Florence is an undisputed utopia of picturesque vineyards, lush olive groves and hill-side towns. As the most active centre of the Renaissance, every eminent artistic figure – among them, Brunelleschi, Botticelli, da Vinci, and, Michelangelo – is represented here, in an unrivalled gathering of churches, galleries and museums. What does this mean for you? The charming cities within this region are a treasure trove of almost perfectly preserved buildings that provide extraordinary wedding venues dripping with atmosphere. 16th century Villa Cicolina, near Montepulciano is one such venue, and played host to one of our recent destination weddings.
