WEEKLY SPOTLIGHT: Public or Private Venue: How to Choose the Best Ceremony Setting

Deciding between a public or private wedding venue is one of the key choices when planning a destination wedding, an elopement in Europe, or a vow renewal. Should you exchange your vows in an iconic public spot—such as a panoramic viewpoint, a charming square, or a romantic garden? Or would a private venue offer the intimacy, comfort, and exclusivity you want, especially if you expect 15 guests or more?

To help couples make the right choice, we’ve created a complete guide comparing public and private ceremony locations, covering capacity, logistics, privacy, and budget.

Read the full guide here: A Complete Guide to Choose the Perfect Setting for Your Ceremony.

A CEREMONY TAILOR-MADE FOR YOU

We don’t work with templates of standard wedding ceremonies. We do the opposite: each ceremony is unique and tailor-made to your wishes. In order to achieve that, we take the time to get to know you! It’s only by us listening to you – your values, beliefs, personal history and wishes – that we can shape a ceremony that honors your relationship meaningfully for you and only you. For couples who love a touch of inspiration and creativity, you can even discover which Taylor Swift Era matches your dream European wedding destination here

And having married over 1000 couples, we’ll use our experience and expertise to guide you through all the challenges of planning that perfect destination wedding, micro wedding, elopement or vow renewal from afar.

We had the most wonderful experience with Love Gracefully. Giulia our wedding planner was the most attentive person we could have hoped for. She was so helpful and supportive from beginning to the end and truly did everything in her power to make our perfect day come to light.

Alessandra was simply the most lovely and friendly makeup and hair artist we have ever met. She was incredibly helpful and managed to make me feel like the most beautiful bride on earth.

We would also like to thank Daniele, our celebrant who was amazing and made our ceremony so special. And finally a big thank you to Federica and Alessandro who did an incredible job on photography and videography. We couldn’t have hoped for more beautiful pictures and video. It doesn’t hurt that they were incredibly lovely and friendly as well.

Our elopement in Lake Como was an absolute dream and we could choose Love Gracefully all over again if we had to. Thank you so much! 🇮🇹✨

We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Love Gracefully. Planning an elopement from across the country felt overwhelming at first, but their team made it incredibly easy. They guided us with such care and patience.
Leading up to the wedding, they were responsive, organized, and genuinely excited for us. On the day of our elopement, the team created a calm, joyful atmosphere. They kept everything running smoothly without ever making the day feel rushed. The photographer they paired us with was phenomenal and captured breathtaking shots that we will cherish forever.
What stood out the most was how personal everything felt; they took time to understand who we are as a couple and tailored the experience to us. If you’re considering an elopement, do yourself a favor and hire Love Gracefully. It was truly the best decision we made for our wedding.

We hired Love Gracefully for our elopement in the Amalfi Coast in September 2025. We worked closely with Camilla who provided us with all the information we needed and helped us plan our special day. Communication was great, the location and details were amazing. I’m so grateful for Camilla and Love Gracefully for making our special day one we’ll never forget. It was absolutely worth it and I would 110% do it all again! Thank you so much Camilla. You are amazing!

We had the most incredible experience working with Love Gracefully to plan our elopement in Italy, and we truly could not recommend them more. From the beginning, Giulia was professional, detail-oriented, and so reassuring. She made us feel confident in our decision to elope in Lake Como and kept us updated every step of the way, which made the entire planning process feel effortless.

Their team made our day unforgettable. Daniele was our officiant, and his words were heartfelt and meaningful he truly made the ceremony feel personal and special. Our photographers, Lorenzo and Roberto, were equally amazing. They captured stunning photos and gave us memories we will cherish forever.

Love Gracefully exceeded all our expectations, and we are so grateful for everything they did to make our Lake Como elopement perfect. Highly, highly recommend! 💫💍🇮🇹

Best decision ever!!!! I can’t thank them enough for truly making my wedding dream come to life, it was stress free, communication was great, and they are there for you every step of the way. I always knew I wanted to get married in Italy but I didn’t know anyone from there, I followed them for a while on Instagram and I decided to message them, they were quick to reply and were thorough when explaining everything. They made the wedding experience my actual dream. The whole team was wonderful to work with and they were all so nice. If anyone is wondering to book with them DO IT, you will not regret it!!!!

I stumbled upon Love Gracefully about two years ago when I began looking for a wedding coordinator for our micro wedding in Florence, Italy. From the very beginning, Lorena and Bibiana were absolutely wonderful and guided me through every step of planning our international wedding. Their packages were so reasonable compared to what it would have cost to have the same kind of wedding in California.

They work with the best wedding vendors, and we ended up with the most amazing photographer and videographer. We received our photos and video in less than a month after the wedding, which is unheard of in the U.S.! Our celebrant, Filippo, was fantastic and even gave us a free ride in one of their vintage cars during our walk-through the day before the wedding.

Our wedding day was perfect and truly magical. Every detail was beautifully thought out, and we could not have asked for a more amazing experience. Thank you to Lorena, Bibiana, Francesco Morandini (wedding photographer), Niccolò Isacchini (wedding videographer), and Azzurra (makeup artist) for making our wedding day absolutely perfect!
