Getting married in spring: three months, three atmospheres, endless possibilities
Spring is the season when nature comes back to life. The days grow longer, the air becomes softer, and the light takes on a new intensity. Each month has its own distinct personality, inspiring couples and bringing out the creativity of wedding designers. March reveals the understated charm of nature’s first awakening, April brings a joyful sense of vitality, while May celebrates the full explosion of colour and fragrance. It is no surprise, then, that spring weddings are so popular, with many couples choosing to book well in advance to secure the date of their dreams.
But is it really necessary to wait until 2028?
Here is a little secret: Antiche Scuderie Odescalchi still has a limited number of dates available for spring 2027. An opportunity not to be missed for couples dreaming of saying “I do” without having to postpone the long-awaited moment. And there is more: special offers are available for weddings taking place in March or April, making these two months particularly appealing. It is the perfect opportunity to experience all the magic of spring in an exceptional setting and turn the idea of a wedding surrounded by nature into a truly memorable celebration.
March: nature in bloom
March has a special charm, marked by transformation and renewal. It is the month of the first blossoms and new beginnings. Choosing this time of year for a wedding means embracing an elegant and intimate atmosphere, perfect for delicate colour palettes, refined details and light, airy floral arrangements. Décor can echo nature’s awakening through ethereal fabrics, fresh shades of green and pastel palettes, complemented by flowers such as ranunculus, anemones, tulips and daffodils. Lighting can take on a soft and enveloping quality, with candles and lanterns enhancing tables and intimate lounge areas, while delicate strings of lights highlight the architecture of the venue.
With the first mild days of the season, parts of the celebration – including an authentic civil ceremony on site – can take place outdoors. And should rain make an appearance, there is no need to worry: the entire event can easily move indoors, into the spacious rooms with their beautiful fireplaces, preserving the atmosphere and elegance of the celebration even on the most unpredictable spring days.
April: harmony and balance
April perhaps embodies the most balanced expression of spring. It is an exceptionally versatile month, allowing couples to envision a sophisticated celebration with a contemporary or natural-chic aesthetic, while their personality and the character of the venue shape the final result.
Bright spring light enhances every detail, from all-white décor to soft pastel shades such as blush pink, dusty rose and sage green, beautifully combined with more vibrant tones of coral, vivid yellow and intense lilac. The season also invites couples to make the most of the outdoor spaces, perhaps with an aperitif surrounded by greenery or a ceremony set against a bucolic backdrop, allowing the landscape itself to become an integral part of the celebration. Dining and convivial moments can flow effortlessly between indoor and outdoor spaces, creating a dynamic and ever-changing reception.
May: an explosion of colour
In May, the landscape takes on rich emerald tones and flowers become the undisputed stars of the season, enhancing the joyful spirit of the celebration. Luxury weddings can feature spectacular floral installations and generous blooms such as roses, hydrangeas and peonies. For shabby-chic, rustic-chic or minimalist celebrations, aromatic herbs, lavender, daisies and chamomile flowers can be paired with natural fabrics and reclaimed materials, creating a relaxed yet sophisticated aesthetic.
The culinary experience can also draw inspiration from the richness of the season. Menus celebrate fresh, fragrant ingredients such as asparagus, peas and strawberries, transforming them into light and flavourful dishes. From aperitif to dessert, the cuisine can capture the essence of spring through delicate combinations and locally sourced ingredients.

Spring offers endless inspiration for creating a memorable wedding, personalised down to the very last detail.
The outdoor spaces, surrounded by English-style gardens, centuries-old woodland and cultivated fields, provide a beautiful setting for an outdoor ceremony and a distinctive garden aperitif. Couples can also explore more informal and contemporary options, such as gourmet food trucks and live cooking stations. For an even more relaxed and convivial atmosphere, the lawn can become the setting for an elegant picnic, complete with baskets, blankets, cushions and intimate food corners.
Water can also become a captivating theme running throughout the celebration. The breathtaking views of Lake Bracciano, the gentle sound of the stream and the presence of the two historic fountains offer precious inspiration for décor and styling, evoking the fluidity and freshness of water throughout the event. And when the weather is uncertain, the venue’s spacious indoor rooms provide a warm and welcoming alternative, ensuring that the celebration remains just as beautiful and memorable.
With 2027 just around the corner, a limited number of dates are still available in March, April and May. Couples choosing March or April can also benefit from particularly attractive special offers. So why wait until 2028? Your dream wedding might be closer than you think.
