Their relationship grew stronger over time, leading to their engagement a year later.
Their wedding ceremony was held at the gorgeous Villa Cimbrone in Ravello, Italy. The couple chose their friends, Jos and Tree WoodSmith, of JOS Studios to design their intensely private wedding. Emily wore a beautiful dress made in ethereal layers of nude silk chiffon by Suzanne Hanley. Peter wore a custom-tailored navy tuxedo, with gold cufflinks handed down from groom to groom in Emily’s father’s Sicilian family. He accessorized his look with a watch Emily gifted, which was engraved with “ti amo per sempre,” translating to “I love you forever”.
The ceremony took place at the outdoor Tea Room Pavilion, decorated with flowers and accompanied by a solo violinist. Emily walked down the petal aisle amongst the roses as Tomaso Albinoni’s composition, ‘Adagio in G Minor,’ played in the background. They wrote their own vows and exchanged rings, marking the conclusion of the emotional and joyful ceremony.
After the ceremony, the newly married couple spent the entire day exploring the Terrazza dell’Infinito gardens and the tiny 5th-century town of Ravello. They watched the sunset together and had their private dinner and reception in the extraordinary Crypt. The private villa had an expansive view of the sea. For their dinner, the Villa’s Michelin star restaurant, Matrodi Baldo Durazzo, served them a four-course meal. Following that, the couple danced the night away.
