Getting Married in Rome

Civil weddings in Rome take place at the Campidoglio, the town hall on the Capitoline Hill, reached by the wide steps of the Cordonata and opening onto the square Michelangelo designed, or in the other historic rooms the city makes available. We book the date, prepare the documents for your nationality, bring the interpreter and, if you need them, the witnesses.

For many couples the paperwork starts in Rome anyway. The Canadian and Australian embassies, the Brazilian consulate for central Italy and the British Embassy for UK citizens who live abroad are all here, and so are the offices many Americans deal with. Getting married in Rome means fewer trips: we book every appointment and come with you.

See the guides for Americans, Canadians, Australians, British citizens and Brazilians.

Rome has two airports, Fiumicino and Ciampino, both well connected to the city. Once you are here, the old town is closed to most cars and the traffic around it is famously slow, so plan your day around short distances.

Taxis exist in Rome, but at busy times you can wait a long while, and they can't always be booked in advance. In Italy the Uber app mostly offers private drivers (NCC), which cost far more than a taxi.

Our advice: stay in the old town near the ceremony and the dinner, and let us book cars or a minibus for the moments when everyone has to move together.
