Rachel and Patrick’s wedding day at Dievole Wine Resort was an Italian dream. right in the heart of the Chianti classico Wine Region, set against the rolling vineyards, there is Dievole Wine Resort, a truly iconic Tuscany wedding venue. Surrounded by olive groves, cypress trees, and golden Tuscan light, their destination wedding captured everything that makes Tuscany so timeless, from the romantic sunsets, to the architectural history of the buildings and effortless beauty of the countryside. From the quiet morning moments to the candlelit evening celebrations, the atmosphere felt intimate, warm, and deeply personal.
“Dievole Wine Resort is one of the most beautiful
wedding venues in tuscany”
from the lovely italian inspired welcome dinner that included a stone fired heart shaped pizza, a live local band under string lights to the beautiful wedding day, Wedding in Wonderland made sure their destination wedding day had a refined elegance in the decor alongside the relaxed Italian charm. I do always feel like hiring a local planner, like the team at Wedding in Wonderland, is a great way to not have any language or cultural barriers on your wedding day, so all of the suppliers can work together seamlessly, from those traveling from out of the country to the local staff. The talented team at Le Petit Jardin created floral arrangements that complimented the Tuscan landscape, soft, organic blooms with a natural elegance that complemented the stone architecture and vineyard views of Dievole perfectly. The outdoor ceremony had two larger floral installations that looked over the Dievole vineyards and the outdoor reception had beautiful natural floral arrangements on the long connected table filled with candles and over arching lanterns.
Rachel’s bridal look was nothing short of breathtaking. She wore a gown by Kate Halfpenny of Halfpenny London, paired with a beautifully flowing designer wedding veil by Kate Halfpenny that caught the Tuscan breeze just right. it truly felt like a film when we strolled around for portraits with it flowing behind her. Her look was completed with Jimmy Choo bridal shoes and timeless Celine bridal jewellery. her incredibly talented Hair and make up artist were her friends from london, whome she had worked with many times on production shoots. Hair stylist Tommy Taylor and make up artist Mattie White created a look that felt iconic yet really natural, allowing Rachel’s beauty to shine effortlessly on such a memorable day for her. It’s so important for your getting ready team to be on the same page as you beforehand, and also just loving their personalities is a solid thing as well, as they will really be there to set the tone of the rest of your wedding day with their chat and making you feel relaxing and excited for the wedding day ahead.

stunning designer, halfpenny london”
Patrick looked equally refined in a tailored suit by Fielding and Nicholson, styled with classic Christian Louboutin shoes for a modern, sophisticated and red bottomed finish. As guests gathered for the ceremony overlooking the Chianti hills with their glasses of Dievole wine in hand, live string musicians curated by Chiara Trallori Music Planner set the tone with elegant, emotive sounds. The cocktail hour was in the courtyard of Dievole Wine Resort and this is when the bride, groom, bridal party and a few family members were able to step away for a few images and then head back to enjoy the wine and spread of italian hors d'oeuvres with their loved ones.
Just as sunset was about to take place, the wedding guests were called over to have dinner at their long dining table outside under the trees in the back garden of Dievole Wine Resort. Speeches were made, a delicious dinner was served (I wish meat was more romantic to talk about, but it was honestly just so good and the bride and groom had a whole mound of it!) It also rained during dinner, but that only made the night feel more magical and unforgettable. You know what they say, that “it’s good luck if it rains on your wedding day.” The wedding planning team and wedding staff really went with the flow and had umbrellas for everyone, which everyone seemed to really enjoy the umbrella overhangs. After the cake cutting, to end the night, The Gloves Band brought energy and italian party vibes to the evening, filling the night with dancing, surprise confetti, pulling guests up to sing, dance competitions and endless memories.
it was genuinely a joy to capture this Destination Wedding day at Dievole Wine Resort. When the trust is there, the day really is such a beautiful memory for me as well! And it was also a great time working Alongside, Liam of Soby Films, who filmed the entire day on film. Rachel and patrick’s wedding day at Dievole Wine Resort was truly a tuscan vibe and is definitely a destination wedding to be remembered for years to come. x
