Set on its own private island in the Venetian Lagoon, San Clemente Palace offers a different side of Venice. Historic architecture, peaceful gardens, and five-star hospitality create an unforgettable setting for destination weddings.

Your Wedding

A wedding at San Clemente Palace feels more like a private getaway than a single day’s celebration. Guests arrive by boat before settling into the island, where historic gardens, open lagoon views, and elegant event spaces create a setting that encourages everyone to slow down and enjoy the occasion together. The celebration can begin with a ceremony in the centuries-old church or beneath the open sky before continuing with dinner, dancing, and an evening that carries on well after sunset.

Having accommodation, dining, and resort facilities all in one place means there’s no need to rush between venues. Instead, couples and their guests can spend several days together, making the most of everything the island has to offer while enjoying the privacy that comes with having a destination all of their own.

Your Stay

Staying at San Clemente Palace is an experience in itself. The hotel’s 170 rooms and suites are spread throughout the historic estate, allowing guests to enjoy the comfort of a luxury resort while surrounded by centuries of Venetian history. Between wedding events, there’s time to unwind by the heated pool, visit the Longevity Spa, explore the gardens, or simply take in the changing views across the lagoon.

The island offers a welcome contrast to the pace of Venice, giving guests space to relax without feeling disconnected from the city. A complimentary shuttle boat runs regularly to and from San Marco, making it easy to explore before returning to the peace and privacy of the resort.

Ceremony

Ceremonies at San Clemente Palace make the most of the island’s unique setting, with couples able to exchange vows inside the Historical Church, a beautifully preserved deconsecrated church dating back to 1131, or outdoors in the Sunset Garden or Natural Garden, surrounded by greenery and views across the Venetian Lagoon. Each space offers a different atmosphere while sharing the same sense of privacy that comes with celebrating on your own island.

Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering or a larger celebration, the island provides a peaceful backdrop that feels worlds away from the bustle of Venice, allowing the ceremony to become a truly memorable part of the destination wedding experience
