How it works
Enter the number of guests, the Italian region, the type of ceremony and the level of service you want to get an estimate of your wedding budget based on cost ranges for the Italian market. The calculator is built for weddings held in Italy, including destination weddings, and uses separate cost ranges for the main Italian regions.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a wedding in Italy cost?
It depends mainly on the region, the number of guests and the venue: prices are generally higher in the North (Milan, Turin) than in Central and Southern Italy, and historic villas or exclusive venues can push the total up considerably. The calculator gives you an estimate for your own combination.
How can I save on a wedding without cutting quality?
The most effective strategies are: choosing a weekday date (venues and suppliers often charge less than at weekends), a lunch instead of a dinner, fewer guests, seasonal flowers and local suppliers instead of national brands.
What is the average cost per guest for a wedding in Italy?
The cost per guest (reception included) changes a lot between a simple reception, a mid-range wedding and a luxury wedding, and catering is usually the largest single item in the budget. Enter your details in the calculator to get an estimate per guest and in total.
