Luxurious 16th-century palazzo on the Grand Canal, perfect for an intimate and elegant elopement
An elopement at Aman Venice is an exercise in quiet grandeur. As a 16th-century private palazzo on the Grand Canal, it offers an atmosphere of protected history and calm that is rare in the city.
The primary consideration for any event here is that Aman is both an operational hotel and a protected monument. This means there are strict rules governing timing, access, decor, and privacy to maintain the guest experience and preserve the building’s integrity.
Our role is to manage these complexities for you. We design a seamless day that respects the venue’s requirements while ensuring your elopement feels personal and unhurried.
Our packages are built around the specific logistics of working within this unique space. Aman Venice is one of several distinct venues we work with; you can compare more Venice elopement venues to find the right fit.
Our 2027 packages for Aman Venice are designed for a symbolic ceremony for two people, held on a weekday.
The starting price covers the core elements needed for a beautiful, well-photographed elopement within one of the palazzo’s historic salons, such as the Piano Nobile. We handle all liaison with the venue to secure the right space and time for your event.
