From the relaxed, holiday vibes to the whimsical, watercolor yellow that edged the bride’s gown, from the medieval Italian town setting to the enchanting lanterns which lit up the inky night sky at the evening party, Sophie’s wedding day was certainly one to be remembered.

Head pastry chef Sophie and tax advisor Marcus invited their guests to Castello di Titignano in Umbria, Italy for their colourful, three-day wedding weekend which celebrated love, family and friendship. Their celebration took place June 7th 2019 and the whole weekend focused on making the most of the exhilarating Italian landscape, with an emphasis on a sustainable and plastic-free approach.

Sophie’s gown, made entirely in silk, was light and comfortable, composed of two parts: a simple, sleek tunic in double layer crepe de chine silk, with a deep plunging V-neck back, and a spectacular hand hand-painted silk chiffon overskirt which transformed the look in to something unique and unexpected. I love the deceptive simplicity of the gown with the pretty, tulip sleeves and relaxed fit.

And for the evening dancing: off came the overskirt, on came rad gold sneakers.
