Margherita Cardelli and Gerardo Cavaliere Wedding
Photo: Alba Morassutti-Vitale1/53Our invitation was created for us by our friend and witness, Marie-Louise Sciò. She chose our beloved landscape, the lowland of Campo Imperatore, for the backdrop and a romantic yellow font that we adored right away for the text.

My dress, inspired by the typical dirndl from Abruzzo, has been designed for me by my dear friend Caterina Nelli, owner of the great Rome boutique Bomba. I loved it at first sight. The attention to details, the luxurious touch of the fabrics, and the simplicity of the look immediately took me. Gerardo’s suit was created and handmade by him. It is Sartoria Giuliva, double-breasted, and made with navy blue fresco lana—a very classic suit, perfect for a wedding.
