Cypress-lined avenues, rolling hills, and vineyards bathed in the evening light: Tuscany is one of Italy’s most romantic wedding destinations—and one of the most diverse as well. Whether it’s a Renaissance town or an agriturismo nestled among vineyards: This guide shows you where and how you can get married in Tuscany, when the best time is, and what you should keep in mind when planning.
Why Tuscany?
Tuscany Brings People Together Landscape, Culture, and Cuisine like no other region: the Val d’Orcia, the hills around Siena and Lucca, along with wineries and historic villas. It is considered comparatively flexible and easy to plan – ideal for couples looking for elegance without the hustle and bustle of the big coastal towns.
Civil, religious, or symbolic?
Legally, you're getting married in a civil ceremony at the Municipality – Many towns in Tuscany offer particularly beautiful historic venues for this purpose. Those who prefer to take care of the legal formalities at home can celebrate a symbolic wedding ceremony – with freedom in terms of location and design, such as in the middle of a vineyard.
