5 reasons why you should get married in Florence
Most weddings Italea arranged have been in Florence, which is an obvious choice for us being based here. The true gem of the Renaissance period and the treasury for a third of all art in the world, Florence offers diverse wedding locations with gorgeous backdrops for photos in any season. Here are five reasons why you should get married in Florence.
- Florence Commune registers marriages of foreigners. That is, in addition to celebrating the event itself, you can have a civil ceremony and formally register your marriage. The ceremony is held in one of the most beautiful halls of Palazzo Vecchio – no stranger can get into it, only the newlyweds!
- Florence is an eye-candy or even eyegasm. The city is a perfect place for photoshoots with its soft light, a perfect mix of subdued colours, quaint ancient palazzos, cosy cobled streets and iconic views such as Brunelleschi’s dome or Piazza della Signoria. Climb higher and you will capture spectacular panoramic views spreading far and beyond.
- A broad variety of locations. It can be a historic palace in the heart of Florence, a terrace overlooking the Duomo or a cosy villa snuggly tucked on one of the nearby hills. Should you wish a religious ceremony, there are many Catholic churches to choose from, ready to seal the bonds of marriage. Beyond a shadow of a doubt, we will find your perfect place for the ceremony!
- Convenient logistics. Florence is a small city. If you’ve chosen a wedding venue in the city centre, you won’t even need a taxi for your guests to get there. Many venues are within walking distance. There is no need for bus hire to transport your guests, which saves some wedding budget. After all, this money could be spent on another crate of Tuscan wine.
- Florence enjoys a very central position. Getting married in Florence is great because it is in the geographical centre of Italy. It is easy to plan pre-wedding and post-wedding activities from here, be it a wine tour in Chianti for your hen party, a honeymoon on Lake Como or an after-party trip to the southern coast of Amalfi.
