Welcome to a dreamy and utterly romantic Tuscany elopement editorial set at Castello di Velona.
What I love most about this elopement ideas shoot is how the team focused on not creating perfection, but it was about it being about the couple. I really love this approach to wedding planning, because it immediately cuts out unnecessary stress and brings a focus to what really matters. The union of two soul mates in a beautiful ceremony.
And what a beautiful ceremony it was. With far-reaching views, gorgeous flowers and of course, a lot of love. Just wait until you see the reception, complete with flower installation, modern decor and golden light. Oh my.
Serena Genovese thank you so much for sharing these mesmerising images today, what a treat it is to be able to enjoy.
















































The love of Elisa and Philippe found its ideal setting in this amazing castle in Tuscany: Castello di Velona.
A castle surrounded by sinuous and green hills, illuminated at all times of the day by the sun.
The desire of our couple was to express their modern romanticism enhanced by the breadth of Tuscan landscapes.
The location gave us infinite views and we chose to enhance its beauty by accompanying the colours it already offered us: delicate shades of blue to recall the sky, shades of green in honour of the hills, and white as a symbol of essentiality and purity of love.
During their ceremony, celebrated in the avenue of the castle, Elisa and Philippe sent us the message that marriage for them is a stage in their journey together towards an eternal and peaceful union as the cypresses and olive trees symbolize on the sides of the avenue.
A love heated by the sun that creates plays of light with the setting of the table deliberately exposed to the light summer breeze.
Small golden details that play with the reflections of the sun between the flowers and the glasses, illuminate the table waiting to light the evening candles.
We followed the natural course of the day, allowing the sun to welcome and warm us at the same time; like the emotions of this refined and essential wedding lived to the rhythms of the Tuscan landscape.
