A growing number of casino resorts are betting on the wedding business as a way to diversify non-gaming revenue, Macau Business reports in our March issue.
Where once the hospitality industry put on weddings mainly for Macau couples, it is now trying to turn the city into a leading option for couples from elsewhere, seeking a novel place to tie the knot.
And it is working: an increasing number of couples from the mainland, Hong Kong, India, Thailand and Taiwan are choosing to say “I do” in Macau.
The industry’s efforts are assisted by subsidies that the Macau Government Tourist Office has offered since November to couples from abroad marrying here.
The domestic market for weddings is also a lucrative business. The number of marriages recorded has increased steadily since 2006. Last year, 3,783 weddings took place, a 6.7-percent increase over 2011.
