Enduring Romance in the Umbrian Countryside

TIMELESS WEDDING AT BORGO BASTIA CRETI

I’ve always been drawn to the warmth and charm of Californians – they have this way of making everyone around them feel at home. This couple and their families were no exception, and I had the privilege of capturing their intimate yet profoundly moving wedding in the heart of Umbria.

The celebration took place at Borgo Bastia Creti, an enchanting, restored village that offers endless photo opportunities. While the setting was stunning, it was the genuine, deep love between this couple that truly left its mark on me.

The ceremony unfolded in a garden beneath a romantic pink floral arch, followed by cocktails near the castle’s ancient walls, bathed in the softest light. The reception gathered around a breathtaking imperial table, surrounded by climbing greenery that shifted from vibrant greens to warm reds, creating a timeless atmosphere.

As with any Californian wedding, it’s all about the essence – heartfelt speeches filled the evening, accompanied by excellent local wine and a perfect, refreshing breeze. It’s one of those weddings at Borgo Bastia Creti that will stay with me for a long time.
