A RAINY WEDDING IN FLORENCE AT DIMORA GHIRLANDAIO

WEDDINGS

As a wedding photographer who travels often, few settings are as enchanting as Florence. A few weddings prove that magic more than this one at Dimora Ghirlandaio. Across three days of events, Amelia and Ethan embraced every moment, rain and all. Their commitment to embracing it all created an unforgettable story of love, presence, and celebration in Tuscany.

The festivities began with a welcome party on the property, where guests gathered and toasted to the adventure ahead. The following evening, a refined rehearsal dinner. This brought everyone together once again, blending the intimacy of family with the excitement of friends traveling in from around the world. Hosting all events at Dimora Ghirlandaio allowed the couple and their guests to fully immerse in the beauty of Florence. For three days, everyone celebrated without ever leaving the private villa.

On the wedding day, the skies opened and a soft rain fell. Instead of retreating indoors, the couple chose to continue with their outdoor ceremony. Guests pulled out umbrellas and laughed through the rain, a moment that felt straight out of a film. There was something undeniably romantic about hearing vows spoken against the Tuscan hills, being surrounded by olive groves and rainfall.

Amelia wore a custom lace wedding gown, timeless and delicate, perfectly suited to the old-world beauty of Florence. As the rain soaked the grounds and the day unfolded, it became clear: this was a wedding about joy, connection, and the unshakable spirit of celebration.

For anyone dreaming of an Italy wedding — whether in Florence, Tuscany, or beyond — this day is proof that the weather only adds to the story. A rainy wedding in Florence isn’t something to fear. It’s an opportunity for authentic, cinematic moments that are impossible to stage.

If you’re planning a wedding in Italy and looking for a photographer who can capture both the grandeur and the quiet in-between details, I’d love to document your story!

Before we go any further, I want to highlight the vendor team who made this day happen.
