Imagine exchanging vows under the Tuscan sun, surrounded by blooming wildflowers, rolling hills, and the charm of a historical estate. This is exactly what Laura and Clint experienced during their magical destination wedding at La Pescaia Resort, a hidden gem in the heart of Tuscany.

The wedding day began with quiet excitement as Laura and Clint got ready in separate accommodations within the estate. Laura, glowing with happiness, surrounded herself with her closest friends while slipping into her stunning gown. Meanwhile, Clint shared laughter and toasts with his groomsmen, creating unforgettable moments before the big “I do.”

As the afternoon sun bathed the villa in golden light, Laura and Clint met in the lush garden of the main villa to exchange their vows. With a backdrop of vibrant greenery and delicate, colorful floral arrangements, the ceremony was pure magic.

The reception was set beneath a canopy of stars, with a stunning imperial table at the heart of the outdoor dining space. The table, draped in shades of dusty blue, was adorned with vibrant, organic floral arrangements that added a whimsical touch to every place setting.

Fairy lights and candles created a soft, romantic glow, enhancing the natural beauty of the Tuscan night.

Cindy and Adam | A fairytale wedding at Castello di Celsa | Tuscany

Cindy and Adam's destination wedding in Italy was a two days celebration at 500 year old castle, nestled in the hills of Tuscany.

Cindy and Adam's destination wedding in Italy was a two days celebration at 500 year old castle, nestled in the hills of Tuscany. The inspiration was a pure Italian fairytale experience, from the romantic outdoor ceremony with a large amount of soft and colored flowers framing the couple under a floral arch, celebrated in the gardens overlooking the hills, to the reception, an intimate table set with 2 imperial tables, situated between the Italian chapel and the ancient walls of the castle as a unique background. Every detail, from the light wooden candlesticks, the crystal chandeliers, a soft and colorful palette of the floral arrangements, a touch of gold from the mise en place to the final surprising fireworks moment, gave to the newlyweds and their guests the most incredible magical night experience.

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

After saying “I do”, the newlyweds and their guests enjoyed the views of the olive groves and the vineyards under the Loggia, during a typical italian aperitivo.The intimate party then continued under the stars, on the garden terrace. Paper lanterns as place cards, golden lights and organic blooms spilling onto the tables set a romantic scene beneath a canopy of lights. Surely this wedding was nothing short of perfection!
