Top 5 thoughts and tips on how to plan a sustainable destination wedding
You might think destination weddings are the least green option when it comes to planning a wedding as it involves jumping on a flight, and as we know travelling by plane releases a lot of pollution into the atmosphere. Can we still say having a destination wedding will reduce your wedding’s carbon footprint..? YES! Read on! This month we share a few tips and insights on how to make a dream destination wedding day as sustainable as possible. #1 Castello di Montignano, Italy
Destination Wedding Venue of the Year 2023 Award winner, weddings online Awards
2023 is the year of
saying I do’s in the great outdoors. The covid years have taught us to appreciate nature and revisit everything we can actually experience outdoors.
Destination Wedding Venue of the Year 2023 Castello di Montignano is the perfect outdoor place for a Spring Bride! Your celebration can take place in the Olive Tree Park of this lovely Italian castle with a spectacular view of the Colli Martani. (Or in the ancient hamlet surrounded by the scenic medieval walls!) Exclusive use of this traditional Italian castle, gourmet kitchen, and the best Umbrian and national wine cellars sign the party toasts!
#2 Address Beach Resort, Dubai Top destination for guaranteed warm weather Have your big day at one of the most exceptional venues in Dubai overlooking the world’s largest man-made marina.
If there's one thing that Dubai just loves, it's a superlative. However, you'll need a head for heights for a dip in the world's tallest infinity pool. Perched on the 77th floor of the uber-swish Address Beach Resort, bold paddlers are rewarded with magnificent views over the Ain Dubai, the world's tallest observation wheel (naturally) and the Arabian Gulf. There's also a luxe spa – the most elevated in Dubai – on the 75th floor. If you don't fancy getting your toes wet, try ZETA Seventy Seven, an Asian fusion restaurant next to the pool which has an open-air terrace and private cabanas, all with those views. Rooms are smart in every way, from floor-to-ceiling windows, neutral tones to the iPad controlled everything (apart from the views).
#3 Bocelli Alpemare Beach Club, Forte dei Marmi
Most Exclusive Destination 23/24
Alpemare is an exclusive Beach Club in the marvellous setting of Forte dei Marmi. Standing out for its privacy and elegance, strongly desired by Maestro Andrea Bocelli is a paradise with golden sand.
The best place to have a fresh drink and see one of the legendary sunsets of Tuscany! The ambience is terrific: a mix of beautiful cabanas, beach walkways to the water, and art installations. Andrea Bocelli and his family are the owners of the Alpemare, which also serves award-winning cuisine with sea views. The seafood is spectacular and with each course you can taste wines from the Bocelli vineyards.
Consider the Beach Club as your wedding destination and you will be treated like a movie star at this exclusive venue.
