We recently got married in June 2023 at Lemon Terrace Boutique Villa in Sorrento, Italy. When we initially decided to get married abroad, we researched the options and came across Ionian Weddings. It can be daunting putting your faith in a company to plan your wedding but we felt that it would be the least stressful way to plan a wedding in Italy and we are so glad we did! I honestly don’t think we could have planned it on our own and Ionian Weddings made everything easy for us.

We signed up for a package which included the venue, food, drinks packages, flowers, transport for guests (as the venue is outside of Sorrento), musician, limited photography and celebrant. We then added on some extras, for example extra photography, bridal hair, extra drinks and extra flowers. I liked that the prices were very transparent and we could easily budget. There was no pressure at all from Ionian Weddings to add on extras and we could have just gone with the basic package.

Maria was our UK coordinator and she was so helpful answering our many questions and researching things for us if needed. We decided to go for a symbolic wedding to make things easier for us, but they offer a lot of support with the paperwork if you wish to get legally married in Italy.

When we arrived in Italy, we met with Rosaria and Viola, who were the local coordinators. Rosaria is one of the most organised women I have ever met, and had a full itinerary documentation for us to refer to. She was present to welcome our guests for the pre wedding dinner and then on the wedding day itself, she made sure everything was going to plan and prompted us where needed. She took us to visit the florist as well as meet the hotel manager, and the restaurant manager before the wedding events started, so we felt fully confident that everything would go to plan., which it did.

Our wedding day was truly perfect and I really think a lot of it is down to Ionian Weddings amazing staff. If anyone is thinking of getting married in Italy, this venue is just stunning and I would 100% recommend.
