We are excited for you to join us for an intimate weekend in Scala, Italy — coastal views, amazing food, relaxing evenings, and a symbolic wedding celebration overlooking the Amalfi Coast.
For now, this is simply the where and when. More details will follow as we get closer. Until then, imagine an Italian summer dinner, a luxury hotel tucked into the hills, and a few days together along the coast.
A few moments from our path together— the engagement, the house, the trips, and the life we are building together.
We’ll be staying together at Palazzo Pascal, surrounded by terraced hills, coastal air, stone pathways, candlelight, and views that feel almost unreal. The exact ceremony setting will remain a little bit of a surprise. Hidden throughout the site are quiet visual hints — stone pathways, dramatic coastline views, and traces of a place suspended above the sea.
Palazzo Pascal sits high above the Amalfi Coast in Scala — quiet, dramatic, and impossibly cinematic at sunset. Terraces, candlelight, long dinners, and views stretching toward the water will shape the rhythm of the weekend.
Candlelight. Aperitifs. Bells echoing through the hills. A late summer evening above the Amalfi Coast.
The Amalfi Coast stretches along the southern edge of Italy’s Sorrentine Peninsula — dramatic cliffs descending into the Mediterranean, terraced lemon groves, winding roads, and historic villages suspended above the sea. Once one of Italy’s great maritime republics, the region is now known for its quiet hill towns, late summer dinners, and impossibly beautiful coastal views.
While Positano and Amalfi attract most visitors, Scala sits quietly above the coastline — older, slower, and more intimate. Palazzo Pascal overlooks the valleys between Ravello and the sea, surrounded by stone pathways, gardens, and sunsets that feel almost cinematic.
Hidden among the hills above Scala are the ruins of the Basilica of Sant’Eustachio, a 12th-century Romanesque church overlooking the sea. Long before the Amalfi Coast became a destination for travelers, these hills connected ancient maritime routes, monasteries, and hillside villages suspended above the Mediterranean.

The journey begins.
Transfer to Scala, followed by evening cocktails and a welcome dinner.
Nearby towns, Amalfi views, leisurely lunches, and time to settle into Italy.
Ceremony, music, aperitifs, dinner, cake, dancing, celebration, and fun.
An open day to follow the coast, linger somewhere beautiful, and enjoy one more evening together.
Arrivederci.
High above Amalfi, across the valley from Ravello, Scala is often called the oldest village on the Amalfi Coast. Legend traces its beginnings to the 4th century, when Roman travelers sailing toward Constantinople were driven ashore by a storm and settled in the mountains above the sea. In the Middle Ages, Scala became part of the powerful Maritime Republic of Amalfi — a fortified hill town of stone paths, churches, watchpoints, and small hamlets tucked into the landscape.
There is something timeless about Scala: the quiet above the coastline, the bells, the terraces, the sense that history is still present in the walls. For centuries it was a bishopric and an important mountain settlement; today it remains one of the coast’s more intimate places, overlooking Amalfi from above rather than sitting in the center of the crowds.
Lemon groves, olive trees, terraced gardens, ancient stone, local wine, and delicious Italian food. Evenings overlook the Mediterranean, and late summer on the Amalfi Coast moves at a slower, more beautiful rhythm.
Late August on the Amalfi Coast is typically warm and sunny, with daytime temperatures around the upper 70s to mid 80s °F and cooler evenings after sunset.
Think linen, light tailoring, comfortable shoes for stone pathways, sunglasses, swimwear, and layers for dinners overlooking the coast.
Expect candlelight, sea air, sunset aperitifs, dinners that stretch late, and the relaxed rhythm of a Mediterranean weekend.
Think cocktail or formal-leaning attire, comfortable shoes for stone paths and terraces, and something you’ll feel beautiful wearing in photos.
Joe, Katelyn, Jacob, Charlie, Susan and Charla — family and friends who make this weekend feel not just like an event, but a genuine celebration of a new beginning.
More details will follow as we get closer. For now, save the dates: August 26–31, 2026. We cannot wait to share this weekend with you.
