ABOUT THE WEDDING

Nestled in the heart of Florence, Belmond Villa San Michele offers a stunning setting for unforgettable destination weddings. We recently had the privilege to photograph the details of a breathtaking 4-day celebration at this iconic venue. From the magical welcome dinner surrounded by the villa’s rich history to the rolling hills of Tuscany framing every moment, it was a true dream come true. With its timeless elegance and Italian charm, Belmond Villa San Michele is the perfect backdrop for your wedding story—and we’re here to capture every detail.


Belmond Villa San Michele, perched in the hills overlooking Florence, is a masterpiece of romance and history. Originally a 15th-century monastery, its charming facade and lush gardens create a serene yet luxurious atmosphere, making it one of Tuscany’s most sought-after wedding venues. For couples dreaming of a destination wedding infused with Italian elegance, this venue promises unforgettable moments—and we’re here to make sure they’re captured forever.

During our recent work at this stunning villa, we were honored to photograph a 4-day wedding that epitomized luxury and romance. The celebration began with a magical welcome dinner where guests dined under candlelight in the villa’s garden, surrounded by lush florals and breathtaking views of Florence. The attention to detail in every corner—from the perfectly set tables to the villa’s warm glow at sunset—set the tone for a celebration filled with love and beauty.

As photographers, we understand the importance of capturing not only the grand moments but also the quiet, emotional ones that define a wedding. At Belmond Villa San Michele, every angle tells a story, whether it’s the bride’s graceful walk through the villa’s arched corridors, the laughter shared in the gardens, or the unforgettable backdrop of the Tuscan hills.

If you’re planning your wedding at Belmond Villa San Michele, we’d love to bring your story to life with timeless, luminous photography that reflects the beauty of your special day.
