With countless wonderful wedding locations across it’s coastline, interior and a thousand islands, Croatia became an established wedding destination and an attractive choice for wedding couples. What makes Croatia such a popular choice for a destination wedding?
1) THE LOCATION AND CLIMATE
Croatia is well known for its natural beauty with 1777 km of one of the most beautiful coastlines, 1246 islands, breathtaking national and nature parks, enchanting rivers and lakes, as well as charming highlands. Countless spectacular wedding venues spread throughout these locations and it’s easy to see why couples mesmerised by its beauty choose to get married in Croatia.
The Adriatic coast has a Mediterranean climate with cool winters and hot, dry summers, offering over 2300 hours of sunshine yearly. This gives couples the possibility of planning their special day on the Croatian coast throughout the whole year.
2) THE VALUE FOR MONEY
Similar to getting married at home, your budget will depend on many variables; the region in which you plan your wedding, the time of year, the number of guests as well as the number of perks you want included, just to name a few.
Still, with numerous luxury reception venues, delicious traditional cuisine and amazing wine as standard in all it’s regions, Croatia offers exceptional value and guarantees your special day will be one to be remembered.
On top of that, low cost airlines have many lines connecting Croatia the UK, Ireland and Europe, assuring that your special day is attended by all the people you love.
3) THE CROATIAN EXPERIENCE
It is important to know that you, as well as your guests, feel welcome when getting married. Croatia is one of the safest and cleanest tourist destinations on the globe, and Croats are some of the most friendly and welcoming hosts you will have the chance to come across. You can be sure that your whole stay will be care-free, allowing you to be fully immersed in the beauty of your chosen destination. One more important thing to know is that most Croatians are fluent in English, making communication effortless.
