Wedding Ideas - Tuscany #2

Michelle + Brian both have Italian roots and love everything about the romantic culture. So when they were choosing a location for their big day, they decided there could really be no better place than an authentic Italian agriturismo, overlooking the beautiful rolling hills of Tuscany.

Well if this seaside Tuscany wedding isn't a mashup of a few tremendously gorgeous things, I don't know what is! Breathtaking Italian cathedral, check. Wonderfully elegant palette of ivory & light beige, check. Elevated nautical decor set along side pristine white beach beds & cabanas, check.

We've featured a few real weddings inspired by The Great Gatsby on the blog before, but this is perhaps the first one with a cameo from the man himself. Cinzia and Francesco got married in stunning grandeur and gorgeous style, with a roaring 1920s wedding in Tuscany.

Molly and Martin flew from Minneapolis in the US to marry in Italy's beautiful Tuscany region. They found their perfect wedding venue in Villa Vignamaggio, with sweeping views of the Tuscan countryside from almost every angle.

WWW readers Rebecca and Neil decided to marry in Italy in the hope of beautiful weather. They did indeed have a beautiful sun shining day at the romantic villa nestled in a hamlet in the Tuscan countryside. Their day was set outdoors, their ceremony was held in the gardens with the trees filled with ribbons followed by an open side marquee reception.

Today we are sharing a beautiful wedding from very sunny Tuscany, with a stunning scenery and a cheerful color scheme of blue and sunny yellow, which perfectly worked with the green backdrop of the Tuscan hills. The ceremony took place in a beautiful little church, Chiesa di San Lorenzo in a Galluzzo, near Florence in Tuscany.

Any week that starts off in Tuscany is going to be a good one. And today's destination wedding in Italy is easing us into our Monday very nicely indeed! German bride Meike & French groom Christoph, are a creative couple based in Munich, who chose the sun-soaked hillsides of Lucignano D'Asso for their beautiful bohemian wedding.

Imagine yourself in the middle of Tuscany, wearing an exquisite Alberta Ferretti gown, the love of your life on your arm, and your closest loved ones by your side. That's precisely what bride Karen envisioned for her wedding with beau Chris, and she invited Italian photographer Lelia Scarfiotti along to capture every precious moment.

Doesn't the idea of eloping in Tuscany sound glorious? If you're one of those couples who want to buck tradition, while still keeping things romantic, elegant, and most of all, chic, then this is the shoot for you.

Today's real wedding is one of those ones you just wish you were a guest at. (Shout out to any of my engaged friends, get married in Tuscany please!). Prosecco in the sunshine, jazz on the lawn, an al fresco dinner, and limoncello toasts into the evening, every detail of Emma & Mark's destination wedding in Italy sounds like a dream.

Do you guys remember Sati + Paul? Last fall we shared their stunning engagement photos (by Nordica Photography) which were captured in the breathtaking fjords of Norway. Dare we say their gorgeous winter Tuscan elopement, photographed this time by Lelia Scarfiotti Photography, was truly just as incredible!

We do love a little decadence here at Bridal Musings. Swanky surroundings, luxe decorations, rich hues, and abundant adornments - all of it makes for beautiful wedding inspiration. Which is why we've been fawning over this ornate Tuscan inspiration shoot by photographer, Olga Makarowa and event designer, Chiara Sernesi of Weddings in Tuscany.

We're off to Italy for today's real wedding, with a beautiful church ceremony in Capalbio, Tuscany and a fabulous poolside reception. Nancy & Nick are a couple from the US and UK respectively, and thought a destination wedding would be the perfect opportunity for their friends and family to get to know one another.

While a trip to Tuscany may not be in the budget right now, who says we can't enjoy its effortless aesthetic by way of a charming styled shoot? Starfish Studios, Oscar Herrera Vintage Floral Design, and Unearthed Vintage of Florida recently collaborated on this sunny shoot heavy on Italian inspiration and gorgeous ideas for you to ooh and ahh over.

Is it possible to plan a Tuscany wedding outside Italy? Today's shoot from Pure in Art Photography that took place in Tucson's Skyline Country Club, Arizona proves that it is. The venue has wonderful hillsides and wineries to show that are no less gorgeous than Florence's fields.
