Benedetta and Alessio's Super Glam 'Country Chic' Tuscany Wedding Held at Home by Enzo Miccio

Yay for Friday! Even though we can’t go anywhere I am so looking forward to the weekend! This has been the first week lock down and homeschooling Dexter while trying to run the blog. I have to say it’s been a challenge! I would love to know how you are getting on? are you in the same situation? are you currently homeschooling your child? How are you finding it? So at the weekend there will be no school books. Instead we have Saturday morning film club, baking, car washing, hopefully a walk in our local woods and generally having a lovely time as a family the best we can. How are you managing?
To finish off the week in style I have this rather glam wedding from Tuscany. It’s the wedding of Benedetta and Alessio and it has been sent in by their wedding planner Enzo Miccio. The wedding is filled with the most breathtaking decoration from the ceremony right through to every aspect of their reception. The flowers, the cake, the sweetie table, the lighting, furniture, it all looks amazing!
