Small Doesn’t Mean Doing It Alone.
Leaving behind the guest list doesn't mean giving up the moments that matter. The vows. The flowers. The photographs. A beautiful place in Italy. An aperitivo after saying I do. The little details that make the day yours. And the right people taking care of everything, so you can simply enjoy it.
That’s where local help makes a difference.
An elopement deserves to feel like a wedding, too.
“As we envisioned our day in Italy, the fear lingered - what if it didn’t feel the way we imagined?
But with Dovile, we never questioned a single decision. Everything was handled with such care and precision that we could simply be there - together, fully present. It didn’t just look beautiful. It felt like us.”
— ANNIE, THE BRIDE
FOR COUPLES WHO WANT TO DO THINGS THEIR WAY.
You want your wedding to be about the two of you, not everything a wedding is expected to be.
You love the idea of getting married in Italy, but you'd rather enjoy the experience than plan every detail from scratch.
You appreciate beautiful places, meaningful choices and having the right person by your side.
Then perhaps it's time to run away together
Run away from expectation. Into Italy.
THE RUNAWAY LOVERS COLLECTION
Beautiful Italian places, trusted local professionals and the wedding essentials, curated into an experience you can make your own. Each Collection gives you a clear starting point, with personal choices and local guidance to shape the day around the two of you. Less planning from scratch. More of the Italy you came for.
Less to choose. More to live.
Here's how it works
step one
Find Your Collection
Choose the Italian escape that calls to you - the drama of the Amalfi Coast, the stillness of Lake Como, the eternal city of Rome or somewhere beautifully unexpected.
step two
Make It Yours
Your Collection is the starting point. Together, we'll shape the available details and experiences around the two of you.
step three
Live It the Italian Way
A slow morning, coffee or perhaps prosecco a little too early. Nothing to manage. Just Italy, each other and a wedding day to enjoy.
step four
What stays with you
Beautiful photographs, of course. But what stays is the feeling of knowing you chose exactly the right way to get married.
So, where will you run away to?
Amalfi COAST. Tuscany. ROME. Lake Como. Venice...
or somewhere beautifully unexpected.
A different way to experience Italy.
Find the one that feels like yours.

THE FEELING
“We didn’t know what we didn’t know. And that’s precisely why Dovile’s guidance made this experience right.”
THEY CHOSE ITALY
EMMA & LUKE IN Amalfi Coast
“A traditional wedding didn’t feel like us - elopement made everything simpler.”
We wanted privacy and beauty without the crowds but had no idea where and how to create it. We were led to a hidden spot that matched the feeling, then a relaxed aperitivo in the local piazza after our vows.
SARAH & DANIEL IN Lake Como
“We wanted the experience, not the overwhelming planning from abroad.”
We were terrified of getting Italy ‘wrong.’ From day one, Dovile turned our feeling into a clear plan - permits handled, transfers arranged, light timed. We stopped second‑guessing and just showed up. It felt easy, calm, completely like us.
JULIA & MARC IN Tuscany
“We worried it might feel like just the two of us - too quiet, not enough.”
But Dovile and her team made it feel complete, like everything we needed was already there - warm voices echoing from homes, laughter in the distance, the kind of atmosphere that makes everything feel alive and far more than we expected.
What does a Runaway Lovers day
actually look like?
Before the Vows
The morning begins slowly at your villa or hotel. Hair and makeup, coffee by the window, getting dressed, a first look, while your photographer captures the little moments in between. Then your driver is waiting.
Somewhere beautiful, your vows are next.
A hidden terrace above the Amalfi Coast. A historic villa overlooking Lake Como. A Tuscan garden surrounded by olive trees. A rooftop over Rome as the light begins to change. Chosen not only for the view, but for how it feels to stand there and say I do.
After THE “I Do”
And then, Italy takes it over.
The prosecco opens. An aperitivo becomes a walk through old streets. The afternoon stretches a little longer.
Maybe it's a Riva cutting across Lake Como, a vintage Alfa Romeo winding through Tuscany, a yacht along the Amalfi Coast, or a gondola disappearing into Venice.
There is nowhere else you need to be.

“We started the planning process feeling overwhelmed and uncertain.”
Thanks to Dovile’s expert insight and calming presence, we transformed that anxiety into a joyous anticipation. Our elopement was not just stunning; it was meaningful and deeply personal, a perfect representation of our love."
— JULIENNE
“Deciding to elope in Italy was daunting until we partnered with Dovile.”
She transformed our vision into reality with such grace, ensuring our day was filled with authentic moments, free from the chaos we feared. It felt less like planning and more like being guided into our dream.
