Elope in Matera

Matera, described by UNESCO as “an outstanding example of a troglodyte settlement in the Mediterranean”, is one of the most ancient cities, resting on a rocky upland in the south of Italy. A spectacular honey-stoned ensemble of little alleys, silent squares and old cave churches.

What couples say after their day

“Our experience with Somewhere Crazy was a dream! We worked with Lara to plan our elopement, and she made everything so easy and seamless. Eloping in another country can definitely seem daunting but throughout our whole experience, we felt like we were in the best hands. We can’t thank Lara enough for everything she did, and we are SO glad we picked Somewhere Crazy for our elopement. If you’re thinking of eloping, we highly recommend going with Somewhere Crazy.”

“Somewhere Crazy did amazing work to help my partner and I set up our elopement ceremony in Italy on a relatively short notice. They were beyond accommodating, especially when we had to change the date of the ceremony. The vendors were perfect and the ceremony itself was beautiful! I cannot express how much I would recommend this company for anyone looking to elope rather than have a traditional wedding ceremony!”

Arianna & Trevor

“This was the most amazing experience! Cyntia did a phenomenal job and made everything feel so easy. The photographer and videographer she found were absolutely perfect. You can definitely tell how happy we were just looking at the photos. She was so organized during the planning process. She had us made a Pinterest mood board, provided us an excel planning tool to fill out, a template for her to create the ceremony script, etc. she really accounted for every detail and we would recommend Somewhere Crazy a million times over”
