Wedding in the Dolomites

The Dolomites are one of those destinations where you don’t need a built set. The mountains are already there. You have the cliffs and the forests. You have the alpine lakes and green valleys. You have the quiet of a place that makes you slow down.

It is a distinctive choice if you want an intimate, elegant wedding close to nature. You can have a ceremony with the mountains in front of you, dinner in a chalet or at a venue overlooking the peaks, and a few days to enjoy walks, hikes and local gastronomy together.

Because a wedding in the Dolomites is not only a beautiful day. It means time for the two of you and for the people who have come all the way to Italy to be by your side.

The Dolomites are not only the setting for your wedding. They are part of the story.

Mountains and alpine lakes

Cliffs, forests, green valleys and lakes such as Lake Braies create a landscape that needs very little added to it. Nature becomes part of the ceremony, the photographs and every moment shared with the people you love.

Cortina d'Ampezzo

One of the best-known destinations in the Dolomites, surrounded by spectacular peaks. It offers many possibilities for accommodation, dining and experiences, and suits a Wedding Weekend that combines nature with comfort and an elegant atmosphere.

Tre Cime di Lavaredo

Among the most famous formations in the Dolomites, loved for their scenery and hiking trails. You don’t have to turn the wedding into an adventure, but you can include small experiences that represent you.

One of the most important choices is the venue. You shouldn’t only pick the most beautiful view in the photos: a spectacular spot for photographs, like Lake Braies, is not always a place where a ceremony can be held. You must find the place that fits you: the guest count, the budget, the type of ceremony, the time of year and the experience you want to create. For an intimate wedding, it can be lovely to choose a place where you and your guests can stay for a few days.

In the Dolomites you can find:

• Elegant hotels
• Chalets
• Mountain resorts
• Mountain restaurants
• Estates in the heart of nature
• Venues with terraces and mountain views

Civil ceremony

If you want the wedding to be legally recognized in Italy, we can help you understand the steps and documents required. The requirements vary depending on nationality and the local authority, so each case must be checked individually.

Religious ceremony

If it is important for you to be married before God, we can find a suitable church and guide you through the organization.

Symbolic ceremony

If you want a ceremony crafted around your story, a symbolic ceremony gives you the freedom to say things as you feel them. In the Dolomites, the mountains can become part of the moment: a garden, a terrace facing the peaks or a quiet spot in nature.

The Dolomites are one of those destinations where it’s worth not limiting yourself to a single day. More days mean more memories, for you and for your guests.

Pre-wedding

A welcome dinner with your guests, a walk in the mountains, a gastronomic experience or a day in Cortina d'Ampezzo.

Wedding day

Ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, music, dancing and the mountains all around you.

Post-wedding

An easy hike, a trip to an alpine lake, lunch in a mountain refuge or a quiet day simply enjoying the view.

• Easy hikes: beautiful trails, including around Tre Cime di Lavaredo, for you and the guests who love the mountains.
• Alpine lakes: a trip to Lake Braies, with its water, mountains and surrounding forests.
• A day in Cortina d'Ampezzo: walks, restaurants and the elegant atmosphere of one of the best-known destinations in the Dolomites.
• Cable car and lunch at a refuge: views over the peaks and a simple meal with the taste of the mountains.

The period from June to September is the best time for outdoor events and nature experiences. June and early July bring green landscapes, while September can offer pleasant days and a calmer atmosphere. Late autumn and winter change the experience completely and can suit couples who want a winter wedding in the mountains. For any outdoor event we also prepare a plan B for the weather, because the mountains are beautiful precisely because we cannot control them.

There is no single price for a wedding in the Dolomites. The budget depends on many factors: guest count, venue, season, accommodation, catering and drinks, decor and flowers, photo and video, music and entertainment, transport and guest experiences.

We prefer to start from what you want and build a realistic budget for your wedding.

Maybe you dream of a ceremony with the mountains in front of you, an intimate wedding in Cortina d'Ampezzo or a few days in nature with family and friends. Or maybe you still don’t know if the Dolomites are right for you. That’s fine. You don’t need all the answers before we begin.
