Ethereal wedding in a greenhouse: Raphael e Eleonora at villa Solatia
Today, I am happy to share with you one of the most enchanting weddings of last season: Eleonora and Raphael’s dreamy wedding at the stunning Villa Solatia.
The 18th-century Palladian-style villa is the perfect location for a romantic and bucolic wedding. Within its beautiful park lies a splendid historic greenhouse, which creates an atmosphere that reminds me a bit of the charm of English gardens.
A style I absolutely loved!

Bride and groom photography requests: authentic shots of deep emotions
The couple expressed from the beginning their desire to have an authentic memory of their day. They didn’t want overly static photos but rather shots that would capture and convey the emotions of that day over time, especially for their children, Sophie Luna and Leo, who were with them on such a beautiful occasion. Aside from a few more posed shots to highlight the couple and the setting, I created a reportage focusing on the emotions of the day and the carefully chosen details.





The Bride’s Style
Eleonora got ready in one of the villa’s suites along with her closest friends and little Sophie.
Makeup and hair were handled by Silvia Calenic, who further highlighted Eleonora’s natural beauty.
The first dress was perfect for a romantic and bucolic ceremony in the greenery, while the second, more linear with floral applications on the neckline, was the ideal choice for the dinner.



A Bucolic Wedding at Villa Solatia
The bucolic style of the wedding added a touch of rustic elegance to the entire event. The floral arrangements by Sara from Cosmea laboratorio fiorito were delicate and enchanting, enriching the garden with their natural colors and fragrances. The villa’s historic greenhouse hosted the dinner, creating a unique, intimate, and refined atmosphere.



The aperitivo and dinner in the Greenhouse
Right after the ceremony, guests were welcomed with an elegant aperitivo prepared by La Creme Banqueting. The meticulously crafted finger foods perfectly matched the wedding’s atmosphere.
The historic greenhouse at Villa Solatia contributed to creating a bucolic setting, ideal for a refined dinner surrounded by nature. The greenhouse’s glass walls, revealing the vibrant colors of the surrounding garden, added a touch of elegance and romance to the entire event.
After the cake cutting, guests were invited to a Moroccan-inspired lounge, where cigars and hookahs provided a unique sensory experience, creating a special moment of relaxation and conviviality to end a perfect day.











Shared emotions create unique memories
One of the most extraordinary aspects of this wedding was the level of emotion that filled the ceremony and the moments that followed. The speeches from friends and loved ones moved everyone, bringing out the love and deep connections that bond the couple. Without a doubt, it was the wedding with the most hugs I’ve ever photographed in over ten years of my career!
After delivering their final gallery, I received an email that truly touched me, with these wonderful words:
“We are immensely grateful to you for giving us this unforgettable memory that we will carry with us forever. It will allow us to tell our children, when they’re older, just how happy Mom and Dad were to celebrate their love, surrounded by so much beauty and the affection of those closest to them.”
This is the deepest meaning of my work.
A Wedding at Villa Solatia: A Unique Experience
A wedding at Villa Solatia is undoubtedly a unique experience, blending the beauty of the landscape, meticulous attention to detail, and the emotions of a special day. Thanks to the organization by Alessandra from Yourlove Events and the work of all the vendors, the event was perfect in every aspect.
