The magic and romance of a wedding in Venice will make your Big Day unforgettable.

Imagine a floating city, built on 117 small and precious islands, with 150 picturesque canals and 409 bridges, colourful cascades of flowers spilling from balconies, singing gondoliers echoes down the canals and cobblestone streets, gorgeous palaces in their soft pastel pink and yellow reflecting the glow of the sun sinking into the sky - this is the magic and mystic atmosphere that you can breathe in this extraordinary city for your Venice wedding.

Civil Venice weddings are held in a stunning Renaissance palace overlooking the Rialto Bridge; Religious blessings are celebrated in one of the many enchanting churches with precious paintings and symbolic services can be organized in a lush secret garden, in a sumptuous Venetian Palace or even in a gondola.

And what about your wedding reception? You are spoilt for choice! The locations includes elegant ballrooms with frescoes, historical Palladian Villas along the Brenta River, traditional Venetian restaurants, luxury hotels facing Grand Canal and many other exclusive settings.
