Talia & Stephan, May 2012, Florence

“We found the service of Olive in Love both professional and friendly. They understood exactly what we wanted and helped us to achieve our perfect wedding day. They knew all the right contacts and were able to provide us with a variety of options to choose from. We would definitely recommend Pia and Michele to our friends and have enjoyed keeping in touch with them two years on from our wedding day.”

Great Beauty in Florence 

Talia and Stefan’s wedding  had glamor, style and almost opera like Italian drama over it, aesthetically  speaking. The wedding was a great beauty in Florence. The couple was  looking for a historical venue, frescoed ceilings and grand spaces, and it was important for them to give their guests also a cultural and artistic experience, worth making the long trip all the way from South Africa, Singapore and Australia. On the wedding day  the guests got to witness the wedding ceremony in a beautiful old monastery in Florence, and spend the evening in one of the most important Florentine villas, Villa Maiano, where Queen Victoria and Sir John Templar have stayed. The villa was used as location in the prize winning english film, “Room with a view”, based on a novel by E.M. Forster. Wedding reception was set up in villa gardens, dinner in the magnificent ballroom, dancing in the old carriage room. Talia & Stefan’s day was a wonderful celebration, and a great beauty in Florence. The wedding was documented by florentine wedding photographer David Bastianoni.
