Three Days of Sicilian Romance at Dimora delle Balze

Photographed by Rosalie Voortman

There’s something magnetic about Sicily—a place where history, food, and light come together in perfect harmony. For Inge and Max, this sun-drenched island became the backdrop for a three-day celebration that was as much about connection as it was about style. Captured in an editorial yet warm way by Rosalie Voortman Photography, their wedding at Dimora delle Balze was a masterclass in how destination weddings can feel intimate yet unforgettable.

“Inge & Max celebrated their love across three unforgettable days in Sicily, a weekend that beautifully blended elegance, warmth, and the joy of togetherness,” shares photographer Rosalie Voortman. The celebrations began at Dimora delle Balze, a breathtaking estate known for its refined simplicity and farm-to-table philosophy. “On Friday, a playful red carpet soirée set the tone, everybody dressed in glamour.”

Saturday followed with a black-tie celebration, where guests enjoyed seasonal dishes prepared with vegetables and meats sourced directly from the estate’s own gardens and farms. “The night ended in pure magic, fireworks lighting up the sky as everyone raised their glasses to love, laughter, and life”, shared the photographer.

The weekend continued by the sea. “On Sunday, the celebration continued at Lido Nereidi, where friends gathered once more relaxed, sun-kissed, closing the weekend by the sea with wine, music, and heartfelt conversations.” It was, as Rosalie describes, “not just a wedding, but a true experience—a celebration of love, friendship, and the art of living well, all under the endless Sicilian sky.”
