The magic of the sea from an ancient tower planned by Wedding Amalfi
Paola and Carmine, a young Italian couple, fell in love when they were just two kids
and since then they’ve always lived their lives together.
Carmine is a passionate, creative and brilliant young man who is dedicated to photography and fashion.
A strong passion that he turned into a real job.
Paola is a sophisticated, calm, accurate woman.
A woman who truly loves details and precision.
Not without reason, numbers are an important part of her work.
Travel, hobbies, sports, adventures, art, cooking, wine: that’s all Paola and Carmine share!
Their relationship is a kind of symbiosis mixed with osmosis made of four arms and two hearts that beat as one.
After meeting them and knowing their story, I thought a lot about what their Special Day should be like…
…and I imagined it on the sea!
The perfect venue for their Wedding?
An ancient Saracen Tower, ‘Torre Crestarella’ in Vietri sul Mare.
Their marriage and union symbolized beauty, nature, history, tradition and love.
Everything was flawless!

Postponed Wedding? Here my tips to store your Bridal Dress!
If your big day was postponed due to the global pandemic, you already know there’s a lot to think about! In addition to reviewing your plans, choosing a new date, reviewing your decorations and updating the whole guest list, you also have to think about what you’ll do with your Bridal Dress. For many brides, the search for ‘the one’ can be a long and heartfelt process which involves months of appointments and hours of search. After all, it will be the dress in which you are supposed to spend one of the most incredible days of your life. Therefore, you need to make sure your Bridal Dress stays in the best condition for as long as possible… I’ll give you some tips about what you should do with the dress you spent months searching for!
Store your Bridal Dress in a cool & dark place
In order to protect your Bridal Dress from light, which can easily fade your dress color, store it in a cool and dark place. But, wherever you’ll store your Bridal Dress, you should avoid storing it in a zip-up bag, the cloth needs ‘to breathe’. Then, you should go for a professional wedding preservation box, or better yet, a wedding chest.
Avoid Damp Places
Don’t store your gown in an attic, a garage or a basement as the temperatures and humidity in these areas of your home can be extreme and damage your Bridal Dress.
To hang or not to hang?
When you’re going to hang your Bridal Dress, you first need to take its weight into consideration. If your dress is a few light layers, satin or silk, hanging it will be the best way to store your Bridal Dress. On the contrary, if you have a heavy Bridal Dress with lots of layers or a wide gown, you will need to dedicate a whole room in your home to store your Bridal Dress, laying it flat on top of a bed in order to save its shape.
Handle it with care
If your Bridal Dress has special embroidery or bead decorations sewn on its gown, you should always use white cotton gloves when you’re handling it if you don’t want to damage it!
Keep the Dust & Stains away
Remember! On a white Bridal Dress, even a tiny speck of dust or stains will show up. Make sure there’s nothing that might touch your Bridal Dress once you stored it, you don’t want to stain it!
Remember to inspect your Bridal Dress
Regardless of the place and the method, I recommend weekly inspections if you want to make sure nothing happened to your Bridal Dress.
Leave a Bridal Note
Furthermore, I suggest leaving a note on the door or on the box, reminding people that there’s a Bridal Dress right there!
Don’t forget your Veil
Last but not least, you should properly hang your veil as well, so make sure to have a veil storage clip on hand! No matter what you’re looking for, I’m always here to give you all the tips you need about your #destinationlove

or it could be the overall theme of the wedding day!
4. Flower Bouquet Minimalist
Flower Bouquet is not more the principle detail. It have to be small and delicate, able to embellish the look of the bride without dominate it. Absolute star will be lavender flowers, dried flowers and handly opened roses.

Meaningful Wedding Rituals for your Ceremony
Most of Wedding Ceremonies are rooted in tradition and involve a series of steps or practices that have been taken for centuries. If you’re looking for some religious, cultural or spiritual practices in order to personalize and make your Wedding Ceremony even more poignant, here you will find the most popular Wedding ceremony rituals which you and your Groom-to-be could incorporate into your Special Day!
Jumping the broom
The jumping of the broom tradition dates back to the early 19th century and has its origins in Western African Weddings. The tradition wants the couple to lay a broom on the ground and jump over it together. Nowadays, this practice represents a ‘brushing away’ of the past in order to start a new life together.
Light a unity candle
This Judeo-Christian tradition is one of the most well-known Wedding rituals and represents the unity of two people and their families too. Both the Bride and Groom hold a lit candle and combine their flames to light a third one that remains unlit throughout the ceremony. Only when the couple
exchanged their vows, they can light the pillar candle using their flames to symbolize the union of their love and their commitment.
Sand ceremony
For this popular practice, the couple pours two separate vases of sand, usually in different colors, into a larger vessel to symbolize their ‘coming together’ as a married couple forever. This practice is particularly meaningful if you’re gonna to tie the knot on a beach or want to use sand from meaningful locations.
Cord of three strands
This religious Wedding ceremony ritual, also known as God’s knot, symbolizes the joining of one man, one woman and God into a marriage relationship with a purple string, a white and a gold. The cord of three strands ceremony could be a great addition to your big day, a truly unique element that friends and family will remember forever.
Have a handfasting
The handfasting ceremony tradition is an ancient medieval Celtic Wedding ritual, this practice involves binding the couple’s opposite hands together with a ribbon or a cord to symbolize their eternal union. You could even use colored ribbons, such as white for purity or red for passion!
Foot washing ceremony ritual
Foot washing is a Christian Wedding ceremony ritual inspired by some Bible verses in which Jesus washes his disciples’ feet. It is usually done to symbolize the couple’s service, humility and commitment to each other for the rest of their lives.
Breaking the glass
The breaking of the glass is one of the most beloved traditions of a Jewish Wedding ceremony. During the ceremony, the Groom smashes a wrapped piece of glass with his foot followed by applause from the guests. Tradition says that the couple will remain married for as long as the glass is shattered!
Planting a tree
If your Ceremony will take place outdoors, you could consider this ritual! It has no official religious or cultural ties, but taking care of a tree symbolizes growth and love. During the Wedding ceremony, the Bride and the Groom will take turns adding soil from two separate containers and water to the seedling, representing two individuals coming together as one.
Whatever style of Wedding Ceremony you and your Groom-to-be will have, there is a unity ritual which can fit with your venue and your mood. It’s up to you to choose the right one for your #destinationlove
