Elopement

Ashlee & Josh’s Wedding

Whimsical Elopement on the Amalfi Coast

Can you think of anything more romantic than exchanging your vows at a private, seaside villa on the Amalfi coast?

Running through the winding streets, hand in hand, toasting with Italian wine and dining on local takeout pizza under the stars, surrounded by your ten closest loved ones - this destination elopement was far from traditional and was exactly how Ashlee and Josh wanted to spend their special day.

Our team traveled to Italy to make this this 12 person, full service Mae&Co elopement come to life. We brought in tow one gigantic suitcase and a dream team of vendors from the states; Karra Leigh Photo, Jessica Heron Images and Good Seed Floral.

The couple chose to exchange their personal vows privately, which they wrote on the backs of prints that they picked up in town earlier that week. They then shared a quick formal ceremony with their 10 guests on the villa’s piazza - framed by two lush, freestanding floral arrangements by Good Seed Floral.

We designed the dinner in the middle of the villa’s garden, the sea as the backdrop and ancient olives trees on either side. Although the meal was simple, we wanted the tablescape to feel grand. Custom menus and place cards by Seek Paper Co and the organic floral table runner by Good Seed were just two of our favorite aspects of this stunning tablescape.

We love elopements for so many reasons, but our very favorite is seeing a couple truly relax and enjoy a day that is exactly what they want. Ashlee and Josh were able to soak in the day together, stroll the winding, stone streets and spend time with the people who truly matter most.

We are so thrilled to have been a part of this incredible, international elopement and would love to help you plan your perfect adventure.
