A Celtic wedding: Raffaele and Deborah

Getting married for fun, before the real wedding: Raffaele and Deborah celebrated a Celtic wedding during the Celtic festival in Bonito, Irpinia.

A Celtic rite at the Bonito festival

The Celtic rite is made of ancient symbols: joined hands, ribbons, costumes and music accompanying every gesture. Raffaele and Deborah embraced it light-heartedly and with a smile, as a preview of the day that awaited them.

All around them was the festival, with its crowds, its colours and the atmosphere of another era. Our job was to tell the story of this celebration in reportage style, capturing glances and details without ever interrupting the rite.

A Celtic wedding is an original idea for anyone looking for something out of the ordinary: you will find more inspiration in the articles on our blog.
