Wedding in Venice: Palace n.7

The palace was erected in XVI century by Giacomo dei Grigi. The ballroom and three salons of the piano nobile—the section of the palazzo offered for holding events—are elaborately gilded, hung with 19th-century Murano glass chandeliers, and painted with frescoes by Cesare Rotta. The floors are mother-of-pearl terrazzo, and in the family’s private suites upstairs is a Tiepolo ceiling. The ballroom has three huge windows framing a balcony on the Grand Canal. Come summer, the garden, one of the largest in Venice, blooms with roses and wisteria.
