LAKE GARDA AS YOU DREAM IT

Looking for the perfect Lake Garda wedding or elopement package?

That is why we have elevated the traditional wedding package into comprehensive Ceremony Design Blueprints. You get the stress-free, all-inclusive feeling you are looking for, combined with the financial transparency of a luxury design firm.

A romantic dream among crystal waters, historic villages, and eternal Verona.

It’s ideal for couples dreaming of an intimate, elegant ceremony surrounded by landscapes that blend natural charm with rich Italian tradition.

LAKE GARDA & VERONA WEDDING

UNMATCHED SCENIC VARIETY

Each lakeside town has a character of its own — its markets, its shops, its cobbled streets. From Sirmione’s thermal poetry to Riva del Garda’s alpine drama, every corner of Lake Garda feels like a timeless postcard, an unforgettable place to say “I do.”

QUICK ANSWERS

A Lake Garda elopement with Love Gracefully starts at €960 for the Basic tier — ceremony, officiant and exclusive lakeside extras (detailed below). Higher tiers add professional photography and videography, a bouquet, hair & makeup, and the iconic private boat or Mercedes tour, at romantic spots like Malcesine Castle, Sirmione’s lakefront or a private balcony in Verona.

Designed together with Giulia, your independent local expert, our 2026 blueprints for a romantic lakefront or castle elopement:

Lake Garda Tier Price Key Services
Basic €960 Tailor-made ceremony, English officiant, symbolic certificate.
Silver €1,610 Basic + 1h professional photography & bridal bouquet.
Gold €2,620 Silver + 3h photo & 1h boat ride or Mercedes car tour.
Diamond €4,170 Gold + 3h videography & professional hair/makeup.
Infinity €6,600 Private castle space, 4h photo/video + drone, boat tour, beauty team.

*Note: All prices include VAT and no hidden fees. Prices may vary based on travel distance.

Most couples choose Gold or Diamond for the iconic boat experience on the lake.

If the weather is bad, we will assess different options together. If all vendors and you are available, we can change the day or time of the ceremony. If rescheduling is not possible or the weather doesn’t allow it, each location has a backup plan, and we provide beautiful transparent umbrellas for the ceremony and photos.

We will ask you to send us photos of what you want, and our florist will try to create it as closely as possible using the flowers available during that period. The classic bouquet is included, and any special shapes (e.g., cascading) will incur an additional cost.

Not in included locations – we provide music through a speaker. Live music only allowed at private locations, with costs depending on instrument type and duration.

Not included, but we can arrange it based on distance and number of people. Taxis and Ubers are hard to find around Lake Garda – we always suggest renting a car.

Certainly — you can bring as many guests as you wish to celebrate your Lake Garda wedding. In the included locations, the maximum is 15 guests (20 for the Infinity package) due to space, and they’ll need to stand during the ceremony. For more guests, we suggest renting a private location, which carries an additional rental charge; managing more than 15 guests involves an extra fee.

LAKE GARDA & VERONA WEDDING: A ROMANTIC AND DIFFERENT ADVENTURE

Verona’s Timeless Romance and Lake Garda’s Authentic Charm

Just a short drive from Lake Garda’s eastern shore, Verona is the eternal city of Romeo and Juliet — celebrated by Shakespeare, rich in culture and history. From Juliet’s balcony to the Roman Arena and its elegant piazzas, romance is everywhere. Whether you picture a symbolic photo shoot in the city or a quiet elopement in Verona, it’s the perfect complement to Lake Garda’s relaxed, authentic atmosphere.

HOW TO PLAN YOUR WEDDING OR VOW RENEWAL ON LAKE GARDA?

Whether you want a big destination wedding, an intimate Lake Garda elopement, or a surprise vow renewal, we’ll organise the ceremony you’ve always envisioned.

We created these packages to make the first steps easier — but they’re fully customisable. No boring, repetitive templates.

1-CHECK AVAILABILITY

Reach us through our contact form here. Wherever you’re planning from — New York, London, Toronto or Sydney — tell us your preferred dates and vision for Lake Garda or Verona. We’ll confirm availability quickly and guide you through our lakeside locations, from medieval castles to lemon groves.

2-CHOOSE YOUR DESIGN BLUEPRINT

Choose the consulting package that resonates with you — all our Lake Garda & Verona offers are fully customisable. From intimate elopements in Sirmione to luxury Infinity ceremonies in private castle spaces, ask as many questions as you like: we make overseas planning effortless.

3-SECURE YOUR DESIGN & VENDOR TEAM

Once you’re satisfied that we’ve answered all your questions, you pay a deposit for our consulting services to secure the Love Gracefully brand for your wedding. Once booked, we start designing your event, which will be produced by the independent local experts who will execute your vision. From there, Giulia and your local team handles all the logistics — and only stops once your Lake Garda celebration is exactly as you dreamed it.

OUR MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FOR LAKE GARDA CEREMONIES

more general questions here

 

We don’t offer that service in our packages. As you’ll see across our website, our ceremonies are purely symbolic, with no legal value — and there’s a good reason. When non-Italian couples realise what a legal marriage in Italy involves, about 99% back off. It’s possible, but complex, costly and lengthy.

Complex, because you deal with two administrations: the Italian one and your own country’s (through your embassy — or both embassies if you’re from different countries). The paperwork on both sides is endless, and all of it must be translated into Italian.

That drives the cost: the process needs a fixer who also acts as translator, both for the paperwork and during the ceremony to translate the mayor’s words — extra fees on top of the administration costs, the city-hall rental, and so on.

And it’s slow: none of these administrations work together, so no one commits to a firm date. Count three months minimum to be safe, and plenty of patience.

That’s why we always suggest doing the paperwork at home, in your own language, with your own administration, then coming to Italy simply to celebrate your love symbolically. If you’d still like to marry legally in Italy, it’s possible — we outsource a trusted fixer. Just ask and we’ll put you in touch. Her fees and the administration fees depend on the city, so we can’t quote them in advance; they’re not included in our package price.

Certainly, our officiant can personalize the ceremony with Catholic content, but please note that they are not a priest. If you prefer a church ceremony, it is only possible in an Anglican church, where we can still make the ceremony as Catholic as possible. Please remember that only Anglican priests are authorized to officiate outside of a church.

The payment is divided into 3 installments (4 for the Infinity package). The first payment is a deposit to confirm your interest in our services. The second payment is requested after we send you the ceremony script for revision and the provisional timeline. These two payments are required via credit card. The final payment will be due on the wedding day in cash.

Normally, three hours are enough. They cover the ceremony, the celebrations, couple photos, photos with guests (if present), and the boat tour. If you’d like preparation photos or photos at other locations, extra hours can be added to the package.

We do not have a predefined package, as the price depends on the type of flowers you want, their seasonality, and the type of decoration you choose. We usually ask you to send reference photos, and we will request a quote for you.

You can add a wedding cake only if a lunch or dinner is planned at a restaurant, or with a private chef in your apartment.

Certainly — the ceremony text is fully customisable. After confirmation, we’ll send you a questionnaire, and your answers help us write your ceremony script.

We prefer to continue via email, so we have a record of all the information we exchange. However, if you feel the need or would like to have a Zoom call to discuss details, we’re more than happy to accommodate.

Before the event, we will ask you to send us reference photos of how you would like your makeup and hairstyle.

The getting ready will take place directly at your accommodation (hotel, Airbnb, or other lodging).

We have various types of boats, motorboat or venetian boat, depending on the ceremony location and availability. The photographer or videographer will board the boat to capture these wonderful moments on Lake Garda.

Yes, it is possible. The organization and costs depend on whether you want a private reception at an exclusive location or if you’re happy for us to recommend a good restaurant nearby (with other diners). If you’d like our help with the booking, an additional fee will apply.

Certainly, once we finalize the ceremony location, we’ll be happy to recommend nearby accommodations around Lake Garda.

WHERE CAN YOU GET MARRIED IN LAKE GARDA?

LAKE GARDA & VERONA AS YOU DREAM IT

Ready to book a Lake Garda & Verona wedding consulting package? We’ll help you find the perfect ceremony spot. After more than a decade organising weddings and elopements in Italy, we’ve curated the best spots to honour your special day.

  • Isola del Garda, the lake’s largest island, is crowned by the neo-Gothic Villa Borghese Cavazza and its terraced Italian gardens — an exclusive, private venue reached only by boat;
  • Sirmione, with its thermal waters, Scaliger Castle, and Roman ruins, is pure poetry;
  • Malcesine, nestled at the foot of Monte Baldo, enchants with its medieval castle and narrow cobblestone streets — see this micro wedding at Malcesine castle;
  • Limone sul Garda offers breathtaking views surrounded by ancient lemon groves and scenic terraces;
  • Gardone Riviera is perfect for those seeking elegance and peace, with its art nouveau villas and lush botanical gardens;
  • Riva del Garda, with its alpine charm, is ideal for couples who love authenticity and dramatic backdrops.

Reaching a venue like Isola del Garda by private boat — sometimes alongside the sails of a vintage schooner — makes the journey across the water part of the day itself. A stunning backdrop is the easy part. The rest is what only experienced local coordinators think of: access, a backup plan for rain, and quiet spots away from the crowds.

Type of ceremony:

Sorry, we don't do legal civil ceremonies in Europe, BUT this actually works in your favor - you'll avoid all the foreign paperwork, embassy visits, translator fees, and bureaucratic stress that comes with overseas legal civil ceremonies. Instead, you can handle the simple legal part at home in your own language and culture, then come celebrate with us in Europe where you can focus entirely on the romance and joy of your special day without any administrative headaches.

However, would you really want a civil ceremony in Europe, we can offer this service in the UK, Portugal or Crete (Greece). Please write to these destinations and ask for the conditions.

Please consider our tailor made Symbolic ceremony and choose it !

Sorry, we don't perform traditional religious ceremonies, BUT our secular, tailor-made approach actually creates more space for your authentic beliefs. Whether you're deeply spiritual, mildly religious, completely secular, or a mix of different faiths, we welcome the God of your understanding, your personal spiritual practices, and your unique beliefs into your ceremony. Our inclusive approach means no one's faith is excluded, no denominational requirements limit your choices, and couples with different belief systems can celebrate together authentically without compromise.

Please consider our tailor made Symbolic ceremony and choose it !

We are committed to protect your privacy. Any information you choose to share with us will always remain strictly confidential. We will never share any of your personal information, including email address, with outside parties without your explicit and written consent.
