There’s something timeless about Tuscany - and right now it’s more than just a backdrop for romantic films or honeymoon plans. Couples from all over the world are falling in love with the idea of saying "I do" in this enchanting corner of Italy. But what exactly makes Tuscany such a sought-after wedding destination in 2025 and beyond?
THE LIGHT IS DIFFERENT HERE
Tuscany’s golden hour is legendary. Photographers describe it as “liquid gold” - the way sunlight wraps around the rolling hills, olive groves, and vineyards is simply unmatched. It creates natural, soft lighting for wedding photos without the need for filters or extra effects. Come here once and you will never wish to go back.

HISTORIC VILLAS AND RUSTIC CASTLES
Many couples today are looking for a venue with meaning - not just beauty. Tuscany offers 12th-century castles, family-run wine estates, and frescoed villas that tell a story. One rare fact? Some Tuscan wedding venues are still owned by the same noble families who built them centuries ago. A wedding here isn’t just an event - it becomes part of living history.
LOCAL TRADITIONS THAT FEEL PERSONAL
Tuscany celebrates simplicity and authenticity. Wedding receptions often feature long wooden tables under fairy lights, where guests dine "al fresco" on hand-rolled pasta and local wine. Did you know that Chianti Classico wine - a Tuscan staple - is still produced under strict medieval laws set by the Grand Duke of Tuscany in 1716? Sharing it at your wedding is like serving a sip of Italian heritage.
A WEDDING AND A HOLIDAY IN ONE
Tuscany is not just a destination - it’s an experience. Couples and guests often stay for several days, turning the wedding into a vacation with wine tastings, Vespa tours and lazy afternoons by the pool. With well-connected airports in Florence and Pisa, it’s surprisingly easy to reach. This makes it ideal for international weddings where guests fly in from different parts of the world.
TAILORED FOR EVERY STYLE
Whether you dream of a luxury wedding at a 5-star villa or an intimate celebration in a vineyard, Tuscany offers it all. From boho-chic elopements to elegant multi-day events with fireworks and live opera, the region is incredibly versatile. Many of our listed venues in Tuscany can adapt to your vision - explore our handpicked locations.
A REGION THAT FEELS LIKE A FAIRYTALE
The small medieval towns like San Gimignano, Montepulciano, and Cortona look exactly like they did hundreds of years ago - cobbled streets, terracotta rooftops, cypress-lined drives. It’s no wonder so many films were shot here, including Under the Tuscan Sun and Gladiator. Your wedding becomes part of a real-life storybook.
THE TRENDS FOR 2025–2027
We’ve seen a noticeable rise in Tuscan weddings booked by UK, American, and Scandinavian couples. The biggest trend? Week-long wedding experiences with farm-to-table dining, local artisans and relaxed schedules. Eco-conscious weddings are also growing - many venues offer organic menus, zero-waste options, and even olive oil party favours made on-site.
