The Celebration

Wedding Day

We would be honored to have you with us as we say "I do" — surrounded by the plains, poplars and warm hearth of a true Vojvodina salaš.

Ceremony

4:00 PM

An intimate outdoor ceremony under the old walnut trees — indoors by the fireplace if the weather turns.

Cocktail Hour

5:00 PM

Rakija, local wines and Vojvodina bites served in the courtyard while we take photos.

Reception

6:00 PM — Late

Dinner, toasts, tamburaši and dancing until the small hours. Come hungry and bring your dancing shoes.

The Venue

Salaš 137

Međunarodni put 325, Čenej, Novi Sad, Serbia

A beautifully restored traditional farmstead on the Čenej plains, about 15 minutes north of the Novi Sad city center. Horses, home cooking and old-Vojvodina charm — exactly how we wanted to celebrate.

Parking is available on site, and we will organize a shuttle from the city center — details on the Travel page.

Getting Here & Staying

Travel

Below you'll find our favorite hotels in Novi Sad and the easiest ways to reach the city. Please reach out with any questions about travel or transportation.

Getting to Novi Sad: Fly into Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport (BEG). From there it's about a 1-hour drive to Novi Sad by taxi or pre-booked transfer, or take the A1 bus to Belgrade Centar station and hop on the fast train — it reaches Novi Sad in about 36 minutes. On the wedding day, a shuttle will run from the city center to Salaš 137 and back (about 15 minutes each way); exact times will be shared with your RSVP confirmation.

Hotel Leopold I

Petrovaradin Fortress, Novi Sad

A romantic hotel inside the walls of Petrovaradin Fortress itself, with views over the Danube and the city. Unbeatable atmosphere — book early, it's small.

Website

Sheraton Novi Sad

Polgar Andraša 1, Novi Sad

Modern full-service hotel with a pool and spa, a short drive from the center. The most comfortable option if you prefer international-standard amenities.

Website

Prezident Hotel

Futoška 109, Novi Sad

Elegant boutique hotel with a spa and a well-regarded restaurant, near Futoški Park — a quiet base a short taxi ride from the old town.

Website

Hotel Centar

Uspenska 1, Novi Sad

Sleek design hotel literally steps from Trg Slobode (Liberty Square). The best pick if you want everything — cafes, restaurants, sights — at your doorstep.

Where to Stay

You can also find great apartments on Airbnb and Booking.com. We recommend these areas:

  • Stari Grad (Old Town) — the pedestrian heart of Novi Sad around Trg Slobode, Zmaj Jovina and Dunavska streets. Everything is a short walk away.
  • Petrovaradin — across the Varadin Bridge, beneath the fortress. Cobbled streets, quiet charm and the best sunset views of the city.
  • Liman / Danube Park area — leafy, relaxed neighborhoods between the center and the river, close to the quay and the Štrand beach.
  • Grbavica — a residential area just south of the center with plenty of modern apartments, cafes and bakeries.

Things to Do

Make a weekend of it! Novi Sad — the "Serbian Athens" and a recent European Capital of Culture — is compact, relaxed and best explored on foot, with a glass of local wine never far away.

Petrovaradin Fortress

Petrovaradin, Novi Sad

The "Gibraltar on the Danube" — a vast 18th-century fortress overlooking the river, famous for its clock tower whose hands are reversed (the big hand shows hours, so fishermen could read the time from afar). Wander the ramparts, explore the artists' ateliers, and stay for sunset. This is also the home of the EXIT festival.

Website

Trg Slobode (Liberty Square)

Stari Grad, Novi Sad

The city's grand main square, framed by the neo-Gothic Name of Mary Church and the neo-Renaissance City Hall. Start here and drift down Zmaj Jovina and Dunavska, the two prettiest streets in town.

Novi Sad Synagogue

Jevrejska 11, Novi Sad

A stunning Hungarian Secession (Art Nouveau) synagogue from 1909, now also used as a concert hall. One of the most beautiful buildings in the city — check for evening concerts.

Museum of Vojvodina

Dunavska 35-37, Novi Sad

The story of the Pannonian plain from prehistory to the 20th century — including two gilded Roman parade helmets that are worth the visit alone.

Website

Matica Srpska Gallery

Trg Galerija 1, Novi Sad

The finest collection of Serbian art from the 18th to the 20th century, housed in the city that has been Serbia's cultural heart for two centuries. Quiet, elegant and rarely crowded.

Website

Laze Telečkog Street

Laze Telečkog, Novi Sad

Novi Sad's liveliest little street — a row of bars and cafes packed shoulder to shoulder, buzzing from morning espresso to late-night rakija. Our recommendation for after-dinner drinks.

Fish Market Quarter (Ribja Pijaca)

Stari Grad, Novi Sad

The blocks around the old fish market hide some of the city's best kafanas and restaurants — try fish paprikash, a Danube classic, with a glass of Fruška Gora white.

Danube Park & the Quay

Dunavska, Novi Sad

A romantic 19th-century park in the center, then a long riverside promenade with views of the fortress. Rent a bike and ride the quay — the whole city does.

Štrand Beach

Liman, Novi Sad

The city's beloved sandy Danube beach. In November it's too cold to swim, but the riverside walk and the cafes nearby are lovely on a crisp day.

Fruška Gora National Park

20 min from Novi Sad

The green mountain south of the city, dotted with 16 Orthodox monasteries — the "Holy Mountain" of Serbia. Combine a monastery visit with lunch in the vineyards.

Website

Sremski Karlovci & Wine Tasting

15 min from Novi Sad

A perfectly preserved baroque town on the Danube and the historic home of Bermet, the dessert wine once served on the Titanic. Family wineries offer tastings all along the main street — our favorite half-day trip.
