Our team handles all the preparation, organizational details, and bureaucratic matters regarding document processing.

Why couples choose a wedding in a Georgian castle

The castles of Georgia are architectural masterpieces where the spirit of the Middle Ages still lingers. Ancient fortresses are filled with romance—here, a bride feels like a beautiful princess beside her brave and devoted knight. Castle locations and wine chateaus are surrounded by breathtaking landscapes, providing incredible backdrops of mountains, valleys, lakes, and vineyards for your photos. For international couples, a wedding in a Georgian fortress is a foolproof choice thanks to the visa-free entry and minimal document requirements, making the marriage registration process fast and comfortable.

Every couple has their own vision for their big day. We offer several ways to bring that vision to life:

• Grand ceremony + banquet: we invite a state registrar to your chosen location. Your marriage is officially registered at a specially decorated site (under a floral arch). Following the beautiful ceremony, a banquet is held outdoors on a terrace or in a restaurant hall within the castle grounds.
• Elopement (wedding for two): if you prefer an intimate day just for the two of you, we will make it truly special. A private ceremony and photoshoot in a fortress or chateau will be solemn and magically beautiful, concluded by a romantic candlelit dinner.
• Symbolic ceremony + official registration at the public service hall: for couples seeking an informal celebration, we offer a combined option. You can officially register your marriage at the Public Service Hall on any weekday to receive your legal certificate. We then organize a symbolic ceremony in the most beautiful Georgian castle or chateau. Without the formalities, your script can be original—themed after a romantic movie or a fantasy story—complemented by an exquisite banquet featuring traditional Caucasian cuisine and local wines.

Under Georgian law, foreign couples of any citizenship or religion can officially marry without difficulty. All you need are valid passports. In certain cases, additional documents (such as divorce decrees or birth certificates of shared children) may be required. During your first consultation, our specialist will explain exactly which papers your couple needs and how to prepare them (translations/apostilles). Official registration with a marriage certificate is conducted at the Public Service Hall with two witnesses (whom we can provide if needed). Alternatively, we can arrange an on-site registration where the state registrar comes directly to the castle for the ceremony.
