Chiara + Francesco - a summer wedding at Convento dell'Annunciata
Since the day of their engagement - that was, actually, a photo session with their friends in a beautiful wine resort in the hills - Chiara and Francesco feeded our excitement with details about their wedding.
We just knew that the theme was A midsummer's night dream, and there would have been colors, a dinner in the woods and fairylights. But when August 6th finally came, it turned out there was so much more: the amazing girls at Ila Malù carefully planned so many wonderful details that they left us completely speechless.

What we said, to give you some sense of how much we loved everything, is that if it was our wedding, it wouldn't have been much different.
Thank you Chiara and Francesco for having us with you!

Ilaria + Emanuele - an outdoor boho wedding in Langhe
When we met Ilaria and Emanuele in Torino for their engagement session, they had already carefully planned their wedding day, with a simple and informal ceremony in the woods, a dinner in the garden and lots of little personal touches to share with their families and friends. They were the easiest and most relaxed couple to work with, and we knew their wedding would have been amazing. And it was, even if it rained. Like, a lot.

We always say that you can do nothing against rain on your wedding day, apart from embracing it, and take the most out of it. And that's exactly what they did: the bravely stood under the rain while we were taking pictures, and kissed, and danced, and laughed together.
In the end, everything turned out even more beautiful than expected. That's the kind of things that happen when two people fall in love.

Reagan + Josh - destination wedding in Vincigliata, Tuscany
We always welcome a wedding in Florence request with smiles and happy dances, because it's no secret we love this city, but we didn't know this one would have been so special for more than one reason.
We only exchanged long emails with Reagan, but we already knew she was the kindest and sweetest bride to work with. We'll never forget our first hug, in Florence, like we were old friends, and the warm welcome by her family who treated us like special guests and never stopped saying thank you for our work, all day long. Yeah, people like this really exist!

Reagan, Josh and their families went through a lot in the past years, and this added a wonderful emotional value to the day: they have been lucky, and they never cease to show how grateful they are about that.
That would have been a good enough reason there wasn't a dry eye in the house, but at the end of their beautiful day in stunning Vincigliata , Josh's brother and his family, who had problems with passports and couldn't make it to the wedding, arrived unexpectedly at the castle and joined their closest family and friends for the rest of the night. Their entrance, and the bride and groom reaction was a memory we'll forever treasure in our heart.

Anna + Seb - Lake Maggiore wedding
Today we want to take you to one of the most fascinating, yet still unknown places in Italy. Lake Maggiore shares with beautiful and more famous Lake Como an ancient heritage and elegant atmosphere, with its small villages with stone roads and cute shops, old belle époque villas and the constant reflection of the mountains on the lake surface.

Anna and Seb got married here, in Anna's family house, and brought to Italy a bunch of friends from all around the world, mostly France, where Seb's family live, and Norway, where they both work and currently live. The laid back setting called for long tables in the courtyard and flowers freshly picked from the garden, with good music and great food (from the über cool traveling chefs Zibo Cuochi). A truly living experience of Less is More. And more, in this case, sounded like amazing.
