Elopement in Utrecht at Karel V Hotel

Preview | Full Gallery Coming Soon

Your wedding day, whether it’s a destination wedding, an intimate wedding or even an elopement, it should always be focused and centered around you two! Elopements can be a great way to focus on your love and connection without any distractions. More and more couples these days are choosing to just spend the day with each other doing their favorite things. But just because you are having a elopement doesn’t mean you can’t wear THE DRESS of your dreams and celebrate as one normally would on a wedding day.

One of the best places to elope can be in the Netherlands and while your mind might immediately jump to think of Amsterdam as the location to elope, don’t overlook the beautiful city of Utrecht. I dare say that Utrecht is the mini Amsterdam of the Netherlands. It’s a city around gorgeous canals, cathedrals, and old dutch architectural buildings.

You can elope in the city or even have your ceremony down by the canals. The possibilities are endless! You might even consider having your ceremony on a boat as it cruises through the Oudegracht.

But one thing is for sure, Grand Hotel Karel V is THE best place to stay in Utrecht. It was once home to knights, priests and emperors in the 14th century. Trust me when I say it is hidden gem that is actually not so hidden seeing as it is only a 5 minute walk from Utrecht central station. It’s also a foot away from the famous Dom Tower and Pandhof van de Dom. It features a luxury garden, a restaurant and spa.
