The venue

Belmond Caruso, an LVMH group hotel in Ravello Italy, was originally built in the 11th century and is referred to as ‘the haven beyond the sky and sea’.

We knew from the moment that we came across Belmond Caruso, that this was our dream wedding venue. Ash K was lucky enough to visit Ravello in August, and the venue and town exceeded all expectations and were truely enchanting and other-wordly.

We can’t wait to share this magical place with our friends and family on the most important day of our lives.
