Elopement package “Sacred Syracuse” starting from €4400 for 2024 yrs.

Included in €4400:                        

♥ Venue for a symbolic ceremony in exclusive use for half a day: a terrace with double panoramic views in the heart of Syracuse, directly opposite the Cathedral, famous for its Baroque style and ancient history, starting with the Greek Temple of Athena (480 BC) rebuilt in a Byzantine church, then used as an Arab mosque, then, thanks to the Normans, returned to the fold of Catholicism as the Church of the Virgin Mary. The Cathedral of the Virgin Mary in Syracuse is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. The terrace offers an unreal view of the sea, where sunsets are especially amazing. There is a small rain shelter and a plan B option. The terrace is located in a historical building in where the famous Malena loved to sit over a cup of coffee from the Tornatore film of the same name. In 2021 this terrace was rented by Madonna for a family event. Any type of event for up to 50-80 guests is also possible on this terrace.

♥ 4 hours of photography with a local English-speaking photographer to choose from. Photography time can be divided between bride and groom preparations, a wedding photo session in the historical center of Ortigia, on the rocky beach of Plemmirio or on the grounds of Maniace Castle (entrance not included in the price), the ceremony itself (20-30 min). If you increase the photo session time to 5-6 hours, you can include an intimate dinner with a private chef on the same terrace – this is a possible scenario for your unforgettable wedding day!

♥ Wedding hairstyle and makeup with a local English-speaking stylist at the bride’s place (in Syracuse or nearby).

♥ Personalized ceremony with a choice of the unity sand ritual, unity candles (fire), rose or wine ritual, or with no ritual. English-speaking master of ceremonies included. A ceremony with the addition of the Italian language is also possible.

♥ Bridal bouquet (seasonal flowers, roses, astromerias, lisianthus, gypsophila, astilbe, eucalyptus and other greenery). The specific type of flowers is discussed individually depending on the season and the couple’s wishes. The set includes a boutonniere for the groom in the style of the bride’s bouquet.

♥ Terrace decor for a day or night ceremony to choose from different styles (Sicilian style with Sicilian white ceramics and flowers, boho, rustic, eco, night wedding with candles and lanterns, classic with a white veil and flowers). Seasonal fresh flowers are included in medium quantities (like 2 medium arrangements on the arch). Various shaped arches or pillars are included. See the photo below for examples.

♥ Development of a sketch design for ceremony decor.

♥ 2 Bose wireless speakers for 3D sound, selection of music for the ceremony.

♥ Organization, timing and coordination of the entire wedding day.

♥ A small gift for a couple, a Sicilian symbol of fertility and prosperity.

The terrace can accommodate several guests in addition to the couple, so you can arrange an intimate micro or mini-wedding here with your dearest ones. The above-mentioned price is valid only for ceremonies up to 10 people.
