At Out Of Office, providing personalized luxury for lesbian and gay destination weddings is at the heart of what we do best. With same-sex marriage now legalized in a growing number of countries around the globe, we are regularly asked where the best place is to hold a gay wedding abroad.
Here at Out Of Office, we truly understand the world you live in, and the world you want to explore. Our attention to detail, exceptional service and deep understanding of both luxury travel and LGBTQ+ travel make us a fantastic choice for those looking for a travel experience where exclusivity meets inclusivity.
The truth is, there are so many incredible destinations to have your LGBTQ+ destination wedding, and we can help you find that perfect location.
As an exclusive and inclusive luxury travel company, we have arranged ceremonies for many gay couples and LGBTQ+ families in spectacular settings, from adventure-packed South Africa to romantic Santorini. Whether you would like us to arrange everything for your big day or just need a little assistance, we can help you host the gay destination wedding you've always dreamed of. From finding your ideal venue to coordinating your formal ceremony and organizing wedding photographs, let us minimize the stress so you can fully enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
A gay destination wedding is perfect if you're seeking a more intimate and personal celebration. However, with laws regarding same-sex marriage evolving worldwide, it's essential to know where your marriage will be legally recognized and where it might only be symbolic. As inclusive luxury travel experts, we can guide you through the legal aspects of gay weddings abroad, civil unions, and symbolic ceremonies, offering the best gay wedding packages tailored to your destination—whether that’s a beach ceremony in Mexico’s Riviera Maya or a traditional Polynesian wedding in Bora Bora. Many couples also opt to combine their wedding with a romantic gay honeymoon to make the most of their time away.
To discuss your dream wedding, contact a member of our expert team today.

Planning a wedding abroad can be more stressful than planning one at home. Depending on how far you intend to travel, you may not have seen the venue in person before arriving—and there can be a gap between the image you had in mind and the reality on the ground.
It’s important to be clear about what you want from your wedding. Do you want your marriage to be legally recognized back home, or would you prefer to get legally married in the US before traveling and then have a symbolic beach ceremony abroad?
There are a lot of questions to consider, and when planning a gay wedding, it’s important to be aware of the legal requirements involved. We’ve planned many same-sex weddings in destinations around the world and are always expanding our portfolio. Submit an inquiry, and one of our expert team members will reach out to schedule an initial consultation and get things rolling.
Gay minimoons are a great option if, for any reason, you’re unable to travel to your full honeymoon destination right away. It might not be the right season in the country you’re planning to visit, or maybe you can’t take much time off work. A minimoon offers the perfect solution—a chance to unwind with your new spouse immediately after the wedding.
Whether it’s a weekend escape to a Lapland igloo hotel or a city break in Rome, the possibilities are endless—and you can make it as luxurious as you want. The best part? Once your minimoon ends, you still have your full honeymoon to look forward to.
Planning a wedding can be time-consuming and stressful, so why not enjoy a relaxing weekend away as a couple before the big day? It’s a great reason to take that short break you’ve always talked about—and let’s be honest, it’s the perfect excuse to book another trip.
In many countries where same-sex marriage isn’t legal, you can still have a beautiful symbolic gay wedding. This typically means having a legal ceremony at home before traveling, followed by a symbolic ceremony abroad in your chosen destination. The beauty of symbolic weddings is the flexibility—they open up a wide range of destinations where you’ll still receive a warm welcome, even without full legal recognition.
If you’re looking for a truly unique wedding experience, Japan offers the chance to celebrate your love in a place filled with history and tradition. While same-sex marriage isn’t legally recognized, you can still enjoy a symbolic ceremony dressed in traditional kimono attire and exchange vows in an atmospheric Japanese temple. Couples can expect full styling and wedding fittings, followed by a celebratory meal inspired by authentic Japanese wedding traditions. Japan’s rich culture and stunning scenery offer plenty to explore once the ceremony is over.
With its breathtaking sunsets, traditional Greek cuisine, and scenic hotels, Greece is a stunning location for a symbolic gay wedding. Though same-sex marriage is not yet legal, symbolic ceremonies—often held at your hotel—are a popular choice. We can arrange everything from professional wedding photos to a pre-wedding makeover and a romantic wedding meal. After the celebration, take time to explore the Greek islands. Mykonos is well-known for its gay-friendly energy and beaches, while Santorini is beloved for its boutique stays and postcard-worthy views. We recommend visiting multiple islands to experience their unique charm.
While same-sex marriage hasn’t been legalized in Aruba, it remains an inviting destination for a symbolic beach wedding. Imagine exchanging vows at sunset on a serene Caribbean beach, surrounded by warm sea breezes and turquoise water. Spend your days relaxing at a luxury resort, snorkeling in clear waters, and savoring Caribbean cuisine. In the evening, enjoy a stroll along Aruba’s white-sand shores. For a little adventure, head to Arikok National Wildlife Park and dive into its natural pools.
Italy, one of the world’s most romantic destinations, allows civil partnerships but not full same-sex marriage. It’s still a top choice for symbolic gay weddings, with iconic backdrops in cities like Venice, Florence, and Rome. Say your vows along the quiet canals of Venice, ride a gondola through its cobblestone streets, and toast with a classic Italian aperitivo. In Florence, you’ll be surrounded by Renaissance architecture, perfect for a laid-back and stylish celebration. End your journey in Rome—the Eternal City—home to famous landmarks like the Colosseum and the Trevi Fountain. Savor gelato, explore ancient ruins, and celebrate your love in true Italian style.
