Amalfi Coast Weddings” How To Do It Legally

Every woman who is engaged finds themselves daydreaming about having a perfect dream wedding. This is a very special occasion that deserves to be celebrated in style. After all, you are tying the knot with the most important person in your life!

What better way to celebrate this very important day of your lives than by having a Amalfi Coast wedding!  This is one of the world’s most romantic places to get married. There is an especially beautiful small town called Positano, which is the perfect place to host your Amalfi Coast wedding.

Positano Commune Amalfi Coast Wedding

Having a Positano wedding would make you feel like you’re living inside a fairytale. Positano is one of the small picturesque towns, strategically built on the cliffs of the Amalfi Coast. It looks as if the mostly white houses adorned with colorful flowers of the region are about to flow out into the ocean. The streets are narrow and filled with local shops, thousand year old churches and quaint romantic restaurants. This place is just so romantic you’d fall in love all over again.

You have two choices of ceremonies in Positano. A spiritual ceremony is where you exchange vows but the marriage needs to be made legal in the US before or after the spiritual ceremony takes place. A spiritual Amalfi Coast wedding is a beautiful way to celebrate your union, but is not legal. A civil ceremony is the type of ceremony where once it’s complete, you will be legally married. All civil ceremonies must take place in the local Positano Town Hall and are often performed by the town’s Mayor.

There are many steps that you will need to follow prior to arriving in Italy in order to make your Amalfi Coast wedding legal. There is no need to hire an Italian Wedding Planner to handle the legal aspect of your Amalfi Coast wedding as long as you know everything that you need, you start planning early and you are organized.

If you desire, you may have a small civil ceremony at the Positano town hall and then have a spiritual ceremony in another destination such as a villa, beach or church. However, I think you would consider the Positano Town Hall to be one of the most beautiful and romantic venues to have a wedding on the Amalfi Coast. The Positano town hall has a large terrace where the stunning views of the sea and cliffs will provide all the backdrop that you will need for your Amalfi Coast wedding.

Also, you don’t have to worry about bad weather since Positano has a lovely and historic indoor hall with windows that open to the panoramic view of the terrace and the sea. However, if you intend to get married on the terrace, you need to book your day early. Most couples choose to have their weddings in this same venue. I would say that this location is one of the most sought after Amalfi Coast wedding destinations.

Another idea that may get you more excited would be having a sunset or moonlit Amalfi Coast wedding.  Imagine having your romantic Amalfi Coast wedding on the Positano Town Hall terrace that could be decorated to suit your specifications. Imagine the terrace elegantly decorated in only the freshest local flowers, accented by lit candles and the stars and moon above. I know that this is definitely possible, but also in high demand so you may want to book early!

There is no more romantic place for your Amalfi Coast wedding than on the terrace of the Positano Town Hall overlooking the sea below.
