A Dream Wedding: Jessica and Andrea’s “I Do” Along the Sagrantino Road
A winery wedding in Umbria, where art, wine, and nature intertwine to celebrate Love.
Today I’ll take you inside one of the most fascinating events of the 2024 season: the wedding of Jessica and Andrea, a couple with a deep and refined vision who chose to combine contemporary design and timeless tradition in two iconic Umbrian locations — the evocative church of Bevagna and the Carapace at Tenuta Lunelli, the extraordinary architectural sculpture by Arnaldo Pomodoro, nestled among the vineyards of Sagrantino.
An Engagement Shooting Among the Vineyards of Montefalco
Jessica and Andrea’s story began many months before their wedding day, with an engagement shooting among the vineyards of Montefalco.
It was November: soft light, golden foliage, a suspended atmosphere.
We captured authentic, intimate, and playful images that perfectly reflected their connection and their love for this land.
From those moments came the save the date — a small masterpiece of visual storytelling that anticipated the mood of the entire celebration.
Those same images became the core of their personalized wedding website, an elegant digital space that guided guests step by step, sharing details, recommendations, and curiosities.
A digital experience perfectly aligned with the concept and color palette of the event, designed to let guests feel the emotion of the wedding long before setting foot in the land of Sagrantino, in the heart of Umbria.
The Ceremony: Tradition and Intimacy in the Heart of Bevagna
Jessica and Andrea exchanged their vows in an ancient church in Bevagna, where spirituality and history blend in a unique, timeless atmosphere.
The solemn interiors became the perfect setting for their ceremony, where every detail was chosen to enhance the sacred and intimate mood of the event — without losing the touch of contemporary elegance that defined the entire project.
Guests were deeply moved by the traditional rite, where the couple’s love and dedication could truly be felt by everyone present.
A Reception Between Art, Architecture, and Wine
After the ceremony, the celebration continued at the Carapace of Tenuta Lunelli, an architectural masterpiece by Arnaldo Pomodoro that embodies the fusion of art, wine, and landscape.
Jessica’s passion for architecture and Andrea’s love for the region made this the perfect location for the modern and sophisticated concept we envisioned together.
This space became a true symbol of their union — a wedding conceived as an architectural project, balanced between aesthetics and emotion.
The Concept: The Colors of Sagrantino and a Sophisticated Design
The creative direction drew inspiration from the deep and velvety shades of Sagrantino di Montefalco, one of Umbria’s most renowned wines. The chosen palette interpreted these hues with elegance, playing with their intensity to create a warm and enveloping atmosphere — perfect for a June celebration.
From the bride’s bouquet to the floral centerpieces and the table settings, every decorative element reflected the refined, wine-inspired tones of the Umbrian landscape, creating a seamless harmony between the elegant interiors and the natural surroundings. We alternated rich, velvety shades with subtle touches of light, achieving a balance of warmth and modernity.
The entire design was based on clean yet romantic lines — a combination of simplicity and sophistication that perfectly expressed the couple’s taste.
Every detail — from floral compositions to the mise en place — was curated to achieve discreet elegance, where artistry merged naturally with the environment.
The Graphic Design: Contemporary Style with an Artisan Soul
To complete the creative vision, we designed a coordinated graphic suite that reflected not only the aesthetic of the event but also the couple’s personality.
Their love for design and their desire for modern, architectural lines inspired the integration of subtle references to the location and its sculptural elements.
Each invitation and printed piece became a small work of art — a distinctive signature that gave balance, identity, and character to every moment of the day.
