Getting married in Italy offers a wide range of exclusive locations for seaside weddings in italy. Crown your love dream with a wedding on the Italian RivieraLying between the French Rivera and Tuscany, Liguria internationally known as Italian Riviera offers visitors miles of rugged and beautiful coastline interspersed with picturesque fishing ports and glorious sandy beaches. Sheltered by mountains behind this relatively thin strip of land offers a wide variety of holiday opportunities, from stunning landscapes which are a great favourite for nature lovers to luxurious upmarket resorts. It is the most romantic and picturesque seaside Italian region ideal for religious, civil or symbolic sea view ceremonies. Get married outdoor on a medieval castle facing the sea, in an aristocratic villa facing the delicious Portofino bays or in one of the many romantic churches, or rent your own sailboat or yacht for an exclusive yacht wedding celebration or special excursion.
The Riviera di Ponente that stretches from France to Genoa is a flowering paradise studded with such turn-of-the-century belle époque resort towns as San Remo, characterized by strikingly opulent villas and hotels. Civil weddings are celebrated in Villa Zirio surrounded by a beautiful park.
Set in a strikingly beautiful bay, fringed by palms and orange groves Rapallo features a bustling marina and a 16th century castle, once a prison which is set out from the town on a causeway. Destination weddings in Rapallo are performed in a 17t century Villa with gardens and park, a very private and luxurious location to celebrate your event.
Set in one of the most picturesque harbours Portofino has been a chic and elite destination for decades, with Princess Grace of Monaco, Humphrey Bogart and Sophia Loren among the many celebrities who have chosen to spend their holidays here. The pastel coloured building which tier upwards around the bay house luxurious hotels and chic boutiques, whilst the harbour plays host to some seriously expensive tastes as displayed by the numerous luxury yachts moored. The perfect location for stunning events in beautiful villas overlooking the sea.
This attractive small resort has a spectacular semicircular backdrop of mountains, which form a natural amphitheatre to protect the bay from the elements, and is characterised by the lush semi tropical vegetation that abounds. St. Margherita offers one of the finest Cathedrals for Catholic weddings (with sea views of course!) and one of the best wedding halls in the country; a 17th century villa/museum with huge park right on the ocean. The villa is available for receptions also. Everything is of the highest standard including the superb Palace hotels for a possible reception. Sip your cocktail on a terrace watching the sun go down as you toast your newly celebrated wedding; few locations can vie with the elegance and beauty of this small stretch of coastland.
Cinque Terre (five lands) is the name given to five fishing villages squeezed into little inlets in the cliffs, the middle three of which are only accessible by train or boat and all linked together by a stunning coastal footpath. The perfect destination for romantic eloping.
Called by the Roman "Port of Venus" for the beauty of its views, and indeed everything about this charming pastel coloured fishing village is pure romance. This 12th century village with its beautiful and romantic castle overlooking the sea offers the ideal setting for photographic sessions. There is no other Italian seaside location with the same wide and enchanting views on the sea, which give the visitor the impression they have stepped right into a post card. The town enjoys a panoramic position; in particular the local church is built in an amazing position high on a rock.
