You’ve gone through the grueling dating process a thousand times, and finally it has panned out. He’s asked you, you’ve said yes, and are getting married! Now the question is it will happen.

Have you ever thought of a location wedding? Exotic, romantic, inexpensive, and simple – you wouldn’t have to even leave for your honeymoon after the wedding!

This list of some of the most beautiful and exotic wedding destinations from around the world to give you a few ideas of your destination wedding options:

1. St. Kitts, Bahamas

The glorious Caribbean sun shines down on this tropical island where one company offers a wedding ceremony that whispers of past gone by, a time of railways, rolling fields of sugarcane that dance with the sea’s gentle winds, a time of graceful plantations, and the tranquil sounds of waves kissing the shore.

After the wedding in one of these scenic locations, the reception would take place on board a train, and afterwards the train leaves the happy couple to themselves as they spend a romantic night in their private honeymoon quarters aboard the last car of the train.

2. Waterford Castle Ireland

Located on a very private Irish island, the 16th century stone castle’s only neighbor is a golf course – a perfect place to have an intimate wedding ceremony. After all, what girl has never dreamed of getting married in a castle?

Clothed with red ivy, skirted with verdant foliage, and adorned with traditional interior decor, it is quite a majestic site for a dream ceremony.

3. The Ice Hotel, Canada

Walking through the entrance into the grand hall of this dramatic hotel, the light reflects against the ice as if they were facets of a diamond. Works of art are displayed behind ice, and ice sculptures are scattered throughout the 34 guest rooms.

The wedding ceremony itself takes place in a chapel complete with an ice altar and pews that can seat up to 100 guests, and etched ice that looks like stained glass as the light shines through throwing colors across the room.

4. Hanalei Bay, Hawaii

As one of the most beautiful locations for a destination wedding, Hawaii has a lot of diverse locations to offer. Imagine standing under a white fabric clad arch back-dropped by the ocean, amid a lovely garden in a valley surrounded by majestic mountains, or simply standing side-by-side next to the sea while the sun sets and you both say “I do”.

5. Paphos, Cyprus

According to legend, this island is dedicated to the goddess of love, Aphrodite. The various settings, including a Byzantine chapel surrounded by lavender-fringed paths overlooked by bougainvilleas, or the front patios of a church where Mediterranean waves crash in the distance, make it a perfect scene for a wedding.

Take advantage of this opportunity to take all worry and stress out of the infamous wedding planning process while you simultaneously have the dream wedding you probably thought you could never afford!! Destination weddings can be planned for both small intimate weddings or large fully catered weddings.
