WEDDING IN ROME
WEDDING CEREMONY Churches & Catholic Wedding Service If you are planning a Catholic Wedding Service, Rome offers a large number of church locations to choose from. Both the bride and groom need to be baptized and confirmed in the Catholic Church and be able to provide proof of these ceremonies. Once you provide these documents, you can begin to plan the wedding. This sacramental preparation can often take as much as six months to a year to complete and involves meeting with a priest and discussing the responsibilities and expectations of married life in the eyes of the church.
Civil Wedding: Campidoglio or Caracalla Venue Civil weddings can be performed at the famous CAMPIDOGLIO, right in the heart of town, located within the most impressive antiquities such as the Coliseum, The Roman Forum, Piazza di Venezia. The Campidoglio is part of one of the historical Seven Hills of Rome, and in earliest times was the epicenter of the Roman Empire, the place where the city's first and holist temples stood, including its most sacred Temple of Jupiter. Civil weddings are celebrated in a Palace which is the seat of the civic administration of the city since the 12th century A.C. The interior is in Renaissance style with period furniture and rich tapestries The scale of the towering ruins of ancient Rome's most beautiful and luxurious public baths, the BATHS OF CARACALLA, hints at their past splendor. They were inaugurated by CARACALLA (Marcus Aurelius Antonius) in 217, and were used until the 6th century. The baths contained athletic club, conference rooms, pool, libraries, shops and art galleries. Civil weddings can take place in a restored Roman Monastery inside this ancient Bath Complex.

Symbolic Wedding For couples who would like a less formal approach, or for couples who have already had a civil ceremony the Symbolic Wedding Service is an ideal choice. Since symbolic wedding ceremonies or Italy wedding blessings have no legal restrictions, all the available traditions may be followed. These ceremonies, for first-times and recommitments, can be held in religious chapels as well as any of our elegant Renaissance-era villas, medieval castles, stunning gardens, parks or just about any other location you can think of! Few additional things to consider when planning a Symbolic wedding ceremony. First, a symbolic ceremony is not legally binding - so the couple needs to have a civil service prior. The symbolic or blessing services may not be held by a pastor or member of a religious community as it is purely symbolic. There is no paperwork or licensing required but they may receive a symbolic certificate to commemorate the wedding service. The blessing of symbolic service can be held anywhere and include traditional vows.
