“The Montenegrin coastline really is the most beautiful encounter between land and sea.”
Montenegro is slowly but surely becoming one of the best Destination Wedding locations in Europe. Once overlooked in favor of more well-known Mediterranean nations, Montenegro is fast gaining a reputation as a great place to get married. It's easy to see why. Comparing to Italy, the wedding cost is much lower than Tuscany or Amalfi Coast. This small Balkan country has it all. Starting with unique, traditional wedding villas, seaside resorts, vineyards and finishing strong with five stars hotels in new city - Tivat.
The wedding season starts in early May and ends in late October. There are several airlines which fly direct from UK airports and most of the hotels and villas will provide transfer for your guests. Destination wedding can become a one-week family celebration. Just like in Tuscany, you might rent your wedding villa and celebrate with several BBQs and pool parties. You may design a dreamy destination wedding, overlooking the mountains, forest and Boka Bay. Include some of the fresh local products: seafood, pomagranate, olives, figs, cheese and wine.
“Montenegro is the new magnet for people seeking picturesque villas on the Mediterranean.”
Montenegro's stunning natural beauty and diverse history make it a fascinating place to explore. This country possesses some of the most incredible natural attributes of any state in Europe, verdant countryside that mixes with divine towns to create something truly breathtaking. You might consider exploring Durmitor National Park, try rafting on Tara River or visit iconic spots in Budva or explore island of Sveti Stefan. Walkthrough the oldest streets of Kotor, dine on some of the most delicious dishes available on this side of the world during your stay. Don't miss the delightful and unique native meals served from morning to evening. Grab a Burek in the day and an authentic seafood dish, at night.
This beautiful country makes an incredible backdrop for your wedding photos. Something completely different and truly magical.
