Anantara Convento Hotel - Amalfi - Elopement Wedding

Morgan and Aaron made the best decision and eloped to the ultra romantic Hotel Convento Anantara in Amalfi.
They brought a few pieces of home with them including hand painted pictures of their beloved French Bulldogs on Morgan's Vans, and some special rose perfume by Jo Malone that reminded of Morgan's mom's garden.
They also used roses throughout their floral arrangements provided by the expert Franco di Bianco - Amalfi coast wedding florist.
During their intimate ceremony live string music to set the mood with a classical arrangement of Canon in D as Morgan walked to Aaron waiting at the altar.
During the ceremony the couple also held a sage burning ceremony to honour Morgan's heritage, and they exchanged personal vows they had written for each other.
After the ceremony they did a wedding cake cutting in the cloister. The wedding cake flavour was a family recipie and was decorated with fresh flowers and olive leaves. They also enjoyed a refreshing drink with slices of Amalfi lemons bringing together the Mediterranean theme of Amalfi.
After the ceremony we continued our day on foot through the ancient paths of Amalfi leading us to the panoramic port followed by the Piazza duomo of Amalfi. After a quick stop under the arches of the duomo (because you can never have enough arches and beautiful architecture), Morgan and Aaron began their evening as husband and wife at the famous Da Gemma Trattoria overlooking the streets and piazza of Amalfi.
