Italy is a hit for celebrity weddings

Italy has always been one of the most popular destinations for a romantic wedding in Europe,  and wedding planners are bound to see a surge in enquiries following the announcement of yet another celebrity wedding there.

Italy is among the top destinations for weddings abroad for many reasons:  it’s strong religious history adds an extra aura of sanctity to a religious ceremony,  while the scenery and architecture are breathtakingly beautiful backdrops for any wedding.   Notorious for being a nation of passionate people,  Italy also has a softer, more romantic side which has fuelled art and poetry for centuries.

The latest Hollywood couple to head to Italy for their nuptials are actress Mina Suvari and concert promoter Simone Sestito.   The couple revealed that they will be combining a trip to promote Mina’s latest movie at the Rome Film Festival with some serious church-hunting.

While other celebrity couples have chosen Italy because of it’s straightforward laws allowing foreigners to marry legally,  this won´t be a factor for Italian-born Sestito.

Will this Hollywood marriage last longer than most?  Who knows,  but one thing is for sure,  the wedding photographs will be beautiful.
