Manni and Carlos are from China however they decided to get marry in Tuscany for the sheer beauty of the landscape and its history. Wanting someone to not only capture their day, but also help with the decisions that gives an event a cohesive, stylish and sophisticated look, Manni enlisted the talented Chiara from Tuscan wedding planner WEDDINGS IN TUSCANY who helped the couple create a unique atmosphere and visual aesthetic for their wedding. They held the wedding at LA SUVERA, a boutique hotel surrounded by lush gardens and a splendid church, stables and farmhouse – all oozing with historic atmosphere and charm. They had the incredible TAYLOR & PORTER capture the beautiful celebration. It looks like the wedding day turned out just as amazing as Manni pictured in her mind.
