Alfie & Katharine’s Destination Wedding in Florence, Tuscany

​

Alfie & Katharine’s story began in March 2020, during a time when the world was slowing down. They matched on a dating app, a true product of the times, just before lockdowns began. Despite the distance, their connection grew stronger through virtual chats, and they didn’t meet in person until a year later, in August 2021. It may have been a delayed start, but when they finally met, it felt as though the universe had been quietly guiding them toward each other.

A Love Story Spanning London, New York & Italy

​

Alfie’s move to New York the following year added a new layer to their relationship. The distance wasn’t easy, but with Katherine’s work trips to the city, their bond remained strong. It wasn’t long before Alfie realized he didn’t want to be apart from Katharine anymore. He moved back to London, and from that moment, their life together truly began.

​

Alfie & Katharine’s love story is built on faith, connection, and moments that feel just right. Before proposing, Alfie embraced Katherine’s Catholic family traditions and was baptized, showing the depth of his commitment. Then, in September 2024, Alfie whisked Katharine away to the Amalfi Coast, where he proposed in the breathtaking beauty of Italy, just the two of them, in a moment that felt as timeless as their love.

​

For this couple, their wedding day wasn’t about perfection. It was about celebrating the love that had brought them here, in all its real, raw, beautiful glory. It’s a love that, as they say, "just works," and their wedding day was the perfect way to honour it.
