Plan your wedding in Italy
Planning your wedding is as stressful as it is exciting and we at Dream Wedding understand this. It becomes even more difficult when you want to marry overseas, as it is difficult to get contacts and impartial advice, especially if there is a language barrier.
For this reason we have created this comprehensive site filled with useful advice on getting married in Italy. You can view various locations, wedding styles and destinations, as well as learn more about the culture and traditions of this beautiful country. In addition to this, we offer free, impartial advice to our members on locations, wedding styles, legal requirements and more.
You can also find interactive tools on time management when planning your wedding and on budget allocation, as well as creative ideas and inspiration on making your wedding individual and uniquely you.

PLAN YOUR WEDDING
More and more couples these days are moving away from ideas of tradition and history when planning their wedding, and towards celebrations that reflect their personalities and lifestyles more accurately. For many, this includes sacrificing the traditional wedding with as many guests as can be afforded for a smaller, more intimate celebration with close friends and family.
Wherever possible, we recommend that couples come out to Italy to view potential venues before making a final decision, as although all of our venues are of the highest quality, it is best to make sure that you really “click” with the place and that all of your questions are answered before making a final commitment. Here, we give you some advice on what to look out for and questions to ask to make the most of your venue visits.
Normally, your guests come to your wedding, enjoy the ceremony and the celebrations and either leave that night or the next morning. With a destination wedding in Italy, the situation is a little bit different however, as you wake up in the morning and your guests are still right there...
Traditionally the mother of the bride and the mother of the groom have had very different roles, with the mother of the bride doing most of the wedding planning, and the mother of the groom being advised to “show up, shut up and wear beige.” Nowadays both sides of the family and the couple themselves tend to chip in, so the roles have changed somewhat, and that can often cause conflict. Here’s how to avoid it!
Having only certain colours at your wedding is more than just a trend. It pulls the look and feel of the day together and gives it a unified, elegant feel. Deciding what colours to go for on such an important event can be daunting, so we have put together a guide to help you to decide.
