Sorrento is one of the most beautiful and romantic destinations on the entire Sorrento Coast. With its breathtaking views, rich and complex history, the scent of the Mediterranean Sea and its wonders, it is ready to enchant every single visitor who sets foot here. Getting married here is truly an unforgettable experience for those who want to experience their big day in a magical atmosphere. If you are a couple about to get married, you will know very well that there are plenty of venues that Sorrento offers for a dream wedding.
Some choose to get married in a period villa steeped in history, some on the beach surrounded by the sound of the waves and the sea breeze, and some in a secret garden surrounded by the scent of trees and flowers. Milena and Jerome chose to get married at Villa Zagara, an elegant historic villa that encompasses all this and more. To preserve the memory of this special day, this couple chose to rely on me to make their wedding video: a treasure that will stay with them forever, allowing them to relive every special moment of their most important day.
The wonders of the Sorrentine Coast
The Sorrento Coast is certainly one of the most famous locations in Italy. Known worldwide for its natural beauty, landscapes, scents and flavors, this area is a true treasure chest of all Italian treasures. The Coast is situated along the Gulf of Naples, in the north of the Sorrento Peninsula, and faces the Mediterranean Sea.
It stretches from Castellammare di Stabia to Positano, where the Amalfi Coast begins instead. This area is characterized by breathtaking landscapes: sheer cliffs overlooking the sea, enchanting bays, and villages perched on rocks that over the years have been transformed from small fishing villages to major tourist centers. Exploring these places means getting lost among alleys scented with sea and lemons, discovering ancient traditions and taking a dip in unspoiled bays.
The coast offers its visitors not only a great deal of natural beauty but also a vast gastronomic tradition, influenced by the proximity of the sea and the presence of gardens and orchards of a specific variety. The products used are simple but of great quality, which is why they attract tourists from all over the world (if you like seafood cuisine, there is no other place in the world where you can taste it so good!).
The most typical product of the Sorrento coast is the famous limoncello, a liqueur made from lemon peel that is produced specifically with Sorrento lemons and a special processing method that has been handed down for generations that makes it unparalleled.
The perfect settings for a love story
Sorrento is definitely the jewel in the crown of the Sorrento Coast, attracting tourists and couples in love every year who come from all corners of the planet to get married here. In fact, Sorrento is considered one of the most romantic destinations in Italy, because it offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere and knows how to combine natural beauty with the history and culture of our wonderful country.
In fact, Sorrento has a millenary history, which has its roots in a time even before the Romans: it is debated that this town was founded by the Greeks or the Etruscans to become only later part of the Roman Empire. From that era Sorrento still preserves part of the town structure, as confirmed by the numerous archaeological excavations that have tried to reconstruct its ancient layout, and it was during this period that it already became known for its beauty and mild climate, attracting wealthy Roman patricians who built their villas here.
Even in medieval times Sorrento maintained this charm, becoming a powerful Duchy, often targeted by attacks from neighboring cities precisely because of its riches. Getting married in this place pervaded with history means interweaving one’s love story with the very ancient one of this place, creating an unbreakable bond between lovers and this land.

Dream wedding at Villa Zagara
With its exclusive locations, high-quality services and proximity to Naples and archaeological sites, Sorrento offers a unique and unforgettable experience for your wedding day. In this beautiful land, there are many options offered to the bride and groom-to-be to celebrate their big day: luxury villas, medieval castles, Italian gardens or exclusive lidos.
Milena and Jerome chose Villa Zagara, a luxurious and refined historic villa that boasts several secret gardens full of rare botanical wonders, a large terrace overlooking the sea and gastronomic services of the highest quality, guaranteed by the fact that part of the raw materials are produced directly within the estate.
Villa Zagara is located in a privileged position: it is surrounded by nature and trees, which help to create a very intimate atmosphere, but at the same time it overlooks the Gulf of Naples and the Sorrento Peninsula, giving an unmissable view of the sea stretching as far as the eye can see. In short, a wonderful place to live and to tell about: the perfect setting for a romantic love story and a wonderful scenery for my wedding videos.
A wedding that will never be forgotten
Milena and Jerome’s wedding was magical, they are a beautiful couple full of love and energy. It was truly an honor for me to be able to witness the beginning and crowning of their love story. The venue where they celebrated, the warm day, the atmosphere and scents in Sorrento… everything was perfect. Being there with them and capturing their emotions with my videos was touching for me as well.
What I love most about this job is just being able to create a lasting testimony of such a meaningful moment. I had the opportunity to tell the story of these newlyweds alongside a very talented photographer, Vanessa Tivadar: our jobs as photographer and videographer, different but complementary, gave Milena and Jerome an indelible trace of the first day of their lives together as husband and wife.
Vanessa is a wedding photographer who likes to portray her subjects in the most spontaneous moments. She especially cares about creating a harmony and a bond with the couple that goes beyond the work: it is the only way to be able to achieve that result of such intimate and deep images. In short, it was a wedding not to be forgotten and that will not be forgotten: everything was meticulously organized and nothing was left to chance; the bride and groom were able to spend their day without thinking about anything but enjoying every single moment… also because they had the best wedding planner!
Evelyne Scharer is a wedding planner and a true pioneer in this field. She has been working for years as an event planner and to this day there are so many wedding couples who rely on her to plan their perfect day.
Working side by side with these two professionals created an incredible synergy in which everyone gave their best to give the bride and groom everything they desired. I do this job because I am deeply convinced of the great importance of having a team of professionals to carefully follow your wedding day, because some things are experienced only once in a lifetime, but with a beautiful video, you can relive them whenever you want.
