Meghan & Matthew — Intimate Wedding in Sorrento, Italy
There’s something incredibly special about intimate weddings in Italy. The slower pace, the emotional moments shared with only your closest people, and the way the entire day feels effortless and full of meaning. Meghan and Matthew travelled from the UK to celebrate their wedding in beautiful Sorrento surrounded by around 40 of their closest family and friends, and it was honestly such a joy to capture both in photo and film.
Their wedding day was relaxed, emotional, and full of love from beginning to end.
There are weddings you photograph, and then there are weddings you feel. Sorrento, for Meghan and Matthew, was the latter — a place that already held a lifetime of meaning before a single vow was spoken.
A meaningful wedding in Sorrento
Sorrento already held a special place in Meghan’s heart long before the wedding day. Her mother had also been married in the same city years earlier, making the destination even more personal and emotional for the entire family. Returning to Sorrento to start a new chapter together felt incredibly meaningful, and you could truly feel that connection throughout the day.
The warm Italian streets, sea breeze, and relaxed atmosphere created the perfect setting for an intimate destination wedding surrounded by the people who matter most.
Ceremony at the Chiostro di San Francesco
The ceremony took place at the beautiful Chiostro di San Francesco, one of the most iconic and romantic wedding locations in Sorrento. With its historic arches, peaceful courtyard, and soft natural light, the cloister created such a timeless atmosphere for Meghan and Matthew to exchange vows.
As guests gathered inside the cloister, emotions were already running high. The ceremony felt deeply personal and genuine — quiet smiles, happy tears, and so many heartfelt moments shared between family and friends. Intimate weddings always have a different energy to them, and this one felt incredibly connected and present from the very beginning.
A relaxed celebration at Castore Sorrento
After the ceremony, everyone continued the celebrations at Castore Sorrento where the evening unfolded in the most relaxed and beautiful way. Long dinners, laughter across the tables, wine flowing, and speeches that had nearly everyone emotional at some point.
The speeches were one of the highlights of the day. Full of stories, memories, and genuine emotion, they perfectly reflected who Meghan and Matthew are as a couple and how loved they are by everyone around them.
Nothing about the day felt rushed or overly formal. Instead, the atmosphere was calm, joyful, and full of meaningful moments — exactly the kind of wedding that allows people to truly enjoy being together.
Capturing the real moments
As both photographer and videographer, weddings like this are always incredibly inspiring to document. The focus was never on perfection or big staged moments, but on preserving the real emotions and authentic atmosphere of the day exactly as it happened.
From quiet moments in the streets of Sorrento to emotional hugs after the ceremony and the energy during the evening celebrations, every part of the day felt honest, warm, and beautifully connected.
Kind words from Meghan & Matthew
“Agni was a fantastic photographer!
From the minute we found him his communication was second to none!
He knew exactly what we wanted from our mood board and the pictures spoke for themselves.
The perfect blend of creativity and professionalism.
Agni stayed with us all day and night for our wedding day capturing every moment and was very flexible with our timeline for our wedding day.
After doing our research Agni was very reasonably priced, especially for the level of his work.
Everyone enjoyed his photos and we got some straight away the day after the wedding which we really appreciated.
We would highly recommend Agni, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!”

A final thought: Weddings don't need to be grand to feel completely unforgettable.
Meghan and Matthew's day in Sorrento is a reminder of what destination weddings can be at their best — not a logistical exercise, but a deeply considered choice to gather the people who matter most in a place that means something, and simply let the day be what it is.
Italy continues to be one of the most extraordinary places I work. The light, the architecture, the way life moves more slowly and more beautifully — it all finds its way into the images without trying. Sorrento, in particular, carries something. A warmth that goes beyond the climate.
If you're planning an intimate destination wedding in Italy — or anywhere across Europe — I would genuinely love to hear about it.
