It all started at the stunning Abbey of San Giovanni in Venere. Believe me, this place is magic—perched on a hill, surrounded by olive trees, bathed in soft sunlight, and overlooking the sea. In particular it’s peaceful, so romantic, and honestly… it’s unforgettable.

Thanks to a soft, natural color palette—ivory, sand, and blush— the aesthetic felt warm, delicate, and above all effortlessly elegant. Not only, but also with beautiful contemporary touches. Personally I totally fell in love with the bride’s bouquet with lunaria. It’s delicate, unexpected, and it suited her perfectly.

Moreover, one of my favorite trends this year made its way into the details: mocha mousse tones for the stationery — those cozy shades that remind you of coffee, cocoa, and comfort. To add a pop of personality, rust was chosen as the main accent color for the floral design. So you’ve got something that’s both modern and warm, stylish but never over the top. Perfect for a modern wedding such as this one at Villa Estea on the Trabocchi Coast.

The reception took place at Villa Estea, a gorgeous venue overlooking the Trabocchi Coast. The view is insane! You get the sea, the breeze, the architecture, and a setup that feels effortlessly elegant. Not to mention, floral installations hanging above the dinner tables…next level!

Meanwhile, guests enjoyed incredible food, great company, and a sunset that felt like the perfect ending to a perfect day. As photographers, we were there for all of it—quiet moments, happy tears, soft smiles, wind in the bride’s hair… From the very beginning you could feel every photo was about capturing real feelings, without poses, without pressure—just the two of them, in their own rhythm.
