Tivoli is a small medieval town located 30 km east of Rome. This place is remarkable for its history and architecture. Here, you will find two UNESCO World Heritage Sites representing two great historical eras – Antiquity and the Renaissance. And the town itself is even older than its neighbor, Rome.

The magnificent historical architecture, luxurious nature, numerous waterfalls, and grottos concentrated in a small area, along with the low number of visitors, place Tivoli at the top of the list of locations recommended for organizing a wedding ceremony in Italy.

Venues for a Symbolic Wedding in Tivoli

Villa d’Este / Villa d’Este

The famous 16th-century Italian villa, which comprises a palace and an adjoining garden, is a masterpiece of the Italian Renaissance. The villa’s main treasures are its fountains. The water flows into them directly from the Aniene River through a 600-meter underground channel. The villa—with its fountains, grottos, and sculptures—is so magnificent that it became the model for park art throughout Europe. It is considered the progenitor of both Versailles and Peterhof. Today, the treasures of Villa d’Este provide an ideal backdrop for your wedding in Italy.

Villa Adriana in Tivoli / Villa Adriana

Villa Adriana, like Villa d’Este, is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is located at the foot of the Tiburtine Hills near Tivoli.

Built between 117 and 138 AD as a “retreat” for Emperor Hadrian, where he could escape the hustle and bustle of Rome, the villa was designed as an ideal mini-city complete with a palace, theater, library, baths, fountains, and an artificial lake decorated in the Greek style with Caryatids. If you prefer the classic perfection of antiquity, this place will provide a beautiful backdrop for your emotions.

Villa Gregoriana in Tivoli / Villa Gregoriana

Villa Gregoriana in Tivoli is a picturesque park with winding paths, carved within a vast canyon covered with diverse greenery, numerous rocky outcrops with tunnels, steep trails, and an endless number of waterfalls, grottos, and viewpoints. Nearby, a bridge now connects the park to the old center of Tivoli. From the bridge, you can enjoy a wonderful view of the Aniene Valley and an ancient temple. Villa Gregoriana is the union of human genius with the brilliance of nature.
