If you’re looking for a truly unique and magical wedding venue, the United States has no shortage of options. From breath-taking nature preserves to stunning greenhouses and even delicious restaurants, there’s something for every couple looking to celebrate their nuptials in a one-of-a-kind setting.
One standout option is Oheka Castle on Long Island. This European-inspired estate was built in 1919 and was once the site of legendary Gatsby-style soirĂ©es. Today, it’s the perfect venue for couples with opulent fairy-tale fantasies, as they can exchange their vows and take portraits in the manicured gardens before hosting their reception in the Grand Ballroom (capacity: 200) or Terrace Room (capacity: 350).
Another unique venue is Everly at Railroad, a vintage furniture store located in Tuckahoe, New Jersey. Couples can browse the store’s eclectically cool assortment of second-hand finds and even use their chairs and pews as ceremony seating. The store can accommodate up to 250 guests for dinner, and the nearby seaside destinations of Cape May and Lokal Cape May offer great options for the wedding night.
For a truly urban twist, the Bok Building in Philadelphia offers a fantastic tale of urban reuse. This former vocational high school in Philadelphia is now home to several creative small businesses and offers a rooftop bar and restaurant. Couples can exchange vows on the roof or on stage in the school’s original auditorium and then dine and dance the night away in the “Boy’s Gym” (capacity: 300).
Nature lovers will appreciate the U.S. National Arboretum in Washington, D.C. This 446-acre center for botanical research and display began hosting weddings in 2018 and offers the National Grove of State Trees and National Capitol Columns as stunning ceremony and portrait backdrops.
For a truly unique Las Vegas experience, the Neon Museum offers a one-of-a-kind setting surrounded by vintage casino and hotel signs from the Strip. The main events area can host a seated dinner for 200 guests and smaller events of 70 or less can reserve the North Gallery. The venue also offers a 60-minute “Sweetheart Package” for couples looking to embrace the quickie marriage.
Other unique venues across the country include Thorncrown Chapel in Arkansas, which offers a stunning natural setting with a glass and wood structure, and The Green Building in Brooklyn, which is a restored industrial building with a green roof and terrace.
Overall, there are countless unique and magical wedding venues in the United States, each offering their own charm and character.
