Top 5 Airbnb Elopement Venues in Europe (Part 1)

 

Elopements are one of the most adventurous and romantic ways to say, “I DO”. I can’t think of a more intimate way to marry than to confidently step on a plane together and head to an overseas destination. Eloping in a beautiful foreign country of your heart’s desire is the pinnacle of exciting elopement experiences. Like any wedding, the food, landscape, location, venue, style, attire, and accommodation are all very important. This is only amplified when traveling to an overseas destination.
