About InterContinental Koh Samui
InterContinental Koh Samui at Taling Ngam faces the Five Islands from a hillside running to the beach — the sunset-side resort with a room count and lawns for an Indian wedding of 100 to 250. The registry carries no capacity figure; the chart is the first request.
Panigrahana designs it for the sunset over the islands, with the beach lawn low and lit.

Can we bring our own decorator to InterContinental Koh Samui?
InterContinental Koh Samui, Taling Ngam, Thailand, like most premium Thailand venues, works with an empanelled list, and outside decorators are generally admitted subject to the venue's approval and access rules. Panigrahana handles that approval, load-in timing and setup coordination, with decor load-in typically 24–48 hours before the first function. The result is a mandap and set designed for InterContinental Koh Samui's actual dimensions rather than a catalogue package.
