Traveling to beautiful far off places might be out of the question right now, but European inspired wedding venues may be closer than you think. 

I’ve rounded up a handful of stunning castles, jaw dropping chateaus and chic mansions for you to explore while beginning your venue search! These European inspired wedding venues hold a certain elevated flair for you and your guests on your wedding day. They have the power to transport you to the rolling hills of Tuscany or a champagne toast in Champagne! And the best part is, you can save your airline miles for your Honeymoon! 

I’m thrilled to share 6 different European styled wedding venues in today’s post all across the New England region and I am seriously swooning over an opportunity to photograph at one of these gorgeous locations. However, since that hasn’t happened yet, I’ve credited the appropriate photographer under each photograph. Please note that I do not own any of these photos and they should be used as inspiration for wedding venue research only. 

Happy viewing!!
