They say adventure is everywhere—so why can’t that also be true on your wedding day? If you and your partner appreciate a sense of spontaneity and thrills (or if you’re just looking for an epic spot to say “I do”), it could feel extra-special to choose a wedding venue that comes with a sense of adventure and fearlessness.

The extra-good news is that because “adventure” means something different to everyone, there are a variety of unique celebration locales that could meet the criteria. For example, if you love hiking or taking in the fresh air, you could opt for a breathtaking mountain venue. Or, if you’re more of a beach-loving summer type, you could exchange vows just steps away from a dreamy ocean or lake. While those might be more of the obviously adventurous wedding venues, we think you could consider anything that ignites a sense of excitement as a worthy spot. 

That said, it can feel challenging trying to find a uniquely adventurous venue that’s perfect for you and your partner. But fear not: We rounded up some of our favorite wedding venues ideal for venturesome couples. Check out our list below.
