a june wedding above the sea
Some weddings are remembered for the vows. This one is remembered for the light: late, golden, and slow, falling across the cliffs of Amalfi onto the terraces of Anantara Convento di Amalfi grand hotel. Here, the sea is not a backdrop. It is the scene itself.
The Morning Unfolds
The day began softly, as the best ones do. Within the quiet rooms of Anantara Convento Di Amalfi, the morning unfolded without hurry: light moving slowly across stone, the veil laid out with care, the small details gathering into a portrait of what was to come.
Ceremony at the cloister
A wedding ceremony at the Cloister needs very little styling. The architecture frames every glance, every pause before the vows, and every quiet exchange between guests. For couples dreaming of an Amalfi Coast ceremony with real character, this is a setting that does the directing for you.
Portraits
After the ceremony, we slipped away into the gardens of Anantara Convento Di Amalfi. Green terraces, old stone, the sea always somewhere behind them. This was my favourite hour of the day: unhurried, quiet, and entirely theirs. For a few minutes the couple could step out of the celebration without ever leaving it, and the portraits show it in how easily they move together.
reception
As the evening opened, the couple arrived at dinner on the hotel's terrace, high above Amalfi, with the sea stretching out below. Speeches came first, full of the kind of words that make everyone go quiet and then laugh. Dinner followed, then music, and the whole day softened into celebration. By the time the cake appeared, nobody was watching the clock.
Dreaming of a destination wedding above amalfi?
Anantara Convento di Amalfi Grand Hotel offers a setting where every detail feels composed, from the quiet of the Cloister to a long dinner above the sea.
I photograph destination weddings on the Amalfi Coast and across Italy, with an editorial eye for the moments in between.
If you are planning yours, I would love to hear about it.
