Getting married in a Cilento village is a unique and fascinating experience, perfect for those who want a wedding immersed in the beauty of nature and history.
Through the words and images that follow, I invite you to connect with some of the most fascinating and evocative villages that I have experienced intensely.
TRENTINARA
This enchanting village, known as the ‘balcony of Cilento’, offers breath-taking views of the coast, an intimate atmosphere and a strong connection to local traditions. The cobbled streets, ancient churches and historic buildings creates a charming ambience, ideal for a romantic and authentic wedding day. From the terraces of the village, there are extraordinary views of the Cilento sea, the surrounding hills and the Gulf of Salerno, perfect for spectacular photographs.
I suggest some of the most beautiful locations:
Tredaniele: the heavenly garden of the gods
Immersed in the enchantment of the Cilento, Tredaniele in Trentinara is a place that seems straight out of a myth. With its breath-taking panorama, suspended between heaven and earth, this location embodies the beauty of a heavenly garden, perfect for a divine celebration.
Exchange your vows of love enveloped in the magic of nature, blessed by Aphrodite for beauty and Zeus for eternity. Here, every moment becomes poetry, in an atmosphere that combines intimacy and grandeur.
Pollica (Acciaroli)
The medieval village of Pollica, with its characteristic alleys, ancient churches and proximity to the sea, provides the perfect setting for a wedding and offers an experience far removed from mass tourism, ideal for those seeking an exclusive and private wedding. It is internationally renowned for its genuine and healthy cuisine, which can become the highlight of your reception.
Castle of the Capano Princes: the fortress of Zeus
Castello dei Principi Capano, in Pollica, is a majestic stronghold recalling the power and glory of Zeus. With its imposing architecture and panoramic views, the castle is the ideal location for a regal and legendary wedding.
Imagine a wedding banquet set up in the historic courtyard, like an Olympic banquet, under the starry sky and with torches lighting up the night. Every detail will resonate with the elegance and majesty of the gods.
This historic building also offers evocative spaces for civil or symbolic celebrations, immersed in local history and culture.
Hermitage Estate: the sacred refuge of Athena
Tenuta degli Eremi is an oasis of peace and beauty, nestled in the hills of Cilento, a handkerchief of land between Acciaroli, Pollica and Pioppi. A hidden paradise overlooking the sea, a splendid panorama and an unspoilt territory
This serene place surrounded by nature is reminiscent of the sanctuary of Athena, a symbol of wisdom and harmony. Celebrate your love in an intimate and spiritual atmosphere, where the unspoilt landscape and thoughtful design create a divine setting. Every detail will be designed to enhance the sacredness of your union.
PERDIFUMO
A wedding in Perdifumo, a small village nestled in the hills of Cilento, offers an intimate atmosphere rich in tradition. Located in the heart of the Cilento National Park and close to places such as Castellabate and Agropoli, Perdifumo is the ideal choice for those seeking a quiet and evocative place to celebrate their wedding.
Where to perform the ceremony
- Religious ceremony: The Church of Santa Maria degli Angeli, located in the heart of the village, is a perfect choice for a religious wedding. The historic building, with its architecture, creates a cosy and romantic atmosphere.
- Civil or symbolic ceremony: For a civil ceremony, the municipality of Perdifumo can offer several suitable venues. Alternatively, I have personally visited scenic locations, such as farmhouses or historical residences, for a symbolic ceremony surrounded by nature.
