Wedding season has pretty much arrived. The invitations have already arrived, and the brides are heading off to their final wedding dress fitting.

When I was 10 years old I got to experience my first Italian wedding while visiting my Father's hometown of Alessandria del Carretto.

Italian Weddings on YouTube Our Paesani - Italiansrus.com
As many of you know, I'm preparing to marry my love Antonio, an Italian, in Ischia, an island off the coast of Napoli, in the fall.

For kicks today, I headed to YouTube to see what some weddings in Italy look like. Here's what I discovered.

Should You Change Your Last Name If You're a Married Italian Woman? Our Paesani - Italiansrus.com
I have covered love and marriage as a reporter for more than a decade now. People are always asking about whether, in this day and age, women should change their name after the wedding. It is among the top searched subjects related to being newlyweds on Google, in fact. Of course, the answer is more complicated than merely yes or no. Of course, it depends on who you are and what makes you most comfortable. Of course, your spouse might have an opinion, too. This is relevant to gay couples, too, who might be considering changing to one name or combining both their surnames to make one.

The Cunzata del Letto is a Sicilian wedding tradition in which the bride and groom each choose a young girl to prepare the matrimonial bed, where they will spend their first night as a married couple.
