HAPPY COUPLE OF MONTH Jessica & Jeroen testimonial: "After we formally got married in Europe, we really wanted a traditional blessing ceremony on Bali. We have a special connection with Indonesia because our grand parents were both born Indonesia. Therefor we wanted a traditional Balinese blessing ceremony, to honour and remember our heritage. After the first selection of hotels, we found that Kamandalu had by far the best location and proposed a ceremony we really wanted. Because we live in the Netherlands and flying over to arrange the blessing ceremony wasn't an option, we needed to rely on the organization and communication skills of Kamandalu. Kamandalu managed it all perfectly. The day itself was what we dreamed about and more. A memory we will treasure forever. We would therefor thank Kamandalu for making our dream come true. Warm regards from The Netherlands, Jessica & Jeroen"
