Wedding Photographer Tuscany | Wedding photos near Florence
A wedding in Tuscany is the dream of many couples who want a romantic and unforgettable celebration in the heart of Italy. Franziska and Fred made this dream come true. They celebrated their wedding with their closest friends at the stunning Villa la Massa right on the Arno just outside Florence.
The day started with getting ready in a suite at Villa la Massa overlooking the river. The anticipation of the big moment was in the air. Maybe it was just the smell of the fantastic espresso, who knows. Franziska was perfectly styled from head to toe, while Fred let himself be pampered in the next room. Then the two met for the first time - for the so-called first look - on a small terrace above the Arno, where the first wedding photos were taken - intimate, candid and full of emotions.
The free wedding ceremony was then to take place under the old trees of the property. As befits a wedding in Tuscany, the wedding speaker was a charming Italian original. In the midst of a sea of flowers, the two finally said yes. There was also subtle music by Celebrate in Style, who had traveled all the way from Munich. There were plenty of tears - not only from the bridal couple, but also from the guests, who were all emotionally involved.
With a shower of flowers and lots of congratulations and hugs, the reception on the pool terrace after the wedding ceremony. With cool drinks, the guests could enjoy the afternoon in a relaxed atmosphere, while Franziska and Fred set off for a small photo session. As always, it was more of a relaxed walk together, during which many wedding photos were taken by themselves without much guidance. Of course, the garden of Villa la Massa offered the perfect setting - wedding photos under the warm Tuscan sun.
Dinner took place in the Villa la Massa restaurant - by candlelight on the terrace overlooking the Arno. Fantastic food and great speeches made for a good time. As the sunlight slowly disappeared behind the hills, it was hardly noticeable that we went into the twilight for a few portraits.
Fireworks were set off over the river to lure the wedding guests from the tables to the dance floor and bar. Immediately afterwards, Franziska and Fred opened the dance floor with the first dance. The party was fueled by Celebrate in Style. There were also cool drinks from the bar and an incredibly delicious wedding cake. Finally, Franziska had to throw her bridal bouquet - by the way, a (plush) bird bouquet, no flowers. The warm Italian summer night progressed and with it the party mood on the pool terrace. At a later hour the band was replaced by a DJane from Berlin. Chanuska, aka DJ Lady Chan, got the night going and guests danced into the wee hours of the morning. To cool off, the bride and groom and their guests even jumped into the pool at night - the perfect end to an unforgettable day.
Absolutely! Franziska and Fred did everything right with their wedding in Tuscany - the choice of location, the restriction to the closest friends and family and the wonderful attitude of giving things their space and letting the mood on site work on you. With the love and support of their friends and family, they experienced a day full of happiness and unforgettable moments that will bind them together forever. We can unreservedly recommend a destination wedding in Tuscany.
Located just outside Florence, Villa la Massa was the perfect wedding location. The luxury hotel on the Arno offers excellent rooms and fantastic cuisine. The organization - from make-up to the wedding ceremony, the menu to the wedding cake - was taken care of by Helga Marcks, wedding planner at Wedding Italy. The band Celebrate in Style from Munich and the magical DJane Chanuska from Berlin provided the good sound and the right party atmosphere.
Perfect! We should talk!
