Photo credit Morlotti StudioCREATIVE WEDDING Britta Hartmann-De Marchi of Creative Wedding explains what a wedding planner needs to know to give good advice and a first cost overview. Budget: a budget is helpful to understand which region of Italy may be right and what type of location is affordable. Style/ambience: Tell me about your ideas and dreams, about colours, ambience, friends. This helps me to understand if your budget can match this or what alternatives you may have. Region of Italy: Let me know if you have memories of a region. These landscapes, cities, cultures can develop into proposals. Civil or church wedding: Different nationalities have different ways of preparation for a civil wedding, and for Catholic Church weddings in Italy, it is important to know your religion. Date: Not only summertime is enjoyable in Italy; winter weddings can be big fun, in April and May the sun is already out, and autumn can be still warm and less touristy. Guests: Help me work out suitable locations/hotels. Who is coming? Is it more a formal group of family and business partners, in this case you surely want to make a good impression. Is it a more friend-orientated party, where we focus on fun? The better you describe your expectations, the more precise and correct the information I may put together for you.

If you want to be married in the eyes of God your wedding can be celebrated in one of Rome’s many churches. You can get married civilly before the religious wedding or have a religious wedding legally binding too.
