Editorial guides to regions and wedding formats across Spain, Italy, Greece and Switzerland — with the venues, vendors and categories that actually work there.

A finca is the classic Mallorca wedding: a private sandstone estate with olive trees, a walled courtyard for the ceremony and dinner under strings of light. It is also the most production-heavy format on the island.

Barefoot ceremonies on the sand, a long table above a cove, and a sunset that does the decorating for you — Mallorca's south and east coast are built for coastal weddings.

Palma is the island's only true city wedding: Gothic architecture, courtyard palaces, rooftop terraces over the cathedral and enough hotel rooms that no guest needs a transfer.

The UNESCO-listed Tramuntana range gives Mallorca its most dramatic weddings: terraced olive groves, stone villages and estates that look straight down onto the sea from 300 metres up.

Sardinia is the Mediterranean without the queue: granite coves on the Costa Smeralda, inland stone estates near Alghero and Oristano, and a season that stays warm into October — with prices below the mainland's headline destinations.

Ticino gives you Mediterranean scenery with Swiss reliability: palm-lined lake promenades in Locarno and Ascona, villa gardens above the water, and a civil registry process that foreign couples can actually complete on site.

Zermatt is a car-free village under the Matterhorn, which makes it one of the few mountain destinations where the backdrop is guaranteed and the logistics are handled by the resort: chapels at altitude, hotel ballrooms in the village, and mountain restaurants reached by cable car.
