UNUSUAL WEDDING SPOTS

AIRPLANE HANGARS

Take off on a wedding adventure in wide-open spaces that can accommodate hundreds of guests.ONE OF OUR FAVORITES: In Louisville, Kentucky, rent out a World War II-era aviation hangar from Louisville Executive Aviation. The 24,000-square-foot space suits both small and large events. Bonus: Brides can choose their own caterers and vendors. louisvilleexecutive.com

CATEGORY #4

OUTDOOR RANCHES

Mother Nature provides most of the decorations for ceremonies held outside. ONE OF OUR FAVORITES: The Calistoga Ranch in California’s Napa Valley sits on 150-plus acres. The only downside? The blushing bride may have to compete with the dramatic views of the resort’s private vineyard and oak groves. calistogaranch.com

CATEGORY #1

RUSTIC BARNS

The romance of a barn wedding is undeniable. ONE OF OUR FAVORITES: The newly remodeled barn at Emerson Creek Pottery and Tearoom in Oswego, Illinois, is outfitted with antique chandeliers and a stone patio that overlooks the delightful property. ecreekpotteryandtearoom.com

CATEGORY #2

WINERIES

Lush vineyards provide a delicious backdrop for any celebration. ONE OF OUR FAVORITES: At Viansa Winery & Marketplace in Sonoma, California, couples can be married in a romantic candle-filled wine cellar or in an outdoor courtyard with a fountain. viansa.com
