LGBTQ+ couple sharing a quiet moment in Genoa

Civil Union in Genoa – A Touching Same-Sex Wedding at Palazzo Doria Tursi

A Love Story That Defied Distance

Lorenzo and Piergiulio’s civil union in Genoa was the culmination of a long-distance love story that, after years of travel and patience, finally found its happy home in Liguria. Lorenzo moved to Genoa to be with Piergiulio, and their same-sex wedding in Italy became the perfect celebration of love and unity.

The Ceremony at Palazzo Doria Tursi

The couple chose the stunning Palazzo Doria Tursi, one of Genoa’s most prestigious historic buildings, to say their “yes” in front of close friends and family. Hand in hand, they walked up the palace’s grand staircase, greeted by smiles and heartfelt applause. The ceremony, officiated by a dear friend, told the story of their relationship using Monopoly as a metaphor—complete with a themed tableau de mariage that added a personal and playful touch.

A Celebration of LGBTQ+ Love in Italy

This was not just a gay wedding in Liguria; it was a deeply emotional and joyful celebration of love and resilience. After the official vows, the couple embraced their guests and posed for group photos on the magnificent stairs of the palace—moments filled with laughter, tears, and pure happiness.

Couple Portraits in the Streets of Genoa

While guests moved to Just Peruzzi in Bogliasco for a scenic aperitivo, Lorenzo and Piergiulio took time to enjoy their first moments as a married couple. We explored the charming streets of Genoa together, capturing intimate portraits that reflected their bond and the timeless beauty of the city—a dream for any Genoa wedding photographer.

A Warm Welcome and a Seaside Reception

On the terrace overlooking the sea, the newlyweds were welcomed with soap bubbles, applause, and overwhelming warmth. The civil partnership celebration continued with a relaxed lunch, cheerful group photos, their emotional first dance, and the long-awaited cake cutting.

Sunset Magic by the Sea

To close the day, we took romantic photos by the Ligurian sea at sunset—images that will forever reflect the authenticity and depth of their love. This unforgettable LGBTQ+ wedding in Genoa reminded everyone present of the beauty of choosing love, every single day.
