Spring has sprung, and we’re spotlighting scenic outdoor wedding spots in Gyeonggi Province where you can celebrate a truly memorable day surrounded by nature.

 

Adela Hanok, Yangpyeong

Adela Hanok in Yangpyeong reimagines traditional hanok architecture as a sleek, modern cultural complex.

This intimate venue hosts weddings as well as small gatherings like first‑birthday celebrations, family reunions, and corporate events.

 

With pine‑dotted courtyards and classic hanok pavilions, Adela offers a peaceful, timeless backdrop—perfect for couples who want to blend city convenience with natural charm. Its distinctly Korean aesthetic also attracts international couples seeking something authentic and photogenic.

 

Don’t skip Adela’s hanjeongsik course meals. Think japchae, savory jeon, caramel‑glazed samgyeopsal, bulgogi mushroom hot pot, and fragrant lotus‑leaf rice—many guests come just for the food.

 

First Garden, Paju

First Garden in Paju is a sprawling lifestyle complex that combines restaurants, wedding venues, play areas, and cozy cafés.  Set on roughly 20,000 pyeong (about 712,000 sq ft / 16.3 acres), it features whimsical rides, European‑style sculptures, and endless photo zones that appeal to families and couples alike. Its 23 themed gardens feel straight out of a fairytale.

 

Weddings at First Garden are offered on an exclusive rental basis, so couples enjoy full privacy for their outdoor ceremony. The 'Party Garden,' a roughly 500‑pyeong (about 17,800 sq ft / 0.41 acres) lawn, accommodates large ceremonies, while the 'Happy Garden' is perfect for smaller, more intimate celebrations—so there’s something for every couple’s vision.

 

For unpredictable weather, the indoor 'Gaudium' wedding hall provides a stylish, reliable alternative. From enchanted outdoor vows to elegant indoor affairs, First Garden covers every vibe, which is why it’s such a popular pick for engaged couples.
