Choosing the perfect venue is one of the biggest decisions you’ll have to make when you’re planning your big day. There are so many different criteria to consider when deciding where to get married. Some people want to keep it close to home, especially if they’re inviting a lot of people. But if you want something really different, or have a location that holds special meaning to you, you could get married abroad and have a destination wedding instead. Another benefit of getting married in another country is that you can roll the wedding and the honeymoon into one.
Here are the most romantic locations around the world for your destination wedding.
Italy
Italy is a country known for being romantic and they also have great food and wine, which is an added bonus when you’re planning the wedding. Italy is filled with beautiful landscapes and romantic cities where you can host your wedding.
Rome is a great choice because there are some incredible cultural and historical landmarks and you can find a great photographer in Rome. Venice is another great choice and is known for being one of the most romantic cities in the entire world. You and your new spouse can take a gondola ride around the city after you get married.
If you don’t like the idea of a city wedding and want something a little more picturesque, there are some great beach destinations in Italy as well. The Amalfi coast in particular is an idyllic setting for a wedding.
Cyprus
If it’s sun, sea, and sand that you’re looking for then Cyprus is the place for you. It gets plenty of Mediterranean sun and the beaches there are absolutely stunning. Cyprus is also known for its great nightlife so if you and your partner are looking for a fun-filled party honeymoon, this is the place to go.
Brazil
People who want to get married somewhere with awe inspiring natural landscapes would be well suited to South America. The rich, vibrant jungles or the Andes Mountains are the perfect backdrop for a wedding and if you head to Brazil, you can experience everything else the country has to offer. The carnivals they hold in Brazil are definitely worth being a part of so if you’re planning on getting married in Brazil, you should try to plan the honeymoon when they’re on. The only issue you might have is getting a marriage license out there.
Asia
Some couples are looking for adventure when they’re choosing a wedding destination. If that sounds like you, look no further than Asia. If you avoid the big backpacking destinations like Thailand, you can find some beautiful quiet spots for great beach weddings in Asia. The other major benefit is the cost. While the flights out to Asia can be fairly expensive, the cost of living out there is very cheap. That means you can put the wedding on without having to spend anywhere near as much as you would if you did it at home.
These are just some of the incredible wedding destinations around the world that can make your big day more memorable.
