1. The Ahava

Industrial chic has been a big trend for weddings in recent years, and The Ahava is the perfect venue to bring it to life. The production hall’s minimalist and utilitarian design doesn’t compromise on grandeur, boasting a six-meter-tall wooden door that is framed by floor-to-ceiling glass panels that offer a glimpse into the space.

Inside the atrium, minimalist chandeliers light the aisle towards the stage for a grand entrance. The Ahava also offers a reception area for guests, a suite for the couple, and a rooftop garden for pre-event cocktails.

2. Royal Albatross

Why limit yourself to land when you can take the wedding to the seas? Singapore’s largest yacht for charter, the Royal Albatross has a maximum capacity of 130 guests so you can invite everyone that matters. Imagine exchanging your vows on the outdoor deck at sunset, with your wedding veil billowing in the sea breeze—how’s that for a dream wedding?

Below the deck, the air-conditioned Grand Salon offers an escape from the elements, and is fitted with a bar, AV music stage, and a 65-inch television for entertainment. A luxurious Owner’s Cabin with ocean views offers the newlyweds some privacy, while friends and family can rest in the four en-suite guest cabins.

3. Capitol Theatre

If you have a penchant for the dramatic, consider holding your wedding in this monumental theatre, first built in 1929. An Art Deco icon in the heart of Singapore, the venue marries modern luxuries with old-world glamour, boasting a rotational floor system for various seating configurations as well as state-of-the-art audio-visual systems—it is a theatre, after all.

For the Hollywood treatment, roll out a red carpet for your show-stopping entrance. The theatre can accommodate 977 guests.
