Elegant wedding at Villa Valentini Bonaparte
Elegant wedding at Villa Valentini Bonaparte
This charming couple was looking for a precious and classy villa, nestled in the hills, but with a french twist, due to the groom being French.
Of all the villas we visited together what stood out of this venue was the level of attention to detail and overall style and vibe that was the perfect backdrop for this purpose.
It was immediately clear to them that they wanted to have their Elegant wedding at Villa Valentini Bonaparte.
This Villa is a luxury and exclusive venue with on site accommodation located in between Tuscany and Umbria, with enchanting gardens and views, as well as a top quality and discrete concierge service.
They were both keen on finding a place that felt genuine enough, but also well refined, with a breathtaking view and enough space to accommodate most guests and this villa ticked out all their requirements.
Villa Valentini Bonaparte position allows an almost 360 view on the surrounding hills, where the sun sets creating vibrant colors in the sky.
The other important factor in choosing this villa as their wedding location was the plan B option, the Orangerie, that allows an indoor set up without feeling too locked up, as it offers a clear structure immersed in the garden and surrounded by trees.
Mathieu and Fiona have exquisite taste and very clear ideas for their Elegant wedding at Villa Valentini Bonaparte.
It was their dream to have a starry fairy light sky, and include some detail that felt somehow french inspired.
Not only the villa structure helped a lot with that, being already elegant and well refined, but all the choices that the couple made were focused on that.
The color palette, the mise en place and every minor detail were taken into account. The groom opted for a cream tuxedo and shiny Christian Louboutin shoes, while the gorgeous bride went for a classic shaped embroidered dress, that perfectly suited her figure, and a medium long veil that made her entrance by the stairway even more iconic.
She also decided to change her hair look after the ceremony, by Giulia Cresci, the hair & makeup artist she chose for her Elegant wedding at Villa Valentini Bonaparte.
Mathieu’s mom is so talented that she gifted them a custom watercolor stationery set, including a villa facade drawing that was the perfect anticipation of an Elegant wedding at Villa Valentini Bonaparte.
They also cared a lot about the entertainment, so they chose a very specific jazz band, with a female voice, that was able to play a jazz version of some of the most beautiful contemporary song, and this choice was perfectly in tune with this Elegant wedding at Villa Valentini Bonaparte.
The dinner took place in a light tunnel that felt like a dream.
The mise en place was classic, but made interesting and chic by gold touches and sleek designs.
Guests welcomed the couple with the typical French napkins swing, where all the guests wave napkins in the air to the rhythm of music.
The dish choice was of course mainly Italian, but still with some French twists, like the duck breasts prepared by Preludio catering.
The cake cut of this Elegant wedding at Villa Valentini Bonaparte was outdoor, in the back side of the villa, in the middle of the dance-floor to be ready to start dancing right away.
For this reason the bride opted for a quick dress change before the cake, to allow a more comfortable and fun dancing.
Three of the couple DJ friends were in charge of the keeping the dance-floor alive, and also the groom had his unforgettable DJ set moment.
Champagne and cocktail were served by the dance floor as the guests of this Elegant wedding at Villa Valentini Bonaparte kept dancing until late.
The day after this Elegant wedding at Villa Valentini Bonaparte the couple opted for an informal and relaxed, but still charming, brunch by the pool.
Elisabetta Riccio with her polished yet natural photos and Vika and Paramonova video team had fun with the couple for portraits, despite the challenging weather.
