Destination Weddings in Basel

Basel is situated on the river Rhine exactly where Switzerland, Germany and France touch noses. The city is known as an open, cultural, educational and economic metropolis and yet managed to maintain its flair of a small town with its intimacy and charm.

A rich history and natural surroundings define the city where nearby hills, forests, peaceful valleys and the peaks of the Jura mountains invite you to make lovely excursions.

Basel’s historic center is just lovely to wander around and enjoy: the many little streets, the fountains, the shops and one of the main highlights, the impressive Munster Cathedral, is definitely worth a visit! And of course Basel’s pride, the high-class museums, have impressed many couples: the stunning Beyeler collection, the museum of Fine Arts and the Museum of Antiques are just a few examples of the above-average cultural range of the city.

Around the city there are many possibilities to just chill out and relax: the green parks, the river banks, or the beautiful Botanical Gardens (a superb location to make the most romantic wedding pictures!).

The finishing touch to Basel’s wide and varied art, culture and leisure program is its impressive diversity of restaurants with high level gastronomy. Due to Basel’s extraordinary international atmosphere (with its many multinationals) you will find any type of culinary specialty you can think of for your wedding reception!
