As secular wedding ceremonies have become a popular option for couples getting married, and the work of the authorised marriage celebrant has come into the spotlight, so has the desire to find alternatives to a traditional wedding chapel. Let’s take a look at a few of those options.
Beachy Bliss
Beach ceremonies offer a serene and picturesque atmosphere, creating a romantic ambience that’s hard to replicate elsewhere.
Aim for a time when the beach isn’t packed out with half-naked revellers.
Barnyard Beauty
Rustic weddings are a timeless trend. There is something ultra romantic and charming about a barn setting where a couple can choose to have cosy, intimate ceremony surrounded by the warmth of wood and the sweet scent of hay.
We wouldn’t recommend a candle ceremony in this setting for obvious fire hazard reasons.
Garden Gala
Lush greenery, vibrant flowers, and the sweet symphony of birds create an idyllic setting for a couple’s special day.
Be mindful of where the guests walk and stand. Let’s keep those flowers upright!
Nautical Nuptials
There’s something big and magnificent that goes hand in hand with intimate and personal when you choose the grand, open water, whether that’s on a cruise ship or a fishing trawler, to perform a wedding ceremony.
Take a supply of seasick pills for the guest that maybe doesn’t do so well on the open water.
Urban Unity
A cityscape can be quite chic as a wedding backdrop. Rooftop ceremonies or intimate gatherings in a city park bring sophistication and a modern twist to a celebration.
And then you can go shopping!
Hand Holding History

History enthusiasts may love tying the knot in or at an historical landmark. Old churches (kind of cheating the blog here), castles, or even heritage-listed homes can infuse a ceremony with timeless charm. Many towns have historical villages that can be utilised for ceremonies.
Choosing an historical landmark will also mean that the bride is only left to find something borrowed, blue and new.
Vineyard Vows
Whether you’re a wine lover or not, a vineyard reeks of romance. Plenty of movies will tell you that. Enjoy the agrestic charm of barrels and vines while the couple pledges their love surrounded by the ambience of wine country.
And then enjoy the fruits of the land!
A wedding day is a reflection of a couple’s love story. Choosing the right ceremony location sets the stage for a truly personal and memorable celebration.
