Borgo Ognissanti, 42, 50123 Firenze FI, Italy
Nestled in the heart of Florence, the Chiesa di San Salvatore in Ognissanti is a beautiful backdrop for our special day. This stunning church boasts a rich history dating back to the 13th century, with its grand facade and intricate Gothic and Renaissance architecture. It has been a place of worship, art, and culture for centuries.
Inside, the church is adorned with remarkable frescoes, including the 'The Last Supper' by Domenico Ghirlandaio. As well as Sandro Botticelli's 'St. Augustine in His Study,' a masterpiece that reflects the genius of the great Renaissance painter.
The church also holds a place of historical significance, as it is the final resting place of some notable figures, including Sandro Botticelli and the renowned Italian explorer Amerigo Vespucci, whose name is associated with the continents of the Americas.
We are excited to share this iconic Florentine treasure with you, as we conduct our ceremony in this timeless and sacred space. It is a testament to the enduring beauty and cultural heritage of Florence, and we can't wait to make beautiful memories within its historic walls.

Set among the picturesque Chianti hills, Villa Corsini a Mezzomonte is where our second ceremony and reception will take place. This beautiful villa tells a story steeped in history and elegance, making it the ideal setting for our joyous celebration.
Villa Corsini A Mezzomonte is one of the last Medici residences which is still in private ownership. Built originally for the Panchiatichi family, the Villa was bought by Lorenzo the Magnificent in 1480. Decorated and frescoed between 1630 and 1634 by will of the owner, Prince Giovan Carl de' Medici, known as the artists' patron, it then became property of the Corsini family from 1644. The villa is full of historic and artistic value in frescoes by Florentine masters such as Giovanni da San Giovvani and Francesco Albani
Immersed in the center of its olive groves and vineyards, only just outside Florence city centre, it offers breathtaking views of Tuscany.
We are thrilled to enjoy the beauty of Tuscany with you all and to celebrate our wedding in the setting of our dreams!
