Thai Bride Praises Vietnam Wedding Photoshoot Experience

Mint, a well-known Thai content creator behind the account @burntdumplingg, recently shared a series of photos and videos documenting her trip to Ho Chi Minh City for her wedding shoot. "Coming to Vietnam for our wedding photos was the best decision ever. I’m absolutely in love with the result! The team was incredibly professional and attentive to every detail," she expressed after seeing the final product. The shoot took place on June 12 and lasted about seven hours, featuring three distinct concepts. According to Mint, the package cost just over 10,000 baht (approximately 8 million VND), including costumes, hair, makeup, and photography across multiple locations. She was most surprised by the quantity and quality of the photos. The couple received over 1,000 edited images. Mint noted that the price was very reasonable compared to the experience, from the careful planning and transportation to the way the team curated each concept. One of the locations was the Ho Chi Minh City Museum, with its classical architecture, long hallways, and large windows creating a luxurious space. Mint noted that this is a popular spot for wedding photography, with about ten other couples shooting there at the same time. At Phung Hung market, the couple opted for a retro style, with old stalls, faded signs, and an everyday atmosphere creating a nostalgic aesthetic reminiscent of old Saigon. The final concept was shot around 5:00 PM on a street in historic District 5, featuring a pre-arranged vintage pink car that brought a youthful, fun, and romantic vibe to the set. Mint praised not only the final photos but also the Vietnamese crew's work ethic. "Everyone was so friendly and attentive. It felt like I was out taking photos with friends. The shoot was incredibly fun—truly a happy and memorable journey," Mint said. After the shoot, Mint and her partner stayed in Ho Chi Minh City for another four days to sightsee, sample local food, and explore the city’s culture. While planning, they often asked the team for recommendations on eateries, fun spots, and unique local experiences. For the Thai couple, this trip to Vietnam was more than just a successful wedding shoot; it was a way to create new, beautiful memories in a place they have visited many times before and developed a deep love for its landscapes, culture, and people. According to a representative of the photography studio, the couple found them through Instagram and TikTok. The studio noted that the couple's preference for a retro style was a key reason for choosing their team. Before the shoot, the couple viewed many of the studio’s projects on social media, impressed by the natural style, focus on genuine emotion, and storytelling. Trusting the team’s creativity, they gave few specific instructions, preferring to let the studio build the concepts. The meticulousness of the crew and the stunning locations continuously impressed Mint, prompting her to share her experience repeatedly. The team consisted of a photographer, an assistant, and a makeup artist, with careful coordination of schedule, outfits, and travel times. Communication was primarily in English, with a detailed schedule. The couple stayed for four days of vacation after the shoot.
