Love knows no boundaries, and Thailand has long been a welcoming destination for LGBTQ+ couples. It’s one of the most inclusive destinations for LGBT weddings, offering breathtaking venues, professional wedding planning services, and a culture of warmth and hospitality. As a leading wedding hotel in Pattaya, Holiday Inn Pattaya offers customisable LGBT weddings so every detail reflects the couple’s unique love story.
Current Legal Status of Same-Sex Marriage in Thailand
The country is widely considered one of the most LGBTQ+-friendly nations in Asia, with strong public support for legal reforms. Same-sex marriage in Thailand has gained attention as it recently became the third Asian country to pass a law recognising same-sex unions in January 2025. This monumental move means Thailand has fully legalised same-sex marriage for Thai citizens or foreigners.
