Italian Dreams & Pastel Wedding Fantasies Come True at Hotel Caruso

Bride and groom share a tender moment on their wedding day

A pastel dream of a wedding on the coast of Italy with an intimate ceremony and candlelit garden reception dinner makes this beautiful day one of our very favorites. Just wait until you see the view! You can see these and even more photos from Purewhite Photography in the full gallery. Now here to describe the details of her destination wedding is the beautiful bride.

From the Bride:

We chose Italy, but more specifically Ravello because it is a small romantic town that has beautiful architecture but also had the perfect backdrop: the ocean. Every structure has character and Belmond Caruso provided a dream-like setting. We also wanted to have an intimate wedding in a foreign place and have always been told Italy is amazing.

The color palette was comprised of pastels, which we thought matched perfectly with the venue’s garden and complimented the ivory gown. It looked classical and elegant combined with the gold accents (place names, cake topper, candles, etc) too.
