Your wedding in Salerno

Salerno is a big town on the Tyrrhenian Coast in Campania with a large seaport, boasting a very interesting and characteristic historic centre where you can admire beautiful monuments and buildings, and a breathtaking sea promenade, the famous 'lungomare', the place of the local night 'movida'. This town of Etruscan origins has an important and long history starting from the Roman conquest in 197 BC. In 1077 Robert Guiscard conquered Salerno which became the capital of the Lombard municipality and th castle is a magnificent evidence of this glorious period.

Italy undoubtedly is one of the most desirable destinations for a lovers' escape and for a destination wedding abroad. A romantic getaway in Italy is for many couples a daydream. If you are dreaming of an Italian wedding on the Amalfi Coast, Salerno may be an alternative choice for those who imagine their perfect day in a main town of South Italy by the sea, and not far from enchanting 'Divina Costiera Amafitana'! Salerno is in a very strategic position between two of the most beloved touristic area of Campania: the Amalfi Coast and the Cilento National Park. In fact it is very well connected to Vietri sul Mare, Cetara, Amalfi, Ravello and even Sorrento or Paestum in the National Park of Cilento are easily to be reached.

You can, for example, celebrate your Catholic wedding in the main monument of Salerno, the Cathedral of Saint Matthew (Duomo di San Matteo) a Romanesque building of the XI century dedicated to the Apostle patron saint of Salerno, and where his body, and that of Pope Gregorio VII, are still kept today. Many are the wedding reception venues in Salerno, ideal for outdoor weddings, romantic garden weddings or indoor elegant and/or informal wedding parties.
