Everyone deserves a dream wedding and there are probably more ways to get married in Italy than you ever dreamt possible. You could say your vows in an elegant and grand palazzo or the romantic hall or chapel of a medieval castle. You may wish to be more traditional and get married in the simplicity of an ancient church decorated with your favourite flowers. If you prefer to celebrate your wedding in the open air, do so in the summer sunshine amid the vineyards of the Tuscan countryside with magnificent rolling landscapes adorned with sun kissed olive groves. Picture your wedding in the walled garden of a lakeside villa, abundant with azaleas and bursting with roses and hydrangeas. Delight in the charm and simplicity of a piedmontese Relais or Agriturismo or let the breathtaking view of the bay of Naples provide the magic for your perfect day. These are just examples of the kind of locations that Italy offers and we at The Italian Connection , can arrange for you to marry by civil or religious ceremony, almost anywhere in Italy that you wish.
All our weddings are exquisitely tailored to suit you, from the food and wine to the floral arrangements, hair and makeup, to musicians and singers from operatic artists to choirs, from photographers to videographers. Close your eyes and allow us to take you on a journey…......
A beautiful backdrop, vibrant colours. That evening a celebratory feast for all, where everyone gets to spend some time together at a local rustic trattoria or aboard a galleon. The ceremony is simply perfect, a floral arch, petals and lanterns light the way to your partner waiting for you, a string quartet playing in the summer evening haze. Vows are said and you all gather in the gardens for Bellinis, Mimosas and Fragolinis while enjoying the various canapés; honey glazed figs with goat cheese and truffle honey, crostini with gorgonzola and pear or ricotta salami and rocket, mushrooms with mascarpone. It is now time to move to the reception room, a ballroom dripped in frescoes. Applause as you enter this magical room filled with candles and roses, deep reds, so many flowers. Speeches and the meal now commences, a four course meal, lobster ravioli in a clam and mint sauce or hand-made pasta with duck Ragù sauce and porcini mushrooms, citrus enthused risotto or giant ravioli stuffed with goat cheese and aubergines; For your main a sea bass fillet in a potato crust with fennel, breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese topping served with a mint and caper sauce or sliced beef with cherry tomatoes and melted cheese; watermelon and lemon sorbet or pineapple carpaccio with cherry liqueur, orange juice and Grand Marnier. Your meal is followed by the presentation of your 4-tiered cake, decorated with your themed colour. The lights now go out and the fireworks commence, your initials emblazoned in the night sky and it is now time to party…!
