Souraya & Alan | Villa Miani | Wedding

Villa Miani Wedding

With Autumn in full swing I always like to remind myself of long warm summer nights. Souraya and Alan’s Villa Miani Wedding is the perfect choice! The magnificent historic house overlooks the ancient city of Rome and is surrounded by lush green gardens that slope down towards a dramatic terrace. The perfect choice for a sunset wedding ceremony. Check out those views!

Souraya and Alan were joined by family and friends from across the globe. The vibe was incredibly relaxed but also with a middle eastern flair. Souraya looked stunning! Classic elegance, but really natural.

After the beautiful ceremony at Villa Miani I had lots of time to take some fantastic photographs in the grounds. It was a lot of fun! Plus the light was gorgeous and made for such a romantic setting. Some of my favourite shots of the day and you can’t beat that light in Italy.

Then the 250 guests were treated to some delicious Italian cuisine. When the sun set Villa Miani was transformed again. This time lit up with hundreds of tiny lights. It must have been twinkling above the city of Rome. Both Dad’s gave wedding speeches, which was fantastic. Then it was time to party! The band were sensational and had everybody up on their feet until the early hours.

I’m lucky enough to be a destination wedding photographer a few times a year but the views from Villa Miani were spectacular. I also captured this Villa Podernovo wedding on the same trip.

A huge thank you to Souraya and Alan for having me and being so hospitable and fun to work with. A massive thank you to Natalie for introducing us.
