Destination Wedding Alert: A Stunning Venue And Lots Of Fresh White And Green Florals

“We always had in our minds that we wanted something different and wanted a big party and with Italy being our favourite place, we decided on Castello di Montignano in Umbria as our venue. It is a stunning venue in the middle of the Italian countryside where anything goes! We had an outdoor ceremony in the courtyard, we wanted it to feel fresh, classic and simple so all the flowers were whites and green. It was late April so there was plenty of wild flowers in bloom which added nice background colours. Bridesmaids were in a champagne crepe colour and the groomsmen were in tuxes, with Andy in a white tux. Very simple for the dinner flowers, individual white roses, long tables as we wanted it to feel very rustic. All signage was white in colour and simple!”
