How much does a wedding cost in Italy? A wedding in Italy could be economically convenient for you, let’s see how.
For those of you wondering how much a wedding costs in Italy, I may have good news for you today.
Studies confirm that Italy is one of the most sought-after countries in the world for destination weddings.
Art, culture, mild climate, natural and architectural beauties, and good food help us climb this ranking.
This makes us very proud and is why we always strive to do our best to live up to the prestige that we represent as professionals in the field.
Given Italy’s reputation, some brides think that everything is super expensive and do not consider it as a destination for their wedding.
Today, I want to dispel this myth!
Why Italy is convenient for destination weddings.
As someone with experience in the wedding industry and specializing in destination weddings through my agency, we also keep a close eye on the foreign market and know the dynamics and costs involved in weddings in many other countries.
We know that compared to a wedding organized in the United Kingdom or the United States, a wedding in Italy allows you to obtain many more things with the same budget.
Being a preferred destination for the destination wedding industry, we can afford to keep costs more contained.
But let’s get into practical matters.
How much does a wedding lunch or dinner cost?
A wedding lunch or dinner in Italy, which includes a large welcome aperitif with Italian specialties, wine, prosecco, a main course, and a second course, costs as much as a lunch in another country where you would have champagne and appetizers and a single dish.
Another thing to consider is that in Italy there are many artisans to whom you can entrust the realization of various wedding details, and this allows you to have an Italian artisanal product at the cost of an industrial product that you would pay for in another country.
How much does it cost to organize a wedding in Italy among natural beauty and art?
In addition to the reduced cost, getting married in Italy also offers the opportunity to celebrate the wedding in one of the most beautiful countries in the world.
With its rich cultural history, breathtaking art, and architecture, Italy offers many incredible wedding venues that will stay in the hearts of your guests.
Whether it’s beaches, mountains, vineyards, or historic cities, Italy has everything foreign brides could wish for.

How much does a wedding cost in Italy? Tips for getting the best services at the best price.
I know very well that this paragraph piques your curiosity… it would also pique mine if I were looking for the same information as you.
How can you get what you want while being mindful of your budget?
Choose Italian Vendors
The first advice I give you is to choose Italian vendors.
I have already talked about this topic several times within this blog, because it is an aspect that I care about and because I am truly convinced that it is the most sensible choice for those who come to get married in Italy from other countries.
An Italian vendor certainly helps you to cut costs, has a deep knowledge of the territory, which will be for you the biggest advantage possible (especially if there are any inconveniences).
An Italian vendor working “at home” can guarantee you high quality standards without additional expenses for shipping goods and people.
Seasonal Products for Your Wedding Menu
Another very sensible thing that I would do if I were you is to choose seasonal and typical products of the place where you are getting married for your wedding menu.
You will have significantly lower costs because everything will already be available there in large quantities. Plus, you will be sure that all the products are fresh and of high quality, and your wedding banquet will certainly be a success.
You will give your guests a truly unique experience both because you will offer them foods that they probably have never eaten before and because they will be delicious (and you won’t have spent a fortune).
Don’t choose a specific flower
Let’s talk about decoration. We all know that a wedding without flowers is not a wedding.
There are things you can do to have the decoration of your dreams while respecting your budget.
Don’t choose a specific flower, instead work with your designer to create a color palette and the architectural structure of the floral decoration.
This way, when the flower designer goes to the flower market to buy flowers for you, they can buy the best available flowers that are perfect for your decoration, without having to purchase a specific flower that may cost more on that day.
The same doesn’t apply to the bride’s bouquet. If you have a specific flower that you really want, you can have your bouquet made with that flower so you won’t have to give up on anything.
Apply the rule for a chic wedding: less is more
The golden rule is “less is more”.
Removing details is a true art, so I suggest that you get help from your wedding planner and/or designer to create a clean decoration that speaks of you and is perfectly designed in the mood that you desire.
Removing unnecessary details means optimizing the budget for what is really important.
This way, your money will be spent on essential things of the highest quality.
How much does a wedding cost in Italy? Less than you think.
As you can see, a wedding in Italy could cost you even less than a wedding in your own country, and you could have not only a wonderful wedding but also a complete experience for you and your guests.
The secret is knowing how to move and being careful with the choices you make.
Having a wedding planner in Italy, for example, will be like being in two places at once.
She will be your eyes in another country, and all the organization will be part of a beautiful and stress-free journey.
