A small wedding at Relais Blu, with very little styling and a lot of view.
Relais Blu sits high on the hill in Massa Lubrense, with a terrace that looks straight across to Capri. Aaron and April wanted a small, relaxed day, and with that view there wasn't much else to add.
Relais Blu, in practice
- The terrace looks straight across to Capri, so getting ready, the ceremony and the sunset all have the island in the frame. Nobody needs to move anywhere else.
- The ceremony in the garden is under the trees: soft, even shade that is kind to faces even in the middle of the afternoon.
- Keep a few minutes free at the railing before dinner. The sun goes down behind Capri, and that is the moment for your portraits.
A slow morning
Pyjamas, a phone on the bed and shoes on black and white geometric tiles. The bridesmaids cheered on the terrace with Capri behind them, and April held the dress up against the sea before putting it on. Aaron and his groomsmen wore matching beige suits.
The Relais Blu wedding, a ceremony under the trees
The ceremony took place in the garden, under the trees. Aaron watched April walk down the aisle with her father, the first kiss came surrounded by their guests, and they walked back out together under the pergola.
We kept it simple: a few details they cared about, and Capri across the water.
Sunset over Capri
Before dinner, a few minutes at the railing as the sun went down: Aaron seeing April from behind, the two of them walking by the infinity pool, and Capri turning dark on the horizon.
An evening among friends
Speeches at dinner, a small white cake and a first dance between sparklers.
