9 Unusual Places to Wed

At some point, weddings will be back. Friends and family will once more be there to celebrate this big step in your life as a couple.

When it comes to designing their beautiful cubic zirconia jewelry, they’re always creative, so enjoy these unusual places to get married.

IN FRONT OF A WATERFALL

Sure, you and your guests may have to do a short hike to get there – but if you and your sweetie love the outdoors, this could be perfect. And think about the photo ops!

AT A MONUMENT

Whether it’s a national monument or one in your town, these tend to combine elegance, history, and classic design. Check with local authorities on their policies.

ON A CITY ROOFTOP

Rooftops offer plenty of space for outdoor dining and dancing. The added bonus comes in the spectacular views you and your guests will enjoy.

SPORTS STADIUM

During the off-season (or when the team is on the road), stadiums are often available for a wedding ceremony. This is the perfect venue if you both share a love of the same team!

COLLEGE CAMPUS

Your alma mater could be a great choice for a couple of reasons. One, if the campus has a chapel, your ceremony is handled. Then, you can tap the college’s event staff to help set your reception at a different part of the campus.

THE ZOO

For many cities, their zoo is a prime attraction. You and your guests can be surrounded by nature – not to mention, cute animals. Who wouldn’t want to have a giraffe in the background of some of your wedding photos?!

A LIBRARY

Book lovers can share their passion by tying the knot in a historic library. The architecture is typically gorgeous, and you’ll be surrounded by thousands of volumes dedicated to the subject of love.

A PLANETARIUM

Your love is written in the stars – so why not let them be the backdrop? Many science museums include a planetarium. One unexpected upside is that you won’t need to add much décor; the glorious ambiance of the Universe is enough.

A FARM

For the more rustic couple, a local farm or orchard could be an ideal setting for your wedding. Many will rent a site, where you and your guests can be in the presence of nature. One twist on this idea is a farm where exotic livestock is raised, such as alpacas. We’ve even seen a few couples have an alpaca “escort” them back down the aisle!

These ideas are just a little inspiration for stepping away from the “usual” wedding places and putting your own unique stamp on the ceremony. Maybe you’ll come up with another great pick for your special day! And remember, Birkat Elyon can add more flair with their selection of high-quality CZ jewelry, both for you and the members of your wedding party.
