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.

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.
