Doireann&Patrick - their special place in Val d'Orcia
I'm so happy to share with you another unforgettable summer memory, Doireann and Patrick's glorious, sunny, cheerful and laid back wedding!
They wished to lighten up the classic idea of a wedding party, focusing on good food and magic backdrops, with special attention given to seasonal flower decorations and local wine!Their special day had an authentically wholesome vibe. Just looking at these beautiful photographs by Medisproject, you get the sense that their day was true to them!
A good morning in Val d'Orcia - getting ready and Doireann's bouquet
Every bouquet from the garden is like a child for me, and it's very much beloved.
I've personally seeded and planted all the flowers that grow in the garden. I've taken care of them for months before finally cutting them to use for a wedding.
Their beauty is a constant source of wonder and sometimes the final result is so natural, and even unexpected!
Doireann allowed me complete freedom with designing her bouquet, so I let the garden choose for her.
Acid green from ammi visnaga (an indigenous plant that grows in Val d'Orcia), oak leaves and silvery senecio, lavender and purple achillia, zinnias and dahlias, with their full-bodied bloom!

Tiramisù cake
If you're a fan of Italian food, what could be more iconic than a Tiramisù wedding cake? Definitely one of my favourite home-made wedding cakes!
