If all you want is a desert island, all you need is a Wedding in Sardinia. Practically uninhabited, Sardinia is a mediterranean paradise where blue shorelines extend along endless miles of white sandy beaches. Almost forgotten by time, Sardinia provides a unique experience for you and your guests that will be remembered and treasured for a lifetime. Stay in the capital city Cagliari where the medieval historic center still sits on ancient Roman acqueducts and locals gather in the main square after dinner for a cool 'gelato'. A day trip to the La Giara Plateau is like going to a fairyland where a rare breed of miniature ponies galavant among trees dwarfed and bent by hi-speed windstorms.
The atmospheres on this Italian island are unimaginable:
- Picture your wedding celebration on pink sand dunes, one of the few places left on earth where the dunes still survive and expand untouched. As the sun sets on the mediterranean sea you and your guests toast to your new life together at your beachfront reception;
-
An island in an island, the quaint isle of Carloforte is picturesque and typical Genovese style houses outline the coast where your wedding views looks back at the mother island Sardinia;
-
White limestone shores greet the deep blue waters along the eastern coast of the island, sunlight fades at 2 pm and canyons filter the last rays through the lush vegetation surrounding your beachfront reception venue;
These are just some of the spectacular scenarios which will leave you and your loved ones in awe. Reachable by boat, ship or plane, Sardinia takes you into a surreal world all of its own to create the event of your dreams.
