Unique Locations For A Destination Wedding

Modern Wedding Posted: February 1, 2020

Looking for a show-stopping location that is completely out of the box? Well imagine this -  your friends and family all gathered together to celebrate the best day of your life in a breathtaking location abroad. Whether it’s sipping on Pina Coladas before the wedding in the sun or being surrounded by a snowy winter wonderland wedding, these unique destination wedding locations are sure to impress.

Via Liam Collard

Monaco, French Riviera…

Dive into pure luxury in a place that has been the home of so many royal weddings over the years. Princess Grace had a fairytale wedding at the St. Nicholas Cathedral and Beatrice Borromeo at the Palace of Monaco. The incredible landscapes and lavish city-life means your array of venues to choose from ranges from a clifftop viewpoint to a private villa with ocean views to a grand manor house.

Via Peter And Veronika

Cusco, Peru…

Once the capital of the Incan Empire, Cusco is a stunning city in the heart of the Andes. Filled with not only a rich history but a vibrant local culture, weddings in Peru are known for their use of colour in every possible aspect of the day. Plus, with all the incredible scenery, the photographs will be seriously spectacular!

Valley Of Fire, Las Vegas...

The aesthetic of desert weddings is becoming incredibly popular for their rich colours and unique charm. Embrace the gorgeous natural décor of cactus and dried plants, hugely popular in decor trends! Your whole wedding celebration could be hosted in fabulous Vegas, with the Las Vegas strip only being an hour away!

Via Sunnie Heers

Lake Bled, Slovenia...

You've probably already seen this one on a postcard. In Europe, it is one of the most iconic destinations for engagements, elopements or weddings and it can very easily be seen why. Lake Bled, situated just an hour from Slovenia’s capital, seriously is straight out of a fairytale. Choose a lakeside affair or a celebration up in the Alps with a breathtaking view of the whole lake!

Via Monde Et Mode

Java, Indonesia...

For that tropical relaxation, Indonesia is a lively and diverse country that has so many options for a destination wedding. Before your vendors, you would need to start by choosing one spot across hundreds of islands. Java holds the best of both worlds, having the accessibility of a big city but the serenity of the coast. Plus, close to Bali means your honeymoon is only a short flight away!

Via Lukas Piatek

Banff, Canada…

For our lovers of the cold, Banff has got to be one of the most spectacular places on Earth. As newlyweds, you can snuggle up with a fire and soak in the Canadian winter wonderland you'll be surrounded by. With mountaintop venues, fine dining options, and the truly incredible Fairmont Chateaux hotel right on Lake Louise, overlooking the breathtaking snow-covered scenery, you couldn’t ask for much more!

Via Terry Photo Co

Jerusalem, Israel…

Anyone who visits Jerusalem says there is a magical atmosphere that engulfs the city. With its deep religious history, you can transform your destination wedding into a symbolic and memorable experience that will be unforgettable for you and your guests. Overlook the whole of the Old City to say your I do’s, or go beachside with camel rides to truly have the best experience possible!

Via Jonathan Hannah

Emerald Coast, Nicaragua...

From the moment your flight descends through the clouds and over the 30-mile stretch of unspoiled Pacific coastline, you’ll know you’ve found the hidden gem of the Emerald Coast. The coastline is almost completely untouched and provides the perfect intimate beach setting for your ceremony, followed by a reception under the stars. This secluded and tranquil spot will leave your guests thinking they've attended a celebrity wedding!

Via Mukul Resort

Swiss Alps, Switzerland...

The hills are alive with the sound of love! Who wouldn’t fall in love with the beautiful Swiss Alps? The gorgeous countryside and the snowy mountain peaks make the Swiss Alps the perfect wedding destination any time of year, whether it's for a wintry whimsical fairytale or a sunny outdoor celebration in the vineyards. Plus, being in the centre of Europe means a honeymoon to Paris isn't out of the question!
