These are our top 5 most unique non-traditional wedding venue ideas. When I got married in 2021 and I realised that at the end of the day a wedding only requires you, the love of your life, a celebrant and 2 witnesses, the possibilities became endless. I just had so many ideas of when I could get married. These are the ideas that didn’t quite make it for my wedding day but I thought it would help you plan the perfect wedding day, engagement party or vow renewal.
A sunset wedding on a boat, out at sea with your nearest and dearest
This wedding venue idea would be perfect:
- for an intimate wedding or elopement
- if you love sea views
- want your wedding day to be a party full of dancing and fun
This wedding venue idea is not for you if:
- you want to invite everyone you know
- you’re prone to sea sickness
- you don’t want to worry about the weather
This is still one of my favourite ideas for getting married and I might still plan an epic anniversary party on a boat like this to party with my closest friends and family.
An art gallery wedding with the love of your life
This wedding venue idea would be perfect:
- for an elopement

- you love the movie ‘The Vow’
- you don’t want to worry about the weather
This wedding venue idea is not for you if:
- you don’t want to worry about permits

I never let go of the idea of running hand in hand through an art gallery with the love of my life after I watched the movie ‘The Vow’.
Vegas / City elopement with your nearest and dearest

Never did I think that I ever would want to get married in Vegas. I always thought it was tacky but after realising that all you need is you and your fiancé, I just couldn’t stop thinking about a colourful, retro vibe Vegas style wedding day.
