Symbolic ceremony
Symbolic Wedding Ceremony in Italy
A symbolic wedding ceremony in Italy is the perfect solution for those who prefer not to worry about completing documents for a civil or religious ceremony.
It has no legal binding giving you the freedom to personalize the ceremony reflecting your own values and beliefs.
A symbolic ceremony is the ideal way to convey the sentiments and words you hold deep in your hearts.
By its personal and unique nature, each ceremony is tailored to suit you the happy couple and can be as traditional or relaxed as you wish.
The beauty of such a ceremony is that it can be performed in a wide range of spectacular settings.A spectacular castle, a medieval courtyard, a lush green vineyard, a romantic Italian garden, historical villas or on a sandy beach.
I strongly believe that if you opt for a symbolic ceremony, it is much better to have a professional celebrant rather than your wedding planner or a friend which is why we count our blessings having found our two amazing symbolic ceremony officials - Giuseppe and Diane. They are professional celebrants with a strong professional ethos, with originality, empathy and discretion being their strong points.
Giuseppe is Italian with an excellent command of English having lived for many years in London.
Giuseppe is highly sought after to perform religious and inter-faith ceremonies thanks to his theological training at the Vatican.
Dianne ,also a fully registered and professional Wedding Celebrant , is an English Literature graduate who has lived in Italy for many years.
She will compose a bespoke script for your ceremony and can also complement this with expert recitations of some of the most beautiful poetry and moving readings of the English language.
Giuseppe and Diane often work together as joint celebrants or individually as you wish.
Together they are leading religious, interfaith, multi-faith and non-denominational wedding officiants ,known for their warm, loving and creative approach to couples of all backgrounds, religions and beliefs and for guiding them on their journey to the altar and beyond.
They offer a personalized service constructed in close dialogue with you and reflecting your personalities and wishes.
They will compose a history of your lives together to entertain and inform your guests, including information concerning how and when you first met and the journey as a couple that has led you to celebrate your special day in front of family and friends.
The ceremonies they perform can be either religious/spiritual or of a non-religious nature, whatever you decide, you are free to choose as many or as few readings and poems from a wide choice or make your own suggestions.
They will also provide you with a selection of appropriate vows or you can compose your own to make your special day truly unique.
To celebrate the event you will also receive a signed certificate as a special reminder of your vows to each other.
Include your family and friends as active witnesses by having them recite poetry or readings which have a special significance for you both.
If you have gifted singers or musicians as guests then why not have them perform a special song or piece of music just for you ?
The most rewarding satisfaction is to be able to share the couple’s delight and happiness on their special day.
Our happy couples have been blown away by their moving and deeply personal services and will be happy to recommend them to you.
Giuseppe and Diane are often copied but never beaten. Simply the best.
Many of our couples have had their legal civil wedding the day before in the local town hall with just a few close family members present and then followed this with their symbolic ceremony the day after in their chosen venue.
I must admit that our symbolic ceremonies have been some of the most moving events ever.
Our symbolic celebrants also provide a lovely touch for a vow renewal ceremony ,for anniversaries and for milestone birthdays.
