A Two-Day Destination Wedding at Borgo di Castelvecchio in Tuscany: Holly & William’s Romantic Celebration

Planning a destination wedding in Tuscany? Holly and William’s unforgettable two-day celebration at the charming Borgo di Castelvecchio is a dreamy example of why this picturesque location is perfect for couples seeking romance, history, and breathtaking views.

Day 1: Pizza Party in True Tuscan Style
What better way to welcome your guests than with a sunset pizza party in the heart of Tuscany? Holly and William kicked off their wedding weekend with a relaxed yet chic pizzata in one of Borgo di Castelvecchio’s rustic courtyards. Long wooden tables covered in checkered tablecloths set the tone for a classic Italian evening. Guests enjoyed freshly baked pizza, a vintage gelato cart brimming with Italian flavors, and the magical glow of the golden hour as the sun set behind the rolling Tuscan hills. The atmosphere was warm, intimate, and brimming with authentic Tuscan charm—an ideal way to bring together friends and family before the big day.

Day 2: The Wedding Day – Rustic Elegance and Timeless Beauty
On the morning of the wedding, Holly and William prepared in separate areas of the Borgo, each surrounded by their closest loved ones. Holly spent the morning getting ready with her adorable twin daughters, while William shared quiet moments with his groomsmen.

The ceremony took place in a stunning garden with panoramic views of the Tuscan countryside. A rustic floral arch, elegantly decorated with white roses and greenery, framed the couple as they exchanged vows in front of their guests. The soft breeze and the peaceful atmosphere made this outdoor ceremony even more special.

After the “I do’s,” guests gathered poolside for a refreshing aperitivo, enjoying local wines, cocktails, and delicious Tuscan bites, all while taking in yet another breathtaking view of the surrounding vineyards and olive groves.

Dinner Under the Stars: A Magical Tuscan Evening
As the sun dipped below the horizon, guests moved to the main courtyard, where a long imperial table had been beautifully set under the sprawling branches of a centuries-old tree. String lights, flickering candles, and lush floral centerpieces created a romantic, fairy-tale ambiance. The laughter, heartfelt toasts, and clinking of glasses filled the courtyard as everyone celebrated Holly and William’s love late into the night.

This two-day destination wedding at Borgo di Castelvecchio perfectly captured the essence of a Tuscan wedding: authentic, romantic, and unforgettable. From the laid-back charm of the pizza party to the elegance of the wedding day itself, every detail was thoughtfully curated to create a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

A Fall intimate wedding in Tuscany | Villa il Pozzo |

Elizabeth and Joseph, a lovely couple from Texas who share a passion for Italy, chose to have their destination wedding in Tuscany. They wanted to bring families and friends together for an intimate celebration under the autumnal setting of the beautiful Italian countryside and, with the expert guide of Alessia, they discover the stunning Villa il Pozzo, located in the heart of the Chianti region, between Florence and Siena. With a seasonal palette of yellow, orange, dark red, deep purple and shades of green and dusty blue accents, they crafted the perfect fall dream!

The couple exchanged vows on the villa's terrace, overlooking the beautiful valley. Rolling hills, green and beautiful breezes created the perfect dream wedding setting. For the reception they made their way to the panoramic garden where the dinner table showcased the countryside with a blue dusty runner that came down from the table until it touched the grass. The mixed flower and berry compositions resumed the colors of the palette while the candles and ribbons that bound the napkins were in orange. A string of lights crossed the whole table giving a warm light and a welcoming atmosphere. 

And the menu had all the traditional Italian dishes! Every course featured fresh seasonal products, such as sweet pumpkin cream with crispy pancetta, Pecorino di Fossa cheese, and Pici del Casentino with rabbit and crispy aubergines. 

After the cutting of the cake, a delicious millefeuille filled with chantilly cream and chocolate chips, the newlyweds took their first dance inside a gazebo covered in fairy lights. Just magical!

In loving memory of Paolo
