Planning
a Venice Wedding

What
paperwork and legalities do couples need to handle to arrange a wedding
in Venice?
The paperwork is extremely
easy for a legal wedding in Venice when handled by Regency, as we provide
full assistance with the legalities. American couples can complete this
all in one or two weekday mornings here in Italy and do not need to
obtain any documents at home other than their passports.
What's
the most popular wedding season in Venice? During this time, how long
in advance would you recommend couples begin planning their wedding and
reserving their venue?
June and September are the
most popular months, but beginning in early Spring couples begin marrying
here all the way through to the end of October. However, I've even seen
couples love marrying here in the middle of Winter. I recommend couples
reserving their wedding 6-12 months in advance, depending on the size
of the wedding and location.
However, I have organized
weddings here with even just one month's notice.
What
special Venetian touches and traditions can couples add to their ceremony?
In
Venice, the water is such an important facet of the city that couples
like to include in their wedding celebration. As they take their traditional
wedding gondola ride following the ceremony, they drop flowers and other
objects into the water as a sign of their eternal love for each other
and in honor of the water of Venice.
Venice is home to some of the greatest classical musical composers of
all time, such as Locanda Vivaldi, composer of the famous "Four
Seasons". As our string quartet plays, the Venetian classical music
theme runs throughout the ceremony and reception.
The Venetian masks were originally made for Carnevale but have now come
to symbolize Venice. At receptions, we have them placed at each person's
place setting. As the guests are seated for dinner, they wear the masks.
This makes for such memorable wedding pictures and adds a special Venetian
touch to their celebration.
What
types of wedding packages does your company offer?
-Catholic church weddings
-Civil weddings in the town hall of Venice
- Legal weddings in private venues since we have the unique opportunity
to arrange civil weddings in private antique palaces, villas, gardens,
and terraces of your choice.
Our basic ceremony packages
include overall coordination for the ceremony and full assistance leading
up to and on the wedding day, the ceremony location fee, an English
speaking supervisor for the ceremony, full assistance with the religious
paperwork (for Catholic weddings) and legal paperwork (for civil weddings),
English speaking celebrants or translators when needed, a special wedding
gondola or motorboat, photography, music and a bridal bouquet and boutonniere.
What
special advice would you have for brides considering a wedding in Venice?
Remember to appreciate every
minute of the most beautiful day of their lives in the most romantic
city in the world.
