Marina Barrage Pre Wedding Photoshoot
8 Marina Gardens Dr, Singapore 018951
When you step foot on the grounds of Marina Barrage, simplicity and humbleness greet you. It is a dream of our founding father, the late Mr Lee Kuan Yew, that took two to three decades and a painstaking amount of planning and resources to realise.
It is quite the impressive achievement for a tiny little dot like Singapore.
At Marina Barrage, experiment with the camera at different places. You’ll find yourself with spectacular backdrops of both man-made buildings and nature’s wonder. At one sweet spot, you might even find yourself with the full suite of Singapore’s urban skyline.
A Clean, Green & Lively Venue
When most people think of Marina Barrage, an image of families picnicking and leisurely flying kites often pop up in their minds. More than a lifestyle spot, did you know that it also contributes to our country’s supply of water and helps prevent floods in the areas surrounding the Bay? Talk about extensive planning!
Undeniably, it is a beautiful green space with immaculate lawn and serene and safe waters that draws throngs of people, not just families but also couples and fitness enthusiasts, especially on the weekends and public holidays. Best of all, it’s clean and free for all to enter.
Iconic Landmarks
Chill recreational space and strategic water security purposes aside, Marina Barrage makes for an ideal pre-wedding photoshoot spot — for a few reasons.
On the roof of Marina Barrage where there’s an open air green space, you can easily capture breathtaking views of Singapore’s unique skyline, comprising the ultra-modern ArtScience Museum, the iconic Marina Bay Sands, as well as the sleek Singapore Flyer.
While some go for the Eiffel Tower, others for Santorini, why not try something less conventional and more affordable? They are all are equally iconic and beautiful spots!
Tips For Your Photoshoot
Since we are situated just along the Equator, it’s impossible to escape the tropical heat. However, a good tradeoff would be having azure skies and cotton-like clouds in the background.
Should you decide to set your pre-wedding photoshoot at Marina Barrage, remember to prepare portable fans, umbrellas and cool drinks to help you keep cool in the heat.
FAQs
Take the public train to Tanjong Pagar station. Walk to the front of International Plaza and take bus 400.
Another option would be to take the public train to Marina Bay or Downtown MRT stations. Walk to Marina Bay Financial Centre and take bus 400.
However, it’s your photoshoot day. Hail a cab, or drive there! It’s easier on you, especially when you have outfits and all to carry.
There’s the Barrage Cove that sells snacks and beverages. However, if you’re going to stay long, it’s good to pack some sandwiches or light bites and packet drinks, just in case your stomach starts to rumble halfway through the photoshoot!
Tell us your dream and we’ll capture its very essence in picture form.
You’d be surprised to know that the outdoor area, which gets you the highly rated expansive view of Singapore’s modern cityscape, is open 24 hours a day! You can head there as early as 5am to prepare so as to catch the first break of dawn, or as late as 5pm to capture the setting sun.
Nope! So long as it is a personal and non-commercial photoshoot, such as wedding-related ones, you need not apply for a permit to take photos there.
By the end of the ceremony, you’ll likely have run the whole gamut of emotions, from tearing up with happiness to quivering with nervous excitement to blushing with shyness. Our photographers will intuit your mood and be discreet during the ceremony, allowing you to share these feelings and intimate moments privately with loved ones while capturing them in exquisite detail.
Smoking is not allowed on the grounds of Marina Barrage. There are also no designated smoking spots available there. Should you like to include your pet in the shoot, you’d be pleased to know that pets are allowed on the outdoor area, except at the Water Playground.
