A Romantic Tuscan Reverie

YANTI & DANIEL

THEME AND DETAILS – Greenery + Lace

Straight out of a postcard, this wedding was the picture perfect dream. Filled with so much romance and subtle grandeur, everywhere was covered in lush greenery, ferns and trees, with the blush and pale pink flowers in the floral arch and bridal bouquet contrasting the deep green hues.

The bride’s wedding gown was made out of the most delicate and beautiful lace. Hand in hand with her new husband, she looked resplendent against the tall olive trees, and ecru stone walls and steps. All bathed in golden light, only minimal décor was needed, forMother Nature was more than enough.

CEREMONY

The newlyweds exchanged their vows beneath a floral arch in the shape of a waxing crescent moon, in the presence of only 60 family and friends. It was an intimate affair, which added to the magic. Further complementing the gorgeous colour palate was the deep navy on the bridesmaids; everything certainly came together beautifully.

Yanti: “As we were in beautiful Tuscany, we thought we would also like to incorporate some local culture, like the rice tossing at the end of the ceremony. It’s meant to symbolise rain, which is said to be a sign of prosperity, fertility and good fortune.”

Every minute of it was memorable: normally couples say they can't really remember most parts of the day as they were overwhelmed. But we're glad we were quite relaxed and enjoyed every part of it.

RECEPTION

To celebrate their nuptials, the couple wined and dined with their loved ones at long tables underneath the twilight sky. And what’s a celebration without cake? Opting for an Italian millefoglie (the Italian version of a French millefeuille) as their wedding cake, the newlyweds had a lot of fun doing the finishing layer in front of their guests, capping off the day and night with lots of dancing and merriment. What a soirée to remember, indeed!
