⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Dream 50th Anniversary Celebration in Venice, Italy

We cannot thank Paola from Love Gracefully enough for helping us plan and execute my parents’ 50th anniversary vow renewal in Venice. From the very beginning, Paola was professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in making this milestone celebration special for our family.

The Rose Garden was the perfect location—beautiful, intimate, and everything we had hoped for. The ceremony was thoughtfully coordinated, allowing us to focus on celebrating my parents and creating lasting memories together.

Paola and her team made sure the photos and videos were absolutely stunning and captured every meaningful moment of the day. Looking back at them, we are reminded why the investment was so worthwhile. These memories will be cherished by our family for years to come.

If you’re considering a vow renewal, anniversary celebration, or destination event in Venice, I highly recommend Love Gracefully. They helped turn a once-in-a-lifetime occasion into an unforgettable experience. Thank you for making my parents’ golden anniversary so beautiful and memorable! ❤️✨

Long overdue review - This team is simply the best at what they do. We were married in Florence of 2025 and can say it was a dream come true. Any concerns with planning a destination wedding for our immediate family were quickly removed when we got together with Bibiana, Lorena, and the team at Love Gracefully. They made the impossible, possible. Thank you!

Our wedding in Florence was magical! We decided less than a month before our trip to get married there. I found Love Gracefully on line and was impressed by the reviews. Bibiana and Lorena were exceptional and helped make sure every little detail was just right for us. We had an intimate ceremony overlooking the city with Fillipo as our officiant and Niccolo as our photographer. I was truly amazed at how everything came together so perfectly in such a short timeframe and can't recommend Love Gracefully highly enough!

We eloped, just the two of us, in Sicily from US. Cristina was our wedding coordinator and she was very helpful and responsive throughout the entire process, answering all of my questions. The photographer (Marco), hair (Carla) & makeup (Jess), and officiant (Cristiana) provided by Love Gracefully could not have been better. They made our day so special, it was everything we wanted.

We had the most amazing experience celebrating our 25 wedding anniversary in Paris and choosing Love Gracefully to help us renew or vows was the best decision we made!! Both Bibiana and Lorena help to make the planning process seamless by being on hand to give advice and answered any questions we had. We only had 3 weeks of planning as it was a “last minute” decision to arrange our special ceremony!!
On the day, the weather was a little damp but it made no difference to us as both Alex our celebrant and Julian our photographer was so welcoming and kind and made our ceremony so so special. We will remember that day forever!! Thank you so much ☺️

My husband and I wanted to get married but not have to stress about a wedding so we thought about eloping. That’s when two of our friends told us about love gracefully and how they eloped with the company in Europe. We saw photos of their special day and thought “we will not look any further. We are going to hire love gracefully for our special day.” And that is what we did. What can I say, we decided to elope in Paris and it was a DREAM COME TRUE! The coordinators, Lorena and Bibiana were excellent. They gave us so much peace from the first meeting and helped us every step of the way. They were extremely responsive and always kept us in the know. We just received our photo gallery and I am in tears of how beautiful our photos came out. We are extremely thankful for the team and can’t wait to hire them again for our vow renewal 😍♥️ If you want to marry the love of your life abroad, look no further and hire love gracefully. THEY WILL NOT DISAPPOINT

We used Love Gracefully for our Lake Como Elopement May 2026 & we can not recommend them enough - from start to finish Eleonora was so attentive & helpful with all queries and organising our perfect day. We had the pleasure of Eleonora (wedding planner & celebrant) & Nicholas (photographer) being a part of our special day - them & the day was perfect start to finish. So thank you to them both! We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day.

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…
