Questions couples ask about marrying in Rome

Can we get married at the Campidoglio in Rome?
Yes. Roma Capitale holds civil weddings in the Sala Rossa of Palazzo dei Conservatori on Piazza del Campidoglio, looking over the Roman Forum. It seats 20 guests with room for 70 standing, and ceremonies run on Friday, Saturday and Sunday mornings. Book through the Ufficio Matrimoni once your nulla osta and other documents are in order.
Are there other civil wedding rooms in Rome?
Yes. The Complesso Vignola Mattei on Via Valle delle Camene, beside the Baths of Caracalla, seats 25 and holds 50 standing, but it is closed for ceremonies Tuesday to Thursday. The Sala Azzurra by the sea at Ostia takes up to 40 guests. Villa Clodia in Manziana is also licensed for civil ceremonies if you would rather marry where you dine.
How do guests get from the airport into Rome?
By the Leonardo Express, a non-stop train between the station inside Fiumicino airport and Roma Termini, taking about 32 minutes and usually leaving every 15 minutes. It arrives at the far end of Termini, so allow a few minutes to walk to the taxis and the metro. Ciampino, used mostly by European flights, is linked to the city by bus and taxi.
Is Villa Clodia in Rome itself?
No. Villa Clodia sits in Manziana, in the Lazio countryside north-west of Rome. Couples who want Rome's monuments in their photographs spend a day in the city first, then celebrate at the villa. Guests staying in Rome can also come out by train, as the station is a short walk from the villa.
What welcome dinner ideas work at a villa near Rome?
Wood-fired pizza made to order, or an open-fire barbecue, both of which Villa Clodia runs for the night guests arrive. For the wedding itself, the kitchen writes each menu from scratch around Lazio produce and handles vegetarian, vegan and allergy needs, with tastings arranged before the day. Full board is available for wedding groups staying in the villa's 11 rooms.
