Giuseppe and Mariangela’s Wonderful Woodland Wedding in Italy by Franceco Caroli

Happy Monday everyone and welcome along to another exciting week on the blog! How was your weekend? Here in the UK it was our first weekend in our next stage of lockdown easing and I have to say we really did make the most of it! We did playcentres, soft play, the cinema, swimming and lunch out. It really does feel amazing to be out and about again and actually being allowed to be inside, which is just as well as the weather is more like November than May at the moment! How are your wedding plans coming along? I would love to hear your plans in our Facebook group, with over 3K members it is a great place to meet and chat with other brides and grooms. On with today’s wedding and it’s a stunning day. A woodland wedding in Italy with THE most stunning curving table that runs through the whole of the woodland venue. A swinging sofa makes the perfect area for photos and the fairy lights are just gorgeous as the day turns to dusk. Giuseppe and Mariangela held the most beautiful wedding, all captured by Franceco Caroli.

Fantastic, wonderful and above all with the theme we wanted. We wanted something rustic and out of the classic canons.

Giuseppe and Mariangela were married on 31st June 2020 at Tenuta Tresca (Botrugno) Lecce in Italy. ‘We decided to get married because we wanted to crown our dream of love. We had been engaged for many years and it was time We had 50 guests and thanks to my wedding planner it took about 4 months to plan.’

How they met
We met by chance. We were in a group of friends and the spark immediately struck. We have been together for about 10 years.

How did you allocate your budget?
Together with my wedding planner we decided to spare no expense, the important thing that I was able to organize the wedding according to my tastes. My dream was to get married in the woods.

Where did you splurge and where did you save?
I spent on the location, a very important photographer and clothes.

How did you choose your photographer?
I chose it by doing a thorough online search. I was looking for something natural with the reportage style. We are really satisfied with the choice made and the photos are magical.
