Grace and Marco, united by their shared passion for travel, have journeyed together across the globe since they became inseparable. Their adventures led them to a memorable proposal in 2021 on the scenic heights of Machu Picchu, Peru. When choosing a wedding venue, Grace, hailing from the United States, suggested a destination wedding in Marco’s home country of Mexico. However, Marco had an unexpected twist in mind — Italy! To Grace’s surprise, his whimsical retort, “Why not?” sealed their fate. The couple decided to exchange vows in a country they had yet to explore, making Italy the perfect backdrop for their dream wedding.

Grace and Marco entrusted the planning of their dream wedding to RoRas Destination Wedding. Every event element was carefully curated to reflect the couple’s individual tastes and shared vision of an elegant and memorable celebration. From the scenic location in the Tuscan hills to the sophisticated decor and the seamless flow of the day, RoRas Destination Wedding & Events proved instrumental in bringing the couple’s dream wedding to life. This careful planning allowed Grace and Marco to relax and fully immerse themselves in the joy and love of their special day, confident that their wedding dreams were being realized to the fullest.

The wedding took place in the breathtaking region of Tuscany, specifically in the historic city of Florence. Grace and Marco meticulously planned their wedding over a year, creating an intimate gathering for close friends and family members. Their choice of a romantic setting in the Tuscan hills showcased their love for unique destinations and their desire to provide an unforgettable experience for their guests.

Grace exuded an air of elegance and romantic grace on her wedding day. She chose a strapless mermaid-style gown that flawlessly accentuated her silhouette, highlighting her natural beauty with its smooth lines and understated design. The look was completed with a pair of Badgley Mischka shoes adorned with an original floral print.

Her hair was styled in soft waves, enhancing her features with sophistication, while her light makeup emphasized her lovely facial traits, creating a gentle radiance. Grace held a delicate bouquet of pastel-toned flowers tied with flowing ribbons, adding a touch of romantic softness to her ensemble.

Marco complemented her perfectly with a custom suit that subtly included his name on the fabric. The groomsmen were uniformly dressed in black suits, adding a classic touch to the wedding’s stylish flair.

A particularly touching moment of Grace and Marco’s wedding was the first look when Marco saw Grace in her wedding dress for the first time. This cherished tradition, where the groom sees the bride before the ceremony, provides a deeply personal and intimate moment for the couple. Marco’s reaction was one of sheer joy and admiration, a sentiment vividly captured in the photographs of this beautiful instant.

The vision for the wedding was inspired by the luxurious Italian style, reminiscent of a classic movie set against rolling hills and historical elegance. The ceremony took place in front of an ancient fountain at the historic venue, surrounded by luxurious floral arrangements. The color peach dominated the palette, adding a soft, romantic glow to the event. This choice of color was inspired by the picturesque Tuscan landscape and the couple’s desire for a chic, stylish celebration.

Grace and Marco’s wedding ceremony was enveloped in an atmosphere of heartfelt emotion and love, making it an exceptionally moving part of their special day. Looking radiant and joyful, Grace walked down the aisle with her father. The couple exchanged vows that were not only personal but also deeply touching, resonating with all who were present. Adding to the ambiance of romance and solemnity, the ceremony featured live music performed by talented violinists. The violins’ soft strains enhanced the ceremony’s emotional depth, creating a beautiful, timeless backdrop.

A surprise storm nearly disrupted the ceremony, but the quick actions of the event team, RoRas Destination Wedding, ensured that the celebration continued without a hitch under the open skies post-storm.

After the touching ceremony, photographer Martina Botti captured the newlyweds’ happiness. As Grace and Marco entered their new life together, Martina crafted stunning portraits reflecting their relationship’s joy and depth.

A long table, placed amidst the lush greenery of an ancient villa’s garden and bathed in the warm light of crystal chandeliers, created an atmosphere of refined elegance and luxury. Floral arrangements in soft whites and peach tones added tenderness, while candles contributed a glowing romance.

The reception was set along the main path of the villa, creating a magical atmosphere for the dinner. Instead of a traditional cake, the couple opted for a champagne tower, enhancing the glamour of the evening.

The first dance of newlyweds Grace and Marco was undoubtedly a highlight of their wedding reception, capturing the hearts of everyone present. At a breathtaking moment, Marco lifted Grace into the air, spinning and adding to the magic of this moment. Golden confetti rained down on the couple, shimmering in the light as it fell.

As the evening progressed, the formalities of Grace and Marco’s wedding day led to a vibrant celebration of dance and joy. The atmosphere seamlessly transitioned from the romantic elegance of the first dance to a lively party atmosphere that captivated every guest.
