The timeless charm of the Florentine hillside and the elegance of the Antica Fattoria di Paterno, an exclusive historic residence, turned the special day of Marco and Stephanie, an Italian-American couple, into a fairytale wedding. The Antica Fattoria di Paterno rises in the heart of Chianti. Dominated by a 17th-century tower, the property overlooks a hill blanketed with vineyards, olive groves, and woods. The estate is enveloped in flowers and lush vegetation, and every spot is a veritable corner of paradise that retains the charm of the past. The villa offers a wide variety of indoor and outdoor spaces of remarkable elegance and beauty, from which one can admire breathtaking sunsets. Also, floor-to-ceiling windows that open onto one another create a spacious area that can comfortably accommodate over 200 people. Upon arrival, guests are welcomed into the Wine Cellar lined with fascinating French oak barrels, which leads to the spacious indoor halls. The church, carved into the tuff, was restored to its former glory thanks to careful restoration work. Entering the church, one is enveloped by the atmosphere of the 13th century, when the services of the convent that was located in the tower of the villa were held there. The Piazzetta del Giubileo, bordered by its distinctive architecture and lush Tuscan vegetation, provides a perfect backdrop for outdoor events. All around, there are sprawling gardens ideal for Open Bars, Music, and Outdoor Lounges. A sky-view loggia, windows, and arches frame sunset views of the Tuscan Countryside. The swimming pool, which looks as if it were suspended between the sky and lush greenery below, provides a natural setting of unparalleled beauty, perfect for poolside photos of the bride and groom.
