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.

Ci sarà un futuro per eventi & matrimoni in Italia? I sogni non si fermano!
Italian Wedding & Event Industry
Dallo scoppio della pandemia globale, i matrimoni ed il lavoro di noi Wedding Planner è stato messo a dura prova con rinvii, riprogrammazione di eventi, continui cambi di programma, dallo scorso anno ad oggi.
Il mondo è stato radicalmente stravolto, in ogni aspetto, ma noi professionisti del settore desideriamo fortemente ricominciare a lavorare. Sono oltre settemila le imprese del settore e migliaia le figure professionali che con il loro lavoro hanno sempre dato lustro all’Italia, ai suoi luoghi meravigliosi, alla sua storia, alla sua tradizione, alla sua cultura, al turismo e all’economia della regione Campania.
La scorsa settimana, in una delle città più belle d’Italia e del Mondo, davanti a Palazzo Santa Lucia io – come capo delegazione Campania – insieme ai tanti colleghi abbiamo preso parte ad una manifestazione della delegazione Federmep per far sentire la voce del nostro lavoro, la voce dei vostri sogni, di progetti e speranze, in pausa ormai da tempo. Il senso di incertezza e di mancata chiarezza, costringe a rimandare il nostro lavoro e i progetti di tante coppie di futuri sposi a data da destinarsi!
Il desiderio di celebrare l’amore e di realizzare sogni, in ogni sua forma, è più acceso di prima. Il tuo matrimonio, il tuo evento privato, non è solo un evento. È lavoro, idee, mani, forze che si uniscono per dar vita ad un sogno, un momento di condivisione e gioia, un ricordo che resta. Quando si potrà farlo di nuovo? Noi speriamo presto, con tutte le misure necessarie che questo passo richiede e con la professionalità che ha sempre contraddistinto il nostro settore. Regalare sogni non è solo un lavoro, ma una vera passione. La stessa che ci fa dire che i sogni non si fermano!
The desire to celebrate love and make dreams come true, in all its forms, is stronger than ever. Your wedding, your private event, it’s not just an event. It’s work, ideas, hands, forces that come together to give life to your dreams, a moment of sharing and joy, a memory to collect. When can we do it again? We hope soon, thanks to all the necessary measures that this step requires and with the professionalism that has always distinguished our sector. It’s not just a job, but a real passion. The same that makes us say that dreams do not stop!

Nothing says Spring like Wedding Flowers
The new season is around the corner… and talking about wedding celebrations what would be a wedding without flowers? It’s like Spring without blooms. I guess you’re a newbie about flowers and you’re wondering what’s the most important thing to consider when choosing your wedding flowers, you ended up in the right place!
Wedding flowers are one of the key elements of your BIG day. Not only your wedding flowers will set the tone and theme of the day, they will also provide colour and decoration as a symbol of love and growth throughout the entire ceremony.
That’s why, I’ll give you some tips about the choice of the right floral arrangement.
Share your ideas
First and foremost, finding your own inspiration will come in handy when you’ll be describing your vision to your potential florist. There are tons of inspiration around, but collecting everything you especially like will be helpful to set your vibe. I’d suggest blooms such as peonies and roses, they totally suit a classy vibe, while if you’d love to give a romantic touch lush arrangements and big blooms will work.
Pay attention to the season
Yes, your wedding date will play a big role in which kind of flowers you can get. Well, certain blooms could be out of season and become more expensive and harder to find at different times of the year. Furthermore, if you’re getting married during the hot summer months keep in mind you’ll need your flowers to be able to last, such as lavender or roses.
Let your venue influence your floral arrangement
The area where your ceremony and reception take place can help you a lot with choosing the right floral arrangement. If you’re marrying in a park or an open-air venue, you can get your ‘wow’ effect keeping flowers to a minimum and utilising the natural blooms around the venue. Moreover, it’s necessary to keep in mind your table-setting too, round tables or imperial tables, they can influence the shape and style of your floral centerpieces. Hence, your venue will widely influence your decisions.
Don’t forget your colour palette
If you have your colour scheme set, make sure to tell your florist!
Have in mind your dress
Your bridal bouquet is your main wedding accessory and should complement the dress you chose, so you need to think about your wedding flowers also in reference to your dress. Usually, a bride’s dress is to be white and any colour will easily match. I tend to suggest flowers in shades of soft pastels and a lots of lush green foliage.
Recycle Your Blooms
Last but not least, your “Yes, I dos” will probably last more or less one hour, on the contrary your wedding flowers will last longer. Then, you can reuse your floral arrangements such as aisle arrangements or bridesmaid bouquets to adorn other areas of your venue: just like at at the moment of
the cake-cutting.
Let romance blossom on your Wedding Day!
