How Their Timeless Villa Orlando Wedding Came to Life

Our wedding in Tuscany perfectly blended timeless romance and enchanting beauty at Villa Orlando, a historic venue by a serene lake. The pastel colors added a touch of refined elegance, while the natural beauty of the Tuscan countryside created an organic and enchanting ambiance. Every detail, from the floral arrangements to the hanging chandeliers, contributed to the fairytale vibe. We chose our wedding venue because of its captivating historical charm, breathtaking lake view, and classic and elegant Victorian-style ambiance, perfectly matching the romantic atmosphere we envisioned for our special day.

A Teary-Eyed Groom Made the Perfect Birthday Present

The most unforgettable part of the wedding day was when I saw him at the altar, his eyes glistening with tears. At that moment, it dawned on me that my dreams had genuinely come true. And marrying him was the greatest birthday gift I could ever ask for.

Wedding Advice for a Calm and Collected Celebration

Our advice is to begin planning early. This means organizing things well ahead of time. Like finding the place you want, choosing the people who will help, and picking the dates. Doing this early gives you more choices and makes things less stressful.

A Wedding Day Full of Emotions and Heartfelt Moments 

What made our wedding special wasn’t just the beautiful decor and the picturesque setting but the profound emotions and genuine connections that filled the entire day. The tearful vows, heartfelt moments, and the overwhelming love and support from our friends created an atmosphere of warmth. These authentic moments are what we cherish most and will forever hold dear in our hearts.

How They Balanced Beauty and Budget for Their Villa Orlando Wedding

We decided to create a memorable celebration to ensure our wedding truly reflected our vision and values. Initially budgeted at 30k Euro, we realized that achieving our dream fairytale wedding within this limit wasn’t possible, so we increased the budget to 60k Euro, allocating 11k+ Euro for enchanting floral arrangements. This ensured that every element of our magical day could be as beautiful as we had imagined. However, we decided not to spend much on the cake.

A Victorian-Inspired Villa Orlando Wedding Look

My love for Victorian style inspired my wedding fashion, and I chose a stunning princess-style dress that was the most beautiful dress I had ever seen. Adorned with intricate lace and delicate brooches, the dress exuded elegance. I wore a long beaded veil with matching brooches to complement it, creating a romantic aura. My accessories, including an off-white brooch necklace, added sophistication, enhancing the overall Victorian aesthetic I admired. Opting for an elegant updo hairstyle, I aimed to draw attention to the beauty of my long beaded veil. Keeping my makeup fresh and natural, I wanted to enhance my natural beauty on this special day.

The Unforgettable Blend of Wedding and Birthday Bliss

During the celebration, they surprised me by singing the “Happy Birthday” song and presenting a beautifully adorned cake. This touching gesture turned my wedding day into the best birthday ever. Adding an extra layer of joy and meaning to the already special occasion.
