Looking for the most unique wedding venues in The Netherlands? The luxury escape place to say yes to your love. Need some tips? I got you!
Over the years, I’ve discovered some truly special wedding locations. Places that aren’t your average venues, but little hidden gems—just as unique as your love story. I went looking for settings where not everyone has tied the knot yet. Because honestly, who wants to get married at the same place as everyone else?
Let me take you through a few of my absolute favourites. These are places that stole my heart, and I just know one of them will steal yours too.
You know that feeling when you walk into a space and instantly feel like you belong there? That’s exactly what Blooming Style gives you. It’s a one of a kind wedding location in the south of the Netherlands where creativity and elegance meet in the most beautiful way. Inside, it’s like stepping into a carefully curated dream. Think Pinterest, but personal and with heart. Outside, there’s a stunning garden perfect for saying your vows surrounded by nature. What I love most? Nothing about this place feels standard. Every wedding here is tailored to you, your vibe, and your story.
De Lievelinge isn’t just a venue, it’s a feeling. This is where you go if you’re dreaming of a barefoot wedding in the middle of nature, with trees all around, a lake nearby, campfires glowing, and just the right amount of festival vibes. Here, things don’t have to be perfect, they just have to be you. It’s laid-back, a little wild, and totally unforgettable. Located in the heart of the Betuwe (my own home base!), this place has a magical energy that’s hard to put into words. If you’re the type who wants your wedding to feel like a beautiful adventure… this is your spot.
Restaurant Dengh is one of those places that makes your heart skip a beat. It’s a beautifully restored old farmhouse surrounded by greenery, just outside Utrecht. And the best part? You can hold your ceremony on a little island, connected by a wooden bridge. It honestly feels like something straight out of a fairytale. The whole vibe is calm, romantic, and full of that countryside charm, but with a modern twist. Oh, and the food? Incredible. This is one of those places you’ll be talking about for years after the wedding.
IJver is the kind of place where you just know the party is going to be epic. Set in a converted warehouse on Amsterdam’s NDSM-wharf, this space oozes creativity and character. Picture exposed brick walls, high industrial ceilings, steel beams and a killer view over the water. One of my favorite parts? The semi-covered outdoor space called ‘the Dock’. You can be outside without worrying about the weather (yes please!). Whether you’re planning a cool city ceremony, an elegant dinner or a wild dance party.
IJver brings all the edge, energy and style.
Metaalkathedraal is truly something else. This place is like stepping into another world and you feel it the moment you walk in. Once a church, then a metal factory, and now a space where art, nature, and connection come together. The way the light hits the walls? Pure magic. You can have a candlelit ceremony here, surrounded by artwork, in a venue that feels sacred and soulful. They only host a few weddings each year, so it’s rare and special. It’s not your average venue but if you’re a couple who loves things that are meaningful, original, and just a little bit mystical… you’ll fall in love here.
If you’re dreaming of a countryside wedding that’s both relaxed and effortlessly stylish, Akkerzicht is your spot. Picture wide open fields, a cozy barn, and a beautiful glass orangery all surrounded by nature. Whether you say “I do” under the tall trees near the little chicken shed, beneath the rustic barn roof, or under the impressive oak-framed Marquee with thick ropes, there’s always the perfect ceremony setting, no matter the weather. It’s not a party location (the day ends at 7:30 PM), but they’ll happily suggest great nearby places to keep the celebration going. Akkerzicht feels like a hidden slice of rural magic warm, welcoming, and totally unforgettable.
Want your wedding day to feel like a luxury retreat? The Duke is where elegance meets exclusivity. Set on a breathtaking estate, it’s designed for couples who want an intimate celebration with all the grandeur. You’ll get your own wedding coordinator who takes care of everything, from the invitations to the entertainment, so you can fully relax and enjoy. Many couples even stay the night before in one of the Duke Suites, sharing dinner and wellness time with close family and friends. It’s high-end, but personal. Stylish, but warm. If you’re dreaming big, this is your place.
Tucked away in the green heart of the Tuinen van West, Het Rijk van de Keizer is a whimsical dream. Part fairytale, part secret garden, and entirely magical. You can get married outside, toast in the courtyard, dine in the rustic watch house, and dance into the night. Every couple adds their own chapter to this enchanting place, and no two weddings are the same. Whether you want an intimate gathering or an all-out celebration (complete with champagne towers reaching for the stars), Het Rijk van de Keizer brings your vision to life with a touch of wonder.
A hidden green haven in the middle of the city, De Hortus is one of the most romantic spots to say “I do.” Surrounded by tropical plants and ancient trees, your ceremony can take place in the stunning Palm Greenhouse. It’s a wow moment, for sure. Afterwards, you can dine in the Orangerie between lush plants and candlelight, with the garden terrace just outside. Even if the weather turns, cozy tents, fire pits, and lanterns keep the vibe warm and welcoming. It’s a botanical fairytale, right in the heart of Amsterdam.
If you love nature and dream of a stress-free wedding, Blooming in de Kas is your perfect match. Imagine a greenhouse full of soft light and green all around you. Peaceful, personal, and full of warmth. Their team is all about making your day relaxed and totally yours. They’ll help you plan, style everything, and take care of all the logistics, so you can just enjoy. While they don’t do catering or music themselves, that just means you get to choose exactly what suits you. This place is made for lovers of greenery, good vibes, and real connection.
If you’re dreaming of a place where nature, creativity, and a touch of quirkiness all come together, WestWeelde is definitely worth a look. Tucked away in the green heart of Amsterdam’s Westerpark, this location feels like a cozy hug. Think wooden floors, charming windows that give off chapel vibes, and an inviting bar that practically begs for a glass of bubbly. Everything about this space feels relaxed, welcoming, and real. Whether you’re after an intimate ceremony or a lively party that goes on into the night, it’s all possible here. What I personally love? The way they think along with you and make sure your day is just right, from start to finish.
Last but definitly not least.
Glundr! is that rare find! A place that’s stylish, cozy, and completely surrounded by nature. You can get married in the lush garden, celebrate inside the warm and modern spaces, and even stay overnight with your loved ones. The next morning? A slow breakfast together, maybe a little wellness moment, and definitely a lot of smiles. Everything’s taken care of, and the nearby area is full of dreamy photo spots: think eco-zones, a golf course, the beautiful Groote Peel, and even a castle. Glundr! is where love, nature, and good taste come together.
