The romance of Capri is woven through everything about the island, from its stunning cliffs to sparkling seas! There’s so much to love about a Capri wedding, an easily accessible island in Italy’s Bay of Naples. With quintessential Mediterranean beauty, irresistible beaches, and delicious cuisine, you and your guests will love your time in this fabled destination.
You can arrive by ferry from Sorrento or by helicopter, with the turquoise blue water and soft warm breeze enough to make anyone fall in love when they visit Capri for the first time!
Here’s why Capri is the perfect destination for a romantic wedding or elopement — and the perfect choice for couples seeking luxury, sunshine, and Italian glamour in a waterfront location.
Why Do People Get Married In Capri? The Island’s Famed Landscapes Are Unbelievably Romantic
The iconic landscapes are easily one of the top reasons to get married in Capri. The Faraglioni, a trio of limestone cliffs jutting out from the sea, paired with dramatic cliffs and coastlines, mean this island is instantly recognizable! The cliffs are best seen on an island boat tour or admire the views from Marina Piccola beach.
The famous Blue Grotto is also a highlight of Capri — the striking blue water is illuminated by light entering through a sea cave, creating such a romantic environment. Charter a boat for a private visit and we can take candid wedding portraits as you admire the beauty of this natural formation.
On land, the scenery is just as beautiful, featuring lush formal gardens, five-star hotels, and jagged volcanic landscapes, with plenty of Renaissance-era churches, homes, and public plazas to discover on a walking tour.
A Mild Mediterranean Climate Offers Year-Round Appeal
Why choose Capri as your wedding destination? A major factor for any destination wedding is the weather. Capri offers couples a mild Mediterranean couple that’s ideal for an outdoor ceremony and an al fresco celebration under the stars.
Capri is accessible year-round, although winter can sometimes bring rougher seas and rain, but still pleasant temperatures. While spring and summer are the most popular times for a Capri wedding, autumn can be just as lovely, but with fewer visitors.
Luxury Weddings In Capri, Italy Are The Isle’s Specialty
If you love Italian style, the wide range of luxury venues is why you should get married in Capri! There are so many stunning options, including historical landmarks, private villas with a history of noble ownership, and five-star boutique hotels.
Some of the best options for your Capri wedding include:
Hotel La Minerva
This gorgeous boutique resort was voted by TripAdvisor as the most romantic hotel in Italy, with a minimalist white design, an outdoor pool overlooking the sea, and lush gardens. With impeccable attention to detail, you’ll love everything about your La Minerva wedding.
Hotel Caesar Augustus
An ancient villa transformed into Capri’s only five-star resort, Hotel Caesar Augustus occupies a prime position on a tall cliff, offering incredible views everywhere you look.

Villa Lysis
Built in 1904 by a French nobleman, this opulent villa is very impressive, featuring towering marble columns, open-air patios, and fine art, paired with inviting sculptural gardens. Your Villa Lysis wedding photography will be classically Italian, with beautiful waterfront terraces where we can take beautifully candid portraits, framed by the island’s iconic coastline.
Getting Married In Capri Means You Can Create Such Unforgettable And Bespoke Experiences
Whether you crave cocktails in the piazza or an action-packed day of exploring, Capri offers just what you’re looking for. Charter a sailboat for a private tour of the island, visiting the cliffs and natural arches that make the island so famous, before anchoring at a secluded beach for a refreshing swim.
Or, tour the ancient Roman ruins and historic villas, or connect with your guests over a wine-tasting or cooking class. Planning a bespoke activity is a special way to welcome your guests to Capri and create space for everyone to get to know one another.
Capri also has two Michelin-star restaurants and inviting bars and cafes to enjoy, plus the island is famed for its luxury shopping boutiques. Sip a limoncello and watch the world go by, savoring each romantic moment.
