Marry in Uluwatu.
Uluwatu, on Bali's southern Bukit peninsula, is the island's most dramatic wedding setting — limestone cliffs falling to the Indian Ocean, sunset ceremonies on glass-walled chapels and cliff-edge lawns. Its resorts and private estates suit celebrations from intimate cliff dinners to receptions of several hundred, with the clearest skies from April to October.
