The hotel is grand, but what was even better, was its location. Plaza Athenee is on Wireless Road, the city\u2019s most beautiful tree-lined boulevard. The Athenee Crystal Hall is a beautiful ballroom with abundant space for large functions and cocktail parties, even up to 1500 guests. The elegant, pillar less Grand Hall with its Venetian inspired crystal chandelier and 7m high windows forms a romantic setting.<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><img class=\\\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2500  \\\" title=\\\"Plaza-Hotel-Indian-Wedding\\\" alt=\\\"Plaza-Hotel-Indian-Wedding\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/Plaza-Hotel-Indian-Wedding.jpg\\\" width=\\\"650\\\" height=\\\"867\\\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><img class=\\\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2500  \\\" title=\\\"suite-lobby-Plaza-Thailand\\\" alt=\\\"suite-lobby-Plaza-Thailand\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/suite-lobby-Plaza-Thailand.jpg\\\" width=\\\"650\\\" height=\\\"433\\\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><img class=\\\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2500  \\\" title=\\\"suite-Plaza-Thailand\\\" alt=\\\"suite-Plaza-Thailand\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/suite-Plaza-Thailand.jpg\\\" width=\\\"650\\\" height=\\\"433\\\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><img class=\\\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2500  \\\" title=\\\"BAthroom-Suite-Plaza-Thailand\\\" alt=\\\"BAthroom-Suite-Plaza-Thailand\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/BAthroom-Suite-Plaza-Thailand.jpg\\\" width=\\\"650\\\" height=\\\"433\\\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In addition to this, the hotel had many other rooms and restaurants flexible for various smaller functions.\u00a0 The perfect hotel for a glam wedding reception!<\/p>\n<p>The second stop for the day was the Four Seasons Hotel, Bangkok. What I loved about this hotel was it\u2019s contemporary look combined with the traditional Thai style. The stunning designs on Thai silk were done by one of Thailand\u2019s foremost painters \u2013 the late Acharn Paiboon Suwannakudt. Fabrics by Jim Thompson adorn the furnishings and are another unique feature of the hotel.<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><img class=\\\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2500  \\\" title=\\\"wedding-suite-four-seasons-bangkok\\\" alt=\\\"wedding-suite-four-seasons-bangkok\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/wedding-suite-four-seasons-bangkok.jpg\\\" width=\\\"650\\\" height=\\\"488\\\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><img class=\\\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2500  \\\" title=\\\"living and dining-suite-four-seasons\\\" alt=\\\"living and dining-suite-four-seasons\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/living-and-dining-suite-four-seasons.jpg\\\" width=\\\"650\\\" height=\\\"488\\\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><img class=\\\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2500  \\\" title=\\\"work-room-four-seasons-thailand\\\" alt=\\\"work-room-four-seasons-thailand\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/work-room-four-seasons-thailand.jpg\\\" width=\\\"650\\\" height=\\\"508\\\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><img class=\\\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2500  \\\" title=\\\"outside-fourseasons-thailand\\\" alt=\\\"outside-fourseasons-thailand\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/outside-fourseasons-thailand.jpg\\\" width=\\\"650\\\" height=\\\"819\\\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><img class=\\\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2500  \\\" title=\\\"suite-four-seasons-bangkok\\\" alt=\\\"suite-four-seasons-bangkok\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/suite-four-seasons-bangkok.jpg\\\" width=\\\"650\\\" height=\\\"488\\\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><img class=\\\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2500  \\\" title=\\\"Suite-master-bedroom-Four-Seasons\\\" alt=\\\"Suite-master-bedroom-Four-Seasons\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/Suite-master-bedroom-Four-Seasons.jpg\\\" width=\\\"650\\\" height=\\\"488\\\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><img class=\\\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2500  \\\" title=\\\"indian-wedding-decor-thailand\\\" alt=\\\"indian-wedding-decor-thailand\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/indian-wedding-decor-thailand.jpg\\\" width=\\\"650\\\" height=\\\"867\\\" \/><\/p>\n<p>There was a surprise in store, the hotel management had created a mini decorated area in one of its pre function spaces to really give a feel of the venue and the elaborate wedding d\u00e9cor that can be done. The variety and the use of orchids in different ways were just fabulous!<\/p>\n<p>The Four Seasons in Bangkok is one of the city\u2019s most popular locations for up to 1000 guests for weddings and other celebrations. The Ballroom here is classic in style with, once again the hand painted murals, unique to the hotel. Here is what I loved \u2013 the 92 piece crystal, Thai style Waterford chandelier with additional track and down lights. The hotel also has a number of other rooms to host other wedding related events. A stunning hotel, extremely friendly people and delectable food \u2013 Four Seasons Bangkok is definitely a top choice for weddings! Oh, and I love the little gift they gave me \u2013 a Tom Yum gift pack with exotic ingredients and recipe \u2013 ready to make! That was so thoughtful :-)<\/p>\n<p>The Grand Hyatt Erawan Bangkok is located in the business district, surrounded by prime shopping centers.
