We've done it again.
Today we have another real wedding that's a little longer than our usual posts.
But once you clap eyes on Angelo and Linsey's stunning Italian wedding day, you'll know why we had such a hard time editing it down.
It's pretty epic.
A haute couture gown, a cliff side setting, a gorgeous couple, and simply stunning photography by Francesco De Tito.
This morning we gave you a sneak peek of this special day, with a beautiful wedding film by Marco Caputo, and now, we're so excited to give you a closer look.
You guys know we have a soft spot for dramatic backless wedding gowns, and Linsey's Galia Lahav wedding dress is such a showstopper.
Poised on a balcony overlooking the romantic hamlet of Positano in Italy, she looks more like a movie star than a real life bride.
Add super chic bridesmaids, a dashing groom, and an intimate day on the Amalfi Coast, and this glamorous, luxurious, and relaxed destination wedding is just divine.

How We Met
Angelo and I met each other one night. He was observing an argument between myself, and a guy cousin of mine.
Whispering to me across the bar, Angelo asked if my cousin was my boyfriend, and I disgustedly shook my head “No!”
After a few attempts of getting me to walk towards him, we met each other half way. Best walk I've ever made!
He was a true gentlemen. Even tried to save me from my big-bad cousin that night!
The Preparation
The morning of consisted of delicious Italian sweets and coffee.
Followed by a few nerves and getting dolled up with my bridal party, mother and mother-in-law. It was a relaxing morning!
Our Proposal Story
As a Christmas present last year, Angelo surprised me with an upcoming trip to Italy.
Nine months later, on our second night in Rome, he surprised me again by getting down on one knee in front of the Trevi Fountain.
Everyone around was cheering and taking pictures. It was unforgettable and such a special night for us.
The Inspiration
The theme was vintage glamour. Blush and ivory tones with lace and pearls.
The Ceremony
Our ceremony still takes our breath away whenever we think about it.
The wedding itself took place on a cliff in Positano overlooking the sea. It was simply magical as the village was painted on the sky at the back of us as well.
Valentina, our wedding planner designed a beautiful chiffon alter with a hanging chandelier made up of flowers. There were rose petals painting the aisle in a beautiful design as well.
The bride's bouquet was made up of a beautiful white orchids, while the bridesmaids had light pink and ivory roses.
The Favours
On each of the ladies place settings was an Italian stamped, tea stained lavender sachet.
On the mens place setting, was a vintage skeleton key, bottle opener. Just for a little remembrance of our wedding day!
All of our guests also left with a beautiful bottle of Limoncello as well.
The Music
The first dance was Frank Sinatra, ‘You Look Wonderful Tonight”.
As the wedding was so intimate, we created a mixed playlist of fun wedding songs.
Oh wow. It's just spectacular isn't it? The dress is just a piece of art, and Linsey wears it so beautifully. And not forgetting Angelo who sure knows how to rock a beige suit! Positano is the third star of this wedding, what a pretty setting for a destination wedding?
Thanks so much to Linsey and Angelo and of course the wonderful Francesco De Tito for sharing this stunning Italian wedding with us.
P.S. Don't forget to watch Angelo and Linsey's cinematic wedding film by Marco Caputo.
