Our highlights for unforgettable civil weddings in Italy
Who wouldn’t want a unique, unforgettably beautiful wedding?
A great alternative to the local registry offices in the US, Australia or England is a civil wedding abroad at a romantic location.
A wedding in Italy fulfils the wish of many couples to make their wedding a very special and unique experience.
On a trip, one leaves everyday life behind; new impressions and experiences connect and provide the perfect setting for an unforgettable civil wedding ceremony.
Especially in recent years, the desire for an unforgettable intimate wedding celebration with few guests has increased.
Thus, many couples wish for an unforgettable intimate civil wedding ceremony in a small setting. Be it just the two of you, with witnesses, children or a few guests – here are our highlights for a civil wedding ceremony in Italy:
Venice
One of the most popular places for a civil wedding in Italy is Venice.
Romantic canals, enchanting squares and ancient Renaissance palaces make Venice simply the ideal place for a dream wedding ceremony.
Palazzo Cavalli, located on the Rialto, is the most booked venue for very small wedding parties and couples who only want to get married as a couple. The ancient palace with a wonderful balcony overlooking the Grand Canal and the Rialto Bridge provides an excellent backdrop for unforgettable wedding photos.
For larger wedding parties, we recommend the festive Cuoi d’oro hall in Palazzo Ca’ Vendramin Calergi. In the centre of Mestre, couples can say “I do” in a beautiful hall in Palazzo della Provvederia.
Lake Como
The fascinating northern Italian Lake Como offers many possibilities for an unforgettable wedding ceremony in northern Italy. From ancient, small registry offices around the lake like Varenna to stately villas and romantic Italian gardens, our couples can find their perfect location depending on their budget and wishes.
Lake Como, with its direct proximity to Germany and Austria as well as Switzerland, is not only easy to reach, making it perfect for a wedding in Italy. This upper Italian mountain lake is beautiful and enchants with breathtaking nature.
Around Lake Como there are many small towns such as Varenna or Bellagio, which with their beautiful and charming registry offices are an ideal place for civil weddings. Those who prefer an outdoor location will certainly find what they are looking for in the municipality of Tremezzina. With parks and villas, there are countless possibilities for an outdoor civil wedding here.
Lake Garda
Lake Garda, which has been particularly popular and enchanting for decades, has not only been a popular holiday destination for many years. Lake Garda is also a trendy region for destination weddings abroad.
A mild microclimate and landscape make Lake Garda the ideal place for civil weddings in northern Italy. Immerse yourself in the Italian Dolce Vita in small towns like Bardolino or Malcsesine; here bridal couples and their guests can indulge in Italian specialities in quaint trattorias or fine restaurants.
Our favourites for a wedding ceremony on Lake Garda are without doubt small romantic places like Bardolino, Sirmione or Malcesine. For example, bridal couples can enjoy a dreamlike view of Lake Garda on the Castello Scaligero surrounded by ancient walls. This is the absolutely perfect setting for unforgettable wedding photos.
Tuscany
The central Italian region of Tuscany, with its diverse landscape, offers a wide range of options for a civil wedding ceremony in Italy. Romantic registry offices in ancient Tuscan towns such as Pienza, Cortona or Montepulciano are particularly popular. Here, couples say “I do” in ancient council halls with centuries of history, richly decorated with antique frescoes or wood-panelled, carved ceilings.
Couples who want to say “I do” in the open air have several options for a romantic wedding in Tuscany, such as Italian gardens and villas or ancient walls like the ruins of the monastery of San Galgano.
