I am joined today by the lovely Roxana who has picked her top 5 wedding locations. If you chose to get married abroad, where would you pick?
Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to witness the wonderful places on different corners of the Earth where you can hold your magical wedding venue. Yes, it’s the month of love, Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and it’s the perfect time to plan a lavish, dreamy wedding. Even now you could find amazing deals for some of the best tropical destinations for your ideal summer-beach ceremony or you could plan ahead for a warm, romantic autumn reception. Take a look at our top choices and try to picture saying “I do” in any of these beautiful sites.
1. Dubrovnik, Croatia
Starting off with a UNESCO
protected gem, Dubrovnik would be our first recommendation for a movie-like
venue. With its Old City center fantastically preserved it’s no wonder that this
Croatian town is the top vacation destination for tourists around the globe. Do
you like the hit series Game of Thrones?
Well, the producers certainly liked this harbor town of the region called
Dalmatia where they filmed most of the series due to the amazing landscape. If
you are into a medieval themed wedding, take the Game of Thrones tour through the town and you might get a
clear idea on what your venue should look like.

2. Sydney, Australia
Moving on down under, take a look
at this Aussie treasure as a viable wedding location. With its majestic nature,
rich cultural heritage and abundance of entertaining attractions, Sydney is the
go to summer destination for large families as well as for newlywed couples.
One of the best perks here are surely the wonderful beaches which make the best
outdoor wedding venues in Sydney. Picture a long aisle running down
to the very tide of the sea and taking your soul mate by the hand. Seems
idyllic, doesn’t it?

3. Drakensberg, South Africa
If, for some odd reason, you
dislike the idea of being wed on a hot, steamy day at a beach where you’ll
probably get sunburnt and have sand irritate your feet, then head for the mountains! The Great Escarpment
is the nest to this majestic wonder. Its name means “Dragon Mountains” in Afrikaans
and it will surely take your breath away with its otherworldly landscape.
Situated amidst the rough mountains, Drakensberg has fantastic green
countryside oases, vineyards to die for and lots of interesting activities and
sites to check out. This secluded site is for true adventurers at heart.

4. County Clare, Ireland
Returning back to the seaside, we
head to northern Europe and land on a fairytale-like sight in the province of
Munster, Ireland. Ladies, if you ever dreamed of a princess-worthy wedding with
a big castle in the midst of a vast, green field of grass, with horses
galloping and bagpipes playing in the background – then Clare is the
ideal spot for you. Provide your guests with the experience of a
lifetime by taking them to archery lessons or an old-fashioned game of croquet
on the lawn or start the party by tasting some of the best brewed beers in the
world.

5. Boracay, Philippines
Last, but most definitely not
least, we head to the Philippines to discover the most prized and even award
winning island of Boracay. It was dubbed the best island in the world by the
international travel magazine Travel +
Leisure in 2012 and to this day fascinates people from all over the globe.
The perfect beach wedding reception takes a whole new dimension once you gaze
upon the unrealistically beautiful white sandy beaches and turquoise tranquil
sea. This may be a pricey trip, but every cent will pay off once you and your guests
give in to the healing wonders of the natural beauty located just a bit to the
south of Manila.
