We’re thrilled to share with you this stunning staycation “destination” vow renewal of Gabriel and Bianca, where they held a fun and intimate Amalfi Coast wedding vow renewal without the added travel costs.
the love story
Seven years ago, Bianca met Gabriel at a CVS in the shopping center where she worked. She went over to CVS one night when she was closing to buy candy. While she was there looking for the candy, a guy came up asking if she needed any help. She gave him a weird facial expression because who needs help choosing candy?! Gabriel tried to be flirty but it wasn’t working so Bianca jokingly said he should buy her the candy, to which Gabriel agreed to! After he paid for her candy she went back to work, but something inside told her to go back to give him her number… so she did. She was super nervous because it was her first time randomly giving her number to a guy. Gabriel ended up walking Bianca to her car and the two chatted for a bit and parted ways; Bianca had a good feeling about this guy. A week went by and Bianca didn’t hear from Gabriel. As it turns out, he lost her number, so he showed up to her job to ask her for it again! The two began texting; and, as they say, “the rest is history.”
the planning
Guided by the creative vision of B-Spoke Events, every detail of this styled shoot exudes the allure of the Amalfi Coast. From the vibrant color palette featuring royal blue, azure blue, magenta, and yellow to the meticulously curated décor elements, every aspect reflects the coastal charm of Italy’s famed destination.
the fashion
Bianca radiates coastal chic in a stunning Casablanca Bridal gown adorned with intricate beadwork, perfectly complemented by Anna’s Bridal white low block heel sandals. Gabriel exudes timeless elegance in a tan notch lapel suit for the ceremony and a striking Midnight Blue-Royal Navy Velvet tuxedo for the dance party, both from Friar Tux.
the details
The ceremony space is transformed into a coastal paradise with towering arches reminiscent of Amalfi tiles and vibrant florals by Chez Rose Floral Designs. Live music by Ocdamia Music Group sets the mood as guests are greeted by a symphony of colors and textures, from lemon-adorned hedge walls to blue and white vases filled with hydrangeas and Italian ruscus.
favorite design elements & tips
The grandeur of the ceremony arches steals the spotlight, providing a visually captivating backdrop for the occasion. Windproofing the décor with ample sandbags and ensuring ample seating options for guests are essential tips for executing this coastal-inspired look flawlessly.
diy elements
Adding a personal touch, the couple treated guests to homemade limoncello favors, a nod to their love for travel and exploration. Their charming love story, from a chance encounter to a lasting connection, adds an extra layer of sentiment to this unforgettable celebration.
