Situated in the most beautiful location in Hungary, in a perfect countryside setting, Daalarna Garden is a wonderful estate that is perfect for destination weddings. In the next section, we’ll explore all the reasons why the Daalarna Garden estate is the most beautiful wedding venue for weddings that last for days!
Would you like to have a wedding you’ll always remember? Don’t you want to spend just one day getting ready for your wedding, or would you prefer a long weekend or even a week-long wedding celebration? Then, a destination wedding is the wedding trend for you. With this concept, you will have an experience that will make your wedding not only a wonderful day but also an unforgettable journey and a great adventure with your loved ones around. The good news is that destination weddings are now available in Hungary, uniquely at the exclusive estate of Daalarna Garden, a five-hectare wonderland near Budapest! You’re guaranteed to have a great time here, not only because it’s the perfect place for your wedding but also because Daalarna Garden in Szentendre is the ultimate holiday destination! Here’s why you might consider booking the estate for several days for your perfect destination wedding!
Daalarna Garden is close to the Hungarian capital Budapest
Daalarna Garden is located in one of the most ideal locations in Hungary, only 15 kilometres from the Hungarian capital Budapest. This means that you can reach the venue in just 20 minutes from the outskirts of the capital, about half an hour from the city centre and about 40 minutes from Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport! This is an ideal distance, as most countryside wedding venues are several hours’ drive from the centre of Budapest, which can be very tiring on an exciting wedding day.
Daalarna Garden is less than half an hour’s drive from Hungary’s capital, Budapest.
This is especially true when it comes to destination weddings, where the guests and the couple want to explore the area and not only stay at the wedding venue. Well, the attractions of Budapest (such as Parliament, Buda Castle, Fisherman’s Bastion, Gellért Hill, City Park, Heroes’ Square, Hungarian State Opera, etc.) are only half an hour’s drive away from Daalarna Garden. And if you’re in the mood for a little shopping, the exclusive shops of Andrássy Street and Fashion Street near Deák Ferenc Square are only 30 minutes away from the estate as well! However, the location is not only perfect for those who want to visit the Hungarian capital, Budapest but also for those who want to get to explore the most beautiful Hungarian countryside, including the very popular tourist town, Szentendre!
Daalarna Garden is located in one of the most beautiful towns in Europe
Daalarna Garden is located on the outskirts of Szentendre, which is one of the most beautiful small towns in Hungary and Europe. It is in a beautiful setting surrounded by woods, fields, and meadows. The centre of this wonderful UNESCO World Heritage Site is only a 5-7 minute drive from the wedding venue, which is great news for those who like to get a little adventurous and cultural and explore the area and also discover the local sights during the destination wedding.
Szentendre is located on the Danube, with an authentic Mediterranean lifestyle and rich history, Baroque buildings and many Hungarian folk art shops where local craftsmen sell their lovely porteries. The city is a perfect combination of art and modern and old-fashioned lifestyle that makes a stroll through Szentendre the perfect relaxation experience for couples and their guests. If you want to book Daalarna Garden for a longer period of time, like a destination wedding, there are plenty of different activities to choose from in Szentendre. For example, you can visit Skanzen Village Museum, Hungary’s largest outdoor museum, which showcases Hungarian Carpathian folk architecture; Retro Design Center; Marzipan Museum, and lots of local churches, chapels, cathedrals and art galleries as well!
BBQ, garden cinema experience, swimming, pool party or just a relaxing walk at the lavender field: there are so many activities to choose from!
There are many activities to choose from during your destination wedding at Daalarna Garden
In addition to exploring the surrounding towns and natural attractions (Kő-Hegy and Duna-Ipoly National Park), the five-hectare estate of Daalarna Garden also offers plenty of activities for destination weddings (or slow wedding) concepts too! For example, an intimate BBQ or a bacon barbecue can be a great way to unwind after a busy wedding day, but you can also organise fun activities in the 6 x 21-metre infinity pool, including swimming, playing ball games or having parties in the pool. Even more so, the 400 m² paved sunbathing area around the pool can be used not only for relaxation but also for a range of other activities! The sun terrace also includes an outdoor kitchen and bar equipped with professional kitchen technology, where you can have dinners, lunches, and breakfasts and have the opportunity to chat about your special wedding moments.
You can also relive old memories in the Barn of Daalarna Garden, where you can enjoy the highest quality of sound and lighting equipment, as well as a 6-metre wide projection screen. It is the perfect place to screen pictures and old videos, for example, or you can even enjoy a private movie cinema experience! As the projection screen is movable, you can even organise an outdoor garden cinema experience during your destination wedding! If you want to do something extra special, you can also enjoy an exclusive wine tasting on request in Daalarna Garden’s wine cellar, equipped with high-quality NILAN air technology. The wine cellar offers a selection of wines, cheese specialities and ham snacks, which can be a great way to spend a cosy evening or just wind down after the wedding. In addition to all of this, you can enjoy a variety of activities in Daalarna Garden! And if you don’t want to do anything else but relax, the Stone House is perfect for that, too!
Daalarna Garden offers the ultimate comfort and luxury for every couple and guest during the destination wedding.
Daalarna Garden offers the ultimate luxury for a destination wedding
During the destination wedding, you can not only enjoy activities but also relax! In fact, you really need to relax because Daalarna Garden’s two-storey Stone House has been designed to offer guests the greatest possible exclusivity, luxury and comfort. The Stone House features a professional, fully equipped kitchen, a luxurious living room/ preparation room for the bride and groom, and three double bedrooms with panoramic views, each with an en suite bathroom and a private wardrobe. As an added special feature, the living room and one of the bedrooms overlook the lavender field, while the other bedroom has a spectacular view of the English garden! As part of your destination wedding, you can make the most out of these rooms and the comfort of the Stone House. No need to worry about how comfortable the bed will be or how comfortable the house will be, as guests who have stayed here have said that they have found the most comfortable furniture, beds and the softest carpets they’ve ever seen in the house!
Daalarna Garden will be only yours during the destination wedding; you don’t have to share it with anyone else
One of the best things about Dalarna Garden is that all of the active and passive activities listed above, as well as the indoor and outdoor spaces of the estate (i.e. the Stone House, the pool, basically the entire estate), are only available to those who have booked the wedding venue. This means that no outsiders, other clients or strangers are allowed to enter the estate. There are no curious eyes, no spying people!
At Daalarna Garden you can celebrate, get married, enjoy life and relax with your loved ones in a completely private and secluded place
This feature of Daalarna Garden is not only appreciated by the stars of Hollywood, but also by the couples and guests who have their destination wedding here, as most wedding venues do not offer this option. In our experience, in most hotels, there are other guests present, and it is difficult to reserve a section for exclusive use by invited wedding guests, not to mention that, in most cases, there is an additional fee for booking a private section. This is not the case at Daalarna Garden, as the exclusive use of the venue is already included in the standard booking fee.
Daalarna Garden is located in a beautiful and huge estate
The many activities (listed above) and the exclusivity could not be top class if they were all organised in a small space in a tiny, tiny area. Luckily, this is not the situation at Daalarna Garden, where the entire area is huge both inside and out! To begin with, the estate itself is five hectares in total, which includes a whole hectare of beautiful lavender fields. (This beautiful purple plantation is blossoming through two months, from the end of May until the end of July, so the guests of the destination wedding can freely enjoy it during this season!) But, of course, the estate is not only home to a lavender plantation but also to a walkway lined with sycamore trees, a small trickling stream, woodlands, fields, flower meadows and English parks! However, this is just the outdoor part of Daalarna Garden.
The estate of Daalarna Garden includes a two-storey, 160 m² Stone House with three double suites featuring a wardrobe, panoramic views and, of course, private bathrooms. There’s also a 200 m² Conservatory (where wedding dinners are usually held), a 140 m² Atrium (which can be used as a place for the reception, the party and the dancing), a 50 m² Cocktail Terrace and a 110 m² Barn, which is the perfect place for relaxation, privacy and conversations. But to be honest, each space can be used for the wedding couple’s wishes! And we haven’t even mentioned the huge 6 x 21-metre swimming pool or the 150 m² of dressing rooms and toilets on level -1 of Dalarna Garden, designed to provide full comfort for performers and wedding guests.
There’s plenty of space on the five-hectare estate of Daalarna Garden
Destination weddings at Daalarna Garden can be organised in a variety of locations within the estate
Daalarna Garden offers the perfect setting for destination weddings for up to 150 people, with a variety of indoor and outdoor spaces, allowing the wedding itself to take place in different locations within the estate. Welcome drinks on the cocktail terrace or by the pool. The wedding reception in the English Garden, perhaps in the Conservatory? Ceremony at the beautiful wrought iron garden gate, or maybe on the panoramic view of the one-hectare lavender field? There are endless possibilities at Daalarna Garden, whether it’s a wedding reception or a ceremony space. In fact, Daalarna Garden is the perfect location for wedding photography as there are so many different areas, surfaces and spaces, as well as panoramic views, that hundreds of beautiful, elegant wedding photo albums could be filled with pictures taken here.
