Tuscan rehearsal: Olga + Sende
Weddings that span over a weekend are always so fun to share on the blog. Weddings that span over three days and take place in Italy? Well, we make two-parters out of them, close our eyes and pretend we were guests. Together with the charmingly adorable couple, the ladies at Chic Weddings helped to design a very soft, intimate, romantic and elegant party in a hip wine resort retreat in Maremma, the wildest part of Tuscany with a fabulous view. It’s all quite magical. Olga + Sende traveled from Moscow, invited their closest friends and family for a countryside barbecue at Tenuta il Sassone on Friday (celebrating Sende’s birthday), dressed in one of the most unique and memorable Vera Wang gowns for the wedding reception at Tenuta San Bonifacio, and continued the memories on a beach trip to Castiglione della Pescaia on Sunday. Whew – that’s how you do an Italian destination wedding!
You’re going to die when you see the Vera Wang dress Olga wore! It’s coming up soon!
