15 Unique Wedding Venues Around The World & Tips To Start Planning

So honored to have Julie from the Wedding Paper Divas with us today! She has compiled a list of 15 of the most Unique Wedding Venues Around The World! Here she is…

Everyone wants their wedding day to be extra special. Unfortunately, destination weddings seem out of reach due to the planning and high costs. Here at Wedding Paper Divas, we have searched around the world for the most truly inspiring, yet affordable wedding venues.

So before you toss destination weddings out the window, consider unique venues outside of the typical travel destinations. Napa Valley rates can run you into the tens of thousands, so why not pocket that cash and buy yourself and your soon-to-be a ticket to Sweden?

Instead of a hometown affair, reimagine Sex in the City with a celebration at the New York Public Library. Need to appeal to the fiance too? The iconic building also strikes memories of Ghostbusters and two Spider Man movies!

Those are only a few destinations we researched, see more inspiration of where to spend your special day:

Ready for your destination wedding, but unsure of where to get started? While planning from afar may seem overwhelming, here are some tips during the process:

1. Pick a destination with a variety of venue options to ensure your date will be available.
2. If your destination is far away, send your save the dates earlier than usual so guests can start making the appropriate travel plans.
3. Too far away for a venue tour? If friends or family are closer, ask if they could investigate on your behalf.
4. Get inspiration for decor, food & drink, and even entertainment based on your destination.
5. Don’t forget the marriage certificate! Research the requirements of your destination so you’re truly leaving as “husband and wife.”
6. Choose local vendors whenever possible to keep an eye on costs.
7. If flying internationally, make sure your passports are updated.
8. Nail down shipping costs and logistics for any items you plan to bring separately (wedding gown, rings, stationery, etc.) – don’t forget to insure the packages!

Whether you want to explore the vineyards and beautiful sunsets in Napa Valley, feel like a queen at the Chateau de Vaux le Victome castle in France, get lost in the surroundings of nature in a Treehouse Point ceremony, or become part of the Seven Wonders of the World at the Great Pyramids, the choices are endless.

Happy planning!
