Italian Wedding Inspiration with a Peach Tulle Wedding Dress – Editoriale Tenuta Bossi – Photo Santucci – Bridal Musings 7

Whimsical & dark, colorful & moody…this Italian wedding inspiration has the quirky likeness of Alice in Wonderland, yet in the color palette of Fall.

As though out of a fairytale, the scene is set at a stunning villa in Tuscany, against a moody Autumnal sky. Dressed in layers of peach tulle, our bride is a color queen, making her entrance in one of the wildest, ruffled & colorful Millia London wedding gowns.

With reception on the grounds & a meadow picnic (with ceremony cellist in tow) this whimsical wedding scene has our hearts fluttering for fanciful affairs. Photographed by one of our favorite Italian photographers by Stefano Santucci, let this editorial take you on a Fall Tuscan daydream…

From Stefano Santucci

The staging of this “eccentric” wedding is reminiscent of a party at the palace of Versailles, headed by a whimsical but sarcastic bride who echoes the famous Marie Antoinette in her movements and regal (and vaguely snobbish) bearing.

The whole setting is extremely polished and refined. From the choice of colors to the dessert table, from the peacock feather fan to the chic nic on the lawn, nothing is left to chance.

The wonderful and imposing Tenuta Bossi, immersed in the Tuscan countryside, has reigned serenely for centuries thanks to the skilled care of an ancient Florentine family: the Gondi. The fortune of the bloodline has its roots in the fifteenth century, when members of the family managed to spin gold together with silk, thus becoming high-lineage craftsmen and later bankers of great fame.

Around the villa, embellished and enlarged over the centuries, gentle hills planted with vines and boundless meadows unfold. A wonderful bamboo forest enriches the estate, giving it an exotic and unconventional touch.

A courageous choice is the one to completely replace the flowers on the table with decorative elements that are laborious to create, but of great scenic effect. Entirely handmade, the large colored spheres that decorate the table resemble hortensias. They are however colored paper petals which, once curled with style, give life to arranged spots of color that stand out elegantly on a table for a few close friends. The table setting is enriched with cut fruit and the place cards are colorful farm animals in a pop version!

Even the dress is a triumph of curled and voluminous tulle (by Millia London), as are the cakes that regard, in the decoration, the leitmotiv of the paper spheres.

Our bride, initially bored and detached, almost seems to be rejecting the young suitor, but then abandons all irony and lets herself fall languidly in the embrace of her beloved for a dutiful happy ending worthy of the most beautiful fairy tales!
