Choosing the right venue is one of the toughest decisions that couples make, and Central Dalmatia stands out as the ideal location, offering breathtaking coastal scenery, exceptional weather, and captivating attractions to create an unforgettable wedding experience.
Split: The Heart of Dalmatia
This vibrant city, built by the Roman emperor Diocletian, is one of the most popular and buzzing cities of Croatia. While Split features many beautiful wedding venues, one stands out as the most recognizable and sought-after: the famous Villa Dalmacija. It is widely known as an ideal event venue due to its splendor, privacy, and unique beachfront position- allowing couples to organize both their ceremony and dinner reception at the same location. In recent years it has become increasingly popular, so be sure to secure your special date on time.
Trogir riviera
The city of Trogir, known as the “Little Venice of Croatia,” is one of the most picturesque and enchanting cities on the Adriatic coast. Like many other locations in Croatia, it is also a UNESCO heritage site, known for its rich history, authentic culture, numerous museums, and charming people. In the Trogir area, we recommend the beautiful Brown Beach Hotel, renowned for its unique design and prime location overlooking the bay of Trogir and Kaštela.
Omiš
The small, picturesque town of Omiš, located at the mouth of the Cetina river, is a popular rafting destination. This ancient town features beautiful sandy and pebbly beaches, and is surrounded by a medieval fortress and rocky slopes of the Dinara mountain. The area is also home to many beautiful seaside villas, offering privacy and spectacular views. If you are dreaming of a destination wedding in Central Dalmatia, consider staying at one of the private villas which provide privacy and personalized service.
Island of Hvar
Undoubtedly the most popular island in Croatia, Hvar, enjoys more than 2,700 hours of sun per year- approximately 130 sunny days annually. A few years ago, the city of Hvar celebrated its 155th anniversary of tourism, making it the oldest organized tourism in Europe.
The remarkable Beach Club Hvar, affiliated with Sunčani Hvar, overlooks the azure sea and nearby islands, making it an ideal beachfront venue suitable for both ceremony and dinner celebrations. Additionally, discover the enchanting garden of Hanibal Lucić, the famous poet of Hvar, which serves as a romantic setting for wedding ceremonies.
Island of Brac
One of the most romantic and intimate wedding venues is the Kaštil Gospodnetić castle in Dol. Famous for its local produce, rich history, and spectacular views, this beautiful family-owned castle built in the 16th century, offers you the opportunity to step back in time.
The island of Brač is one of the largest in Dalmatia and closest to the mainland of Split. It offers a little bit of everything for everyone, from adventure and family travel to solo travel and party destinations.
Island of Vis
Often referred to as the “Mamma Mia Island,” thanks to the popular musical filmed there, Vis is the most remote of the Dalmatian islands. It takes approximately two and a half hours by ferry from Split, but the island is worth the journey as its tranquility, serene atmosphere, and golden sunsets captivate all who visit it.
The famous 19th-century historic fortress, Fort George, is by far the most luxurious and unique wedding venue on the island. It offers a beautiful view of the Adriatic and provides the perfect setting to host both your wedding ceremony and dinner party.
We invite you to explore Croatia’s breathtaking venues and explore the beauty of Central Dalmatia – your go-to wedding destination in Europe.
