A Catholic ceremony in the heart of the Gargano in Manfredonia – Puglia

Serena and Francesco choose to celebrate their wedding with a Roman Catholic ceremony in the beautiful Cathedral of San Lorenzo Maiorano in Manfredonia. Manfredonia the town where Serena preserves her most pleasant memories of when she was a kid. She is deeply connected to this town.

Serena arrived to the church on a white Wolksvagen Convertible Beetle. Sun shined wonderfully and Serena holded in her hands an elegant white laces umbrella. When she arrived at the church she enchanted all her guests! She wore a wedding dress signed by Errico Maria in candid white. She was divinely, impersonating her simplicity with style and elegance. Her hair gathered from a brilliant clasp brightened and enhanced her face. The entrance to the church was enriched by voluminous vases with white orchids and white and green hydrangeas. The nave of the church was embellished with flowers perfectly in style with the bride’s desire.
It was a moving and emotional Roman Catholic ceremony. At the end of the ceremony, after the traditional rice throwing to toss the bride and groom outside the church, friends and relatives, between emotion and smiles, wanted to capture some photos in the beautiful square in front of the Cathedral.
