A Villa Antiche Mura Wedding

Inspired by Italian cuisine and culture, Tara and Jason hosted their destination wedding at the Villa Antiche Mura in Sorrento, Italy. Their venue included a dramatic view of Mount Vesuvius overlooking the Gulf of Naples. Their wedding weekend integrated ancient citrus groves into a beautifully bright Mediterranean-infused celebration.

The cliffside property was thick with ancient vines, lemon trees, palms, and colorful blooming shrubs in pink, orange, and blue. To embrace the incredible surroundings, they opted for understated ivory florals and white peonies. An altar was set with two blue and white ceramic vases, outstretched with white florals. White iron garden chairs faced the water, tied with sweet bundles of lemons still affixed to their leafy branches.

Tara wore a classic fitted gown with cutout detail and buttons down the back, which she paired with a chic voluminous veil. Jason wore a bright blue suit to intentionally coordinate with the Mediterranean blues. The color palette fully embraced an ocean-air white, with accents of blue pottery, tile name cards, and fresh lemons. Tara and Jason also enjoyed assembling layers of their millefoglie wedding cake and cutting it at sunset.
