Valentina and Raffaele’s Convento dell’Annunciata wedding in the Italian countryside was truly a fairytale come true. The historic venue set a breathtaking stage for their big day, complemented by enchanting floral arrangements and classic fashion selections. Their joyous celebration beautifully embodied the essence of love and charm, leaving a lasting impression on everyone present. It was everything they had envisioned and more: a day filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories.

Later, in their courtyard reception, they celebrated under twinkling floral chandeliers, with elegant tables set for their guests. It was a day where nature and romance intertwined, creating a magical atmosphere.

Above all the beauty of their special day, the most precious gift was sharing it with their loved ones, especially their little girl by their side.

How They Navigated Convento dell’Annunciata Wedding Wardrobe Decisions

I’ve always been a fan of Nicole Milano’s clothing, so I clearly knew what I wanted to wear. Finding the right style for my husband was more challenging, but in the end, he discovered his perfect look with Italian designer Gabriele Pasini. As for our shoes, we trusted Balenciaga for my husband and Amina Muaddi for me.

Sharing The Convento dell’Annunciata Wedding Day With Their Daughter

The civil ceremony was short but sweet. We added our own personal vows, which made it truly beautiful. Our daughter, Gilda, was supposed to carry the wedding rings but fell asleep, which was a cute little mishap. The best part of the day was being surrounded by all our loved ones, especially having our little girl with us. It was the greatest gift we could ask for.
