Alessandra 01/10/2024 0

Nestled along the southern Tyrrhenian Sea, the Cilento Coast—also known as the Costiera Cilentana—beckons travelers with its rugged beauty, ancient history, and culinary delights. Let’s embark on a journey through this captivating stretch of Campania, where azure waters meet lush hillsides.

A Coastal Symphony: where Land and Sea Embrace

The Cilento Coast extends from the Gulf of Salerno to the Gulf of Policastro, encompassing picturesque towns and pristine beaches. This region is an integral part of the vast Cilento territory, which constitutes two-thirds of Salerno province.

Coastal Charms!

  • Pollica: With its charming hamlets of Acciaroli and Pioppi, Pollica boasts the coveted Blue Flag for its pristine beaches and crystal-clear waters.

  • Pisciotta: Wander through ancient streets, discover hidden coves, and indulge in fresh seafood. The Blue Flag waves proudly here too.

  • Centola: Home to Marinella, Le Saline, and Le Dune, Centola’s coastline is a paradise for beach lovers. The Blue Flag flutters along its shores.

  • Ascea: Explore the ancient ruins of Velia, bask on the sandy shores of Marina di Ascea, and relish the coastal breeze.

  • Montecorice: From San Nicola to Baia Arena, Montecorice offers idyllic beaches and a taste of authentic Cilen
  • Casalvelino: Discover the Lungomare, visit the Isola, and soak up the sun. The Blue Flag flies high here.

  • Camerota: Cala Finocchiara and San Domenico welcome seafarers with open arms. A Blue Flag flutters at their shores.

  • Lustra: characterized by rich vegetation which makes the landscape lush and rich in numerous animal and plant species typical of the Mediterranean scrub, a very developed activity is fig growing.

Good News!

Starting from July Low-cost airlines announce their summer ‘24 flight schedules to Salerno’s Costa d’Amalfi Airport.

Mediterranean Diet has an Heart

 The Mediterranean dietary pattern is an example of a prudent choice of lifestyle and scientifically accepted to help preserve human health by protecting against major chronic and inflammatory diseases. Mediterranean diets (MedDiets) are characteristically high in the consumption of fruits, vegetables and salad, bread and whole grain cereals, potatoes, legumes/beans, nuts, and seeds. The Cilento Coast is the heart of the Mediterranean Diet with some of the best treasures of Italian cuisine:

  • Mozzarella di Bufala: creamy buffalo mozzarella pairs perfectly with ripe tomatoes and olive oil

  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil: the Mediterranean diet provides the usage of olive oil as the main source of fat. The health benefits attributed to olive oil are specifically related to extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) intake with its high nutritional quality and multiple positive effects on health.

  • Wine: cilento covers rosso (red), rosato (rosé) and bianco (white) wines as well as two varietally labeled titles: Aglianico and Fiano (both local mainstays).

A Timeless Escape

In this splendid setting is the Castle of Rocca Cilento, one of the locations of our heart to get Married in a Medieval Castle where history meets modern excellence. In May this ancient and magical castle will host the first edition of Olivitaly Med.

As you explore the Cilento Coast, let ancient temples, sun-kissed beaches, and warm-hearted locals weave their magic. Whether you’re sipping limoncello by the sea or savoring handmade pasta, this coastal gem invites you to create memories that linger like the scent of salty air.

Buon viaggio!

All you need to know about Wedding Invitations

As many engaged couples who are getting married during this year, you are forced to handle a wedding postponement and reschedule your wedding celebrations too. Probably, you’ve already slowed down your planning process and went for a change-the-date, but luckily your invitations weren’t ready and sent yet!

Wedding invitations are one of the key things to focus on during your wedding planning. Here, you’ll find out everything you need to know about Wedding Invitations.

Choose Your Style

Your Wedding Invitations give your guests a first idea about what kind of ceremony your wedding will be, so the style of your invitation will say a lot about your marriage: classic and elegant… or casual and romantic?

Whatever the style of your ceremony is, your invitations must represent it to the fullest! If you want to give a romantic touch you should opt for a classic calligraphy or modern graphic design if you prefer a sparkling look.

Match with your Colours

Never forget your Wedding Colours! In order to give your entire ceremony a cohesive look, you should incorporate your colour palette into your wedding invitations as well. Basically, brides-to-be go for ivory, cream or milky-white paired with a dark color which highlights the texts… You could also opt for lively hues, pastel colours or gold and silver metallic fonts. And then, carry them throughout the rest of your wedding paper such as cards, stationery, menus combining them with your venue for example.

Play with Shapes

If you don’t want to choose the classic rectangular shape for your wedding invitations, you could focus on modern and alternative forms such as circular or squared shapes in order to give your invitations an original look!

Choose accurately Your Words

The wording on the invitations should be accurately thought. Traditionally, the main information to be included are bride and groom’s name, date of the big day, general information about location and reception and finally time of your ceremony. You might use traditional wedding invitation wording such as They celebrate their union or informal invitation wording such as Celebrate our Wedding with us, for example. Furthermore, be sure to give your guests a deadline to confirm their presence at your wedding including a final line such as The favor of a reply is requested by… or a more informal one such as R.V.S.P. Last but not least, do not forget your thank-yous!

Put a decoration

Add some personal touches to your Wedding Invitations such as a wax seal with your initials, a ribbon, a tiny flower or a scented item. Your guests will feel pampered from the get-to!

When to Send

Generally, invitations should be sent 3 or 4 months before the Wedding. You & your Hubby-to-be have been planning your big day for the last year, but your guests need to save the official date on their calendars in advance. Moreover, if you’re having a Destination Wedding, you should send out your invitations even earlier… your guests may also need to ask for time off from work and make hotel reservations.

Book your Wedding Bond!

Wedding Amalfi Team can’t wait to meet you to design, step by step, your destination wedding and your bachelorette party together. As a wedding gift, I will be happy to put at your disposal a Wedding Bond and freeze my fees for the wedded-to-be 2021 offering them the same fees of 2020. My goal is to make dreams come true!
