Sorrento is a hidden gem that makes it ideal for anyone who loves magnificent views and beautiful culture. The rich history and the unique natural setting of Sorrento were decisive elements that pushed Malva and Philip to fulfill their dream of exchanging “I do’s” here. Due to the pandemic, there were many unknowns during the final weeks of <\/span>the wedding planning<\/span><\/a>. And yet, against all odds, Marva and Philip did it with no lack of laughter, hugs, or tears. <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

The Bride’s “Something Old” From Her Father<\/span><\/h2>\n

We exchanged very meaningful gifts. The groom gave me diamond earrings which I wore alongside the emerald earrings my father gifted me when I was just thirteen years old. I gave the groom a personal memento of his late father to wear on the inside of his tuxedo jacket. <\/em><\/p>\n

A Destination Wedding Surrounded By Loved Ones<\/span><\/h2>\n

Love was tangible and present during every moment of our wedding. We were grateful all of our loved ones were able to be in Sorrento for our wedding weekend—against all odds<\/span><\/a> and in the midst of a global pandemic. We’ll never forget the memories we made, and the joy it brought us.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Small Moments That Make For An Unforgettable Day  <\/span><\/h2>\n

When I turned down the beautiful garden pathway with my Dad and saw Philip standing in front of the exquisite sunset, I knew I’d never forget that memory. For my husband, his favorite memory of that day is his mother’s speech<\/span><\/a>. Poignant, eloquent, and heartfelt. All the moments we shared with her during the wedding weekend mean so much now that she has sadly passed away. <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Destination Wedding Planning Tips<\/span><\/h2>\n

First, you have to have a balance of flexibility and faith that everything will work out. Especially in the current climate<\/span><\/a>. Secondly, it’s really important <\/span>to not get overwhelmed<\/span><\/a> in response to challenges. The week of our wedding, we were forced to find an alternative venue. So many changes and decisions needed to be made but we grew as a couple in the process. Finally, have a plan but also follow your gut and don’t get hung up on the small details. The most important thing is your union. <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

The Importance Of Personalizing Your Ceremony  <\/span><\/h2>\n

We personalized our ceremony by having our daughter as our ring-bearer. She was amazing—the fruit of our love bringing the rings of our union. It was also important for us to write our own vows<\/span><\/a>. We chose <\/span>ceremony music<\/span><\/a> and readings that had special meaning to us. Everything felt so personal.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
