A Tuscan Celebration at Quercia al Poggio
Nestled in the heart of Chianti’s rolling vineyards, Quercia al Poggio set the scene for a wedding that was both intimate and effortlessly elegant. With golden-hour views, an open-air celebration, and a setting steeped in rustic charm, every detail felt perfectly in tune with the Tuscan countryside.
The venue
A former farmhouse turned boutique wine estate, Quercia al Poggio captures the essence of Tuscany with its stone walls, terracotta roofs, and sweeping vineyard views. The ceremony took place overlooking the hills, where rows of olive trees and cypress-lined paths framed the couple’s vows. Later, guests moved to the courtyard, surrounded by ivy-clad walls and historic archways, for a reception that embraced the villa’s timeless character.
The wedding
The couple made the most of Quercia al Poggio’s natural beauty, weaving through the vineyards for portraits as the sun dipped below the horizon. The ceremony space was simple yet breathtaking. After exchanging vows, they wandered hand in hand through the estate’s gravel paths, soaking in the quiet magic of the Tuscan countryside before joining guests for an alfresco reception.
The details
The reception was a vibrant display of color and texture, set against the rustic charm of Quercia al Poggio’s courtyard. Long wooden tables were adorned with soft, gauzy runners and delicate glassware, creating an inviting yet refined tablescape. Bold floral arrangements – bursts of coral, deep red, lilac, and soft blue—cascaded onto the stone floor, adding a romantic, organic feel. Tall glass hurricanes with flickering candles lined the center of each table, enhancing the warm, intimate ambiance as the evening unfolded under the open sky.
