Liguria is one of the smallest and most spectacular regions of Italy. Situated in the North-West, it is filled with little, colourful and picturesque towns. It enjoys a mild climate, miles of beautiful coastline, and the proximity of Tuscany     and the French Côte d’Azur. Here you will find fishing villages, sandy beaches, secluded coves, as well as gorgeous parks and villas with stunning views over the sea, to host you and your guests on your magic day. The stylish Portofino, the elegant Santa Margherita and the stunning villages of Cinque Terre are only a few of the popular resorts in this fascinating holiday area.

Portofino

Portofino is a real jewel. One of the most charming harbours in Italy, it is a popular destination among the international jet-set, and a perfect location for a luxurious wedding. Tucked in a little bay surrounded by gentle hills, Portofino lays in a semicircle on the turquoise sea dotted with fishermen’s boats and glamorous yachts. Civil weddings can be celebrated in a 16th century castle overlooking the bay, while religious ceremonies can be held in a little church right behind the harbour.

 S. Margherita Ligure

One of the most popular and elegant towns of the Riviera, Santa Margherita is a pretty resort with exotic palms, nice beaches and beautifully painted palazzi. It enjoys a lively marina and is also close to the famous Cinque Terre and the wealthy Portofino. Civil ceremonies take place in a charming 17th century villa or a 16th century castle overlooking the harbour, whereas Catholic weddings can be celebrated in small baroque churches. Five star hotels and villas are available to hire for elegant receptions and Protestant blessings.
