A Beach Wedding in Croatia
Maybe you are not into cities and just want to have a relaxed beach wedding in Croatia. In that case, you have a lot of options to choose from, as Croatia has many beautiful beaches along its coast. However, this also means that you have to make a decision and pick one that suits you best. This is where your wedding planner can help you and narrow down the possible places. If you have more than a few guests, you will want a beach with good transportation connections (either by land or by sea) and a nice nearby restaurant. Luckily many Croatian beaches have amazing small restaurants (they call these ‘konoba’) where you can have a delicious local meal. These kind of places are common on Croatian islands.
An Island Wedding in Croatia
With over 1000 islands, Croatia offers a fantastic setting for a wedding. Choosing to have a wedding on one of these islands allows couples to enjoy a beautiful outdoor ceremony surrounded by the sea. One of the main reasons why couples opt for an island wedding in Croatia is the peaceful atmosphere and laid-back vibe that permeates the Croatian islands. Popular choices for island weddings in Croatia include Hvar, Korčula, Brač, Lokrum, Šolta, Vis in the southern part of Croatia, as well as Brijuni, Saint Andrija – a Red Island, and Krk.
