11 Beautiful Airbnbs that Can Double as Intimate Wedding Venues

It's wedding season! Have an intimate celebration in style.
by Cristina Morales | June 05, 2020

By now you’re probably sick of the phrase “new normal”, not only because it’s everywhere you look, but also because it feels like anything but normal. For instance, “normal” now means not being able to have big celebrations for significant events like weddings. But just because you can’t have a big bash doesn’t mean that you can’t spend your special day somewhere beautiful. Gather your closest friends and family in one of these beautiful Airbnbs and you could still have the wedding of your dreams.

(Note: ALWAYS notify the host if you plan on holding an event on their property.)
