amalfi drive

all destination

The Amalfi coast is characterized by its location high over the sea, split and eroded in various point, with ravines and grottoes. Rocky and wild , it is an endless sequence of sharp rocks, spires,towers, that move down towards the sea on wich the hand of man has laid out a series of terraces planted with olives, citrus, trees, vineyards.

Towards the interior the ridge of the Lattari hills acts as backdrop. The name goes back to Roman times, perhaps because of the great quantity of milk (latte in italian) wich was produced here. Travelling from Positano towards Amalfi, the road moves inland in order to go round the Vallone of Positano. On high is the Natural Arch, a large opening in the rock below Monte S. Angelo, particullary evocative in the morning when the rays of the sun shine through.

After crossing a small river, the road turns back to the sea. From here on it is one ravine after another, one cliff after the other, while Positano appears and disappears from sight as one curve after the other is rounded.

The clearing Behind the small church of S.Pietro which stands on the point of the same name offers a splendid view of the gulf, from Punta Campanella to Capo Sottile.

You are bound to disappoint some members of your family and friends who cannot be with you on the day, especially grandparents who may feel unable to undertake such a trip. To appease any objections you could arrange to have a blessing service or reception when you return, but at the very least have a video made of the day so that you can share your special moments with those unable to be with you.>>>

Religious Wedding In Sorrento

In Italy a Catholic ceremony can only be performed in a Church and can only be celebrated when both bride and groom are Catholic. If one of the parties is of a different religion, a Catholic wedding is still possible as long as you attend the required pre-marital classes and have the paperwork approved by the religious authorities in Italy. In the case of one of the parties being divorced, the Catholic Church will not allow you to remarry in church. You must have an annulment recognized by the Catholic Authorities.
The following documents are required for a Catholic wedding:
- Declaration from your Pastoral Advisor that both bride and groom are active in the Catholic Church and seriously intend having a religious blessing.
- Certificate of Baptism
- Certificate of First Comunion
- Certificate of Confirmation All the above documents must be sent to the Bishop in the city of residence to obtain the ‘Religious Non Objection Declaration’. Once these have been returned to you, they must be forwarded, together with all the documents listed for the civil ceremony to the local Bishop’s See in Italy to obtain the Italian ‘Religious Nulla Osta.
We require a month as the absolute minimum to give the priest and archbishop in Italy time to review the paperwork.
