Italian Seaside Engagement Session

Confession time.  I love weddings, but there’s one thing I love more, and that’s travel.  So the moment I set eyes on Carolyn and Robert’s gorgeous destination wedding in Tuscany, I was smitten.  Clara Boatto of Chic Weddings in Italy worked with the couple to create an elegant wedding weekend for their guests coming to […]

We are are simply in love with this stunning Italian wedding from Cinzia Bruschini! As if the country alone isn’t romantic enough, the beautiful setting of Fattoria Casamora combined with lush and lovely florals from Jardin Divers takes this gorgeous affair over the top. We can’t get enough of the flower hair wreaths adorning bridesmaids […]

We’re simply swooning over Anne and Richard’s Italian destination wedding! The Irish couple’s plan was for guests to escape for a weekend of sun and celebration. The rolling Tuscan hills surrounding Borgo Lucignanello proved the perfect locale for the affair. Classic sophistication was the rule for attire, with Anne choosing a gorgeous Suzanne Neville gown and Richard […]

We are utterly, completely, totally over the moon for Wes and Jamie’s fabulous engagement session in Bali!

Although we don’t feature a ton of engagement shoots, this one was way too cute not to share! Tauren and Chris’ shoot was designed to show the seasons of their relationship and to ask their loved ones to join them in the next season of their lives. How sweet is that? They sipped lattes outside for the […]

Simple, sweet, and beautiful, Anouk and Martin’s destination wedding was held at the Sextantio Albergo Diffuso in the secluded mountain village of Santo Stefano di Sessanio in Abruzzo, Italy.  The couple live in the Netherlands and chose this lovely location full of cobbled lanes and stairs, with homes in the abandoned hamlet that have been […]

Sometimes posts need few words, because the images alone are able tell the story. That’s the case for me with the wonderful Leo Patrone’s work, and Helen and Ross’s wedding is no exception. Their gorgeous destination wedding in Umbria, Italy is one of my favorites of the year, and I trust you’ll agree after immersing yourself in Leo’s […]

If there was one wedding during 2010 that I wish I could transport myself into, it would be Lia and Rob’s elegant Tuscany affair.  Their timeless wedding, photographed by the amazingly talented Vania and Christine of Simply Bloom Photography, is elegant, understated, and full of love and beauty.   And now, I’m going to let the […]

Lera and Nick hail from Manchester but chose to celebrate with friends and family from around the world in Tuscany at the gorgeous Poggio Piglia. The villa, with its breathtaking views of olive groves and the Tuscan hills, provided a perfect setting. The ceremony was held overlooking the countryside and officiated by one of the […]

Laura and Stephen, both physicians living in London, couldn’t think of anywhere more romantic to be married than the picturesque rolling hills of Tuscany. The couple selected Villa Medicea di Lilliano just outside of Florence—a working vineyard—for their destination wedding, and 100 of their nearest and dearest made the journey to Italy to celebrate! The feel of […]

There may be no more picturesque setting for Elinor and Adam’s romantic destination wedding than Tuscany’s Villa Di Corliano. The faded grandeur, trailing greenery, orange and lemon trees, and beautiful landscape made the most lovely backdrop for the June nuptials. The couple planned their wedding themselves, and enlisted Franci’s Flowers Florence to create elegant arrangements for ceremony and […]

Oh how our hearts go pitter-patter when dreaming of a destination wedding in Tuscany! Kathy and Rondu’s wedding at Castello Vicchiomaggio, in the Tuscan winery zone of Chianti, was the perfect mix of fun, love, and touching moments. Italy holds a special place in their hearts—they spent their first vacation there together—so it was only natural […]

Every single moment of Andreas and Victoria’s wedding is lovely. With the breathtaking Adriatic Sea mixed with the elaborate white limestone architecture, it’s easy to see why the couple fell in love with Puglia, the southeastern region of Italy. Victoria and Andreas are both from Dubai and are avid travelers, so a destination wedding perfectly fit […]

Once in a while, a wedding comes that is so sublimely stunning that my breath catches and my heart skips a beat. Silvia and Henning’s wedding at Masseria Potenti is just so. The Manduria resort is ever so lovely, an Italian oasis that was the perfect setting for the couple’s sophisticated, modern wedding. The couple worked with Chic Weddings […]

Olga’s family is from Russia, and Tristan’s is from the UK. They previously lived in Switzerland and currently make their home in Australia. It was only natural that they gather their nearest and dearest, who are scattered throughout the world, for a destination wedding. They selected the picturesque Relais Sant’Uffizio in Piedmont, Italy, and planned a 3-day […]

We’re pretty sure there’s nothing more romantic than an Italian destination wedding, and we are just undone over Kelli and Gabriel’s event at Villa Cicolina in Montepulciano, Italy!

Dreamy is the first word that comes to mind when looking at these lovely beach engagement photos!
