The destination wedding in Tuscany of Svetlana and Vassily was a great gala-day not only for the newly-wed and the guests, but also for us, as photographers. The young couple is full of energy, very positively-minded, with a wonderful sense of humour and they have been sharing their high spirits with us all throughout the wedding day.

The party was very nicely topped up with little smart details, various funny competitions for the guests and the picturesque locations that were a bright background of a beautiful event held by beautiful hosts and guests.

The preparations for the wedding and the party took place at a very hideaway, cozy and homelike Villa Catignano, and the ceremony at the gorgeous hall of Palazzo Pubblico, in the very heart of Siena. The stroll and the couple photo session – in the ancient little towns of San Gimignano and Monteriggioni. The latter was celebrating a medieval fancy-dress holiday and we have discovered the medieval homeware of our ancestors with great pleasure.

How can one put together the Venetian carnival, a medieval holiday and the famous and particular beauties of Chianti hills? Here you’ll see it, the workshop was offered by our newly-wed!
