Florence
An intimate gathering of Italy's most celebrated bridal designers, florists, and atelier — hosted in a private 17th-century villa above Siena. By invitation only.
The Bridal Event is not a fair, not a runway. It is an unhurried weekend in the Tuscan countryside, where the brides of tomorrow meet the artisans shaping their most photographed day. Atelier-led fittings. Master classes from florists who dress the altars of Florence. Long dinners under olive trees.
Each edition gathers no more than 120 invited guests — couples, mothers, wedding planners, journalists — alongside twelve designers chosen for the integrity of their craft.
Champagne and Tuscan crostini on the loggia.
A conversation with the founders and three master atelier.
Long-table dinner under the cypress avenue. Hosted by Chef Lorenzo Bartoli.
Twelve concurrent sessions across the villa's salons. By appointment.
Hands-on demonstrations from four master florists.
Twelve gowns. One staircase. Live string quartet.
The signature evening of the weekend.
One-to-one sessions with planners and atelier.
A final glass of Vernaccia before departure.
A baroque villa designed by Carlo Fontana in 1680, hidden in 3,000 acres of woodland above Siena. Long avenues of cypress, a lemon garden, frescoed salons by Luti, and the kind of light that has drawn painters for three centuries.
