Three unique wedding photoshoot locations in Malaysia

Putrajaya, modern and attractive

Located approximately 30 km south of Kuala Lumpur, the administrative capital of Putrajaya stands out with its garden city architecture, where over 70% of its area is covered by lush greenery and canals. Designed as a model city, Putrajaya showcases the best of Malaysian design and architecture. Therefore, the city is also chosen as one of the most suitable locations for wedding photoshoots.

You can choose famous photo spots for your album such as: Pusat Konvensyen Antarabangsa Putrajaya (Putrajaya International Convention Center – PICC), Palace of Justice - Istana Kehakiman (Supreme Court), Perbadanan Government Complex, or Putra Mosque, one of the most modern mosques in the world, reflected in the waters of Putra Lake. Putrajaya will make your wedding photos softer and more charming with its modern bridges crossing the lake, such as the Seri Wawasan Bridge, Putra Bridge, and many other elegant suspension bridges spanning Putra Lake, the heart of the city, where many couples stop to capture magnificent photos at sunset.

Kuala Lumpur is captivating in its own unique way.

To enrich your wedding album, Kuala Lumpur is an excellent choice, thanks to its unique charm and distinctive architecture that blends Eastern and Western styles. Besides the famous Petronas Twin Towers, you can add other notable landmarks to your itinerary, such as Merdaka Square, home to the striking 1897 Sultan Abdul Samad Building with its red and white brickwork, intricate dome, arched watchtower, and 41-meter-tall clock tower, or the nearby National Textile Museum of Malaysia.

The Kuala Lumpur Railway Station building, a charming colonial building, blends Eastern and Western architectural influences, including Moorish style (designed by architect AB Hubbock) and Indian style.

Furthermore, the National Library, the Istana Budaya National Theatre, the Muzium Negara National Museum, and the Istana Negara Royal Palace are also quite popular photo spots in the city.

To make your wedding photos more natural, you can hold hands with your partner, smiling brightly, and stroll along the bustling Bukit Bintang pedestrian street.

Private and romantic getaway on Langkawi Island.

If couples want more private photo opportunities combined with their honeymoon, they should plan their trip to Langkawi now, as the best time to visit Eagle Island is from October to March of the following year.

At Oriental Village, seize the moment to stand together on the Sky Bridge, admiring and immersing yourselves in the majestic beauty of nature, or spontaneously stop to take photos while driving along the coastal road. The lush green scenery acts as a catalyst for couples to freely pose and express their sincere love for each other.

Don't forget to visit the Kuah administrative center, home to Eagle Square, considered the island's iconic landmark, prominently located near the waterfront. It's also a popular spot for couples to capture stunning wedding photos at sunset, with the sun sparkling on the waves.

You can also book a photoshoot package at the most beautiful 5-star resorts on the island, featuring private beaches with unique and luxurious architectural designs, or try something unconventional with underwater photos taken in one of the island's most stunning swimming pools. Some luxury hotels offering wedding photoshoot packages include: The Danna Langkawi Hotel with its infinity pool overlooking the beautiful beach; Andaman Resort, designed in a palatial style, with villas all having private pools and beaches; Meritus Pelangi Beach Resort & Spa, with its rooms entirely made of wood, creating a close connection with nature; and Four Season Hotel & Resort, boasting a stunning emerald green beach and beautiful rooms and bungalows that will add a special touch to your photos.
