Civil Weddings in
Italy
Each town in Italy
interprets the national marriage laws differently.
Most towns in Italy insist on the wedding being in the town hall
or a Catholic church. In this
region, the mayors will
perform outdoor ceremonies. For most of our towns,
this outdoor ceremony must be preceded (hours or days) with a
visit to the town hall to sign official paperwork (to take and
sign the oath). Only the bride & groom with a Slow Dreams
representative go to the town-hall. This process is very brief
and is conducted in Italian.
We have one mayor,
however, that will perform the outdoor ceremony first then he
escorts the bride & groom back to the town-hall for the signing
of the paperwork.
EU citizens are issued
an EU marriage certificate of marriage (in five different
languages), while all others are issued a standard Italian
marriage certificate. Both type of marriage certificates
are valid world-wide.
