01A first toast
The welcome evening
A slow evening, a sea breeze, and all our favorite people in one place.

VILLA ASTOR · SORRENTO, ITALY
A little Italian summer.
A lifetime of memories.
A NOTE TO OUR FAVORITE PEOPLE
There is something about Sorrento. The sea, the gardens, the way an afternoon becomes an evening without anyone noticing. We can’t imagine a more beautiful place to bring everyone together.
We’re so happy you’ll be part of it.
THREE CHAPTERS. ONE BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND.
A first look at our celebration.
Exact dates and timings will follow.
01A first toast
A slow evening, a sea breeze, and all our favorite people in one place.
02The reason we’re here
Garden vows and a celebration overlooking the Bay of Naples. A day to remember, together.
03Until we meet again
A final catch-up, a second coffee, and a little more time to take it all in.
THE GARDENS OF VILLA ASTORWHERE THE GARDEN MEETS THE SEA
Above Marina Grande, Villa Astor brings together a cliffside setting, classical art, and a botanical garden that feels like a world apart.
Its 20,000-square-meter garden holds more than 1,000 plant species. Beyond the paths and antique sculptures, terraces look across the Bay of Naples toward Mount Vesuvius.
DISCOVER VILLA ASTORA HOUSE WITH A STORY
William Waldorf Astor acquired the property in 1905, expanding its grounds and shaping the garden’s classical character. Today, interiors by Jacques Garcia sit alongside Greek and Roman antiquities, marble, frescoes, and period furniture.
The villa is a private estate, not a walk-in museum. Its six main-villa suites, grotto, and private sea access are features of the property—not a promise of guest accommodation or included wedding activities.
A note for planning: garden paths and access toward the sea involve stairs and uneven terrain. Please discuss access needs with the hosts before making arrangements.
MAKE A LITTLE HOLIDAY OF IT
Come for the celebration. Leave room for a long lunch, a walk by the water, and the kind of days you don’t need to plan.
Naples Airport is a gateway to Sorrento. Villa Astor lists it as approximately 50 km from the property.
Our hosts will share transfer arrangements, pickup points, and timings once confirmed. No wedding shuttles have been announced yet.
A thoughtful selection of accommodation and any reserved room blocks will appear here when approved by the hosts.
