Alessandra 01/10/2024 0
As a matter of fact, wedding plans continue to be impacted by the emergency COVID19, but although this pandemic period, we can consider ourselves lucky to live in a digital era where information is at our fingertips, video calls are on our screens and planning our Wedding Day is easily possible from your desk.
Here, I’m going to tell you how I thought to virtually plan every aspect of your Wedding Day together with the vendors I usually work with!
Identify your Vision
Once you have a date, start identifying your Wedding vision and then start looking for a professional Wedding Planner who can make it come true.
Meet virtually with your Planner
Many planners like me have jumped on the virtual world using different platforms to plan ceremonies and make their presence felt even at a distance. Thereby, all your wedding planning worries will be at ease!
Organize a virtual venue tour
During this pandemic period, most Wedding venues are now offering personal site tours via FaceTime or Skype. Virtual tours allow the couple to see the venue in real time, you can literally have a walk through your venue with the help of your Wedding Planner asking for all the information you need without risking your safety. What better way to find your Wedding venue right from home than a virtual tour?
Meet virtually your Vendors
Virtual consultations with your future vendors are a great way to meet them and know each other. Set up an initial consultation via Skype or FaceTime with photographers, floral designers, make-up artists, bands and so on always with the essential help of your Planner. They can show you samples of their work and talk about their packages as well.
Caterer & Cake Tasting
Tasting the food is a key thing for choosing which dishes you want your guests to enjoy during your Wedding Day. Just like your venue it’s impossible to complete a tasting in person right now, you can request sample tasting of the food and cake that they offer available for a take away service.
Can’t wait to meet you and plan together…
Dreams never stop!

S&S: the golden years!
a 50th Wedding Anniversary
planned by Wedding Amalfi
A lifetime love-story between a world-famous Italian Ship Commander and his wife!
When a couple reaches such a milestone, it’s customary to renew love promises with a religious ceremony,
just like the time the very first ‘Yes, I do’ was pronounced.
From South Africa, S&S came back to Italy to celebrate one of the most important moments of their life!
Their love story began more than 50 years ago.
Sandra and Salvatore were just two teenagers who lived a few meters away in a neighborhood of Southern Italy;
She was the most beautiful girl Salvatore had ever seen and he was the most lively guy she had ever known.
How not to fall madly in love?
Since their first meeting, they have spent their lives together among sea, projects, dreams, ships and family.
Salvatore step from the Navy to become president of MSC Cruises in South Africa traveling all over the World and
reaching the most important life goals with Sandra by his side. Nowadays, Salvatore is best-known as the Captain of
Shosholoza, the Italian man who challenged the America’s Cup letting people remember the last name Sarno.
On the occasion of their 50th Wedding Anniversary, the boundless love for the sea and their roots
brought them back to their hometown in the Church of Saints Simon and Judas Thaddeus
to celebrate their love again and again.
After an intimate religious ceremony, the couple held a total golden party in Capo d’Orso inviting
their guests to a Michelin-starred dinner in the prestigious restaurant Il Faro di Capo D’Orso.
The most special event for the most special people in the flawless setting of the Amalfi Coast planned with ‘all the love in the World’!
Thanks a million to the Sarno Family for choosing my team and I for the third time as the planners of their events.

Top-tips to choose your Bridal Dress!
For the majority of Future Brides, looking for the flawless bridal dress is the most dreamed moment of the whole wedding planning. As is usual, countless brides-to-be dream about their bridal dress for a very long time!
If you’ve planned to get married during the next season and you’re literally dying to try your dress on, browsing magazines and websites looking for your own style, I’m gonna give you my top-tips to jump into your search really ready for!
Research, research, research
Ball gown, a-line or mermaid?! First and foremost, you should have thought about what kind of dress you want, browse magazines and websites, set your Pinterest board up in order to collect your ideas and show it once in the showroom. The more details, the better!
Schedule different appointments
Once you have a clear idea of what you want, it’s time to schedule appointments! In case, you have specific designers or stylist in mind, find out which showrooms have their bridal collections. The day you first try on a bridal dress, it has to be a stressless one…Doubtless, the best day to try your potential bridal dress is Saturday. Go for it!
Less is more
Just like in the movies, the Bride tends to bring her team of maids or family members. Wait! Less is more when it comes to the most important choice of your life. I suggest to invite your dearest just to your last fitting and surprise them revealing your choice!
Don’t’ forget your Venue
Where and when are you getting married? Your Venue is the key thing and it will be helpful in your search. If you will be having an open-air ceremony on the beach or in a garden, you should avoid ball gowns with long trains…they would be ruined after your first steps. If you’re exchanging your vows in an elegant Cathedral, you should avoid short or backless dresses.
Try on everything
Even if you already have your style set, make sure you give other styles a go at your first appointment. You may be surprised by what you find!
Wear a light makeup
You’re going to try on expensive wedding dresses in ivory, white, champagne… Wear a minimal makeup in order to have a natural and candid look…just as you will be on that special day!
Say your YES out loud
Don’t be surprised if you find your dress at the first stroke! Trying on hundreds of dresses will not make your choice easier, usually it just complicates things. Hence, if you find the bridal dress you love the most, go with it and say your YES out loud!
Have fun
The choice of your bridal dress will be one of the best moment of your life. You’ll surely be the center of attention because you’re…the bride-to-be. Have fun!
For this and for many other important moments… I’ll stand by you for your #destinationlove
Let 2021 be the happy one!

How to fly you to Amalfi Coast? Inspiration, inspiration, inspiration!
It’s a pity not to have the pleasure to enjoy the amazing glimpses of our italian Coast, this summer season! Why not fly with the mind towards one of the most popular & romantic destination settings? Here, some tips that will make you breathe the Italian atmosphere of the Amalfi Coast…
Citrus in every nook & cranny
Citrus will definitely evoke the feeling of Italian coastal tradition. After all, this region is well-known for its fresh and colorful citrus, symbol of the entire Coast, especially lemons. These natural elements could be the best chic decoration giving your Wedding Day an authentic Italian touch!
Never forget old-timey things
The Italian tradition, particularly in southern Italy, is rich in tradition and old-timey decorations, hence, you should be sure to incorporate that ancient feeling with every element of your table-setting. Golden candle holders, silver serving tray, porcelain dishes, antique cutlery and crystal glasses will help you to create the flawless Italian setting you want.
Steal the landscape
Amalfi Coast boasts some of the most breathtaking panoramas & landscapes in the World…terraces overlooking the blue sea, ancient villas, exclusive hotels, charming gardens, private beaches! Why not take advantage of its natural beauty? You will steal the landscape and the landscape will steal the show!
Opt for greenery
Same old floral decorations are totally out! Surrounded by the natural setting of our Coast, you should go for a rustic style: lots of foliage, delicate white flowers and a touch of natural yellow… The perfect match for an Italian-inspired arrangement!
Plenty of traditional food
You’re in Italy, the best cuisine in the World is here! Play with the local traditional food creating a sort of delicious street-market where your guests will find the most tasty traditional food.
Theme-based stationery & favors
Last but not least, you should convey your Italian theme throughout your Wedding Day incorporating greenery, florals and citrus details into your stationery to highlight your Italian-inspired ceremony. Stay within the Italian theme also for your wedding favors: a mini bottle filled with limoncello or local wine is the perfect touch for your guests to never forget your special Wedding Day!
Let’s live a dream come true together for your #destinationlove
Waiting for you!
