My wife and I eloped in the French Riviera and working with Jeremie was the best choice we could have made. From the start his communication was clear and reassuring, which made planning from abroad so easy. On the day itself he went above and beyond, helping everything run smoothly and making us feel completely comfortable.

The photos are absolutely stunning and capture both the beauty of the Riviera and the emotions of our day. We are so grateful for his work and can’t recommend him enough to anyone thinking of eloping in the South of France.

We had the most incredible experience working with Ksenija as our wedding planner in Dubrovnik. She was absolutely amazing – nothing was ever too much to ask, and she handled every detail with such professionalism and care. The venue she helped us choose was perfect, and everything on the day went exactly to plan. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better planner and team. We highly recommend Ksenija and this wedding planning company to anyone planning a wedding in Dubrovnik – you will be in the best hands!

Where to even begin with Love Gracefully and their Crete Team, the whole experience went above and beyond our imaginations. From the beginning Gabriella, our coordinator was attentive, creative, made it her mission to provide us with the best experience for our wedding day. She communicated with us throughout the entire process and made sure everything was in order before we arrived in Chania from Canada. We couldn’t ask for a more confident, amazing, and lovely coordinator!

On the day of our ceremony we had a 2 hour tour of the Chania Mountains that was beautiful and we learned so much about the area. Our guide took us to small villages and even took photos of us on the mountain top and beaches. Once we arrived back in town we met the photographer Jack and videographer Michalis, they took us all over the port to get the best photos and videos. They had us laughing the whole time so we were very comfortable and it was such a lovely session!

Lastly, we met at the lighthouse to begin our ceremony and met our celebrant Nicolas, he provided a fun and romantic ceremony that we will never forget. He was so kind and gave us a LOVELY wedding gift! We ended the night at a beautiful restaurant that Gabriella booked for us and enjoyed our wedding cake that she sourced for us!

We could go on and on but-If you are thinking of a micro wedding or eloping, we would 100% recommend Love Gracefully and especially their team in Crete, this experience was the best the both of us could ask for and we’ll never forget it we are just thrilled and are on cloud 9. Thank you again Gabriella, Michalis, Jack, and Nicolas!

Amazing from start to finish. They guided us through everything. It was so relaxing and enjoyable to have this experience. The people of Love Gracefully are what make this truly amazing. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, nor could I ever have planned it! They have the knowledge, professionalism, and patience to help in unmeasurable ways. Camilla, Maria, and Marco were our dream team. Everything they did was more than I could have ever hoped for. The value of the experience was simply priceless with their guidance. If you are on the fence, do it, 100% worth putting your trust in them, they make magic. Truly a dream come true for us! Thank you 🩷

My husband and I are from Costa Rica and dreamed of having an intimate wedding filled with beautiful memories, and Love Gracefully made it a reality. Lorena and Bibiana helped us with every detail; every person on the team (photography, videography, hair and makeup, and flowers) did a fantastic job. It was an incredible experience in Florence. I definitely recommend them.

We had a wonderful Renewal of Vows planned by love gracefully in Brienz, Switzerland! Marie was our coordinator/photographer and she made this dream come true. From the planning up to that day, she communicated with us and respected our perspectives of our dream wedding. Marie was very detailed which we really appreciate. She asked us the theme color, the flowers, the background and everything. It was very well planned and excellently done. Thank you to Marie and her team in Switzerland Veronique (make up), Iseult (officiant) and Loic (video) for making that day the best day of our lives! Thank you for making us so beautiful that day. The make up was light and natural as what we wanted. The ceremony was intimate and personalized and very well presented by our officiant. The photos and video are so perfect that captured our emotions that day. The view in Switzerland was breathtaking and awesome. We are beyond grateful for that was the beautiful moment that we will always treasure in this lifetime.

From the very beginning, Giulia and her wedding planning team at Lake Como demonstrated unmatched professionalism, dedication, and attention to details. They didn’t just meet our expectations—they exceeded them in every way possible.

Giulia was incredibly responsive, often replying to our messages even at 3or 4 AM to keep us in the loop and ensure everything was on track. Her commitment was truly remarkable, and we felt completely supported throughout the entire process.

We had some last-minute wishes, including an additional photoshoot and extra services, and Giulia handled everything so well. She accommodated all our requests with a smile, making sure every little detail was perfect.

The villa Vittoria was stunning, the dinner was delicious, and the entire event was seamlessly organized. Every moment felt magical, and we owe it all to Giulia and her team.

Giulia is simply the best! If you’re planning a wedding at Lake Como, look no further. 5stars are not enough—she deserves 10!

Thank you, Giulia, for making our dream wedding a reality! Highly, highly recommended!

FAQ about eloping in Italy

As we have explained, our Italy elopement ceremonies are purely symbolic, meaning that they have no legal value.Due to burdensome bureaucracy, complicated local laws and challenging translation issues, we suggest that couples have the paperwork done at home and come to Europe to celebrate their love fully in a manner that’s meaningful to them and in a place that’s their idea of inspirational. Our speciality is the celebration of love, but not the paperwork. You can see Pierre explaining this in this video.

Our Italy elopement ceremonies are totally personalised
. They can either be spiritual or not at all. They are designed to meet your beliefs. Any God is welcome as well as an atheist or… In that sense, Love Gracefully is a secular company that embraces all beliefs and all non-beliefs. But our officiants are not priests, nor pastors, nor rabbis.

Would you want a religious ceremony, depending on the city, we could direct you to a local church. It’s very rare as many European priests do not speak English. So, what we recommend is that, if you want a religious ceremony in Europe, to let us, at Love Gracefully, create a spiritual ceremony that will be celebrated in an exquisite outdoor location.

We do understand your concern in the event of rain if you want to elope in Italy. Since we always work outdoors, we have the expertise on what to do in case of rain; we spend a lot of time looking at weather forecasts. And after more than 400 ceremonies, here is what we’ve learned:

  1. It’s an issue to take seriously;
  2. Weather forecasts are not very accurate;
  3. Best to wait 48 hours to 24 hours before D-day to make a final call on what to do;
  4. We have a plan B, protected from the rain, ready to go.
  5. If it rains a little bit we can wait for it to stop
  6. If the weather gets extremely bad and our vendors are available, we are flexible and we can try to move the ceremony to another time or day. Only if vendors and officiant are available.
Pierre Therond the founder reading a text in a boat

That I get to talk about love all day long with couples who want to celebrate their love is a real blessing. I have so much gratitude for the life I have: being of service to couples from all over the world! I cherish creating ceremonies for them that are meaningful, personal and unique. To see the eyes of the couples I marry while they share their vows is an inspiration for hope. I feel that I’m making a difference in a world that, sometimes, doesn’t make much sense…
