Wedding Italy

Thinking of marrying in Italy? A truly romantic, lifetime experience, with so many beautiful locations to choose from in this country of incomparable beauty. Romantic wedding destinations in Italy such as the Lake Districts Garda, Como and Maggiore, Venice, Tuscany and Rome are favoured choices. Whether you are planning a Civil, Symbolic, Protestant or Catholic ceremony my commitment is to oversee all aspects of legal documentation requirements, translation and communication, relieving much of the stress and worry that a wedding overseas can create.

Legal Requirements for British National getting married in Italy
British Nationals getting married in Italy must obtain a Nulla Osta from the appropriate regional British Consulate in Italy. To obtain a Nulla Osta you must do the following(assuming both parties are British Nationals and reside in the UK).

You must give notice of Marriage to a UK Superintending Registrar. After 23 days of the publications of banns, the registry office releases a document called a "Certificate of No Impediment" this document must be presented to the appropriate regional Consular office in Italy, along with the following documents:

• Full birth certificate (showing parents names)
• Passport (copy of passport if you are applying from outside Italy)
• Certificate of No Impediment (when notice of marriage given in UK)
• Consent of parent or guardian when under the age of 18
• Evidence of termination of any previous marriage of both parties, if applicable, (i.e. death certificate or divorce decree absolute) together with the previous marriage certificate. Under Italian law a female who has been divorced and wishes to re-marry in Italy cannot re-marry until 300 days have passed from the date of her divorce. It is possible, however, to apply for a dispensation to this through the ‘Tribunale Civile’. Further information should be obtained from the ‘Ufficio Matrimonio’ of the ‘Anagrafe’ (Town Hall) of the area where the marriage is to take place.
• In cases where the name on the birth certificate differs from the one on the passport (except following marriage), deed-poll showing change of name.

There is a consular fee for the production of a Nulla Osta and marriage documents, this fee can vary if other paperwork requirements are involved but it is generally around 58 euros per certificate.

After the Consulate has inspected the paperwork they will issue the Nulla Osta. This must then be presented to the comune (registry office) where the marriage will take place.

*Where only one party to the marriage is a British national, the other would be required if not Italian, to produce to the Italian authorities a Certificate of no impediment from his or her own Consular authority or, if Italian, to observe the formalities required by Italian law for the marriage of two Italian citizens. In this case, information should be obtained from the Town Hall where the marriage is to take place. The consulate also has fees for producing the Nulla Osta and marriage documents. Please inquire for precise details.
