VALUNA Sailing

Small weddings.
On the Croatian coast.

Weddings, elopements and private weekends
on sailboats and islands in Croatia.

Our vision

At the start, everyone still checks the time. Later, no one does.

At some point the phones are somewhere below deck, someone opens another bottle of wine, and nobody quite knows what time it is. Those are usually the good evenings. We take care of the days around them.

About us

We spend a lot of time on boats.

Probably more than makes sense on land. Over the years you learn which bays stay empty when everywhere else is full, which islands go quiet in the evening, and where to tie up when you don't want any noise.

Often asked

What people ask us first.

Where do these weddings take place?

On the Croatian Adriatic. Mostly between Istria, Hvar, Vis, Brač and Dubrovnik. Which corner fits depends on what you're imagining — and how many people are coming.

Can we plan in English?

Yes. We're a German-Croatian couple. We plan with you in English or German, and speak Croatian with everyone on the ground.

How big do the celebrations get?

Usually between 2 and 60 guests. A handful of venues take more. Smaller is always fine.

When should we get in touch?

Nine to fourteen months ahead is comfortable. For summer weeks on the islands, sooner is better.
