MANUELA & ALEX

Capturing Manuela & Alex’s four-day wedding celebration in Capri was a truly magical experience, blending the timeless charm of the island with the couple’s Italian and English heritage. After COVID postponements, the couple—an Italian bride and English groom living in London—finally hosted the wedding of their dreams on this iconic island, creating an unforgettable experience for their family and friends. The color palette of the weekend was inspired by the essence of Capri—white and blue with maiolica accents—bringing a fresh and vibrant Mediterranean elegance to every detail.

The festivities began with a breathtaking sunset pre-wedding session on a private boat, with the iconic Faraglioni rock formations providing a stunning backdrop. It was the perfect start to their celebrations.
Day two featured a welcome event at the legendary Da Paolino, where guests dined under Capri’s iconic lemon trees. The evening was filled with the vibrant sounds of local musicians and dancers, as traditional cuisine delighted everyone’s senses. Manuela wore an elegant Elie Saab gown, perfectly complementing the dreamy Mediterranean setting.

The wedding day itself was pure magic. Manuela wore a romantic Galia Lahav gown for the church ceremony. Afterward, the couple had a private portrait session at the Gardens of Augustus, one of Capri’s most scenic locations, which had been exclusively rented for this special occasion. Their journey through the streets of Capri in a traditional carretto, followed by a vintage red Fiat ride to the reception at Il Riccio at sunset, added an authentic and special touch to their day. The couple’s choreographed first dance to Lana Del Rey’s Young and Beautiful was a show-stopping moment, with Manuela changing into a glamorous Berta gown for the occasion.
The celebrations concluded with a traditional Italian pizza brunch on day four, where Aperol Spritz flowed freely, capturing the relaxed and joyful spirit of Capri.

This spectacular wedding weekend perfectly showcased Manuela and Alex’s love for each other and the island of Capri, blending elegance, tradition, and fun into an unforgettable multi-day celebration.

MANUELA & ALEX

"We chose Roberta as the photographer for our destination wedding in Capri, September 2021.

Her style precisely matched what we were looking for - her pictures are full of light, elegant, romantic and perfectly captured the essence of each moment. W

hile we knew before meeting her that her style would be perfect for us, we didn’t foresee how pleasant it was to work with her in the build up to and during the main weekend.

She was professional, practical and efficient at all times, and a pleasure to have around us. She also went out of her way in the post-production process to deliver the full gallery in record time.

We couldn’t recommend her highly enough!"
