Whether you want a religious rite or a civil union, a Protestant, Catholic or Jewish ceremony, a magnificent church wedding or a simple celebration in a wedding hall, you can find just the right location in Italy for that dream wedding destination or unique and romantic Italian honeymoon.

A Destination Wedding or Honeymoon in Tuscany

Known for its awe-inspiring Renaissance art and the wealth of medieval architecture, Tuscany is one of the most popular of wedding destinations and honeymoons in Italy. One popular choice for destination weddings is the Tuscan capital of Florence, which lies on the coast and is home to numerous splendid churches and palaces, as well as the world’s fourth largest cathedral. The wedding hall in Florence is in the former Palazzo, in a 14th century medieval palace. Its “Red Hall,” decorated in red silk and gilded mirrors, is one of the most elegant locations for a wedding, whether it be a large wedding or a simple ceremony with only a few guests.

Other excellent choices include the city of Siena, whose central city square has been called the most beautiful in Italy; Pisa, famous for its leaning tower, the walled town of Lucca, or perhaps Arezzo, with its famous frescos. Or explore the smaller cities and towns, farms and villas, located among rolling hills, cypress trees, olive groves and vineyards for just the perfect location for your Tuscan wedding destination or honeymoon.

A Destination Wedding in Sicily

Truly a “place apart,” the island of Sicily, largest island in the Mediterranean, is an ideal location for a fairytale wedding destination or honeymoon in Italy.

Mother Nature provides her own romantic scents, in the form of orange and lemon groves, which makes this one of the most romantic wedding destinations in Europe.
