The Best Places to Elope in Medellin
El Poblado's golden courtyards, Comuna 13's murals, and Guatape's monolith an hour east. Some of the most photographically compelling settings in South America.
Couples ask for the best place to elope in Medellin as if choosing is hard.
It is hard, because everything is extraordinary and very different.
Within the city and an hour of it are some of the most photographically compelling settings in South America. The challenge is only choosing between them.

El Poblado is the polished, reliable heart: flower-lined streets, courtyard gardens, and a golden afternoon light that flatters everything. Comuna 13, transformed from notoriety into a canvas of murals, gives the contemporary, colour-saturated counterpoint and the city's story.
El Poblado and Comuna 13
El Poblado is the polished, reliable heart: flower-lined streets, courtyard gardens, and a golden afternoon light that flatters everything. Comuna 13, transformed from notoriety into a canvas of murals, gives the contemporary, colour-saturated counterpoint and the city's story.
Guatape
An hour east, the El Penon monolith and the painted town of Guatape give the landscape day, a monumental natural setting and a colour-saturated village no city neighbourhood can match for scale.
The right place depends on what the photographs need to hold. As your Elopement Curator I plan the day, coordinate the notaria and vendors, and both shoot and film it. Twelve years and 240+ couples in, the best Medellin elopements pair the city and Guatape in one story.
