Finally, Dream Themes are specifically designed for couples who wish to create the ultimate fantasy wedding.

Every wedding package includes one night complimentary stay in a deluxe room, room service breakfast, complimentary fruit platter, and a Spa package for two. What’s more, each wedding packages comes with a two-night stay at any InterContinental Hotels Group in Manila, Clark, Pampanga; Bali, Indonesia; Bangkok, Thailand; Phuket, Thailand, or Hanoi, Vietnam.
