WHY

VIETNAM?

Dream Weddings Start in VIETNAM

Amanoi, set between sea and mountains in Vietnam’s Nui Chua National Park, offers an ethereal escape for your intimate wedding or elopement. With sweeping coastal views, refined Vietnamese elegance, and bespoke service, it’s a sanctuary where love meets nature—perfect for couples seeking cinematic beauty, culture, and soulful celebration.

AMANOI

Perched above the dramatic coastline of Vinh Hy Bay, Amanoi is a rare fusion of modern luxury and traditional Vietnamese spirit—making it one of Southeast Asia’s most breathtaking locations for an intimate, cinematic wedding or elopement. Tucked within the pristine Nui Chua National Park, Amanoi offers a sanctuary where mountains meet the sea, and every element feels curated for meaningful connection.

This architectural masterpiece blends sleek, modern design with traditional Vietnamese aesthetics. Its pavilions and villas are framed by lush hills and overlook the shimmering ocean below—providing a setting of natural grandeur and serenity. Whether you choose a clifftop ceremony or a private beach vow exchange, every corner of Amanoi feels like a still from a film.

Cultural depth enhances the experience. Couples can incorporate elements like traditional Vietnamese music, lantern lighting, or a tea ceremony into their celebration—adding authenticity and a spiritual layer to the moment. Amanoi’s setting within a protected national park also imbues each wedding with a deep sense of place and purpose.

Food is another highlight. Amanoi’s chefs draw from Vietnam’s rich culinary heritage to craft exquisite, personalized menus using fresh, local ingredients. From refined banquets to intimate beachfront dinners, every meal becomes a celebration of flavor and memory.

What truly sets Amanoi apart is its dedication to bespoke service. The resort works with top-tier planners, stylists, and artists to bring your vision to life—ensuring a seamless, beautiful, and deeply personal event. The attention to detail is intuitive, never forced, allowing the natural romance of the setting to shine.

Amanoi isn’t just a venue—it’s a poetic destination. It offers couples a rare balance of intimacy, elegance, and wonder—perfect for a wedding that’s not only seen, but felt.
