Visit the Beautiful Amalfi Coast

The Amalfi Coast is a UNESCO World Heritage site and is naturally stunning to look at, due to the beautiful coastline and sea views that make up this area of Italy. Towering green hills and mountains descend into a sparkling blue sea, providing the perfect backdrop for your wedding location - especially if you’re looking to marry in Southern Italy. 

Find Yourself in Pretty Positano

Positano is a fantastic place for your wedding destination - those wanting a civil ceremony can choose to get married in Positano Town Hall before holding their reception at one of our other amazing Italian wedding venues. If you've decided to have a more traditional Catholic wedding, the Church of Santa Maria Assunta is a religious and archaeological landmark in this Italian town, featuring a colourful majolica tiled dome at the top of the building.

The Poseidon Hotel is an alternative venue that would suit your wedding reception down to the ground, nestled on a hilltop overlooking the sea. The hotel's restaurant, Il Tridente, serves an array of amazing foodie delights from the region, with the swimming pool and piano bar adding extra entertainment for the occasion.

Visit the Hidden Treasures of Ravello

Ravello is an ancient town situated on the Amalfi Coast, featuring more stunning locales to suit the perfect wedding. If you'd like your wedding officiated by a Catholic priest, then look no further than the Duomo Cathedral, the spiritual and social hub of Ravello. It's the perfect place for a religious ceremony, if you're so inclined.

The Hotel Bonadies makes for another amazing wedding destination, located in a serene corner of Ravello, with the historical Fontana Moresca taking pride of place nearby. This family-run hotel is a top-notch reception venue for your wedding - it's the perfect place for a symbolic ceremony or a vow renewal.

Host Your Wedding in the Wonderful World of Sorrento & Naples

The coastal town of Sorrento is located near the city of Naples, which is the regional capital of Campania and the third-largest city in Italy after Rome and Milan. As such, it's a fantastic area to visit, whether you're looking to get married or discover the area on your honeymoon.

There are lots of spectacular venues in the area to create the perfect wedding location, whether you're yearning for the hustle and bustle of Naples, or prefer to get married in the serene town of Sorrento.

Those wanting a quieter wedding might suit the 14th-century Cloisters of St Francis, situated in Sorrento itself, facing the Bay of Naples. This venue is the perfect place for a romantic wedding, nestled amongst the orange and lemon trees that characterise the area so well. You can even book a violinist to walk you down the aisle, adding a unique addition to your special day.

Those wanting a symbolic wedding should look no further than the Hotel Mediterraneo Sorrento, nestled on the cliffside of the Sorrento Peninsula. This hotel is set in a peaceful location 1.2km away from the heart of Sorrento itself, meaning you really can get the best of both worlds! It's a 5-star hotel, suitable for symbolic ceremonies or civil ceremonies, with several venues available, including the Sky Bar terrace and the Villa Fondi. The hotel has a fantastic food menu, suitable for every taste imaginable.

Get Married in Beautiful Tuscany

Tuscany is a region of Italy known for its vineyards and rolling hills. It is home to some major cities and towns, including Florence, Siena and San Gimignano. The beautiful surroundings of the area mean there really is something for everyone in Tuscany, whether you're wanting a civil wedding ceremony or a more traditional religious ceremony.

La Lucciolaia is an old farmhouse set on a tranquil hillside, overlooking the olive groves and vineyards of the surrounding estate. The entire farmhouse can be hired for your wedding, consisting of six stylish bedrooms with a rustic charm. It's the perfect venue for intimate outdoor ceremonies, with the patio and outdoor garden terrace providing a fantastic location for smaller wedding parties.

Those wanting a slightly larger wedding should head to Tenuta di Mensanello, set in the heart of the Chianti region. It's another farm estate, but this charming venue also features a swimming pool and several apartments. There's also a small church nearby for those wanting a religious ceremony, where a Catholic priest can be employed to officiate your wedding, for a customary catholic ceremony.

Discover the Visual Beauty of Venice

Venice is well known as a romantic destination for couples, with the city itself situated on several canals, giving the area a picturesque beauty. It's also an increasingly popular honeymoon destination, so if you choose to get married in Venice, you won’t have to go far to enjoy the holiday of your dreams after your actual wedding ceremony!

One particularly unique idea for an outdoor venue is a wedding on a Gondola, the traditional form of transport across the canals of Venice. It's an ideal location for a symbolic wedding or a vow renewal - you could choose to host the legal wedding at Venice Town Hall or a registry office in the UK afterwards. The ride itself will take around 40 minutes to complete, giving you plenty of time to exchange rings and say your vows

If you're hoping for a little more luxury, the Ca Sagredo Hotel is a magnificent 5-star hotel, situated on the Grand Canal in Venice. This hotel is actually a 15th-century palace that has designated official monument status, with the grand staircase featuring a selection of beautiful frescoes to make your wedding photos look out of this world. The Music Ballroom is the perfect location for your wedding breakfast.

Seek Out the Serenity of Lake Garda

Lake Garda is a lake found in Northern Italy at the bottom of the Alps, making for a very peaceful wedding destination for you and your spouse. Several picturesque resort towns are located nearby, just waiting for your wedding party to descend to start the festivities. 

There are lots of outdoor activities in the area, including cycling, hiking and watersports, so you can add something a little different to your dream wedding!

One amazing wedding destination to check out is Malcesine Castle, which is packed full of excitement and entertainment, featuring a vast array of venues to choose from. The Ristorante Treccani features first-class fine dining for you and your guests, making sure your wedding will be memorable for years to come! The terrace caters to up to 120 guests, so you can create a magical atmosphere for a wedding reception that will stretch out long into the evening!

You can also host a civil ceremony in Malcesine Castle itself - the castle is perched high above Lake Garda, giving you captivating views, which will make your wedding photos look fantastic! This 12th-century castle has several areas in which you can host your wedding, including the Rivellino Tower and the Casermetter - a large hall with a balcony located on the lake itself. 

Wherever you choose to host your civil wedding ceremony at Malcesine Castle, you can be sure that the beautiful surroundings will make the day very special for all involved!

Bask in the Peaceful Surroundings of Lake Como

Another beautiful part of Italy to host your wedding is the glorious Lake Como, which can be found just a few hours' drive north of Milan. It's slightly quieter than Lake Garda, so if you're wanting a bit of peace, Lake Como is a lovely location for weddings. The area also features an array of pretty ancient villages and towns, which can make for a fun trip for guests in attendance to explore.

Bellagio is one of the most famous towns in the area, making it a popular location for weddings in the Lake Como area. Civil marriage ceremonies can be held at Bellagio Town Hall, with this locale also featuring a selection of elegant hotels, quaint shops and a promenade. 

The Town Hall contains a small garden in which you can hold your wedding in a more picturesque setting. Getting married here is a popular choice, followed by a cruise on Lake Como afterwards to celebrate in style.

The Lake Como Boat Museum is a venue for those wanting something a little different to the norm - although it's still a spectacular wedding venue. The Lake Como Museum of Vintage Boats is a local landmark, dating back to the 19th century. If you're interested in local history and culture, this is the perfect wedding destination. It also offers plenty of space outside for an outdoor ceremony.

Celebrate in Style in Stunning Sicily

Sicily is one of the most popular places in Italy to visit, as this beautiful island is full of lush green valleys, quaint hillsides and beautiful villages. It's the perfect place for those looking for a gorgeous backdrop to their wedding photos, allowing you to look back at those lush memories years later. The scenery is characterised by medieval castles and rustic mansions, making Sicily an amazing place for your honeymoon, as well as your wedding.

Beach weddings are becoming more and more popular of late, so why not check out Tao Beach, which is nestled on the East coast of Sicily near Mount Etna. The golden sands and rocky coves make this a magnificent place to hold a symbolic ceremony, with the natural setting being perfect for exchanging vows. After the ceremony, you can drink champagne at the beach bar, whilst being serenaded by traditional Italian musicians, adding an extra air of romance to the day.

The Castello San Marco is another fantastic wedding venue in Sicily, offering a sense of both romance and history to give you the best of both worlds. This venue stands proud in the small village of Calatabiano, which is surrounded by grape vines, olive groves and citrus groves, with the village itself dating back to at least 900 BC. 

The Castello San Marco hotel boasts 28 elegant garden suites, as well as the Aquae Leonis Spa, allowing you to get pampered in style before your big day. You can choose to get married in the castle grounds or have a private beach wedding, so there really is something for every taste!
