A celebration of sun-soaked Sicilian charm, coastal romance, and la dolce vita.

Set against the rolling Isle of Wight countryside with sweeping views out to sea, Alice and Frankie's outdoor ceremony felt worlds away. The aisle flanked by abundant ground-level florals in soft buttery yellows, creams, and whites, with a vintage Fiat Abarth parked amongst the long grasses as a nod to la dolce vita.

The celebrations continued inside a sail cloth marquee, where a suspended canopy of trailing greenery, hanging lemons, and mirrorballs crowned the central pole, and long feasting tables were dressed with pale blue linen runners, taper candles, and bud vases of yellow roses, stocks, and gerberas alongside whole lemons scattered down the table.

Illustrated menus of antipasti, primi, secondi and dolce, limoncello favours and a tiered cake trimmed with lemons and buttercream blooms carried the Sicilian thread through every detail. As the sun set over the Solent and the "Down the Isle" neon sign flickered on, the day rolled effortlessly into a golden-hour celebration that felt like a slice of the Amalfi coast.
