Italian Weddings

For Italian weddings held in the Cook Islands the Italian Government require all wedding documents to be sent and processed at the Italian Consulate in Wellington, New Zealand. If you require our assistance an additional Service Fee of $200 will be charged.

For Italian Wedding Couples wishing to lodge a 'Transcription Of Matrimonial Assets' it is generally required there will be costs for notarization in their own home principalities upon their return to Italy. These costs are NOT included in the package and are the couples responsibility. We recommend the Bride & Groom must check with their Municipality Office before leaving Italy.
