For a small number of remaining 2026 dates, we are currently offering special rates for Western Alps elopements ✨

Most couples who dream of a mountain elopement in Italy immediately think of the Dolomites.

And while the Dolomites are undeniably beautiful, there is another side of the Italian Alps that often gets overlooked.

A place of glacier viewpoints, alpine lakes, mountain villages, wildflower meadows, and some of the most spectacular scenery in Europe❤️

The Western Alps are where we take couples who want to experience the mountains in a different way.

Not crowded viewpoints.

Not queues for photographs.

Not hundreds of people sharing the same trail.

Just incredible scenery, quiet moments, and the freedom to build a day around what matters most to you❤️

Sunrise above the clouds.
A picnic beside an alpine lake.
A cable car to one of the highest viewpoints in Europe.
A slow walk through mountain villages that most visitors never see.

This is the side of Italy we fell in love with.

And this is exactly why we continue to recommend the Western Alps to couples looking for something a little different.

If you’ve been dreaming of a mountain elopement in Italy, we’d love to help you discover this part of the country✨

Everyone talks about Lake Como.

And while we absolutely understand why, some of the most extraordinary experiences we have helped create in Italy have happened in places most couples have never even heard of ✨

This day took place on Isola del Garda, a private island in the middle of Italy’s largest lake.

A place that somehow still feels like a hidden gem despite looking like something straight out of a movie.

What we loved most wasn’t the villa, the gardens, or even the incredible lake views.

It was the feeling ❤️

The sense of having the place almost entirely to yourselves.

The freedom to slow down.

To wander.

To take everything in without feeling rushed.

Over the years, one thing has become very clear to us:

The most memorable elopements are rarely about choosing the most famous location.

They’re about finding a place that allows you to experience Italy in a way that feels personal ✨

Sometimes that’s Lake Como.

Sometimes it’s Venice at sunrise.

Sometimes it’s a volcanic landscape in Sicily.

And sometimes it’s a private island on Lake Garda that most people have never heard of.

This is why we love introducing couples to places beyond the obvious.

Not because they’re hidden.

But because they often create experiences that are impossible to find anywhere else ❤️

Most people think incredible wedding days happen because everything goes according to plan.

In our experience, the opposite is often true ❤️

Rachel and Jeff’s day started with a civil ceremony in Taormina and ended with dinner by the sea.

In between, there was a first look where Jeff wasn’t allowed to turn around until Rachel reached him, a slow wander through the streets of Taormina, granita at Saretto Bambara 🍧 , a vintage Vespa overlooking Mount Etna, a boat ride that became a lot more adventurous than expected, and sunset tiramisu with one of the most beautiful views in Sicily.

The sea was rough. We all got soaked. The boat couldn’t go nearly as far as planned.

And honestly?

It ended up becoming one of everyone’s favourite memories from the day.

Because the best elopements are rarely about a perfect timeline.

They are about creating space for moments to happen.

A little adventure ✨
A little spontaneity✨
A lot of laughter✨

This is what we love most about planning and photographing elopements in Italy.

Not simply helping couples choose a location, but helping them experience a version of Italy that feels personal, memorable, and completely their own.

A big shout out to the Benni Carol team behind the scenes, and to all the incredible trusted vendors who helped us bring this day to life. Experiences like these are always the result of talented people working together with one shared goal: creating something truly memorable for our couples ❤️

We are incredibly honoured to share that this image from Alexa & Donovan’s Venice elopement has been selected as one of the 2026 Best of the Best Destination Photos by Junebug Weddings ❤️

This photograph was taken early in the morning, during one of those rare moments when Venice still belongs to itself.

Anyone who has visited the city knows how busy it can become. But before sunrise, Venice reveals a different side - quiet canals, empty bridges, soft light on the water, and a sense of stillness that feels almost impossible in one of the world’s most visited destinations.

For us, this image is about exactly that feeling. Two people alone in Venice, experiencing a side of the city that most visitors never get to see.

A huge thank you to Junebug Weddings and the judges for this recognition, and of course to Alexa & Donovan for trusting us to document their incredible day from sunrise to sunset ✨

✨ A real elopement in Val d’Orcia ✨

Quiet roads through the Tuscan countryside.
The most stunning golden light.
A slow day built around Rana & Michael ❤️

No pressure to perform.
No rigid timeline.
Just space to enjoy every moment as it naturally unfolded.

This is one of the reasons we love elopements in Val d’Orcia so much. The landscapes are incredible, but what really makes the experience special is the feeling of freedom the area gives you. You can slow down, move naturally through the day, and truly experience Tuscany instead of rushing through it.

And tomorrow, we’ll be back here again for another beautiful elopement in these hills ❤️

👉 If you’re dreaming of a Tuscany elopement in 2026, we are currently running an offer for the last few dates available and would love to hear your plans ❤️ find all the details in the link in our bio ✨

The Amalfi Coast is one of the most beautiful places in Italy for an elopement ✨

But honestly, it can also become one of the most overwhelming if couples only experience the “Pinterest version” of it.

Crowds,
summer heat,
traffic,
stairs,
tight timelines,
packed villages…

✨the reality of the Amalfi Coast changes massively depending on:

the season,
the timing,
and the locations you choose.

After years photographing and planning elopements across the Amalfi Coast, we’ve learned that the most meaningful experiences usually happen:

early in the morning,
at sunset,
outside the busiest areas,
and with enough space in the timeline to actually enjoy the coast instead of rushing through it ❤️

The Amalfi Coast is incredible — but experiencing it properly makes all the difference.

👉 Save this before planning an Amalfi Coast elopement.

Would you choose:
sunrise peace
or sunset magic? ✨

Not every elopement in Italy needs to happen in the most famous places ✨

Some of the most meaningful experiences we’ve witnessed happened far away from the crowds, in locations couples had never even considered at first.

This day on Lake Orta started before sunrise.

Quiet streets.
An empty lakeside town.
Stormy skies rolling over the mountains.
A final swim in the lake just before the rain arrived.

No packed timeline.
No rushing between locations.
No pressure to recreate a Pinterest version of Italy.

Just space to actually experience the day together❤️

And honestly, this is a huge part of our philosophy when planning elopements in Italy:
sometimes the quieter, less obvious places create the most unforgettable experiences.

Italy is so much bigger than the locations everyone already knows.

👉Save this if you are dreaming of an Italy elopement that feels more personal, atmospheric and off the beaten path.

✨Would you choose:
an iconic location
or somewhere quieter that feels completely your own?
