Hi! I don't know if this has been suggested before...but how about a European Destination Wedding Folder/Forum. I was married three weeks ago in Rome, Italy and it was such an amazing experience. I would love to share and help out any other brides out there who are thinking of doing the same. Thanks so much! Lili

Hi Becks! Thanks for your offer of assistance. You are SO lucky to have lived in Italy. And in Siena! Oh the wonderful wine you must have drank. I can only dream. Your FI's parent's 50th anniversary must have been so lovely. Let's see...we are planning to stay at Relais Pierret in Piazza di Spagna. We stayed there when we were there last May and just loved it. The hotel overlooks the Spanish Steps, so at night we would leave the windows open to see/hear the guitarists playing music. I didn't mind the sound of the crowds at all. It was just so romantic. One of our activities with our guests is to have everyone meet at the Spanish Steps to have a glass/bottle of Prosecco. Just something memorable that our guests can say they have done in their life...

Thank you all for the wonderful welcome. This site is fabulous! I would love to share my experience and impart any advice for those interested in a wedding in Rome. I will definitely share my post wedding pictures too! Heidi, I can’t believe I found my wedding date twin. Especially because Friday weddings aren’t all that common. But hey! The same rules don’t apply with destination weddings. Hi Twinkletoes! My fiance and I chose Italy because we are both travel junkies and history buffs. So we wanted to get married someplace romantic with tons of history. So Rome fit the bill! Paris was an option, but it seemed that the Italian language was a little less insurmountable than the French language. Jessalyn, out of curiosity, did the champagne before the ceremony help with nerves? hehe.

Hi, I just found this site a few days ago. I can't believe I didn't find it sooner in my internet surfing. But like they say...better late than never. My name is Lili. I will be getting married on Friday, April 4, 2008 in Rome, Italy. Ahhh!! Less than 90 days away before I leave for Italy. I'm so excited!
