Venice Wedding Venue Guides
Guides to choosing a wedding venue in Venice — palaces, Grand Canal hotels, City halls, churches and island resorts compared.
In short
In brief
Venice wedding venues fall into five groups: the City's civil halls (such as Palazzo Cavalli), Grand Canal hotels, private palazzi and Scuole Grandi, churches, and island resorts. The right one depends on your ceremony type, guest count and budget.
About these guides
These guides compare where to celebrate. The pillar, Venice wedding venues, sets the main options side by side, and the cost guide explains how the venue shapes the budget. Each venue also has its own page, with access, photo notes and nearby spots, in our Venice wedding locations hub — from Palazzo Cavalli to the Gritti Palace and San Clemente Palace.

Frequently asked questions
Can we have the ceremony and dinner in the same Venice venue?
Yes, many hotels and private palazzi host both; civil ceremonies at City venues are usually followed by a dinner elsewhere, reached on foot or by boat.
How many guests can a Venice palace host?
From a handful of guests in a private salon to a few hundred in the largest hotels and Scuole Grandi — capacity is one of the first things to check.
