Vita gazette – The League, one of the partners of the 68th coalition government, has prepared a gift package for married couples. If the bill prepared by the League is approved, the spouses will receive assistance with wedding expenses of up to 20 thousand euros.

The League presents a bill to the Chamber which provides for a wedding bonus of up to 20 thousand euros but only for those who get married in church. The proposal, filed by Domenico Furgiuele, Simone Billi, Ingrid Bisa, Alberto Gusmeroli and Erik Pretto, is based among other things on the deduction of 20% of the expenses connected with the celebration of religious marriage: from ornaments in the Church, including decorative flowers, the runner, and the booklets, to the clothes for the bride and groom, the catering service, the favors, the hairdresser, the make-up and the photo shoot. The aim of the proponents is to revive the fate of religious marriages decline.

But then comes the correction: “The bill that I signed for the first time, aimed at encouraging the wedding sector, which for reasons of costs included a bonus intended only for religious weddings, will naturally be extended to all weddings during the parliamentary debate, regardless of whether they are celebrated in church or not” said Domenico Furgiuele, first signatory of the proposal. Palazzo Chigi let it be known that it is a parliamentary initiative proposal and that it is not being studied by the Government. In the context of a complex financial framework, the executive, underline the same sources, is working to support the family with concrete and achievable measures, which will be contained in the budget law.

The potential beneficiaries are young couples under 35 with Isee referring to the income declared as at 31 December 2022 not exceeding 23 thousand euros and not exceeding 11,500 euros per person. The deductible expenses associated with the celebration of a religious marriage are set at a maximum of 20,000 euros and are divided among those entitled in five equal annual installments. The expenses must have been incurred in the territory of the Italian State and, finally, the beneficiaries of the bonus must have held Italian citizenship for at least ten years.
