Caroline and Mike’s destination wedding in the Italian Riviera was the highlight of our wedding season. Their four-day celebration was an incredible experience that we’ll never forget. Everything was planned to pure perfection by Exclusive Italy Weddings. On Thursday, we joined the wedding party on a boat excursion around the Riviera Coast. Before the cruise, a bridal luncheon was held in the fabulous Hotel Splendido in Portofino. The rehearsal dinner took place in the impeccable Hotel Imperiale, which lies by the sea in Santa Margherita Ligure. Imagine having dinner by that Ligurian Sea, with the fresh air coming from the coast, eating the finest Italian food and a really big plate of ice cream for dessert!
After this amazing evening, the most important day of this four-day celebration awaited us. The weather was just perfect—sunshine and a light breeze. The bride wore a stunning wedding gown by Marchesa. After getting ready, we moved to the even more stunning Villa Durazzo, where we shot the first look, the bridal party pictures, and the reception. If you visit Santa Margherita Ligure, don’t miss this venue, with its breathtaking botanical gardens and beautiful interiors. You can enjoy this Italian Riviera Dream below…
