Southern Europe · Mediterranean

Italy is synonymous with romance – whether for a weekend away, a holiday or a wedding. The sea, islands, historic cities and incredible cuisine – all within easy reach.

Italy offers something different every time you visit. Whether it’s a weekend away together, a honeymoon, an anniversary or a longer holiday, you can choose from seaside destinations, islands, lakes and historic cities – or combine a few of them on a scenic road trip. And if you’re planning a wedding in Italy, a whole new range of venues opens up – from historic villas to grand palaces offering more space and privacy.

From Lake Garda through Tuscany to Sicily, it’s not just the atmosphere that changes. Accessibility, seasonality and the range of things to see and do vary from place to place. Weddings also bring additional paperwork and practical considerations, which can differ depending on the location. And if you have something more special than an ordinary holiday in mind, it’s worth starting early, as arrangements can sometimes move at their own distinctly Italian pace. That’s why our articles explore Italy not just through its scenery, but also through what it’s actually like to travel, celebrate and plan something special there.

Winter wedding in Venice

A Winter Wedding in Venice

Picture Venice in December. Lights shimmer on the canals, the windows of pastry shops tempt you to stop, and a water taxi is waiting outside your hotel instead of a car. In a moment, you could be gliding along the Grand Canal towards your wedding ceremony.
