5 Reasons Why An Italian Wedding Could Bring You The Day Of Your Dreams
Your wedding day will probably be one of the most important days of your life. These days women have a lot of milestones in their lives: travelling the world, being a maid of honour, getting that promotion at work. But your wedding day will probably still be up there on the list of your most important days.
That’s why it’s important to get it right. After all, we all hope to only get married once! But what can you do to make your day different to a standard ceremony followed by a boozy reception? Well, having it abroad is one thing you can do. Sure, it takes a bit more planning, but there’s nothing like bringing your love of travel in line with the biggest day of your life. There are so many places to choose from, but here’s why we’re going to focus on having a beautiful Italian wedding…
The food
Think of Italy, and you’re probably going to think of food straight away. The Mediterranean cuisine has spread all over the world, with pretty much every country now familiar with pizza and pasta. But, if you’ve ever been to Italy, you will know that authentic cuisine is far superior to any replicas. Plus, there is far more to it than just pasta and pizza. Consider booking a wedding planner who will be able to speak to local catering companies about what food they can provide for your wedding. Italian food is also surprisingly healthy, so expect lots of fresh seafood and vegetables too. Perfect for any health conscious guests!
The drink
It wouldn’t be a wedding without a celebratory glass of vino, and there’s no better place than the home country itself to experience some stunning wine. Italians rank fifth on the global wine consumption list, so you can rest assured that there will be plenty of quality vino for your guests to enjoy.
The venues
Italy is home to some of the most beautiful scenery in the world, making it an ideal place to host a wedding. The rolling hills of Tuscany will provide a dramatic backdrop to your wedding pictures, or see modern meet ancient in cities such as Rome. Much Italian architecture is inspired by the Renaissance period. So, if you are looking for wedding venues abroad you are sure to find something eye-catching.
The weather
During spring, fall and winter it can be difficult to judge Italy’s weather, as it can vary greatly. Getting caught in a torrential downpour isn’t ideal for your wedding day, and neither is an evacuation warning due to any volcanic activity! But, if you go during the summer months, you are pretty much guaranteed warm weather, with temperatures around 83 degrees Fahrenheit.
The culture
Italians are known for their friendly nature and close family ties. You are likely to experience great Italian hospitality with your wedding venue and with wherever you and your guests are staying. Italians also see eating together as a social occasion, so be prepared for raucous, exciting meals out during your trip. Nothing is too much trouble for Italian hosts, so if you need anything, don’t be afraid to ask.
