The most Magical Wedding! 100/10

We recently celebrated our wedding at Villa Antiche Mura, and it was nothing short of magical! As a couple from Toronto, we were nervous about planning an overseas wedding, but Claudia and Michele made the entire process seamless and stress-free. Their exceptional communication set the tone from the start; they responded promptly to all our inquiries and went above and beyond to accommodate our needs.

From the moment we arrived, we knew we were in good hands. The villa is a stunning venue that exceeded our wildest dreams. The day unfolded perfectly, and every detail was handled with care and expertise. The food was absolutely incredible—beautifully presented and tasted even better than we could have imagined! Our guests were raving about everything!

If you're considering a destination wedding, we wholeheartedly recommend Villa Antiche Mura. Claudia and Michele are dedicated professionals who truly care about making your day special. We are forever grateful for their support in creating a celebration that was more perfect than we ever dreamed!

Thank you, Villa Antiche Mura, for giving us a wedding experience we will cherish forever!

Our slice of heaven

We viewed many venues in Italy but this won due to its location, interior and offerings made. It really is an all service wedding venue whose views will captivate any guest.
We had so much comms with the venue, they offer so many additions to make your day even smoother and special. Their professionalism is second to none along with their responsiveness.
We would have wished for more energy on our actual wedding day but we know it was a hot day and end of week perhaps.
Honestly a great venue 👌🏾.

The best day of our lives

We had our wedding on 28th April 2023. We booked our wedding around 18 months prior. We took a gamble as covid + a baby one the way meant we could not travel to Sorrento to view the villa beforehand. The gamble really paid off as this was better than we ever could have expected, and we expected it to be good,

The view is breathtaking and is the centre of the whole day. We didn’t need much additional decor as the view really did speak for itself, the amount of guests that commented on it said it all really. We have the most amazing and special photos with this view and it really was the perfect place to exchange vows with Vesuvius in the background.

Onto the villa - wow!!! It was hard to know exactly what we would get, as we all know photos can be edited. But genuinely, what you see online is what you get and more. The driveway and gardens are perfectly maintained and look stunning, before we even got to the villa on our pre wedding meeting we fell in love with it and knew we’d made the right choice. Then the building itself is lovely and very clean and well maintained. As you walk through the venue the view is beautiful and again a real wow factor for all our guests.

The lemon tree garden made the prettiest place for some very nice photos and was shaded for those guests who need to be out the sun. Such a gorgeous asset to the place.

The terrace was very pretty and looked really nice when lit up during the evening. The sunset from here whilst we cut the cake was breathtaking.

The team at the villa (Claudia and Michele) couldn’t do enough for us. They responded very fast and answered all queries and questions throughout our planning. They were tolerant of my very British persistent ways, I really loved their laid back but professional approach to wedding planning as this really put me at ease. The had great attention to detail and were understanding of what we wanted, they listened and we wouldn’t change a thing about the day as they got it perfect.

We believe the value of this place, compared to if we had something even a little bit similar in the UK makes it a no brainier in choosing here. It was worth every penny.

Our day was one ourselves and our guests will never forget. So many people told us it was the most beautiful place they have ever been for a wedding and the best wedding they have attended. We had 37 guests and despite the size of the place, it filled very well.

We cant recommend this venue enough, we’ve been telling everyone about it and we wish we could do our whole day 100x over. Anyone choosing here for their big day won’t regret it.

Everything We Hoped it Would Be!

My wife and I were married July 9th 2022 and it was everything we hoped it would be when we decided to do a destination wedding in Italy.

I can't thank Michele and Claudia enough for how amazing they were throughout the whole process - through planning phases until recommending a great last dance song. We planned the entire wedding from the US and Michele and Claudia were extremely responsive whenever we needed them and provided great suggestions.

The villa was stunning. The views of the bay and Vesuvius were amazing. I had seen beautiful pictures online and my expectations were somehow exceeded. Our guests couldn't stop taking pictures, especially during the sunset. The food during aperitivo and dinner was great. Our guests definitely kept the bar busy but they were up for the task. The harpist and guitarists were beautiful and the DJ was great during the party.

Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better wedding. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful everything was and how good of a time they had. It was a day we'll remember forever.

Grazie Mille

Venue - Sorrento, Italy, Amazing, Magical, Memorable, Beautiful, Stunning! The team - Helpful, Attentive, Friendly, Hard working, Vision!

We just wanted to say how thankful we are that we were able to go ahead with our wedding this year and for all the amazing hard work Michele and the team at Villa Antiche Mura did for us.

Our wedding was just perfect, the day was truly spectacular and we wouldn't have changed a thing, not even the little downpour we had as the sun shone so brightly after. As they say if it rains on your wedding day after you've said 'I Do' it's good luck :D

We are so grateful for their assistance with the planning and nothing was ever too much trouble for them. They were extremely responsive and knew exactly what we wanted. Planning a wedding abroad, you will always be a little nervous; however, during our pre-wedding meeting, they put my mind at ease as they had captured my vision perfectly!

All our musicians were beautiful, the harpist, the duo guitarists and the DJ was fab.
The food was spectacular and went down so well with everyone.
My husband and I took a moment during dinner and said to each other "Where else would you rather be on your Wedding Day, looking at your family and friends and being able to have a view of the sea, Mount Vesuvius, The Bay of Naples and Capri in your eyeline".

We really did have just the best day and were lucky we had it all and got to celebrate how we wanted with our family and friends.
We will always be so thankful to Michele and the the team for making it a day to remember.

The Most Breath Taking View In Sorrento

My husband and I had our wedding at Villa Antiche Mura in June 2019 and it was the best decision of our lives. Michele and his staff were absolutely fantastic! His friendliness, attentiveness and attention to details was unparalleled. He helped us with every single detail of the wedding planning and answered all my emails and requests within 12-24 hours. He helped us schedule our baby sitters for the night before and made sure everything was perfect on our wedding day. The food was amazing and the view is breathtaking. There were too many favorite moments from that day to count, but the most memorable one was the beautiful fireworks Michele organized at the end of the night during the cake cutting. Our guests were flabbergasted by the amazing display and to this day they keep telling us that this was one of the best weddings they have ever attended. If you are considering Villa Antiche Mura for your wedding day, choose them. You will not be disappointed. If you have chosen Villa Antiche Mura as your wedding destination, congratulations! You are in for the best day of your life! Thank you Michele and staff for giving us the best day of our lives!

Thank you for a fantastic weekend

We had a fantastic weekend 7-9 June. Michele and team were super helpful, organised and friendly, and made this an amazing experience for both us and our guests. Michele helped us organise a boat trip on Saturday to Capri and Positano, with prosecco and aperitivo onboard (anyhow on the bucket list of our guests), supported in organising a restaurant for Friday evening, as well as booking the filou club for our afterparty on Sunday.

Not the least, we had originally used another wedding planner that failed miserably. Michele took over on short notice, and made this more memorable than we had expected.

The venue is nothing short of amazing - we had a steady 30+ degrees on our big day, but the breeze from the bay made it great nonetheless. Food and drinks matched the venue, and the DJ and Napoletan duo suggested by Michele really made this the party we hoped for.

Thank you yet again!

Our wedding

Had a wedding here this year, I can’t express enough how beautiful it is here, the staff were amazing and so polite, they couldn’t do enough to help/please you. Michele is absolutely amazing at planning everything for you for the big day. He responded to email after email straight away, he done everything I asked and more. The food is excellent and the views are perfect. The cake we had tasted soooo good. It was a very special day and we will always remember it thank you. So glad we chose this venue

Stunning

The most important day in mine and Sharon’s life beyond the birth of our children. Suffice to say if Carlsberg done wedding venues, loved ones, friends and family this would be it. The most stunning, breathtaking Villa I have clapped my eyes on in person. And a special thank you to Michele, whose expertise and style made it all run smoothly
