Destination Wedding in Armenia: What You Need to Know – Varosyan Events Guide

Why Marry in Armenia

Dreaming of having your “I do’s” in a breathtaking, exotic, and unique location? Armenia might be the perfect place for your wedding. We at Varosyan Events help couples from around the globe with planning weddings in Armenia, and in this simple guide we will lead you through all that you need to know.

Armenia is a small country with stunning natural scenery and rich cultural heritage. It’s the destination wedding dream — and rightly so. It’s the view that takes your breath away, the centuries-old churches, the friendly locals. If you’re born Armenian or just prefer a warm, intimate spot to say your vows, this country has it all. Over there, the weddings are not only stunning but cheaper than those abroad or other European destinations.

The Ideal Location

In choosing where someone is to be married, Armenia has something for everyone. There are people who would like their weddings conducted within ancient monasteries that are historic and holy. Others would like to be married at contemporary hotel facilities in Yerevan, where they will be treated to luxury and convenience. Others adore serene outdoor settings near lakes and mountains, and still others picture countryside, rural weddings with a cozy, intimate setting. We help you choose the right venue suitable to your style, mood, and budget — and take care of all the rest at Varosyan Events.

Legal Issues for Foreign Couples

In case you are not Armenian, you will be curious to learn whether it is possible to lawfully get married here.
Yes, it is. We have a lot of diaspora couples and foreign couples, and the law is fine as long as you carry the proper documents. You will require passports, birth certificates, and a paper stating that you are not married where you come from. We walk you through each step, do the translations, and make sure everything gets submitted the correct way so that you don’t have to worry about paperwork.

Planning takes how long?

We recommend starting six or eight months before your wedding date, although we have planned great weddings with less time. We do it all: reserve venues, coordinate vendors, design your theme and decor, coordinate your guests’ transportation and logistics, and carry out the day itself. Even if you are getting married outside of the United States, we make it easy and enjoyable.

Including Armenian Traditions

Most also enjoy adding some traditional Armenian aspects to the wedding. Some have a church blessing at a historic location. Others add symbolic ceremonies like lavash and honey to bring prosperity and sweetness into their union. Traditional Armenian music and dance, like the Kochari, can be included. We help you add as much or little of tradition as you wish.

Final Thoughts

At the end of the day, an Armenian destination wedding is, in fact, a wedding. It’s a journey that combines Mother Nature, spiritual roots, and genuine hospitality. With Varosyan Events, we’ll handle all the details so you can just sit back, unwind, and soak it all in and enjoy with loved ones. If you want a wedding that will feel really special and exceptional, we’d be honored to assist in making it so.
