Weddings in beautiful Italy
The splendid Bay of Naples overlooked by Mount Vesuvius, the magnificent islands of Capri, Ischia and Procida were already favourite destinations thousands of years ago, when Emperors and rich roman families used to choose this part of Italy to spend their long and relaxing holidays. The Romans used to call the region Campania felix, happy Campania, for the beauty of its scenery, the fertility of its soil and the reinvigorating properties of its natural spas.
A charming town located on a terrace rising steeply above the sea, Sorrento is one of the favourite locations for destination weddings in Italy. Surrounded by luxuriant hills where olive and lemon trees are grown, Sorrento offers stunning views over the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius. Its position on the coast also makes it a perfect base for visits to nearby Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast. Civil weddings can be performed in the romantic 8th century cloister of St. Francis, featuring splendid crossed arches in the Arab style. Music accompaniment is particularly recommended here thanks to the perfect acoustic of the location. Please note that in Sorrento Catholic weddings are restricted to residents only.
A pearl in the Bay of Naples, the island of Capri is a maze of narrow alleyways leading to little churches, pretty squares and deep blue waters. Its beauty attracted Greeks and Romans in the past, and has captured visitors from all over the world ever since. The magnificence of its natural setting, its lush vegetation and the elegance of its streets make this island one of the most exclusive destinations in the world. An incredible selection of sophisticated hotels is available for the choice of the right venue. Please note that in Capri Catholic weddings are restricted to residents only.
Capital of the Campania region, Naples (Napoli) is the third largest city in Italy. Lying in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius, this vibrant and ancient city has countless churches, palazzi and historical buildings, many of which date back centuries. The breathtaking vista over the beautiful bay, overlooking the islands of Capri, Ischia and Procida will make your wedding day a truly unforgettable experience. Elegant and sophisticated villas and hotels spread around the city will give you the choice of a perfect reception, to be held right on the beach or on the hilltop.
