Your destination wedding deserves to be everything you’ve ever dreamed of — and more. With such a rich variety of stunning winter wedding destinations in Europe, the hardest part isn’t finding the perfect place, but choosing between so many magical options.
Whether you’re searching for snowy peaks, hidden alpine villages or warm winter sun, here are our favourite locations for an unforgettable winter wedding.
For the Stunning Snowy Landscapes
Hallstatt, Austria
Average Winter Temperature: 3°C
Hallstatt is a picture-perfect alpine town nestled beside Lake Hallstatt in Austria’s Salzkammergut region. Though not a common choice for weddings yet, this rustic, serene village is a hidden gem offering authentic charm, dramatic lake views, and a peaceful winter setting.
Lapland, Finland
Average Winter Temperature: -6°C
No winter destination list is complete without Lapland — the home of snow, reindeer, igloo hotels, and the Northern Lights. Its magical, frozen scenery is perfect for a fairy-tale wedding, especially if you’re dreaming of a once-in-a-lifetime elopement or intimate snowy celebration.
Zakopane, Poland
Average Winter Temperature: 2°C
Located at the base of the Tatra Mountains, Zakopane is Poland’s winter capital. Known for its ski resorts, wooden villas and scenic charm, it offers a romantic, snow-covered backdrop and authentic mountain culture — ideal for couples wanting a unique and off-the-beaten-path destination wedding.
For the Wonderful Winter Sun
Marrakech, Morocco
Average Winter Temperature: 20°C
If snowy mountains aren’t your thing, head south for sunshine and exotic luxury. Marrakech is an enchanting city filled with history, architecture, and colour. Host your wedding in iconic venues like La Mamounia, and treat your guests to warm winter skies and unforgettable culture.
Portofino, Italy
Average Winter Temperature: 15°C
Italy is always a good idea — and Portofino in winter offers sunshine, coastal beauty and classic romance. This Mediterranean gem features dramatic cliffs, quaint harbours and timeless elegance. For milder weather, head away from the Alps to places like the Amalfi Coast or southern Italy.
Santorini, Greece
Average Winter Temperature: 15°C
Famous for its blue-domed churches and whitewashed houses, Santorini remains sun-kissed even in winter. It’s a spectacular spot for intimate celebrations with views that never end.
