Vivian & Ian – May 3rd, 2024

A Vivienne Westwood-inspired wedding at villa medicea di lilliano

A warm spring afternoon in Tuscany, a breathtaking Vivienne Westwood gown, and a photographer with an incredible eye for fashion—this wedding was an absolute dream, and we can’t get enough of it! Captured beautifully by our talented Valeria, Vivian and Ian’s intimate celebration was absolutely spectacular.

Their journey to the altar was quite an adventure in itself. Initially, they had planned to get married in the U.S., but their hearts were drawn to Italy’s undeniable romance. They considered an intimate elopement, just the two of them, and set their wedding venue as Villa Medicea di Lilliano, a stunning historic estate just outside of Florence. The best part? Their closest family members followed them across the ocean, turning their wedding day into a deeply personal, unforgettable experience.

Vivian has an impeccable sense of style, and her love for fashion played a huge role in the overall aesthetic of the day. She fell head over heels for her Vivienne Westwood bridal gown—an absolute masterpiece of elegance and structure—and went through every possible hurdle to make sure it was hers. And honestly? It was sooo worth it. She looked absolutely radiant, exuding a timeless yet modern allure that set the tone for the entire wedding.

We made sure that every detail embraced her fashion-forward vision, from carefully choosing the light scenarios to the dynamic editorial-style portraits. Whether illuminated by harsh flash for a bold, high-fashion feel or bathed in soft, diffused light, the photographs turned out breathtaking: each one capturing the essence of the couple’s unique style and undeniable chemistry.

The wedding ceremony was held in the picturesque gardens of Villa Medicea di Lilliano, where history and Tuscan charm rule the atmosphere. The weather had been unpredictable throughout the day, shifting between clouds and sun and rain, but as if on cue, the skies cleared just in time for Vivian and Ian to exchange their vows. The golden light filtering through the trees added an extra layer of magic to an already emotional moment, making it a scene straight out of a dream.

From start to finish, this wedding was the perfect blend of fashion, romance, and the timeless beauty of Tuscany. An intimate celebration that felt both chic and deeply personal, proving once again that sometimes, the best wedding plans are the ones that evolve into something even more extraordinary.
