Vow & Vista · our own wedding, Uluwatu, November 2025An unforgettable wedding.
An unforgettable wedding.
A clearer way to plan yours.
We sourced and negotiated our own Bali wedding, vendor by vendor. Now we read other couples' quotations before they sign.
An independent review of one quotation. It starts with a free 20-minute call; nothing is paid on this website.
The moments you didn't expect
Fire, light, drums, and a claw machine.
Each one was a vendor we found, a quotation we read and a price we negotiated. Press any of them.
Who we are
Wilson and Chloe.
In November 2025 we married on a cliff in Uluwatu, and we sourced much of the wedding ourselves. Wilson is Southeast Asian and speaks Indonesian fluently, so we wrote to vendors in their own language, read every quotation as it was written, compared, negotiated, and made each purchasing decision. A local team coordinated and ran the day itself.
- Vendor research and comparison
- Correspondence in Indonesian
- Quotations reviewed and negotiated
- Guest hotels and villas
- Airport transfers and private cars
- Outings for family, groomsmen and bridesmaids
- Gifts and the diamond-shaped candy
Reading those quotations is where Vow & Vista began. The same lines were unclear in proposal after proposal, and we learned what to ask. The Quote Check is that reading, done for your quotation, before you sign.

Four honest answers
Bespoke advisory
Need more than a second opinion?
For couples who want help researching, comparing or negotiating with Bali vendors, we can discuss a separately scoped advisory engagement: vendor research and comparison, several proposals read side by side, Indonesian-language correspondence, negotiation support.
Scope, deliverables and fee are agreed individually, in writing, and we take on a small number of engagements at a time. Not a planning or execution service: we do not book, pay vendors or run the day.

Behind the magic · what the photographs do not show
Arranging the day was the other half of the work. Three parts of it, and what each taught us about reading a quotation.
Evidence of what we arranged ourselves, not a list of services. The $299 Quote Check reads one quotation; it does not book, arrange or plan.
