Top 5 European Destination Wedding Venues

This is so indulgent, but hey - It can’t hurt to look. I’ve lusted after stunning landscapes, tropical weather and venues oozing with that something special. Here’s a collection of my faves!

This Must Be The Place, Barcelona

Let’s start with a bang! This beautiful venue is just an hour outside of Barcelona and Girona, and was set up by a couple who left London to pursue their dream. This Spanish farmhouse, or ‘finca’ has stood proud since the 14th Century and now plays host to weddings, yoga retreats and parties.

All images courtesy of the venue.

Chateau of Arcangues, French Basque Country

Located close to the Atlantic coast and the Spanish border, this French stately home was the first house of the Lord of Arcangues and Curutcheta in 1150, who gave his name to the village. To this day, the d'Arcangues family has been living on the same location.

Frafjord, Norway

Having visited Norway as part of my honeymoon, it’s not concrete that it’s one of my favourite destinations to visit. The Fjords are absolutely breathtaking; there’s a magic about the air and the atmosphere that’s truly electric.

These images of Henriette & George’s wedding shot by Simon Buck give you a flavour of place so wonderfully.

Theros Wave Bar, Santorini

If you’re looking for something a little warmer, let’s try Santorini. This hidden jewel of the southern beaches has a secluded location, so it’s great for partying into the early hours!

Tenuta Casteani, Tuscany

Guys, I’ve saved the best for last because when I stumbled upon this place, I honestly shouted. It’s so stunning - Set amongst the hills of the Italian countryside, with views to die for (and that’s before we even mention the wine!)
