Frequent travelers and wedding enthusiasts alike, when asked for recommendations of the most magical places in Europe to say your nuptials, are always quick with an answer. Something their answers have in common? The destinations. A fairytale wedding awaits in these European destinations.
Italy
The Amalfi Coast in Italy, with its cliffside villas, colorful fishing towns, and mesmerizing ocean views, makes you feel like you’re starring in a romantic movie. The quaint chapels and picture-perfect backdrops like Positano or Ravello set the scene for a breathtaking ceremony and reception. Don’t be surprised if you spot the occasional celebrity at venues like Hotel Caruso. The divine cuisine, world-famous lemoncello cocktails, and winding cobblestone streets make for an unforgettable guest experience, too.
Scotland
For a more majestic affair, look no further than Scotland’s capital city of Edinburgh. The medieval stone architecture combined with the mysterious rolling hills in the outskirts create no shortage of regal photo-ops for you and your guests. Host your day in a historic castle like Dalhousie followed by a sophisticated dinner at venues like The Witchery. Your loved ones will be wowed exploring the underground vaults and narrow closes between scheduled haggis tastings and scotch tours.
Greece
But what if you prefer something tropical? You can say “I do” on the island of Santorini in Greece! With its white-washed villages perched atop volcanic cliffs, stunning sunsets over cobalt blue waters, and charming boutique hotels carved into the cliffs themselves, Santorini checks all the boxes. Enjoy postcard worthy views as you exchange vows at Panagia Episkopi church before treating guests to Greek fare and dancing as the stars sparkle overhead. We recommend timing your trip for September or October to avoid the peak summer crowds while still enjoying sunny days and cooler evenings.
