Hannah & Garth, Bali - The Ungasan Clifftop Resort
Hannah Polites and Garth's Enchanting Bali Wedding
If you’ve spent any time on Instagram, you’ve likely admired the glowing happiness and vibrant energy of Hannah Polites. Known for her inspiring lifestyle, Hannah is also a devoted mother and made an incredibly stunning bride. Her wedding to Garth was a magical celebration and changed the landscape of luxury wedding in Bali. The wedding went Viral around the world and became the inspiration of many brides who loved the luxurious elegance.
The Venue: Ungasan Clifftop Resort
Hannah and Garth's wedding journey began while traveling in Bali, where they discovered the Ungasan Clifftop Resort. The moment they laid eyes on Villa Tamarama, they knew it was the perfect venue. You can’t find a better Bridal Villa in Balu with its colonial architecture, lush gardens, and panoramic ocean views, the villa set the tone for a romantic and luxurious destination wedding.
The Gowns: A Tale of Two Dresses
Hannah dazzled in two custom Pallas Couture gowns, each designed over 12 months and eight fittings. Her first dress featured a dramatic full skirt with a high slit, a long train, and intricate beadwork—a fairytale gown fit for the occasion. For the reception, she changed into a body-hugging gown with a low scoop back and a lace design that sparkled under the evening lights. Both gowns were complemented by nude YSL tribute pumps, and Pallas Couture even crafted a matching flower girl dress for her daughter.
The Wedding Day: Style and Atmosphere
Hannah envisioned their wedding as romantic, timeless, and enchanting. The ceremony took place on a cliffside, framed by a stunning circular floral arch with pampas grass and white blooms. Guests were welcomed by a lush greenery and floral wall adorned with the couple’s rose-gold initials. The perfect spot for photos. The reception, held at Selatan Lawn was nothing short of magical. French rose-gold chandeliers, cascading floral arrangements, and garlands created a dreamlike ambiance. The rose gold menus, name cards and signage were the fist of its kind and started te acrylic trend that is now a normal everyday feature at most weddings.
The couple’s theme—ivory, greenery, and blush tones—was woven through every detail. Touches of rose gold added elegance, appearing in the signage, candle holders, and even the monogrammed dance floor.
Personal Touches
Travel was a central theme, reflecting the couple’s shared passion. Table names highlighted their Favorite destinations, while the seating chart invited guests to “Find your destination.” Rose-gold world-themed coasters served as place cards, and engraved luggage tags were given as gifts.
Food, Drinks, and Entertainment
Guests were treated to passionfruit mocktails upon arrival, followed by an array of canapés, free-flow champagne, and signature cocktails: espresso martinis and strawberry caipiroskas. Dinner featured an international buffet, and the centrepiece was a five-tier rose-gold and ivory floral cake with raspberry and caramel mud flavours.
Entertainment included choreographed dances with Garth and Hannahs father, Balinese fire dancers, and a surprise fireworks display during the couple’s first dance to Ed Sheeran’s “Perfect.” Garth’s thoughtful surprise created an unforgettable moment as the couple stood cliffside, surrounded by loved ones.
A Perfect Day
The day was a perfect reflection of their love, style, and shared experiences. One of the most cherished moments was watching fireworks together, a surprise orchestrated by Garth that added an extra touch of magic to an already extraordinary day.
Global Weddings was honoured to bring Hannah and Garth’s vision to life, creating a celebration as beautiful and unique as their love story. Their wedding was a testament to the power of thoughtful design, meticulous planning, and the joy of sharing unforgettable moments with those who matter most.
