Destination wedding · Italy
Why here
Venice is a city made for unforgettable entrances, by water and by candlelight. As you can see from these photos, it is a place that carries a look beautifully.
Plan for the season
April-June and September-early October: mild (about 18-24 C in September) with thinner crowds than the hot, packed July-August peak.
Good to know
Acqua alta (tidal flooding) runs roughly late October-early March, most often in November-December. Civil weddings happen only in municipal venues such as Palazzo Cavalli; U.S. citizens need the Italian sworn-declaration paperwork. Day-trip guests may owe the city access fee on designated peak days (overnight guests are exempt).

It is a place made for brides and for any special occasion, and one I look forward to coming back to again and again. If you would like me to be part of your day, book me. I am looking forward to it.
