Best of Wedding Photography

The Four Seasons in Florence is one of the best wedding venues in Italy. It is located in the city center of the Tuscan town, a few steps walking from the main highlights. This is where this gorgeous couple decided to elope. Both Americans, they celebrated the wedding in the chapel into the property of the hotel. The rest of the couple portraits has been taken between Florence and Tuscany, on a beautiful sunny day of late September. Please enjoy some pictures below.

Ruth and Muiris both from Ireland decided to get married in Assisi having a Catholic ceremony in one of the local churches.

They felt in love with Umbria due to the romantic and peaceful landscapes, surrounded by grass and trees everywhere and with plenty of medieval towns, with narrow streets where time seems to have stopped.

For their reception, they decided to rent a wonderful castle able to accommodate mostly all their family and friends.

They fell in love with the stunning views over the valley and Assisi city.

They opt for pretty and girly blooms all in white having a whimsical and romantic touch. They enjoyed a magical atmosphere made with olive branches, white roses, candles and fairy lights everywhere.

And they had an Italian group who played mandolin and banjo creating a typical Italian party.

Cassie and Ben are an incredibly sweet American couple. They wanted a small wedding and an intimate ceremony with their family and the closest friends, but they still wanted something special. Cassie studied art history in Italy and had beautiful memories of her time spent there. She thought that getting married in the country of Dolce Vita would have been amazing and they both agree that a destination wedding would have been a perfect choice.  They decided to go 100% Italian, and they chose a local wedding planner and local vendors. The inspiration was simple: they wanted to accentuate the beauty of the natural setting, choosing seasonal flowers that were bright and fragrant. The location, Agriturismo il Mattone, in Ulignano (near San Gimignano) provided a fantastic frame to a day that they will surely remember as the most important of their life.
