THE NEED TO KNOWS

  • LEGAL REQUIREMENTS

    Paperwork depends on your nationality and documents often need to be translated and legalised.

  • PEAK SEASON

    Peak season is between May and September (Expensive and busy) so stick to the shoulder seasons.

  • WEATHER

    Summers can be very hot, so always have a back up plan for outdoor weddings.

  • TRAVEL LOGISTICS

    Stick to cities if you want places that are easier to get to, etc.

  • AIRPORTS

    Major airports etc.

  • VENUE RESTRICTIONS

    Historic venues often have rules such as noise limitations, decor restrictions and curfews.

  • PRICES

    While some elements are cheaper than the UK, popular locations (like Lake Como) can be very high-end

  • LANGUAGE DIFFERENCES

    Not all officials or vendors speak fluent English, especially in smaller towns. In these cases it’s best to hire a wedding planner to co-ordinate on your behalf.
