Getting married on the Amalfi Coast is not only affordable, but also advisable
Getting married on the Amalfi Coast is not only affordable, but also advisable
So where exactly is the Amalfi Coast and what makes it so special? We’re quite sure you won’t miss this vibrant coastline of Italy with its surreal clifftop resorts, century-old hotels, and scenic castles. There is no better way to describe it than a vertical city perched in the middle of glorious mountains and a perfect sea. This, my friends, is what makes the Amalfi Coast wedding venues the most dreamy locations for your ceremony in Italy! This Italian destination spot is located at the Salerno Gulf on the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is divided among thirteen municipalities of southern Italy with people that are as amazing as the views that you can see there. Their creative minds are to blame for turning this steep stretch of land, devoid of any agricultural and rural opportunities, into a unique paradise that it is today. After building hotels, castles, and pastel-colored establishments on the coast, this area fast became a destination spot that now enjoys UNESCO’s recognition as a World Heritage Site.
A wedding is a ceremony where two people are united in marriage. Wedding traditions and customs vary greatly between cultures, ethnic groups, religions, countries, and social classes. Most wedding ceremonies involve an exchange of marriage vows by a couple, presentation of a gift (offering, rings, symbolic item, flowers, money, dress), and a public proclamation of marriage by an authority figure or celebrant. Special wedding garments are often worn, and the ceremony is sometimes followed by a wedding reception. Music, poetry, prayers, or readings from religious texts or literature are also commonly incorporated into the ceremony, as well as superstitious customs originating in Ancient Rome.
The main difference between marrying in a religious or civil ceremony is that a religious ceremony is about being wed in the eyes of God (or whichever deity you believe in), while a civil ceremony is about being wed in the eyes of the law.
Of course, your celebrant, be they civil or religious, must meet all the legal requirements for marrying a couple as set out by the federal government, but if you’re marrying in a church or another place of worship, there are likely a number of rules or conventions (such as either the bride or groom being a member of the faith in question) that must be adhered to, whereas civil ceremonies have fewer restrictions.
Naturally, this is understandable, since it shouldn’t be forgotten that, as beautiful and atmospheric as many churches etc are, the fact is, they are, first and foremost, places of worship. So, the actually marriage ceremony is seen as a sacred, holy ceremony, to which the faith’s customs must apply.
Civil ceremonies, on the other hand, can be just as wonderful and atmospheric but they are not constrained by the rules of any faith, just the law, so there is a lot more scope to move outside rules pertaining to, for example, music or dress.
A symbolic wedding ceremony, also called a humanist ceremony is a meaningful non-religious ceremony performed by a wedding celebrant.
A symbolic wedding ceremony gives you the opportunity to express your personality, your tastes and your values. Because it has no legal value, a symbolic wedding ceremony offers you a lot of flexibility: It can take place pretty much anywhere, mostly outdoor in the beautiful chateau grounds, in your own garden, etc.
As for the content, you can include everything you like, provided it is suitable and in-keeping with the official nature of a traditional wedding ceremony.
A symbolic or humanist wedding ceremony allows you to make a statement if you wish to stray from traditions or, on the contrary, keep some elements of traditions in a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere.
A symbolic wedding ceremony is ideal for couples who: Do not wish to get married in church for a whole variety of reasons (no religious belief, divorced, same-sex couples, etc.) Think that the civil ceremony is too short and too impersonal Wish to get married in Italy but cannot have a civil ceremony as they are not Italian residents Have always dreamed of a romantic outdoor ceremony held in a Italian chateau venues or in their holiday home.
As mentioned above, places of worship are about more than just pretty surroundings and stained glass windows. They are, generally, consecrated and a place where people of that faith congregate to practice their beliefs. As such, few churches, synagogues or mosques etc will allow those who do not share their faith to wed in their house of worship. So, if you have your heart set on marrying in your local cathedral, but are not of that faith, well, the chances of you being allowed to marry there are, well, slim to none.
Similarly, individual houses of worship sometimes have their own rules, as do individual faiths, about who can marry within their walls.
There are no such restrictions with civil ceremonies, so as long as your officiant conforms to the legalities of getting married, most venues – from a garden, the beach or, even, your own back yard – will suffice.
And, if none of them suit, you can always wed at your local marriage registry.
The only thing to remember is that if you are marrying in a public space such as a beach or garden, you may need to first obtain a permit from the local council.
