Destination Wedding in Amalfi Coast | Josie & Kyle
Intimate Summer Wedding at Amalfi Coast, Italy
Josie & Kyle come from Minnesota, the U.S. Having got engaged on vacation, it just felt right to them to make their wedding a vacation, too, with their closest loved ones in tow. They invited their guests to the paradise Amalfi Coast in Italy. Here, in the idyllic Le Nereidi Eventi, the view was indescribable, the mood was exuberant and the love was omnipresent.
"I found Chymo through a lot of digging around on Instagram. Aside from choosing the right husband, choosing the right photographer was my number one priority. I had heard from so many brides that the day is a blur and goes by so fast, so I knew I had to hire someone I could trust to fully capture the day so I can remember it forever, and what Chymo delivered went above and beyond my expectations. Her use of natural light and her eye for those sweet, candid moments are incredible. Our photos fully capture the beauty and perfection of the day, and for that I could not be more grateful. We feel so lucky to have been able to work with her, not only because of her obvious talent, but also because she was professional, easy to work with, and the nicest person."

Ceremony at Le Nereidi Eventi, Amalfi
"One thing I’ll never forget took place during our ceremony. Right before we exchanged rings, our officiant (the magnificent Mr. Raf) stepped aside and gestured toward the glistening Tyrrhenian Sea in front of us. He told us, “Take in this view and the love around you and this moment and remember it every time you look at the ring on your finger.” Then he had us kiss each other’s rings. It was so simple and sweet and I really do think of that tiny perfect moment when I look at my ring."

"The flowers by Francesco were so stunning, he surprised me with peonies and incorporated lemons into the table arrangements as a nod to the region. The placecards and menus were printed on a gorgeous handmade paper Amalfi has been producing locally since the thirteenth century. For favors, we wanted something compact and lightweight that would fit in guests' suitcases, so we chose wine stoppers with hand painted ceramic tops."
