three proposals cannot be compared if each answers a different question. These are the fifteen we would send unchanged.
Our date: Our guest count:
Is the date available?
Which exact ceremony and reception spaces would you recommend for this guest count?
What is the indoor or rain alternative for those exact spaces?
What is the total venue plus food and beverage minimum?
What taxes and service charges are added?
What ceremony setup is included?
What flowers and decor are included?
What production and AV are included?
Can we use an outside planner, florist, photographer and production team?
Are there supplier fees or restrictions?
What are the music and event curfew rules?
Is a guest room block required?
What deposit and payment schedule applies?
What are the cancellation and date-change terms?
What is explicitly not included?
Free wedding shortlist
Want the 3 wedding options we'd price first?
Give us the shape of the wedding. We'll narrow the venues and planning options to three.
For each useful option we'll try to establish:
venue fit
current availability
realistic starting budget
what is included
rain plan
guest logistics
the main reason to choose it
the main reason not to
This is free, and it is not a booking.
How we shortlist
Why only three?
Three serious proposals are more useful than twenty venue tabs. These three differ in setting, capacity, logistics, weather backup, accommodation and price.
A venue does not win because its photographs are better.
Before you pay a deposit
Venue information, packages and prices can change. Confirm availability, current inclusions, taxes, service charges and cancellation terms directly before paying a deposit.
We have not inspected these venues in person, and nothing on this page is a held date or a quoted price. A referral fee, if one is ever paid, will be stated on the page it affects and will not change the order or the wording of a shortlist. Checked on 10 September 2026.
