Italy is one of the most romantic places in the world, there’s no better place to celebrate love! With its rich history, breathtaking landscapes, and world-famous cuisine, Italy has long been a dream destination for couples tying the knot. For same-sex couples, it’s also a welcoming and inclusive place to begin their forever.
From the cobblestone streets of Florence to the sun-soaked beaches of Sicily, Italy offers endless opportunities to make your wedding day unique. Think about exchanging vows in a historic villa or surrounded by the hills, or hosting an “al fresco dinner” under twinkling fairy lights. It’s not just a wedding, it’s a fairy tale!
Since 2016, same-sex civil unions have been legally recognized in Italy. While the country has made great strides in LGBTQ+ rights, it’s worth noting that full marriage equality isn’t yet available. Civil unions, however, come with most of the same rights and responsibilities as marriage, making Italy a fabulous option for gay couples.
You’ll need valid passports, birth certificates, and a “nulla osta” (certificate of no impediment). Working with a local planner simplifies the process.
