Clarissa & Steve

Sasso Castle – Cerveteri

Clarissa and Steve, a Scottish couple in love with Italy, celebrated an intimate wedding at Castello del Sasso in Cerveteri, Lazio. An outdoor ceremony overlooking the sea, refined details, and an authentic atmosphere, complete with Scottish kilts, golden light, and dancing under the stars. A perfect example of a destination wedding in Lazio, combining nature, elegance, and authenticity.

An intimate outdoor ceremony, with a sea view and Scottish tradition

Clarissa and Steve traveled from Scotland to celebrate their dream of love in one of Lazio's most evocative locations: Castello del Sasso in Cerveteri. They chose a small wedding with just 60 guests, surrounded by lush greenery and overlooking a spectacular view that stretches all the way to the sea. The ceremony took place outdoors, amidst blue skies and golden light, in an intimate and moving atmosphere. Clarissa, elegant in a flowing silk and chiffon gown, joined Steve, who, along with the groomsmen, wore traditional Scottish kilts. The vows were exchanged in an emotional silence, with the light breeze and the landscape providing a natural backdrop. Every shot of that moment speaks of tenderness, respect, and a love lived with authenticity, where every detail found its place in the visual narrative of the day.

A castle between nature and refinement: the heart of the party

Castello del Sasso offered a perfect balance between elegance and nature, with its austere yet welcoming architecture, surrounded by woods and panoramic views. The dinner settings were simple yet refined: linen tablecloths, delicate flowers, soft candles, all designed to enhance the natural beauty of the venue without overpowering it. The dinner took place in an intimate and convivial atmosphere, enhanced by heartfelt speeches from friends and family who paid tribute to the newlyweds with words of affection. It was a touching moment, where tears alternated with laughter, in a perfect balance between emotion and lightheartedness. The reception, organized with taste and fluidity, gave space to every moment of the day, allowing the newlyweds to fully experience every emotion, without rushing.

Authentic emotions, natural shots and an unforgettable party

After dinner, the party came to life with dancing, music, and pure joy. Clarissa and Steve shared every moment with their guests, without forced poses or staged moments. My approach, as always, was to observe on tiptoe, naturally capturing everything that was happening. Their knowing glances, their smiles amid the soft lighting, their spontaneous embraces: each photograph became a living fragment of their love. Castello del Sasso, with its warm light and harmonious spaces, served as the backdrop for intimate and poetic images, capable of capturing the magic of a unique day. This wedding was proof that it takes very little to create something wonderful: a sincere place, dear people, and two spouses who truly love each other.
