A Stunning Venue Overlooking Florence
Villa San Michele, a five-star hotel nestled in the picturesque hills of Florence, offers a breathtaking view of the city and its iconic skyline. This historic villa, originally a 15th-century Franciscan monastery, combines luxury with rich heritage, creating an enchanting atmosphere perfect for a dream wedding. Surrounded by lush gardens and fragrant rose bushes, Villa San Michele provides an idyllic setting for couples seeking a romantic and elegant celebration in Tuscany.
A Memorable Wedding Day
In early September, the villa is alive with excitement as guests arrive for a sophisticated black-tie wedding. The ladies are dressed in elegant black gowns, while the groom stands out in a striking velvet dinner jacket. The bride glows in a lovely light flowy dress that captures the essence of romance.
A Beautiful Ceremony in the Rose Garden
The ceremony takes place in the villa’s enchanting rose garden on the upper terrace, where guests are treated to stunning views of Florence. As the couple exchanges heartfelt vows surrounded by blooming roses and their loved ones, the atmosphere is filled with joy and love.
Drinks in the Lower Garden
Following the ceremony, guests descend to the lower garden for a delightful drinks reception. Here, they enjoy refreshing cocktails while mingling and soaking in the beauty of their surroundings. The combination of laughter, clinking glasses, and the backdrop of Florence creates a magical ambiance.
Picture-Perfect Moments
After the reception, we capture family photos with the breathtaking cityscape of Florence in the background. The golden hour provides a perfect opportunity for couple portraits at sunset, allowing for intimate moments that reflect their love story against a stunning backdrop.
A Romantic Dinner Under String Lights
As evening approaches, guests gather for dinner at a beautifully arranged U-shaped table adorned with twinkling string lights. The elegant setup adds to the romantic atmosphere as guests savor a carefully curated menu featuring local Tuscan cuisine.
Heartfelt Speeches and Dancing
After dinner, heartfelt speeches fill the air with laughter and emotion, celebrating the couple’s journey together.
