Not Your Standard Wedding Reportage. Tips and Inspiration for that Special Wedding Feeling in a Monumental Windmill in Sittard
Looking for a slightly different wedding venue? Dare to be different and discover the magic of monumental windmills in South Limburg. In this blog post, I share tips and inspiring ideas for your big day.
Romantic Wedding Ceremony in an Old Granary Or rather, in 'a beautifully restored granary' with the rustic charm of yesteryear. Upon entering, your gaze immediately rises to the roof and the imposing oak beams. This gives the space a sense of openness and intimacy at the same time. The high ceilings create a dramatic visual effect, leaving the space with an unforgettable impression. I always get excited when I get to capture wedding stories in this barn.
Historical Mill as the Official Wedding Venue of Sittard This monumental building is also an official wedding venue of the municipality of Sittard-Geleen. My tip? If you, like this couple, desire both a romantic and legal wedding ceremony, choose an official wedding venue and have an official registrar conduct the ceremony. After signing the marriage certificates, you are legally married right away.
Wedding Reportage in the Green by the Geleen Stream The name says it all: watermills need water. In Sittard, it's the Geleen stream that meanders past this wedding venue on the outskirts of the city and once drove colossal millstones. Water has something magical. It's a bit like in love, where not every day is a fairy tale. Your love is as powerful as the water that once set these stones in motion. Trust in that power, and then you can move mountains together, or in this case, millstones.
Centuries-Old Mills for the Slightly Different Wedding This isn't my first wedding reportage at this enchanting wedding venue. [Click here for more inspiration.] What makes this location extra special is the estate with various buildings and a walled garden. This offers a lot of flexibility. You can opt for an intimate ceremony with family and friends in the granary, followed by an outdoor dinner under the romantic rafters. The gardens provide a natural backdrop for group photos or a 'just-the-two-of-us' photoshoot. In the evening, you can make it as 'rock-'n-roll' as you want.
