A day of dreams: Megan and Carlos's Wedding at Villa Cimbrone

Nestled high above the azure waters of the Amalfi Coast wedding venues, Villa Cimbrone in Ravello set the stage for a luxury wedding that was as breathtaking as the views surrounding it. Megan and Carlos, joined by their closest family and friends, celebrated their destination wedding in one of the most enchanting locations in Italy, creating memories that will last forever.

The ceremony – a magical moment in the Tea Room

The heart of this unforgettable day was the intimate wedding ceremony held in the Villa Cimbrone Tea Room. The space was transformed into a romantic sanctuary, adorned with lush floral arrangements in soft hues, creating an atmosphere of refined elegance. As the couple exchanged vows, the sounds of a string quartet filled the air, adding a layer of enchantment to the emotional moment. The panoramic view of the Mediterranean Sea framed the ceremony perfectly, enhancing the sense of timelessness and beauty that surrounded Megan and Carlos’s union.

Guests were treated to a truly magical experience as Megan made her entrance down the aisle, to the delicate strains of Clair de Lune, while Carlos awaited her with a heart full of anticipation. The reading of Neruda’s Love Sonnet XVII was a poignant touch, further deepening the significance of their vows. The Persian Sugar Rubbing Ceremony added a meaningful cultural element, symbolizing the sweetness of their love and union. As they were pronounced husband and wife, the recessional song, At Last by Etta James, filled the room with joy and celebration.

The cocktail hour – a moment to unwind with a view

Following the ceremony, guests moved to the stunning Belvedere of Infinity for the cocktail hour, where they were greeted with breathtaking views of the Amalfi Coast. The live jazz band serenaded everyone with Latin Jazz and Bossa Nova melodies, setting a relaxed yet elegant tone. The high-top tables, adorned with ivory tablecloths, created an inviting atmosphere, while the floral-patterned cushions added a touch of charm to the Belvedere's stunning surroundings.

Guests sipped on Bellavista Alma Brut, an exquisite Italian sparkling wine, and refreshing fruit cocktails, while indulging in an array of delicious canapés, including Neapolitan-style Frittata di Pasta and Mozzarella with Parma ham. The signature cocktails, like the Dirty Gin Martini and Spicy Margarita, added a personal touch to the celebration, making the cocktail hour truly unforgettable.

The reception - A dinner to remember

After the cocktail hour, guests were escorted to the enchanting crypt of Villa Cimbrone for the reception. Bathed in the soft glow of golden candlelight, the room exuded warmth and intimacy. Tables were elegantly set with delicate florals in shades of ivory and blush, paired with fine linens, crystal glassware, and polished silverware. The gourmet Italian menu, crafted with fresh local ingredients, was a true reflection of Megan and Carlos's love for Italy and its rich culinary heritage.

The evening was topped off with a stunning wedding cake that delighted both the eyes and taste buds of the guests. Every detail, from the cake design to the intricate table settings, reflected the couple's impeccable taste and love for one another.

The party - Dancing under the stars

As the night unfolded, Megan and Carlos shared their first dance to the timeless It Had to Be You, while their guests looked on with admiration. The celebration continued into the night, with music, laughter, and dancing, as everyone let loose on the dance floor. The lively after-party featured fun surprises and moments of joy, ensuring that the memories of this magical day would last forever.
