Top 10 Places to Elope in Europe

Dreaming of an Elopement in Europe? Eloping in Europe offers an unmatched diversity of landscapes—from wild Arctic coastlines and quiet alpine valleys to volcanic islands and deeply rooted mountain cultures. As an elopement photographer and planner in Europe, I help couples craft intentional, unhurried elopements shaped by nature rather than tradition.

This guide explores the top places to elope in Europe, the best seasons, multi-day adventure elopements, and how to choose a location that truly feels like you—whether that means hiking to a sunrise ceremony, exchanging vows by the ocean, or disappearing into the mountains for days at a time.
