4. Kauai, Hawaii
Raise your hand if Hawai’i is the first place you thought of when hearing the words ‘destination wedding!’ I know I did! It’s easy to fall in love with the thought of sharing vows and making memories with your partner, all while being surrounded by incredible natural beauty. Kauai, one of the islands of Hawaii is nicknamed the Garden Isle thanks to the lush vegetation and rainforest habitat covering it.
Self-described as a place where ‘worries vanish’ this island would make the perfect backdrop to a small and relaxed ceremony, or better yet — an elopement!

5. Hua Hin, Thailand
Haven’t heard of Hua Hin? While most may think of Bangkok as the best place to visit in Thailand, those who seek a mixture of culture and relaxation might prefer to opt for the sandy beaches and seaside community of Hua Hin.
If you’re looking to wed in Thailand, doing so along the stunning coastline of Hua Hin would make for a memorable ceremony and incredible activities for all who attend, such as local night markets, Buddhist pilgrimage sites, and the elephant refuge.

6. Capri, Italy
We started the list in Italy and had to end there as well because let’s face it — Italy is the land of love! Capri, another upscale Italian destination for travelers, is an island situated within the Bay of Naples. For couples looking for a more adventure-filled European wedding — this may be the place for you.
The dramatic cliffs and rugged coastline of Capri make for a stunning outdoor wedding venue, and the photos would be absolutely unmatched. Additionally, for those staying after the wedding, the area offers world-famous local sites such as the Blue Grotto, where visitors can boat through the caves of water glowing electric blue!
