WELCOME!
After 15+ years photographing destination weddings across Prague, I’ve learned one thing: this city doesn’t just host weddings—it transforms them. From intimate Baroque gems to grand palaces with breathtaking views, these venues create moody, cinematic photos that feel like forever. Here are my top 5 picks for couples seeking drama, romance, and unforgettable stories.
Prague’s Best Wedding Venues: A Pro Photographer’s Perspective on Dramatic Destination Spots
Every time I raise my camera in Prague, the city whispers secrets of centuries past. As a photographer specializing in cinematic love stories, I’ve captured vows in hidden gardens, mirrored chapels, and hilltop palaces. If you’re planning a destination wedding here, these five venues stand out for their drama, intimacy, and sheer photographic magic. If you are looking for recomendations on which wedding planners to speak with, I would be happy to introduce you to my faves.
1. Klementinum Mirror Chapel — Prague’s Most Dramatic Venue
The one that steals my breath every time: walls of mirrors multiplying candlelight into infinity, creating gothic, moody photos unlike anywhere else. Perfect for intimate ceremonies with epic depth.
2. Vrtba Garden — Hidden Baroque Paradise
Tucked away in Malá Strana, this terraced gem feels like a secret Italian garden with sweeping city views. Sun-dappled terraces and sculpted hedges make every portrait feel romantic and ethereal—ideal for garden ceremonies.
3. St. Nicholas Church (Old Town)
The space hums with the energy of Prague’s bustling square just outside, yet inside it’s profoundly intimate and theatrical—ideal for couples who dream of a ceremony steeped in historic grandeur. Of course, it’s strictly for ceremonies; the church preserves its sacred calm and doesn’t host receptions.
4. Troja Château
If you are looking for an epic location, the Troja Château’s grand staircase, candlelit ballroom, and dancing late into the night amid vineyards and panaramic views of Prague’s twinkling lights is breathtaking to behold.
5. Ledebour Garden
Tucked on the steep southern slope below Prague Castle, the city seems to fall away and reveal one of its most enchanting secrets—a perfectly manicured Baroque terrace garden that feels like stepping into an 18th-century painting.
