Our planning process is built around the venue’s strict operational rules, handling the complex logistics so you can focus on the moment.

Optional Extras
The base package is a complete foundation for your elopement. You can add elements to match your priorities.

| Private Boat Tour | Couples wanting iconic portraits of Positano from the sea. | Adds a one-hour tour on a classic wooden boat after the ceremony. We coordinate the captain and timing. |
| Professional Videography | Couples who want to capture the vows and atmosphere of the day in motion. | Adds a second creative supplier to coordinate. We recommend a 4-hour package to match photography. |
| Live Musicians | Adding a classic, romantic element to the ceremony, such as a solo violinist or guitarist. | We manage the musician's placement and timing. Volume is subject to hotel rules. |
