A wet bride is a lucky bride if there is a beautiful winery
Let me tell you about a wedding among the barrels, aperitif in the historic cellar and a candle lite wedding banquet in the veranda among the vines. Do you like it?
Seen for you by Donatella Cinelli Colombini
A really special wedding, ideal for those who choose the Tuscan countryside because of its special touch in uniqueness and charm which comes from the wine’s magic.
The Fattoria del Colle winery has a large hall covered by brick vaulted ceiling, along the walls are situated the small barrels where the Orcia Doc Cenerentola wine ages. This is the location where to organize the ceremony with the altar and the chairs for the wedding couple covered in white satin. It is not a Church (by the way the estate has a delightful chapel that can welcome up to 40 guests) but the effect is all the same solemn , even though quite unusual.
Next to the barrel ageing area, where there are still visible traces of the original medieval walls, is where the aperitif is served. This is a suggestive area which gives the buffet a particular Tuscan imprint. In other words it is not an anonymous frame for the wedding of a couple who has chosen Tuscany to celebrate their love.
Wedding banquet in the veranda of the Osteria della Fattoria del Colle; soft
candle light, fresh flowers on the tables, tablecloths draped down to the ground and a menu full of traditional dishes such as hand made pinci, Chianina ox tagliata, Cinta Sienese pork loin … together with Chianti Superiore DOCG and Brunello di Montalcino DOCG.
If outside it is raining or it is cold , who cares, is it not all the same a beautiful wedding party?
