A long weekend among the cypresses
Three days in the hills of Tuscany, and why a slow wedding weekend makes the quietest, most honest pictures.
We arrived on a Thursday and the hills were already gold. Giulia and Marco had given themselves three days instead of one, and you could see it in everything: nobody checked a watch, and the wedding felt like a long, easy meal with the people they love most.
Why a weekend works
When a wedding is spread over days, the pictures breathe. There is the welcome dinner, the morning coffee on the terrace, the ceremony in the afternoon light and the slow walk back through the olive grove. Each part has room to be itself.
If you are thinking about a destination weekend, start with the place and let the schedule follow. The light will tell you where to put the ceremony.
