What are the top 5 places for Italian Weddings? I’ve always loved Italy and have really appreciated the relaxed culture, the food, the buildings and the scenery whenever I’ve gone there. I used to teach Italian students English as a foreign language so I’ve travelled around a lot of Italy. I’ve really enjoyed going to Rome, Naples, Pompeii, Venice, Bari, Cisternino, Verona, Pisa and Florence. In fact I proposed to my Wife Kirsty on the bank of the Grand Canal in Venice so that place means a lot to me! I think the top 5 places for Italian Weddings are…

1) Tuscany- the rolling hills and vineyards and pretty Castles and towns in Tuscany really lend themselves to being excellent backdrops for your wedding. Flights are nice and easy to Pisa or Florence from the UK too.

2) Venice- you see Venice on the movies or TV programmes and you think it can’t live up to what you’ve seen but it genuinely surpasses expectations. The beauty of the buildings, tiny streets and canals weaving through the City make Venice a top choice for weddings.

3) The Lakes- Lake Garda and Lake Como are very popular places for destination weddings in Italy. The vivd blue colour of the lakes and the small settlements and venues nestled into the hills around the lakes make for incredible ceremony locations.

4) The Amalfi Coast- There are so many unspoilt elevated positions along the Amalfi Coast to get married. On one side the ocean down below you and the other side beautiful mountains. This is why lots of people choose places near Naples, Pompei and Sorrento.

5) Sicily- Sicily is very untouched and unspoilt and really suits a rustic wedding. It’s a little further to travel as Sicily is an island just South West of mainland Italy. It suits Spring and Autumn weddings as in the Summer temperatures can easily reach the 40s!
