Getting married in Calabria.

There isn't one Calabria. There are five — each calling for a different wedding.

The Sila with its high plateaus and stone villages, the Ionian Coast of Magna Graecia and the Arbëreshë towns, the Tyrrhenian of Tropea and Pizzo, the steep Aspromonte, the Catanzaro area where the region narrows between two seas.

This guide tells each one in turn: what it offers for a wedding, the villages of the diaspora, when to marry there.

La Sila
01
The high plateau, villages of stone

La Sila

The Calabria few know: plateaus at 1,200 meters, beech forests, Norman parishes, villages unchanged in two centuries.

The Ionian Coast
02
Magna Graecia and Arbëreshë villages

The Ionian Coast

The long coast of Magna Graecia, the Albanian villages of five centuries ago, the white cliffs. A literary Calabria.

The Tyrrhenian Coast
03
Tropea, Pizzo, Capo Vaticano

The Tyrrhenian Coast

The famous side: white cliffs, turquoise sea, balcony towns. The Calabria of honeymoons, become Calabria of weddings.

Aspromonte
04
Steep villages, deep roots

Aspromonte

The extreme Calabria. Villages perched at 700 meters, millennial olives, communities still speaking the Greek of Calabria.

Catanzaro
05
Where the region narrows between two seas

Catanzaro

The narrowest point of Italy: thirty kilometers between Ionian and Tyrrhenian, Catanzaro suspended at the center.
