BEFORE YOU BOOK

wedding venue in Veneto

A venue can look perfect in photos and still be the wrong choice once you’re planning from another country. Access, permits, weather plans, noise rules, vendor restrictions and guest logistics are rarely on the website, and by the time you notice them, you’ve already paid a deposit.
We wrote this guide so you can ask the right questions before you book, and know which answers are good news and which ones deserve a second look.
WHAT’S INSIDE
✔ The decision checklist. One clear checklist of the questions to ask every venue, ready to print or take with you on a visit.
✔ Yay! or Watch out! For each question, what a good answer sounds like, what’s a red flag, and what’s simply fixable.
✔ Local Planners’ Notes. What we’ve learned from weddings here, in our own words and based on real experience.
✔ The reasoning behind each question. Why it matters, so you can adapt it to your own wedding.
Plus, in your inbox:
3 short emails over the following days, with the questions that change by area (Lake Garda, Prosecco Hills and more), a story from the field, and how we’d approach your venue shortlist.
Who it’s for
This guide is for you if you’re planning a destination wedding in Italy, you’re comparing venues from abroad, and you want to feel in control of the decision. It’s probably not for you if you’ve already signed a venue contract and need help with the details of the day.
Why trust us
We’re Elisa & Giulia, two destination wedding planners based in Veneto. We design and plan weddings for couples from abroad, so these questions come from our own work, not from a generic list.
“From the first contact to the end (and even after), all was perfect: selection of the suppliers, advice, experiences, …and most importantly, the trusty relationship.
We can only highly recommend Elisa and Giulia…if you plan to get married in the Veneto area, you must call those girls! They will turn a dream into a most unbelievable memory.”

Will you try to sell me something? We’ll tell you how we work and you’re welcome to contact us, but the guide is useful on its own.
