A Dream Island Proposal on the Sparkling Isle of Capri

An island provides an idyllic spot to pop the question. With sparkling blue crystal waters as far as the eye can see, what better backdrop could there be for asking someone to be your beloved? Pair this with an intimate boat trip and you’ve got yourself a rather stand out proposal.

The Italian island of Capri, the pearl of the “Gulf of Naples”, was the perfect setting for this proposal editorial.

THE SETTING

This minibreak, styled by Carlotta Pomponi Wedding Planner and Designer with the assistance of local tour operator Kaoma Travel, included a luxury shopping experience, where our lovers toured routes made famous by the renowned Fellini film, La Dolce Vita. Our couple saw the sights, toured the historic Villa Lysis, visited stunning boutiques and followed the steps taken by some of the world’s most famous jet-setters.

What better place to stay than the luxurious 5-star Capri Palace in the beautiful town of Anacapri. This hotel, which oozes romance, boasts a number of artful, beautifully sunlit suites fit for a queen. The couple visited the hotel’s effortlessly chic Riccio Beach Club, where they experienced the perfect day of “Bella Vita”— sipping on cocktails whilst gazing out at a breathtaking view of the crystal clear sea of Capri, in a magnificent lounge designed by Dior.

The weekend concluded with a dream island proposal on the water with Capri’s iconic Faraglioni as the backdrop. This magical moment was captured by Mantino Photography and Merak Studio.

THE STYLE

The weekend was styled with an eye for fashion and was inspired by the natural colours of Capri— the light blue of its surrounding sea, the yellow of the omnipresent sunshine, and the bright colours of the bustling streets.

Some of the world-renowned boutiques of Capri helped to style our couple in outfits sourced from some fabulous local brands including La Parisienne, 100% Capri and Y’am Capri, sandals from Canfora, beachwear from Aram Capri, and sunglasses from Capri People. So stylish!
