Hotel de Glace

Not every couple is based on tradition. Instead, many couples are a little less typical, and these couples might want to celebrate their wedding in an equally less typical fashion. It’s an increasing trend to abandon the model wedding and opt for a wedding that’s a little more avant-garde. Many desire to have their weddings in a place that holds special significance to them. Then there are those that just want their wedding to be as unique and memorable as possible. If you feel that you and your loved one models either of these couples, global destinations exists that can really make your wedding unforgettable. Your first step is acquiring expedited American passport services online.

Of course, depending on your own relationship, you may have a very personal location in mind, but if you are in need of a few crazy ideas, the following are some to get your creative juices flowing.

In Quebec, Canada, lies the Hotel de Glace. This hotel features a chapel which, like the hotel in its entirety, is made one hundred percent out of ice. This hotel is reconstructed each year with the season. The Absolut Icebar, located in England, is another place to have a white wedding. This location is also made completely out of ice, the likes of which is collected from a river in Sweden known for its pure waters.

If you and your loved one are thinking of a not-so-white wedding, consider having your ceremony in a darker location. For example, a wedding in a Medieval castle would be a good location. While the images of princes and princesses are generally evoked when thinking of castles, hauntings and Count Dracula are some other associations. And there are definitely castles with a darker history than others. For example, the Arundel Castle in England, has the rosary beads Mary, Queen of Scots wore during her beheading.

Companies like Marriage in the Sky allow you to have your wedding on a platformed raised high above the surrounding environment in my different countries. With your entire wedding party suspended 164 feet in the air, the couple exchanges “I Do’s.” And after the ceremony, some couples even decide to bungee jump from the platform.

What about a wedding under the waves? How incredible would it be to get married in the company of all the marine life? Having a wedding in an underwater hotel or even in your scuba gear under the water can make this dream happen. If, on the other hand, you prefer to not get wet, have your ceremony on a luxurious yacht or a cruise ship.

Like previously mentioned, international weddings require the accompaniment of a passport. However, don’t let this keep you from having your dream wedding, as it is a lot easier than it used to be. Online passport shopping is a snap, and they offer all sorts of services, like adding pages to your USA passport.

If the thought of run of the mill, vanilla wedding brings tears to your eyes, you don’t need to resort to just settling for a location. Find the perfect place, as there is an entire planet of them after all, and put your wild ideas into motion. All sorts of places – fast food restaurants, zoos, hot air balloons, theme parks – are all canvases to paint the perfect wedding celebration, but if you’re thinking of going international for your wedding or honeymoon, don’t forget your passports. Online shopping is easy, with services like adding pages to your U.S. passport and expedited passport services.
