Thailand Underwater Wedding 2009, Trang Underwater Wedding
As for a celebrations to love season, I’d like to make a little issue about the coming Valentine’s Day. I saw this article in one of Thailand’s travel website and thought it might be interesting to post here to expand this unique event. People seems to find ways to fulfill their interests, and underwater wedding is another option for those who falls in love of diving and want to enrich their marriage life with some fun. This article is written by Som. Next of my post will be filled with Valentine’s atmosphere in Chiang Mai’s flower market, stay tune!
Each Valentine’s Day since 1996 the world renowned Trang Underwater Wedding Ceremony has become one of Thailand’s most unusual annual events. The 2009 event promises to be more popular than ever and is expected to eclipse the existing Guinness Book World Record for underwater weddings, already held for the same event in 2000.
The 2009 undersea ceremony, held from February 13-15, also promises to add a new twist as same-sex couples are also being welcomed to take part. Gay and lesbian couples will not however be receiving an official marriage certificate since same-sex marriage is still not allowed under Thai law.
Trang, famous as a tropical honeymoon destination, is located about 300 kilometers south of the more heavily touristed Phuket Island. Trang is best known for its laid-back lifestyle, white beaches, clear seas, and the pristine Adaman Islands.
