What is the Difference Between a Symbolic Wedding and Official Registration?

A symbolic wedding does not limit your choice of venue or ceremony format – it can be conducted exactly as you wish, without a “stamp in your passport” and without being tied to documents. Couples often choose a symbolic wedding if they want to renew their vows or do not see the point in formalities, while still desiring a memorable celebration in a beautiful, atmospheric setting.

For official marriage registration in Italy, a specific set of documents must be prepared. After the ceremony, you will be officially married and recognized by law as husband and wife, receiving a certificate that must then be presented at the local registry office.

What Documents Are Needed for Official Marriage Registration in Italy?

  • The original Nulla Osta (Nulla Osta al matrimonio) – a certificate confirming that there are no impediments to marriage, issued by the consulate of your country
  • Passports
  • Passports or ID cards of the country of citizenship of the bride and groom
  • Birth certificates

 

If applicable, you must additionally provide scanned copies of:

  • Divorce certificates (according to Italian law, a woman may remarry only 300 days after her divorce is finalized)
  • Certificates of previous marriage
  • Death certificates of a previous spouse (or spouses)
  • Documents regarding a change of surname

What are the Conditions for Conducting the Official Ceremony?

  • The ceremony is conducted in Italian; therefore, an interpreter is mandatory if the bride and groom do not speak Italian (this service is included in our packages)
  • Two witnesses over 18 years old (they can be your parents or friends, or we can provide them upon request)

What Documents Are Needed for a Catholic Wedding?

  • A Nulla Osta certificate in Italian
  • Birth certificates
  • Baptismal certificates (mandatory) / Certificato di battesimo
  • For Catholics — additionally, a certificate of First Communion (Certificato di cresima)
  • If one of the couple belongs to another Christian denomination (Orthodox or Protestant), a written consent for raising future children in the Catholic faith is required
  • A certificate of participation in premarital courses / Attestato di partecipazione al corso prematrimoniale (we can assist with this upon request)
  • Documents for the wedding prepared by the Catholic priest of your parish (based on your residence)
  • Originals of all documents must be ready at least 45 days in advance

What is Required for an Orthodox Wedding?

  • You must be in an officially registered marriage. A certificate of civil marriage (no translation required) must be provided
  • Baptismal certificates
  • 3–4 days before the wedding, you must confess and receive communion
  • It is advisable to observe a fast (three to ten days) before the wedding
