Getting married in Verona
Getting Married at Casa di Giulietta
Civil weddings, symbolic promises and renewals of vows — all arranged through the Comune di Verona’s official Sposami a Verona programme.
Can I get married at Casa di Giulietta?
Yes. Weddings at Casa di Giulietta are arranged through the Comune di Verona's official Sposami a Verona programme. At the Juliet sites, there are two main options: a legal civil marriage or civil union, held in the Sala Capuleti of Juliet's House, and a symbolic Promise on the Balcony (Promessa al balcone) on Juliet's Balcony itself. The programme also includes other symbolic ceremonies, such as a promise of love, a renewal of wedding vows or a blessing, and may allow ceremonies at other Verona venues as well.
What is the best way to arrange a marriage at Casa di Giulietta?
The best first step is to contact the Comune di Verona Wedding Office directly. Ceremonies can usually be booked up to one year in advance, and the city's online booking calendar may show limited availability, especially around schedule changes and high-demand dates. The Wedding Office can confirm current availability, dates, requirements and document rules.

Do you have to be Italian to get married at Casa di Giulietta?
No. Both Italian and foreign citizens can apply. For a legal wedding, foreign couples must usually present a Nulla Osta — a no-impediment declaration issued by their own country's authorities or consulate. Couples who are not resident in Italy may also need to sign a declaration of no impediment at the Marriage Office by appointment and submit the Nulla Osta at least 10 days before the ceremony date. You will also need two witnesses and an interpreter if either partner does not speak Italian. Start well in advance and confirm the exact document list with both the Wedding Office and your consulate.
What is the difference between a wedding and a Promise on the Balcony?
A civil marriage or civil union is a legally binding ceremony, held in the Sala Capuleti of Juliet's House. The Promise on the Balcony is symbolic only — it gives a couple exclusive use of Juliet's Balcony to declare their love, propose or exchange a ring, but it is not a legal marriage and does not involve the same legal paperwork as a civil ceremony. For official details about Sposami a Verona, contact the Comune di Verona Wedding Office.
How do I arrange it?

A further municipal contact address is statocivile.informazioni@comune.verona.it. Casa di Giulietta, specifically the Sala Capuleti, is listed by the Comune among the municipal venues for civil ceremonies, but availability and requirements can change. Always check the latest official Comune di Verona information before making plans.
