Wedding story of Haley and Bryan

Haley & Bryan experienced the authentic Italian atmosphere at their fabulous wedding surrounded by the ancient gardens of the Villa Gamberaia.  Newlyweds invited their family and friends to fly across the world to celebrate their love. Destination weddings are the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in the authenticity of another culture, feel like a tourist discovering something new, find your new passions, and most importantly — gather your closest people around you to experience it all together.

Haley & Bryan’s main inspiration comes from a fusion of Gucci Garden Party and Harry Styles vibe. They wanted a LOT of color, vibrance, and fun. There was no dress code. The couple wanted everyone to wear whatever made them feel the most confident and the most stunning! And they made the right choice. The color palette itself left us speechless!

Haley describes her wedding as euphoric, emotional, and hella fun! From what we saw, the ceremony, the party where the dance floor was set on fire, and the overall atmosphere of the wedding was truly epic! The ceremony was accompanied by live music, the newlyweds decorated a wedding cake right in front of everyone, and don’t even get us started on rented gelato carts!
The couple knew they were going to have around 150 guests, so they needed a location that could accommodate everyone. Haley said that they also really wanted the entire wedding party to be able to stay at the Villa.

We were inspired by Haley’s capacity to fully relish the present moment, to wholeheartedly let loose, and opted to request five insightful tips from our bride that she can impart to fellow brides. Haley's recommendations:

1. Hire an incredible planner!
The one that will listen to you, one that you can rely on. Pay attention to their ability to communicate because this is very important at a wedding for the entire team working on it.

2. Don't spend a fortune on invitations.
It’s better to spend that money on entertainment. Make sure that everyone, and especially you and your fiance, will have fun!

3. Overplan as much as you can, and then once the festivities start, let it go.
Don't stress about the little things, it's all about your perspective! Everything ends up working out how it should in the end!

4. Create an EXTENSIVE "do" and "do not" playlist for your DJ!

5. Wear slippers for the after-party and dance your ass off. 

Haley chose our Agata gown as the second dress. She found it in Rome during a last-minute appointment at The Woman in White.

‘’The second I put the gown on, I fell in love! Not only had I never seen anything like it, I had also never had a dress fit me as perfectly as this one did! SO incredibly flattering!’’ –  the bride says.
