My wife is looking at registering her wedding company here soon and wants to know what the best option is as far license go. Any info on procedures and prices for a local would be greatly appreciated.
You mean you just want to register a CV or something? Or is there a licence you need to organize weddings?
Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat drinking beer all day.
Just a CV if thats the best option, I don't think there is such a thing as a license to organize weddings
No license is required to be a wedding organizer. The best and the easiest option is to form a Perusahaan Perorangan or Perusahaan Dagang. Assuming she is Indonesian, she will be using her NPWP as her Tax ID for filing income taxes with the government.

BKT, if your wife needs staff, I have a local friend who specialises in bridal makeup and hair styling and works freelance.
I can send you a link to her Facebook page, if your wife's interested. My friend lives in Kuta.
Thanks mats, My wife is learning Bridal Makeup and Hair Styling at Rudy Hadisuwarno at the moment but its always good to have contacts in the business.
Thanks Jk, you don't happen to know the price of a Perusahaan Perorangan do you, I've tried searching the net but couldn't find any info
To apply for Ijin Usaha Perorangan - I suggest you hire a Biro Jasa or a Notaris. When I applied for an UD (Usaha Dagang) for my minimarket 6 years ago my notary in Gianyar charged me Rp 2,000,000 - I though it was very high then, but now she charges 3.5 mill. Usaha Perorangan is the lowest in the hierarchy and is the easiest to form (and dissolve) - I believe the fee should be anywhere from Rp1,000,000 - Rp2,000,000.
Your wife will need the following:
1. Copy NPWP (Tax ID)
2. Copy KTP
3. Copy KK
4. Name of Business
5. 3cm x4cm photo (2)
BKT we didn't use a notaris for our UD, so a little paper work & no fees
our CV we used a notaris & cost 700,000.
Indeed, if you have the time and patience, do it yourself especially for something as simple as Perusahaan Perorangan - It will save you money. Personally, I don't have the time and could not be bothered by Indonesian beaurocracy.
