Italy offers an extraordinary palette of wedding venues — from fairytale castles and aristocratic villas to coastal hideaways and timeless countryside estates, each with its own soul and story

Concept & Design

Design

The concept is the first creative act — an emotional and aesthetic vision. From there, the design takes shape, translating that vision into forms, textures, colors, and atmospheres

WEDDINGS IN VENICE
Luxury Weddings in Venice Italy
for American Couples

A Timeless City for
a Once-in-a-Lifetime Celebration

Venice is unlike any other city in the world. Floating on water, rich in history, and wrapped in centuries of mystery and elegance, it is a city that speaks directly to the hearts of lovers. For over 30 years, P & J Events has been designing and producing exceptional weddings in Venice for elite American couples.
We are proud to be the only wedding planners in Venice offering fully legal wedding ceremonies hosted in private palaces, gardens, rooftops and luxury hotels. We combine unmatched romance with true legal validity — something symbolic weddings simply cannot offer.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Everything You Need to Know About Planning Your Wedding in Venice in 2025 & 2026

Venice offers magic in every season. Spring and autumn are ideal for their light, mild climate, and romantic atmosphere — particularly from March to June and September to November. But Venice is also enchanting in winter. Unlike many destinations, it maintains its charm year-round: foggy canals, quiet alleys, and candlelit palaces turn the city into a timeless dream. If snow falls, it becomes pure fantasy. Even rainy days have a poetic intensity — as some writers have said, "Venice in the rain touches the soul". Getting married in a Venetian palace during winter can be just as luxurious and emotionally powerful as in peak season. And moving through the canals by boat, no matter the month, is an experience you’ll never forget.

Weddings in Venice typically cost 20–25% more than those in Tuscany or Rome, due to the complexity of transportation and logistics. Deliveries via canals, water taxi coordination, and setup restrictions in historic venues add to the budget.

Average cost ranges per guest (based on 100 guests):
Medium Level – €750 to €1,200
Medium–High Level – €1,400 to €2,200
High / Ultra Luxury – from €2,800 and up
