Actress Amy Jackson and actor Ed Westwick exchanged vows in a fairytale wedding at Castello di Rocca Cilento, a 16th-century castle nestled in the hills of the Amalfi Coast. The couple’s love story began in 2021 at an Aston Martin event, where they bonded over their shared passion for dogs and laughter. Their whirlwind romance blossomed with adventurous dates, and eventually led to a proposal in January 2024.
While initially planning an elopement in Africa, the couple realized they wanted their closest friends and family to be a part of their special day. The Amalfi Coast, with its timeless romance and vintage charm, became the perfect setting for their celebration.
The wedding weekend kicked off with a sunset cruise along the breathtaking coast of Ravello, Positano, and Sorrento. The following day, the ceremony took place at the historic Rocca Cilento Castle, offering panoramic views of the sparkling sea. Guests were treated to an enchanting spectacle, with the sun setting in the distant horizon and a magical enchanted secret garden designed by Bianco Bouquet and florist Federica.
The ceremony was followed by a procession around the castle walls, with guests enjoying limoncello and the lively music of musicians and flag-wavers. An elaborate aperitif in the castle courtyard featured a variety of culinary delights, including a barbecue area, oyster bar, vegetarian corner, and the crowd-favorite La Friggitara section serving montanarine and mortadella.
Dinner was a celebration of Italian cuisine, with a menu curated by Michelin-starred chef Salvatore Lazzetta. Guests enjoyed traditional Neapolitan dishes and innovative flavors, like pacchero allo scarpariello with pecorino and parmesan cheese and snapper with scampi and clam guazzetto sauce.
The wedding weekend concluded with a farewell brunch at Giardini Del Fuenti, a picturesque garden and beach club carved into the rock of the Amalfi Coast. Guests gathered under the lemon trees, indulging in fresh, local foods and Ciro Oliva Concettina’s famous pizzas.
The wedding was a testament to the couple’s love for Italy and its culture. The event was infused with the region’s rich history, breathtaking landscapes, and exquisite flavors. From the fairytale ceremony to the vibrant celebrations, every detail was meticulously planned to create a truly unforgettable experience for the newlyweds and their guests.
