Tips For Choosing The Ideal Location
When selecting an Italy wedding venue, you should consider renting exclusively. Are you happy to have people that are not part of your wedding party wandering around?
Next, as you choose a wedding venue, check if there are restrictions and specific Italian laws. Some places make you turn down the music at midnight as they may have neighbors to consider.
Of course, a private venue will give you more freedom as well as exclusivity. You will likely have fewer restrictions, which means that you and your guests can have the perfect wedding experience without the need to worry about unwanted interruptions or limitations.
As you look for the perfect wedding venue, you and your wedding planner should bear in mind the type of ceremony that you desire. Few places allow for a civil wedding service on-site, while almost all allow symbolic ceremonies.

Planning a destination wedding is extremely stressful and you’re basically praying and crossing your fingers that you pick the right vendors. To put this simply: Jules was the best vendor that we selected. We can confidently recommend him to any of our family, friends, and anyone having their wedding in Italy because we know how hard-working he is and his amazing attention to detail.
On our wedding day, it was raining and thundering a couple hours before the ceremony. Jules arrived on time and came to greet us. Instead of just waiting around for the rain to stop, he left our room to scout out the property and to assess the rain situation. We didn’t know this but he was also taking drone shots as the rain was dying down. Not a moment was wasted, he put his 100% effort into getting as many shots as he could for us. We really felt that we lucked out booking with Jules. He is organized, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented.
On top of everything, Jules captured the most beautiful photos of our wedding. He put us at ease and made us feel natural as we took photos around the property. He knew the perfect angles and lighting. We are so happy with how photos turned out and appreciated that we have these memories to keep forever!
