WHY YOUR PRE-WEDDING SHOOT DESERVES AN OSCAR AT VILLA ASTOR

Lights, Camera, Amore

When it comes to finding the perfect backdrop for your pre-wedding shoot, allow me to let you in on a little secret – Villa Astor is the stuff that dreams (and Dolce & Gabbana campaigns) are made of.

Perched atop a promontory overlooking the impossibly blue Bay of Naples, this grand dame of a villa has a history as impressive as the view. Our plan then comes in, crafted in order to best capture the essence of the villa, from the sun-dappled terraces to the hidden alcoves perfect for stolen kisses.

The story that will make your friends and family shed tears of joy on the wedding day, as they watch you on the silver screen, in all the glory of your love story. They will certainly be amazed.

So, let’s look into the setting your dream is made of.

Once the private domain of Agrippa Postumus, the grandson of Emperor Augustus himself, the property has long been a haven for the rich, famous, and hopelessly romantic. Imagine strolling hand-in-hand with your beloved one through the lush, 4-acre gardens, surrounded by over a thousand species of fragrant blooms, with Mount Vesuvius as your backdrop. Or sipping an aperitivo as the sun paints the sky in a breathtaking display of oranges and pinks – the perfect omen for your own happily ever after.

Of course, the interiors are no less of a breathtaker. Marble columns, antique statues, and a museum-worthy collection of Greek and Roman artefacts create an atmosphere of old-world elegance. And the luxuriously appointed suites? Let’s just say you and your beloved will feel like a modern-day royal couple. 

But the true magic of Villa Astor lies in its ability to transport you to a cinematic world of romance. Imagine roaming through the gardens, your every movement captured, with every step of the way meticulously designed to perfection.

Frolicking through the lush, manicured gardens with your loved one is worth taking a picture or two, or a million! The warm Mediterranean sun casting a golden glow on your faces, making each shot perfect.

While the vistas of the Bay of Naples provide the perfect backdrop for your amorous embrace. And who knows, you might even feel inspired to sneak in a few PG-rated clips for your future spouse’s eyes only. After all, what happens at Villa Astor, stays at Villa Astor.
