It's your special day and you deserve the best. Beautiful Vancouver is the ideal place for your destination wedding.

Choose a luxuriant rainforest park or a coastal beach for your event.

The most popular and favorite outdoor places to get married are Stanley Park surrounded on three sides by water or the highest point in the center of the city, the hill top Queen Elizabeth Park.

Some of the picnic sites need to reserved ahead of time and you can do that through the Vancouver Parks Board but in general to host your nuptials in a park surrounded by blossoms or on an ideal ocean-side beach you are free to do so as long as you follow a few simple rules.

• first come, first served
• 50 people or less
• no chairs, tents, awnings or tables
• no alcohol
• no rice or confetti

A marriage license in Vancouver cost $100 and it is non-refundable. Only one of you needs to apply for a marriage license but you will need to know the full name, date of birth and place of birth of the other person. You both need to be 19 or older or you'll need parental consent. And, the ceremony must be witnessed by at least two other people as well as the marriage commissioner or religious representative. Our laws also allow same sex marriages.

After the ceremony take your wedding photos surrounded by stunning vistas and natural beauty. In this lush, green city you won't need to spend a lot of money on flowers maybe only a bouquet for the bride and a boutonnière for the groom.

If instead you prefer to be married in a hotel, restaurant or other at some other special venue or attraction there are plenty of alternatives and people to help you including wedding planners, decorators, florist, caterers and photographers.
