A Rooftop Wedding Above the Bay of Naples.

A historic 1870 palazzo on the Naples hillside, The Britannique has held court above the Gulf since the age of grand-tour travellers. Couples marry on the rooftop terrace with Vesuvius and the bay before them, celebrate in Le Pavillon's glass pavilion beneath wicker chandeliers, and dine at The Macphersons with the city spread below.

Ceremonies are held under civil licence. Wedding pricing is offered on enquiry.

The Macphersons Restaurant

Neapolitan Cooking, a Wall of Wine.

The Macphersons restaurant occupies a glass-roofed room above the city, its floor-to-ceiling wine wall the backdrop for contemporary Neapolitan cooking: local seafood, seasonal produce and an Italian cellar. Wedding menus are composed bespoke; The NIQ rooftop bar takes the aperitivo hour, with Vesuvius across the water.

The Bay of Naples & Vesuvius

A Panorama That Belongs to No Other City.

The Corso Vittorio Emanuele runs along the Posillipo hillside, and from the rooftop of The Britannique the Gulf of Naples stretches east to the Sorrento peninsula and north to the volcanic flank of Vesuvius. Below the glass walls of Le Pavillon, the city tilts toward the sea in its own particular way: terracotta and laundry and the dome of Santa Chiara, with Castel dell'Ovo anchoring it all at the water's edge. No other city gives itself to a wedding photograph quite like this.
