There’s something about weddings that unfold a little differently than planned that makes them even more memorable and that’s exactly what happened at this beautiful celebration at Villa Siena.
Inspired by the charm of Siena, Italy, Villa Siena truly feels like stepping into a Tuscan town square. The warm stone walls, the elegant arches, and the romantic courtyard set the stage for a day that felt both timeless and magical.
The forecast called for rain, and while that could have easily dampened the mood, this sweet couple embraced every twist the day brought. Originally, they didn’t plan to do a first look. But as the skies opened up, they made the call to push their ceremony back just a bit, giving the rain time to pass so they could still say their vows outside, surrounded by the beauty of the villa. In that pocket of extra time, they chose to see each other before the ceremony—and let me tell you, it turned out to be one of the best decisions they made.
Their first look was tender and emotional, a quiet moment just for the two of them before the celebration began. And because they flowed with the changes, we were able to capture some of the most unique and gorgeous shots—moody skies, soft light bouncing off the wet stone, and that undeniable glow that comes from two people who are simply happy to be together, no matter what the weather brings.
By the time the ceremony began, the rain had cleared, leaving the courtyard glistening and the air feeling fresh and romantic. It was as if Tuscany itself had washed the square clean just for them. Guests gathered under the open sky, and the couple exchanged vows with the soft sound of raindrops still lingering in the background.
This day was such a beautiful reminder that sometimes the unexpected can lead to moments even more magical than you imagined. It was an honor to document a love story that flowed with the day, embraced the rain, and turned every change into something beautiful.
If you’re dreaming of a wedding day that feels like an escape to Italy—with all its romance and charm—Villa Siena is truly a gem. And if rain shows up? Well, let this day be proof that a little weather can make your love story shine even brighter.
