WEDDING IN ROME: THE TOP 5 VENDORS IN THE CAPITAL OF ITALY

17th November 2020

Rome, once at the center of the world, is among the most romantic places for those who dream of getting married in a historic city.

Walking through the streets of the Eternal City, one gets the impression that time has stopped: among ruins and ancient monuments, it is like reliving almost three thousand years of history in a now urbanized reality. This contrast between antiquity and modernity makes the capital special: its discordant scenarios transform any wedding in Rome into pure magic.

Getting married in the capital of Italy also means being able to choose to say "I do" on the altar of one of its many churches or even in the Vatican City, seat of the Pope and heart of Catholicism. Right there it is in fact possible to get married in the chapel of the Choir of St. Peter's Basilica, the largest church in the world.

Those who prefer a civil wedding in Rome are spoiled for choice between the red hall of the Campidoglio near the Colosseum and the Roman Forum, the deconsecrated church of the Vignola Mattei complex, the hall of Villa Lais or the locations recognized as municipal houses and which can also host the wedding banquet!

But how to start to plan a wedding in this beautiful city? Don't panic! Today I will guide you in choosing those that I consider the top 5 vendors in Rome as they are close to my style.


1. COLIZZI PHOTOGRAPHERS

Colizzi studio is immortalizing the love of newlyweds since four generations. All the members of the family are the only ones to dedicate themselves to couples who, through an album or a video, want to relive the emotions of their wedding even after many years.

Although it is a historical activity, the photographic style of the Colizzi studio has changed over the years to keep up with the times. The reportage photos have in fact replaced the classic posed photos, giving space to shots that tell the wedding in the most natural way possible.

Colizzi has also thought of those newlyweds who dream of original shots in Rome by night: on a day after the wedding, you can wear your clothes again and pose for a romantic photo shoot in the most magical places of the capital. If you prefer an original shooting with no fear of ruining your clothes, you will be followed for the "Trash the Dress": an unusual photo shoot in nature or even in the sea, obviously on a different day from the wedding!

The shots are post produced and printed in high quality directly by the Colizzi studio. Each album is customized to meet the requests of brides and grooms: from the cover to the selection of photos, every aspect is studied in detail.

By relying on the experience of Colizzi photographers, your wedding will be told in its entirety with the creation of a customized video with a modern and cinematic style. It will also be possible to integrate the drone service, a tribute offered to all couples to get them excited with aerial shots over Rome.


2. MATRIMONIO ANIMATO

To make the entertainment of your wedding in Rome special and unforgettable, Matrimonio Animato will take care of it,

Professionals in the sector for over 15 years, they offer personalized services to satisfy every type of request with dedicated shows, designed for children and adults.

If you are thinking of an unconventional wedding, Matrimonio Animato will be able to help you by offering a selection of artists such as acrobats, jugglers, stilt walkers or tightrope walkers.

Everything can also be enriched with additional and appreciated services including photobooths, games, food and beverage carts to fill possible downtime that sometimes arises during the celebrations.

Matrimonio Animato uses the most innovative technologies to frame your event, including scenographic effects or audio and lighting systems that live up to your expectations.


2. VILLA MIANI

Built in the nineteenth century at the request of the homonymous family of Venetian counts, Villa Miani stands on Monte Mario overlooking the incredible panorama of the capital.

This neoclassical location covers an area of about two thousand square meters and, thanks to its different environments, offers any comfort. Choosing Villa Miani means being able to get married in Rome with a civil ceremony in the large garden, celebrate in one of the sumptuous rooms and dine under the stars at the outdoor patio or on the panoramic terrace. There is certainly no lack of space and more than a thousand people can be accommodated in this beautiful structure. It will be difficult to find another location that can match the grandeur of Villa Miani just a few kilometers from the city center.

But that's not all because even the menu proposals are capable of satisfying every palate. The dishes of the local tradition, those of the international cuisine, as well as the special menus for the most particular requests, will not disappoint your expectations.

Villa Miani is the place of excellence loved by Italian and couples from aboad who choose the capital of Italy for their destination wedding. A location that will transform your wedding in Rome into a romantic dream of love!


4. CALIFORNIA CATERING

Since 1975, the California company has been operating in the catering and banqueting sector without ever disappointing those who choose an exclusive service for their wedding banquet and more.

The proposed culinary formulas are mostly Mediterranean with international influences and are customized for each type of wedding. From meat to fish dishes, from fruit buffets to desserts, the specialties prepared by California Catering are the result of years of experience of its chefs and pastry chefs.
