Imagine yourself getting married in a renaissance palace or a church covered in precious artwork. Instead of a limousine, have a gondola ride, watching the sunset together. Have your reception in a secret garden in one of Venice's palazzos.

For those who feel that the canals of Venice do not invoke enough romance, a wedding in Florence is something to consider. Full of art, this area has remained true to its traditions and gives off an old world charm. Best of all, getting married in this area of Tuscany, the green heart of Italy, you have a wonderful backdrop to your wedding that is all natural.

Getting married in Italy is easy. For one, there is no residency requirement and you can get married on any day of the week (of course, special permission is required for Sunday weddings). Wedding planners and coordinators would be a great help to get everything done especially if you are not living in their town. They would know who the best vendors are for the area, and can help get your wedding details ironed out so that as when you arrive, practically all you'll have to say is, "I do".

This beautiful country is an absolute favorite for wedding destinations. There are so many options of where you can hold your ceremony - aside from Venice and Florence, there is Sicily, Rome, Sorento, Capri or even the Amalfi Coast. No matter where you choose, would be in one of the most romantic places in the world. Everywhere there is beauty under the blue Mediterranean sky.
