There’s something truly romantic about a ceremony that makes the most of the natural environment. And an ocean backdrop is a great metaphor for endless love, while the sunlight reflecting from gentle ocean waves and a cool sea breeze all add to the magic and energy of the occasion for smitten couples saying their vows on the beach.
Barefoot weddings on the sand are elegantly informal and beautifully suited to intimate celebrations. Whilst brides who are set are saying 'I do' in a pair of crystal encrusted Jimmy Choo's need not have their beach dreams dashed as many venues can provide 'decking' to create a temporary and more stiletto-friendly aisle.

Destination weddings are often (and mistakenly) assumed to be limited to beaches and Tuscan vineyards. These are both super-popular for obvious reasons but getting married in abroad in a city location is equally HUGE. Think Venice, Paris, London, Marrakech, Barcelona, New York, Cape Town, Prague, Vienna... The list goes on.. And on... And on...
City weddings are a great choice for sophisticated couples who like bright lights and luxury. Or couples who have a strong sense of style and want to get married in a setting that reflects their individual romantic vibe. There are also lots of couples who have a special city in the world that was the place they got engaged, or they travelled to for their first romantic break, or was even the place they first met. The takeaway here is city wedding a massively popular for are so many reasons and there are 1000's of cities to choose from.
Additionally, if your wedding venue needs to be easily accessible for your guests who are often travelling from multiple destinations and have varying degrees of travel experience, having a convenient and well-connected location is also a big draw of a city-based ceremony. And one that becomes increasingly important once the invitations have been sent out. It’s always nice to know that you can invite all the guests you want to which isn't always practical when getting married somewhere off the beaten track.
