A wonderful wedding at La Plage Resort in Taormina
Working as a wedding planner in Sicily is really wonderful! I can work in exclusive venues and enjoy breathtaking views. Sicily has magnificent wedding venues to celebrate your destination wedding in Italy. Beautiful natural historical and mythological spots will enchant you.
One of these great wedding venue is located in one of the most beautiful bays in Sicily: the bay of Isola Bella in Taormina. This is the venue Robert and Alyssa, a young American couple, chose to celebrate their Sicilian wedding and it is called La Plage Resort in Taormina.
Taormina is located on Sicilian Eastern Coast. It has been a tourist destination since 19th century. The pearl of the Mediterranean Sea is the ideal setting for a unique wedding with a breathtaking view of splendid bay of Isola Bella and a spectacular background of the volcano Etna.
Taormina is chic, noble, elegant, always fashionable. It has a history of over a century. Famous artists and writers have been there, and also many celebrities of the show business and high society. Its small historical centre is made up of medieval churches, baroque monuments, and Greek and Roman archaeological sites such as the famous amphitheatre. Taormina has often been the film set of many Italian and international productions.
The Oriented Nature Reserve of Isola Bella
Taormina is a unique city. It is located on top of a mountain, but just two hundred meters down there is the sea. You can reach it with a spectacular cable car. La plage resort is located right in this deep blue sea coast overlooking Oriented Nature Reserve of Isola Bella.
As the matter of fact Isola Bella is a rock connected to the beach by a short and thin stretch of sand mixed with stones. Whether there is low or high tide you can safely walk, the difference lies only in the level of water, which can reach up to your knees. Once you get to the island you will officially enter Oriented Nature Reserve of Isola Bella. La Place Resort is a modern hotel designed to be completely blended with the pine forest that surrounds the centuries-old hotel.

A private beach can be the dreamy ceremony venue. You can tie the knot on the beach, Can you imagine something more romantic than this? Then there is the so called amphitheater area where bride and groom and their guests can dance all night under a wonderful Sicilian sky.
Robert and Alyssa’s wedding at La Plage Resort in Taormina
And this is what Alyssa and Robert did. A young American couple who chose church of Savoca for their roman catholic wedding ceremony and then Plage Resort for their refined candlelight dinner under the Sicilian starry sky.
Bride and groom chose to celebrate their special Italian wedding with their guests on the magnificent terrace in front of Isola Bella. After a delicious welcome aperitif on the terrace facing the sea, they reached wedding reception dinner area. They were truly breathless and fascinated looking at beauty of the terrace set up with candlesticks, bigger candles and red roses.
