From start to finish the Aston has made our reception a dream come true. Their communication & attention to detail has been paramount. This has allowed us to relax and stay stress-free through the entire planning process. On the night everything ran like clockwork, so all we can say is a HUGE THANK YOU! to everyone involved to make our night at the Aston one of the most memorable experiences of our life.
Lots of Love, Chris and Amanda

The staff were amazing and the service was incredible couldn’t of asked for anything more from the Aston team.
It rained during our reception and the Aston team were fast & helpful to move us undercover. The decorations were absolutely beautiful, like a dream come true…
Very professional, great food, great service all around.
A big thank you to Dewi, she is amazing and very helpful. She organized through email and answered everything I needed to know. Very happy.
Thank you to the Aston team for making our day something special and a day we will never forget…

As a well travelled couple who have spent years working in the service industry we can both be a little dubious of testimonials that seem to paint a picture of perfection, we know there is the potential for so much to go wrong in the execution of an event such as a wedding to be held overseas. So it is humbly and gratefully that we note the efficiency, accessibility and professionalism of the Aston team. From the outset Leony and her team had everything in control ensuring we covered off on every detail, from what was required of us legally to what colour and type of flowers we would prefer to be scattered down the aisle. We were ushered through the entire arrangement process and while they took care of everything we were given control, which made for a superbly hassle free experience. The unseasonal rain meant we couldn’t have our ceremony on the beach or have dinner in the garden but we were by no means disappointed with the fall back option. Widya and her team fulfilled our request for the ceremony layout and created a warm and intimate space in a lobby area of the hotel. They then transformed the breakfast buffet area into a stunning setting where we and 80 guests feasted on exquisite food from a menu we were able to modify. I didn’t even notice the waiter’s service through dinner which means it was perfect. All of our expectations were met and we have absolutely no regrets. We look back on our wedding day at the Aston and we are stoked we chose to share it with our beloved people there. With all our hearts we say thanks.

Leony was fantastic. She put in alot of work prior to our wedding. My wedding felt like a fairy tale and I could of not dreamed of it being any better. The staff at the Aston are lovely and understanding. Every single wedding guest enjoyed themselves and many plan to return to the Aston. The honeymoon suite is to die for, definitely worth at least one night stay.
A big thankyou to Leony and her team, it was truely magical.

Leony, Dewi, and all the Aston Spa staff, thanks for a wonderful day we will never forget.
From the moment we decided to get married last year you guys managed to organize a stress free well planned wedding. You take care of all planning + little things that made in “our perfect day”.
The eye for detail like the personalized menu + leaf signed name tag, the petals, the beautiful Balinese decorations, the beautiful little dancers, the location, the scenery + view clear the ocean was very romantic which made me cry along with the guests.
Finally, the Indonesian buffet was excellent and the staff was very attentive. We want to come back every year to get married again & again & again….
Will see you next year.
Love,
Sue + Martin

From the moment we first contacted the Aston Bali to organize our wedding we received excellent assistance and service.
Emails, telephone calls and meetings with the hotels wedding planners upon our arrival ensured our day was one never to be forgotten as we get married in glorious sunshine on the beach!

We had our wedding at the Aston on 18 Aug and it was truly amazing! We had 35 guests who all
stayed at the hotel and everyone loved it. They even organised a wheelchair for my elderly
grandmother on independence day to take her to the Safari Park in. Leony our wedding coordinator
was fantastic and all our dreams were met.
We had a room that wasn’t renovated and it was nice but
not as nice a the renovated ones so make sure you ask for one of those.
The pool bar has happy hour
and made awesome cocktails. Breakfast was nice and lots of choice. The snacks during the day are
good although we never ate at the hotel for dinner (except for the wedding reception and that food
was great).
Would I stay at the Aston again..................WELL WE CANT WAIT TO GO BACK!
Leony & Dewi,
Thank you so much fro our wonderful day!
It was perfect. A wedding just what we wanted and asked for. All your help and service will be remembered for many years to come. And we love this hotel and will be back soon.
Thank you.
Regards,

It’s almost impossible to describe how is it to get married on the Beach in Bali with local tradition and decoration.
The crew in charge of our wedding arrangements at Aston Bali Resort & Spa made it easy and special.
They were absolutely kind and supportive at all times.
We would like to thank all the staff and the crew that made our wedding ceremony so perfect and beautiful!
Special thanks to Ms. Widya who made sure that all our special requests were correctly done.
We just say to everyone who wants to get married and have a special moment in their live: -“get married in Bali”
Thank you Ms. Leony, Ms. Widya and Ms. Dewi.

Our wedding at the Aston Bali, was, in general, a great experience. The staffs were very generous with their tame and really tried to make us as comfortable as possible. Much appreciated!
We stayed in the Honeymoon Suite which was amazing! Well worth the extra!
As for wedding ceremony itself, it would have been nice to have a rehearsal the day before so we would have known what to expect. That said it wasn’t too difficult to figure out. We were surprised about the numbers of strangers who watched and took photos. More privacy would have been nice.
All in al, we had a great experience and we would highly recommend this to anyone considering getting married in Nusa Dua. Thank you!

Aston Bali and all his staffs have exceeded our expectation from the beginning (when we contacted them a few months ago) to the end – when we finally married here!
Staffs were very friendly paying much attention to our needs and wishes and did EVERYTHING what we agreed in the best way!
Room was brilliant, the pool, food (breakfast & our wedding dinner) very delicious and nice served.
Our wedding romantic dinner was the best we have had in our life.
In terms of meals in decorations, I’m sure that Aston Bali has very little competition here-in Nusa Dua – comparing to other hotels by excellent.

We stayed at the Aston for 7 nights, from the moment we arrived we were at total peace with the hotel and surroundings. We had organized our wedding here and without a doubt, I would highly recommend anyone to experience the beauty and paradise that the resort has to offer.
The staff were by far the nicest and helpful that I have ever experienced. We were liaising with Leony & Widya and let me tell you they removed all stress & strain and made it a trip to remember for the rest of our lives.

I had my wedding at the Aston and it was the most beautiful and amazing experience of my life. I had 70 friends and family attend, of which 50 stayed in this hotel, everyone of them loved this hotel. The staff were fantastic, food was delicious and rooms were spacious. I stayed in the honeymoon sweet and it has the most incredible view and was a stunningly beautiful room.
The wedding planner for the hotel (Leony) was fantastic, she was so efficient and it was thru email, she listened and met all my desires for the wedding.
The food for the wedding was incredible, no one was waiting for beverages, the cake was beautiful.
As you can see by the photos attached the decorations were stunning. I can not fault my wedding..I love this hotel, wish i was back there!!!!

At first we are absolutely grateful to the excellent support, we received from Aston’s working team, especially Leony. The total process of our wedding was organized excellent with the beginning of support in styling and dressing my bride.
Our wedding Suite was a dream existing of two generous room including Ocean View, one dressing room and twp bathrooms. The whole ceremony with a wonderful decoration with flowers on the beach, the traditional Balinese music and dancing with the two sweetest young Balinese girls, the typical cake for European wedding ceremonies… absolutely everything was organized excellent by the team.
It had been great relief for us to have Leony as a contact partner during the whole process of organization of this most important day in our life. We will never forget this loved and touched moments and we are sure, that wedding anniversary will be a reason to come back.

We got married in Aston Bali in January. The wedding was magnificient. All the support we received -especially from Leony (MICE assistant) - were more than we expected. Small surprises, tiny details, special focus and attention ensured the feellings on our big day.

The service itself about following a good deal of planning and preparation. We could not have done it all without the help and willing assistance of the Aston Bali Team.
Set in beautiful garden with the pool and beach as a back cloth the service was simple and beautiful.
Everything from the music, the setting, and the people were wonderful.
We followed it all with a romantic dinner for 2 on the beach which was perfect.
We can not praise the Honeymoon Suite too highly. It’s a great setting, spacious, pretty and very special.
You can not do better than have your wedding at the Aston Bali Resort & Spa.

An intimate, personal, exotic and memorable event is what we wanted for our wedding. We already knew Aston Bali is a special place because we had stayed their before.
From the moment we enquired Leony and her team were attentive, quick to respond, polite and professional.
In the days leading up to the wedding leony was in regular contact to ensure we were comfortable with the arrangements.
On the day of our wedding we could see the preparations being set up in the beautiful gardens of the Aston resort. All the staff knew we were getting married and were so happy for us.
The ceremony was beautiful. The traditional Balinese music and gorgeous Balinese flower girls made it so exotic.. Resort guests as well as our family and friends gathered around.
The beach is so close we were able to get wonderful photos as the sun was setting. It really is paradise and we felt special.
After the ceremony we had the reception by the pool. The evening was warm and tropical. The food was excellent and the service friendly. They even surprised us with some live music.
My wife and I are harsh critics but we could not fault Aston Bali. They really did make the celebration of our love something special.
