[field title=”Wedding Colors”]

The couple selected a palette that perfectly matched the late spring colors: blush pink shades with a touch of terracotta and white to keep the tradition.

[field title=”Design / Vibe / Vision”]

From the couple: “Our vision was centered around creating an unforgettable experience for our loved ones. With our parents, family, and closest friends in mind, we viewed this as an opportunity to inspire them to explore a country they might not otherwise visit. Michael and I, united by a shared love for wine, imagined Italy as the perfect place to exchange our vows. Renowned for its wines, Italy also provided breathtaking backdrops promising not only a picturesque setting but a unique experience for our guests to carry with them forever. Our vision extended beyond a single day; we envisioned a multi-day celebration. Our goal was to host events like a welcome dinner and a post-wedding pool party, providing opportunities for our guests to connect and fully enjoy the local culture and cuisine.”

[field title=”Proposal Story”]From the couple:

“In the rush to catch our Uber to the airport, I was halfway out the door when Michael called me back. Admittedly, I was annoyed, but I hurried upstairs, only to be greeted by a heart-stopping scene. There, in our home, Michael was down on one knee.

Michael, endearingly nervous, not only shared his heartfelt intentions, but also surprised me with the very same bottle of Napa wine – the Faust Cabernet that symbolized the start of our relationship six years prior – along with first-class tickets to Yountville, California, strategically timed to coincide with the harvest season in Napa Valley.

The thoughtful details of the proposal, coupled with the sentimental choice of wine and the allure of Napa Valley, made the moment not just cute but truly special. It was a celebration of our love, wrapped in the warmth of our home and the promise of a romantic getaway, marking the beginning of our engagement and a new chapter together.”[/field]

The centerpiece of this enchanting day was the bride herself. Her dress was a masterpiece, fitting her like a glove and cascading into a long trail that spoke of luxury. It was intricately embroidered with lace and sparkles, capturing the essence of fairy tales. Her hair, brown as honey in the Tuscan sun, was styled in loose, flowing curls. Her make-up, expertly done by Cherie Spisso, enhanced her natural beauty, giving her a radiant and glowing look that perfectly complemented the romantic Tuscan setting.

The bridesmaids, dressed in chic pink nude gowns, were the perfect complement to the bride’s elegance. Their attire radiated grace, and they carried bouquets that mirrored the bride’s in style and color, albeit on a slightly smaller scale.

[field title=”Food & Drink”]After the ceremony, the celebration continued in the Frutteto, a scene straight out of a fairytale. Guests were welcomed to an opulent array of beige velvet sofas and low, stable tables, complemented by tall tables with fitting high chairs, all adorned in gold. The cocktail selection was nothing short of premium, with choices ranging from gin and vodka to rum, whisky, and tequila-based concoctions. Bubbles from Vignamaggio and the finest Italian beers, Peroni or Moretti, were on offer.

An Extravagant Dinner

As the sun dipped below the horizon, guests made their way to the front of the villa. Here, an extraordinary dinner awaited, orchestrated by the acclaimed food vendor, Galateo. The dinner was a four-course delight, including two pasta courses, a main course with sides, and a wedding cake. Dishes like giant ravioli stuffed with ricotta cheese and lemon, dressed with asparagus cream and candied lemon zest, were followed by paccheri fresh pasta with saffron cream, confit Pachino tomatoes, and asparagus tips. The main course was a succulent beef fillet with Chianti Classico wine sauce, served with sage-flavored roasted potatoes and steamed asparagus dressed with extra virgin olive oil. A veggie option, Eggplant Parmigiana, catered to all palates.

[field title=”Florals & Decor”]

The flowers selection included roses of different shades, carnations, dahlias, white ruscus and rice flower. Grounded florals lined the two sides of the aisle at the ceremony. The iron arch was decorated with greenery and flowers growing up asymmetrically. The reception tables were adorned with low and unstructured florals along the middle, where candle holders of varying heights and tealights in votives created a romantic atmosphere. A mirrored runner down the center of the tables added a touch of elegance.

[field title=”Wedding Cake”]

The crowning moment of the evening was the wedding cake, a Millefoglie that was prepared through a show cooking at Giardino delle Rose by the pastry chef from the catering GALATEO RICEVIMENTI FIRENZE – MILANO. The traditional Italian cake was filled with a delicious chantylly cream and decorated with crunchy almond brittles and a cascade of mixed berries on top. It was a work of culinary art and a fitting conclusion to an extravagant dinner. As the evening waned, guests gathered for a champagne toast, which was followed by a breathtaking display of fireworks. The sky became a canvas, painted with brilliant and vibrant colors, mirroring the emotions of the day.

[field title=”Readings, Ceremony Music, Reception Songs”]

The setting for the ceremony was the Giardino delle Rose. Here, amidst an abundance of living flowers perfectly arranged by the florist Flowers Living, the couple declared their love and commitment. The ambiance was further elevated by the soulful melodies of the Soul Duo from Musica Evento. Greenery and flowers grew up asymmetrically to decorate the existing structure, creating a magical backdrop for the vows.
