When you’re in the planning process, you’ll probably get asked “What is your colour palette?” and are you going crazy about it? I knew it! Picking the ‘right’ hue and matching it with every details of your wedding day is definitely not a simple matter. The shades chosen will shape the most of your wedding decisions, like flowers or bridesmaid dresses. It will become a sort of guideline.
First things first, you should get inspired by your venue and the general setting of your wedding ceremony. Your venue absolutely need to work with your colours, hence, use it and its surroundings to come up with your shades and your colour-code will highlight what you love the most about your venue. In addition to this, you should think seasonally to bring out your shades, just like you do with your clothes! Take inspiration from the season you’re getting married and set the personal vibe you want to have on your special day: romantic, nostalgic, festive and so on. And… don’t overthink it, I’ll show you some of the coolest colour-combos.
Lavender, Sage & Dusty
Best played with: spring or autumn season weddings.
Tips for pulling it off: this light pastel palette perfectly fits with a sophisticated open-air reception. Inebriate your guests’ senses with the scent of lavender incorporating it into your welcome cocktail and placecards along with other aromatic herbs and eucalyptus.
Navy, Cerulean, Yellow & Pearl
Best played with: summer destination weddings.
Tips for pulling it off: if you’re celebrating your day on a terrace sea-view get inspired by this seafaring colour-combo. Navy and cerulean tones will fully match with the sea…and the yellow will give that bright Italian touch. Thus, you can lean on white blooms placing navy and yellow details everywhere, like table-setting and favors.
Ivory & Antique Gold
Best played with: formal weddings.
Tips for pulling it off: What could be more romantic than a timeless wedding palette? Outfit your tables with a chic blanket of cream tablecloths and arrange garlands of greenery and ivory flowers for an elegant and romantic atmosphere. White candles and golden candlesticks are the ideal! In short it’s your call…you’ll see colours you already love in a new way!

How to plan a small and intimate Wedding on Amalfi Coast!
2021 Wedding – How to Plan an Amalfi Coast Elopement
If you are planning a romantic escape for your Wedding Day, the perfect location for your elopement wedding is undoubtedly the enchanting Amalfi Coast. And if the pandemic period altered your wedding plans, an intimate elopement is the best choice!
The Amalfi Coast is one the most popular destinations of the Italian seaside, located in the south of Naples between mountains and the blue sea, and gathers pastel-colored villages perched on the cliff overlooking the sea, Ravello, Sorrento, Atrani, the maritime town of Amalfi, Minori and Maiori, not to mention the gorgeous islands… just some of the flawless frames for your Special Day. The narrow streets, the mediternnean sea, the vibrant sun, the scents, the culinary tradition and local customs will definitely steal your heart!
And what about if you don’t live in Italy? Yes, I know! It could be difficult to figure out how to plan your
elopement wedding on the Amalfi Coast. Here, come my tips!
HIRE A PLANNER
First things first, an elopement wedding represents just a fraction of what a big wedding costs, so hiring a professional wedding planner can still be an affordable option for you. Don’t think twice, you’re gonna need it!
CHOOSE YOUR LOCATION CAREFULLY
Can you imagine your elopement day? The location where you will exchange your vows should be reflective of your love, your kind of relationship and how you would love to spend your special day: in a luxurious ancient villa, in a lush garden, on a sea-view terrace, on a private beach or on a boat! From there, I will help you find the perfect place to elope, a place where you can feel connected with the beauty of our Coast and love!
HIRE AN OFFICIANT & MAKE IT LEGAL
It’s very important to look into the legal laws of the country where you’re planning to elope in order to know in time when you need to register, what papers and requirements you need to have. For this reason, being able to rely on a professional figure will be crucial to make your elopement wedding legal to all effects.
INVEST IN YOUR VENDORS
The florist, the make-up artist, the hair-stylist, the photographer or videomaker, the caterer must be absolutely reliable and professional people and who know the area to perfection. A wedding planner like me will find the right contacts for you and manage the planning process with the vendors without any concerns for you and your groom-to-be.
INVITE YOUR FRIENDS VIRTUALLY
For an intimate ceremony the right choice is to live your elopement just for yourselves or to share this romantic moment just with your parents. And your friends? They can attend the ceremony virtually!
ENJOY YOUR HONEYMOON
On the Amalfi Coast you will not only live the most important day of your life, but also an unforgettable honeymoon. I can plan for you the second part of your elopement as well, book your stay in the best hotels in the area or arrange tours and excursions just for you. What more could you ask for?
Are you already daydreaming? Book your trip!

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!
