A London couple, a terrace above Bologna's rooftops at Villa Scarani

Bologna, Villa dei Marchesi Scarani

They travelled from London to marry at Villa Scarani, where the terrace opens onto Bologna's rooftops in one long, uninterrupted view. Rows of white chairs faced that panorama during the ceremony, and I kept returning to how the city seemed to hold still beneath them. Later, among the olive trees, we found a quieter corner for their portraits, before the afternoon settled into an evening shaped by Italian style throughout the reception.
