A Glamorous Lebanese Destination Wedding Near the Amalfi Coast
Set along the Cilento Coast in Southern Italy, just south of the Amalfi Coast, this destination wedding at Castello di Rocca Cilento was a bold celebration of luxury, individuality, and unapologetic energy. Overlooking the Mediterranean and surrounded by centuries of history, the venue provided the perfect backdrop for a high-end Lebanese wedding infused with modern glamour and fearless design.
From the very beginning, it was clear this was not a wedding built on tradition alone — but on vision.
A Bride with a Creative Vision
The bride, Riwa, personally designed nearly every aspect of the wedding day. From the custom papeterie to the ceremony setup and overall visual concept, her creative direction shaped the entire experience. The result was a wedding that felt highly personal, editorial, and intentionally curated
— never generic.
The aesthetic was glamorous yet edgy, refined yet bold.
The color of the night: orange — warm, striking, and unforgettable.
Fashion That Set the Tone
Fashion played a central role throughout the celebration.
For the ceremony, the bride wore Milla Nova , embodying modern elegance with a strong, confident silhouette. As the evening transitioned into full celebration mode, she changed into her second look by Ari The Brand (backlink: https:// arithebrand.com/), perfectly matching the elevated party atmosphere.
The groom also made a statement with an evening outfit change, reinforcing the fashion-forward mindset of the entire wedding. Every look was intentional, confident, and effortlessly stylish.
Music, Movement, and High Energy
Live music carried the celebration from one moment to the next, setting the tone for an atmosphere defined by movement and connection. Dancing was not reserved for the late hours — it was constant, expressive, and completely uninhibited.
The couple’s chemistry was undeniable.
Hot, magnetic, and fully present — they didn’t just host the party, they were the party.
Millefoglie, Fireworks, and a Night to Remember
As the evening peaked, guests gathered around a Millefoglie wedding cake, surrounded by sparklers and collective anticipation. Moments later, a fireworks display lit up the Cilento sky, creating a cinematic finale that felt both intimate and grand.
It was a night defined by emotion, design, and pure energy.
A Day-After Pool & Pizza Party
The celebration continued the next day with a pool and pizza party, once again entirely designed by the bride. From personalized pizza boxes to custom towels and a fully styled bar area, every detail carried the same level of intention and creativity as the wedding day itself.
Relaxed, joyful, and sun-drenched — it was the perfect contrast to the glamorous night before.
A Destination Wedding Beyond Expectations
This Castello di Rocca Cilento wedding was more than a destination wedding in Italy. It was a statement — blending Lebanese heritage, Italian scenery, high-end fashion, and bold self-expression into a celebration that felt modern, confident, and deeply personal.
Captured with an editorial yet candid approach, this wedding was designed for couples who want more than tradition — couples who want atmosphere, emotion, and a wedding that feels as powerful as it looks
