An intimate destination wedding in Porto Ercole, Monte Argentario, Italy

Elegance is the only beauty that never fades. —Audrey Hepburn

Caroline and Niels chose Hotel Il Pellicano for an intimate destination wedding in Porto Ercole, Monte Argentario — a timeless corner of Italy on the Tyrrhenian coast.
Sixteen guests, a quiet pace, and the kind of elegance that doesn’t need to raise its voice.

I'd like to begin this blog with the work of a wonderful and incredibly elegant couple. This event took place at the legendary "Il Pellicano" Hotel, located in Porto Ercole, Argentario, Italy. It hardly needs an introduction.

This was an intimate event, with just sixteen guests and a few children — a wedding almost akin to an elopement. However, I prefer to describe it differently: an intimate and exceedingly elegant wedding.

The vintage color tones and black-and-white elements were a direct expression of the couple's style. As you may know, we, as a studio, believe that each project should be a unique story of its own, with its distinct colors and development.

But let's allow the photos to speak for themselves, as we believe they do an excellent job of conveying the chosen terms. A luxurious, intimate, and elegant destination wedding.
