SAVOCA THE GODFATHER WEDDING

Sicily Island is truly a magical, warm, and hospitable place filled with real-life, sea, beaches, rolling hills, and stunning vistas.  Sicily is truly unforgettable travel into the past. One of the unique ideas for a destination wedding is Savoca a beautiful location in the neighborhood of Taormina. The quiet and tiny village is turning out to be the perfect backdrop for a romantic, intimate wedding. The venue is the panoramic valley with an idyllic view and historical churches, and it did not change from the time of The Godfather.

Francis Coppola filmed his Sicily scenes in the amazing venue Savoca dotted with tiny villages, old stone houses, and winding roads. The love story of Michael Corleone played by Al Pacino started in iconic Bar Vitelli in Sicily.  Bar Vitelli has the same rustic feel that it did in the movie. It is at this famous bar that Michael met Apollonia’s father the bar owner Vitelli and asked his permission to get married to beautiful Apollonia.  Michael Corleone (played by Al Pacino) married Apollonia kneeling on the doorstep of historical Church San Nicolo.

Of course, there are The Godfather filming locations beyond Savoca. The hilltops town of beautiful Forza d’Agro or  Castelmola, Taormina, Giarre, and Aci Reale featured.   Sicily offers a great choice of beautiful venues to plan the wedding or special event in The Godfather theme.  Contact the best international local planner based in Sicily to take care of your small destination wedding in Savoca.
