JENNA & MIKE

The week before the wedding

We had the honour of capturing Jenna & Mike's week of celebrations leading up to their wedding day. As their closest friends and family arrived from around the world, they came together to share incredible food, local wine and unforgettable evenings of dancing, nestled in the sun-drenched hills and timeless venues of Tuscany. The days unfolded at a relaxed pace, filled with laughter, connection and the excitement of what was still to come, creating memories every bit as meaningful as the wedding day itself.

wedding day

After a week of celebrations, Jenna & Mike's wedding day finally arrived. What began with rolling thunderstorms and heavy rain soon gave way to warm Tuscan sunshine, transforming the countryside just in time for an unforgettable celebration. Nestled within the historic medieval hamlet of Borgo Lucignanello Bandini, the venue carried centuries of Tuscan history in every stone wall and courtyard. Its timeless beauty and rustic charm felt homely and authentic, a perfect reflection of Jenna & Mike and the intimate, meaningful way they chose to celebrate with the people they love most. From the quiet anticipation of the morning to the joy of the ceremony and the energy of the evening, every moment felt all the more special after a week that had already brought everyone together.
