What&#8217;s that you say? Germany? Yes, indeed Germany and they are just a few of the growing number of couples who have chosen Galeriafotografia International to capture theirs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are many reasons for couples to marry in Germany. For some, its close family ties as many expatriates, particularly those from the bustling financial centres of London and Frankfurt has found love at work and come home to marry in front of friends and family. For others, it&#8217;s the plethora of beautiful German castles, churches, and villas that make it a wonderful dream come true.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14771\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14771\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-14771\" title=\"Desintation Weddings\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/image0011-1.jpg\" alt=\"Weddings in Germany\" width=\"800\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14771\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14771\" title=\"Desintation Weddings\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/image0011-1.jpg\" alt=\"Weddings in Germany\" width=\"800\" \/><\/noscript> Image Courtesy of GaleriaFotografia International<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Arash and Tanja( 2009) Schloss<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14772\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14772\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-14772\" title=\"Wedding Venues International\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/image0041-1.jpg\" alt=\"Weddings Abroad\" width=\"800\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14772\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14772\" title=\"Wedding Venues International\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/image0041-1.jpg\" alt=\"Weddings Abroad\" width=\"800\" \/><\/noscript> Image Courtesy of GaleriaFotografia International<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">\u00a0Donna and Thomas\u00a0(2007) Die Wurzburger Residenz<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Germany has very temperate climates during the summer months and is a very versatile country, with mountains in the south (Bavarian Alps) that tower above lush green valleys filled with small hamlets, mountain chalets and quiet villas that beckon those who want something quaint and unique. The southern state of Bavaria is home to many castles including the famed Neu Schwanstein as well as a treasure trove of Baroque churches that will delight your soul.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Not far from Munich in Bavaria, very near to the Austrian city of Salzburg lies the famed K\u00f6nigssee and its triple-concha designed the church, St Bartholomew. Its stucco-work design by Salzburg Master Joseph Schmidt dates back to 1697 and is a terrific place to have a wedding. One of its major highlights is that it can only be reached by boat, so it&#8217;s a perfect location for a destination wedding with many out of town guests. We photographed the three-day wedding of Sarah and Christian (US) there at the venerable Steigenberger Hotel in 2007 with fabulous results.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14773\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14773\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-14773\" title=\"Weddings In Germany\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/image010-1.jpg\" alt=\"Wedding venues Abroad\" width=\"800\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14773\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14773\" title=\"Weddings In Germany\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/image010-1.jpg\" alt=\"Wedding venues Abroad\" width=\"800\" \/><\/noscript> Image Courtesy of GaleriaFotografia International<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Sarah &amp; Christian (K\u00f6nigssee) 2007)<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14774\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14774\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-14774\" title=\"Weddings Abroad\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/image012-1.jpg\" alt=\"Luxury Wedding Photographers\" width=\"800\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14774\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14774\" title=\"Weddings Abroad\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/image012-1.jpg\" alt=\"Luxury Wedding Photographers\" width=\"800\" \/><\/noscript> Image Courtesy of GaleriaFotografia International<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Shayne and Fabian (2010) Burg Schwarzenstein<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14775\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14775\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-14775\" title=\"Luxury Wedding Photographers\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/image011-1.jpg\" alt=\"Weddings Abroad\" width=\"800\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14775\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14775\" title=\"Luxury Wedding Photographers\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/image011-1.jpg\" alt=\"Weddings Abroad\" width=\"800\" \/><\/noscript> Image Courtesy of GaleriaFotografia International<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Grace and Simon (2009) Schloss Hotel Bunter Hunde<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The entire German state is full of surprises from the Rhine valley, famous for its wines and vineyards, to the Mosel Region that straddles the western border of Germany and France, northward past Hamburg. And for a real treat venture toward the East to the beautiful city of Dresden where the landscape is dotted with castles and staff that cater to your every whim. Yes, Germany is indeed full of surprises!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">GaleriaFotografia is led by Derek Bembry (American) and Britta Weber (German) and together\u00a0they photograph each wedding they book, personally.\u00a0\u00a0They are known for\u00a0their natural, authentic imagery and quiet way of photographing. There is a natural perception amongst most foreign brides that wedding photography is Germany is horribly entrenched in a conservative plodding fashion. And while this is no longer true, that perception remains. Their style dispels that notion and usually brings on a huge sigh of relief when you find\u00a0them on the web.\u00a0They understand the stress of searching for vendors while you are thousands of kilometres away and in a language you don&#8217;t understand. So much of what\u00a0they do involves your trust. Not only that they will capture every moment that&#8217;s important to you, but that after the wedding is over, trust that\u00a0they will follow-up and deliver your final work to you as promised.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">GaleriaFotografia invites you to visit\u00a0their galleries at galeriafotografia.com and especially take a moment to look at\u00a0their multimedia videos. These are a compilation of still, High definition video and music from one wedding and it shows\u00a0their versatility, style and each is included with all of\u00a0the wedding packages. It&#8217;s a great way to show your guests who could not be there personally what your day was really like.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question; What does Anna &#038; Mikhail (UK), Donna &#038; Thomas (US), Grace &#038; Simon (UK), Arash &#038; Tanja (Switzerland), Dharshika &#038; Alexander (UK), Laura &#038; Mathias (US), Kunal &#038; Oda (UK) and Shayne &#038; Fabian (US) have in common?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":126272,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[83,22],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14746","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-luxury-weddings-abroad","category-wedding-planning"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14746","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14746"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14746\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/126272"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14746"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14746"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14746"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
