Take a deep and relaxing breath - picture the bride walking slowly from an 18th century villa, violin & cello dreamily enhancing the sun and fragrant drenched air. She is walking toward her awaiting groom and guests perfectly framed by green lawns, tropical trees, historic stone walls and a blue blue sea embroidered with the stark rocky Isola di Cirella. She walks down an elegant path lined with pre-medieval Roman columns - a path at night lined with lanterns gently illuminating the white of the reception.
