Real Destination Weddings

There’s just something about alpine scenery. I don’t care if it’s snow-capped or sunlit, sprinkled with wildflowers, or twinkling with Christmas lights, the Alps are spectacular at any time of the year.

Today’s couple fell in love with the idea of a mountaintop wedding in the Austrian Alps and, spoiler alert, their panoramic wedding venue at 1,600m did not disappoint.

We’re heading off the beaten path today, away from all of Croatia’s usual suspects …. Hvar, Dubrovnik, Split and so on.  This couple chose to hold their wedding in Šibenik, a quaint little historic town on the Adriatic coast, about two hours north of Split by bus.

Today’s bride, Sara was kind enough to talk to us about her experience of planning a destination wedding on Lake Como, and she has some wise words for anyone planning a destination wedding in general …

Jessica and Joe live in New York.  They got engaged in Portugal and were married in Spain.  Their whole international love affair came together at a beautiful seaside property in Barcelona, complete with a Brazilian Congo line and a late-night disco under the stars!

It’s always a good day to pay a visit to Italy’s stunning Dolomites!  Today we’re tagging along on Tihomir and Petya’s wedding day, with Cat from Wild Connections Photography as our guide.

It goes without saying that an outdoor wedding venue requires a backup plan.  An outdoor wedding venue in Iceland however, typically requires a plan B, C, D and beyond!
