Hannah + Valerio’s botanical and boho greenhouse wedding surrounded by vineyards was truly unique.
They hosted their wedding at Casa Campovecchio, an authentic Italian farmhouse just 20 minutes outside of Rome. With meadows, vineyards and olive groves as a backdrop this day was surrounded by nature and styled to perfection by wedding planning members Parade Weddings.
We love their colourful and abundant blooms, the unique style of the industrial yet botanical greenhouse and Hannah’s stunning Grace Loves Lace gown.
Hannah + Valerio have shared some fab tips and advice with us from their experience planning a destination wedding in Italy. Read on for their words of wisdom and some gorgeous boho-chic wedding inspo.
PERSONAL TOUCHES -
Hannah says, “we had the opportunity to put together our own ceremony without any restrictions. We decided to have both our mothers as celebrants, which made the ceremony even more special and personal to us.”
THE STYLING -
Hannah says, “the venue had a relaxed elegance which maximised the natural beauty of its surroundings. We wanted the flowers to complement this and to be colourful and warm; we had a combination of local flowers and South African proteas to represent both our cultures.”
FAVE MOMENT -
Hannah says, “my mom and sister sang a rendition of Que Sera Sera and all the guests joined in; it was a great moment where we really felt all our loved ones from all over the world were together in this special moment with us.”
BEST ADVICE -
Hannah says, “if you have limited experience in event-planning, it can be quite overwhelming to have your first one be the biggest one of your life. I think it’s really important to find someone that you trust to guide you through the process (especially if its a destination wedding). Having Giorgia and Anna as our wedding planners was invaluable for us and actually made us really enjoy the planning process!”
FAVE MOMENT ~
Wedding planners Giorgia + Anna said, “we surprised Hannah + Valerio with smoke bombs for their sunset portraits and we absolutely love these images.”
