Schedule

Meet Me at the Marameo

12:00 pm - 5:30 pm

Seaside Chic. Bathing suits and coverups. Linen sets, sundresses, and sandals.

We cant wait to welcome you to Sorrento in style! Please join us on Sunday for a day at the Marameo Beach Club in Sorrento’s Marina Piccola. Catch a few rays, take a dip in the sea, marvel at Vesuvius, have a spritz (or 2!), and enjoy a taste of la dolce vita as we embark on the first of three days together. Lunch will be provided. Emily’s tip: The “beach” in Sorrento is typical of the area but atypical for those of us that are accustomed to beach days in Florida or at the Jersey Shore. The Marameo is located above the water on a large platform -envision a boardwalk- that is complete with a restaurant, sun beds, changing cabins, and even a jacuzzi. From my time abroad, I’ve realized that Europeans have perfected the art of the outfit change. Many will come in street clothes with their suit in their bag and change in a cabin when they’re ready to sunbathe or swim. The same happens after they’ve finished swimming. So if you’d like, you can change into your suit when you arrive.

Sail Away on the Lady Patrizia

12:00 pm - 6:30 pm

Coastal Cool. Swimwear, sundresses, and shorts in breezy whites and ocean blues.

Setting sail in shades of the sea. Pack your breezy whites and your ocean blues for a day on the water. Opt for a clean, crisp, casual look. Men, think linen polos, shorts, deck shoes or sandals. Ladies, a sundress or matching set would work perfectly. Once aboard we’ll sail through the Gulf of Naples to the beautiful waters of Capri. We invite you to savor local fare, refreshing drinks, and breathtaking views. Wear or bring a bathing suit because after lunch we’ll anchor to swim, soak up the sun, and dance on the deck. Don’t forget your hat and sunnies and please bring a towel if you plan on swimming. Lunch will be provided. Please note that we will be setting sail promptly at noon. Plan to arrive 20 minutes prior to departure.

Ceremony

5:30 pm

Black-Tie Suggested

The Cloister of San Francesco d’Assisi is one of the oldest monuments in Sorrento. Located near the homonymous church and the Municipal Garden, this evocative fourteenth-century structure has a unique architecture. Built on the ruins of a 7th-century monastery, the cloister blends the typical 14th-century style with those of subsequent centuries, incorporating ruins from pagan temples and other archaeological sites. Renovated in the early decades of the twentieth century, the cloister is now a location for classical music concerts, city events, and wedding ceremonies! Emily’s tip: In our planning, Neko and I focused on keeping all our events in the city center and within walking distance of one another. With that being said, we will walk the 800 ft from the ceremony at the cloister to the reception at the Bellevue Syrene. Please keep this in mind when selecting your footwear.
