Europe is exuberant with gorgeous places that take your breath away, but when planning a destination wedding, you need to be absolutely sure that you’ve picked the right one for you both as a couple. Maybe you’ve already decided on the country but finding an ideal venue might prove difficult, that is why we’ve curated a list of our favourite venues to help you decide. Read further to discover our favourite locations for a dream Summer destination wedding!
Tuscany, Italy
As a rightfully popular destination, Tuscany will charm you with its sunkissed rolling hills, charming cobblestone alleys, and endless vineyards. While it has a plethora of wedding venues, one of our favourites for an extraordinary experience is the Castello di Meleto. This monumental castle from the 11th century is any bride’s fantasy. Historic grandeur that beautifully portrays Italian romanticism, elegant yet charming exterior that is encircled by peaceful nature. It is perfect for both outdoor and indoor dining, but during Summer, an outdoor reception is simply stellar!
Positano, Italy
Continuing towards another Italian gem – the Amalfi Coast. Positano will captivate you with its iconic Italian coastal beauty but if you want to include scenic backdrops for your ceremony, hardly which another venue can match the quaint Villa Treville. Located at the heart of the Amalfi Coast and situated on a cliff, this villa offers an awe-inspiring panorama. It is filled with many garden pathways, columns that celebrate old-world craftsmanship, many plants & vines, and gorgeous terraces from which the horizon seems almost unreal. A dream, right!?
Santorini, Greece
An island landmark of Greece! Whitewashed architecture, blue domes, and azure waters that simply bewitch you! It is no wonder that Santorini is a popular choice for many couples, especially those who want more modern flair to their Summer destination wedding. You can go no wrong when choosing a venue there which overlooks the caldera and volcano, but one of the most astounding views has La Ciel Santorini. Imagine the sun setting and you are saying your “I do’s” with such romantic scenery that is found nowhere else! Looking for a wow-factor? Then this is the magic you’ve been searching for. A true jewel when it comes to choosing a European wedding venue!
Arcangues, France
Let’s take a detour from the typical wedding venues and wander through the charming village of Arcangues! Located in the south-western part of France near the sea, it offers a taste of the true French spirit. As favourite here we list Gaztelur, an astonishing historic mansion that beautifully portrays the Basque countryside. Amazingly, it has three reception choices, but our top choice would be the glass Orangerie. Imagine having a Summer destination wedding there, being surrounded by your closest ones, and enjoying a candlelit dinner under the stellar sky. Magic!
Attard, Malta
Deciding on a venue in this beautiful country that entwines different cultural influences can be challenging since there are so many to choose from! We cannot resist listing Villa Bologna as our favourite though! This opulent Baroque-style villa with its lush gardens and warm climate is a dream come true for any romantic heart! If you are looking for an authentic European wedding venue, this 18th-century villa will certainly spellbind you with its Mediterranean glory.
