Capri as a Wedding Destination
If you are looking for one of the most exclusive and enchanting wedding destinations in the entire Mediterranean, Capri is undoubtedly one of the first that comes to mind: a place where Italian culture and natural beauty coexist, offering dreamlike settings to all who visit. Loved since ancient times by Emperor Tiberius, who chose it as his residence, the island has always held a magnetic allure for notable figures: writers like Oscar Wilde and Graham Greene, artists, and international jet-set celebrities who helped reveal its beauty to the rest of the world.
Over the years, the island of Capri has become an iconic and highly sought-after location for destination weddings, and today, choosing to get married here means embracing one of the most refined places in all of beautiful Italy. There are many unique features that make this island stand out among wedding destinations: the famous Faraglioni rocks rising from the crystal-clear sea, the stunning Grotta Azzurra with its magical reflections, the picturesque villages of Capri and Anacapri where time seems to have stood still, as well as the charming nearby towns for those who wish to explore the surroundings. The island’s exclusive accessibility by sea ensures maximum privacy, while also making every arrival a memorable experience, perfect for couples seeking intimacy and discretion for their wedding day.
From a scenic perspective, Capri offers the ideal setting for dreamlike wedding ceremonies and photoshoots. The island’s natural light, reflected off the sea, enhances the vivid colors of the Mediterranean vegetation and surrounding blues, and with its violet sunsets, it provides newlyweds with a breathtaking backdrop to capture forever in their wedding film. Capri strikes the perfect balance between intimacy and grandeur: every corner of the island is so beautiful that it becomes part of your celebration, and not just the wedding venue itself.
The Charm of Capri Palace Jumeirah & Il Riccio
Anacapri is a small town perched above Capri, representing the island’s most authentic and peaceful side. Here lies the Capri Palace Jumeirah: a temple of hospitality excellence, defined by a strong passion for contemporary art, design, and fine cuisine. This stunning hotel, with its exclusive and refined atmosphere, also boasts a Michelin-starred restaurant where guests can indulge in haute cuisine. The spaces are meticulously curated, hosting prestigious artworks and designer furnishings that harmoniously blend with breathtaking views from its many sea-facing terraces. Meanwhile, the award-winning spa offers moments of pure wellness, ideal for couples wishing to experience their wedding in total relaxation.
The venue is perfect for high-end weddings, thanks to the variety of spaces available for ceremonies and receptions: from panoramic terraces embracing the horizon, to elegant gardens ideal for intimate moments, and refined indoor areas suited for more private events. If, instead, you dream of a ceremony directly by the sea, the hotel’s expert event team is ready to assist you with every detail of the planning process.
Complementing this offering is Il Riccio Restaurant & Beach Club, a seaside gem located just steps from the legendary Grotta Azzurra. This spectacular location, suspended between rock and sea, enchants with its authentic Mediterranean aesthetic: white and blue artistic ceramics, dotted with touches of yellow reminiscent of the region’s iconic lemons. Perfect for sunset receptions, Il Riccio offers the chance to celebrate under a starry sky, accompanied by live music and a gourmet dinner that elevates the true flavors of the island, making every wedding an unforgettable experience etched in the hearts of the couple and their guests.
Brooke and Blaze’s Seaside Wedding
The love story of Brooke and Blaze found its perfect culmination in the enchanting setting of the island of Capri, where every natural element seemed orchestrated to enhance the magic of their special day. The morning began with the couple getting ready in their respective suites, surrounded by the warmth and affection of their closest friends. The emotional intensity of those intimate moments reached its peak during the first look—first, the touching encounter between Brooke and her father, followed by the magical moment when the bride and groom saw each other for the first time in their wedding attire, their eyes sparkling with joy and emotion.
The ceremony took place on a panoramic terrace overlooking the sea, on a splendid day graced by a gentle breeze that brushed the guests and made the bride’s veil dance softly in the air. As Brooke and Blaze exchanged their vows, the deep blue of the sea and the clear sky served as a natural backdrop, silent witnesses to their love. After the ceremony, while guests enjoyed an aperitif on the hotel’s Dior-designed terrace, the newlyweds stole a private moment, exploring the charming streets of Capri in a bright red convertible Fiat, a quintessentially Italian touch that added a sense of carefree joy to their celebration.
During the couple shoot, they strolled along the coastal rocks, their feet nearly kissed by the waves, eyes lost in the endless blue of the Mediterranean Sea. The evening continued with the guests gathering for dinner, followed by the couple’s grand entrance and their first dance as husband and wife. Emotional speeches from friends and family brought moments of heartfelt tears and genuine laughter, and as the cake was cut, the evening came to a close, unforgettable in every way. The timeless elegance of Capri provided the perfect backdrop for a radiant and sincere love story.

Capturing the Essence of Your Capri Wedding Through Videography
When a couple chooses to travel the world to celebrate their love, preserving the memories of their wedding day becomes essential, a way to relive those moments for years to come. Choosing to hire a team of videographers as witnesses to those memories is, above all, an emotional investment, especially when the celebration takes place in an iconic destination like Capri. Wedding photos and video become treasured keepsakes of an unrepeatable experience, allowing every nuance of a day – months in the making and over in the blink of an eye – to be revisited time and time again.
This becomes even more significant for weddings held in extraordinary and far-off locations, where each shot and frame becomes a bridge through which the emotions of such a unique and breathtaking setting can be shared with loved ones who couldn’t be there in person… or with those who aren’t there yet. Think of your wedding video as a gift to your future children: a way for them to witness the beginning of your story, to see the joy in your eyes, to feel the love that brought them into the world.
Capri offers naturally cinematic backdrops that seem tailor-made for being captured on film: from the golden glow of sunset over the Grotta Azzurra to the striking contrasts between the white villas and the deep blue sea, every element of the landscape makes a visually stunning narrative. The synergy between videographer and photographer is essential to authentically capture each precious moment, from the joyful tears exchanged during vows, to the knowing smiles shared in the alleys of Anacapri, to toasts under the stars with the Faraglioni in view.
A talented wedding videographer in Capri knows how to document not only the events but also the island’s unique atmosphere: the sound of waves crashing against the rocks, the scent of lemons carried on the sea breeze, the echoes of laughter bouncing off panoramic terraces. A professional and discreet approach allows the most touching moments to be captured with spontaneity and intimacy, resulting in a final product that feels less like a simple documentary and more like a true wedding film, one that transports the viewer right into the heart of the magical experience lived on this island of dreams. During this wedding we worked side by side with talented photographer Gianni di Natale, who helped us gift this wonderful couple with all the precious memories of that splendid day, captured in the most beautiful and poetic form they could have ever wished for.
