The Location & Vision
The team wanted to embrace this year’s trends—bows, structured fabrics, and elegant draping—incorporating these elements into every aspect, from the graphic design to wedding looks. The entire shoot was set at the breathtaking Villa Giovanelli Colonna, regarded as one of the most beautiful late 17th-century residences in Veneto.

Paired with minimalist yet glamorous jewelry from Poliero, the look exuded understated luxury. Her hair, styled by Bridal Makeup Venice, was swept back in soft waves, enhancing her beauty and perfectly complementing the simplicity and grace of the overall ensemble.
The groom wore a classic black tuxedo by Ca’ dei Sarti, perfectly tailored to fit his form, complemented by a white shirt. A Rolex watch on his wrist was the ultimate accessory, combining luxury with understated class.
