Symbolic Weddings

Many couples do not want or cannot celebrate a formal civil or religious wedding ceremony and a symbolic ceremony is an ideal solution – thus avoiding legal documentation in Italy and expensive town hall fees n Italy. You may already be civilly married but want a ceremony in a beautiful location or to renew your vows on a special anniversary.

Symbolic ceremonies are celebrated by an English speaking officiant and can take place anywhere you like without restrictions, for any couple and for any reason as they are not legally binding. Unlike civil ceremonies which have to take place in town halls – this opens up the possibilities of having a ceremony in a garden, or on a gondola – the ideas are unlimited.

There is no documentation required for a symbolic wedding and it is the perfect choice for those who have already had a civil ceremony. A symbolic ceremony can consist of personalised vows and exchange of rings in an unusual setting, in a stunning panoramic location for a special anniversary celebration or a full scale wedding in a private garden, villa or castle. Venice Events organise symbolic weddings with the same attention to detail and seriousness as any civil or religious ceremony – a ceremony that is important, a personalised ceremony with special meaning and significance for the couple.
