S & M

Three-Day Wedding Celebration in Tuscany

When I think back to S and M’s wedding, the first word that comes to mind is unforgettable. They dreamed of a destination wedding in Tuscany, and what unfolded was not just a wedding, but a three-day celebration of love, culture, and friendship. From the rolling hills around Florence to the timeless beauty of Villa Mangiacane, everything was filled with emotion, energy, and style.

We began in Florence, where I photographed their intimate couple session in the heart of the city. Later that evening, guests gathered at Il Borgo Machiavelli for a warm and elegant welcome dinner. It set the perfect tone—families and friends meeting, sharing laughter, and starting the festivities with Italian food and wine under the Tuscan sky.

Day two was all about joy and connection. A lively pool party kicked off the afternoon, with everyone enjoying the summer sun and the relaxed vibe of Tuscany. As evening fell, we moved to Villa Mangiacane, where a long outdoor dinner was lit by soft string lights, music filled the air, and the celebration carried late into the night.

The wedding day itself was extraordinary. S and M wanted their ceremony to reflect both cultures. They included the a traditional celebration rite, blending it beautifully with a classic Tuscan setting. It was emotional, heartfelt, and deeply meaningful. After the vows, the villa became the stage for a stylish reception, followed by a wild after party in the ancient cellars of Villa Mangiacane—an unforgettable way to close the weekend.

Photographing S and M’s wedding was a true privilege. It was more than just documenting a celebration—it was capturing a story of love that crossed cultures and brought people together in one of the most magical corners of Italy.
