We do love a little decadence here at Bridal Musings.
Wedding inspiration can be found in swanky settings, luxurious decorations, rich colors, and abundance of adornments.
This is why we have been swooning over this elegant Tuscan inspiration shoot, shot by photographer Olga Makarova, and Chiara Sernesi, event designer at Weddings In Tuscany.
If you are planning a wedding in a palace, formal garden or country manor or if you want to add a touch of luxury to a simple celebration, be prepared to be inspired by elegant tablescapes, beautiful blooms and lovely paper goods.

The Event Designer
Inspiration for the shoot was a beautiful villa in Lucca, with a baroque style.
The Palazzo Pfanner Garden, which is attributed to Filippo Juvarra’s genius, has lawns, ornamental flowers, forest plant pots and earthenware pots with lemon trees. These are all accompanied by a monumental string of 18th-century statues that depict the deities from Greek Olympus, as well as the Four Seasons. This garden represents a great example of an elegant baroque garden in the middle of medieval Lucca.
I created the look of this glamorous photo shoot, keeping in mind the lavishness of the location. I am a creative and visual person who loves to style and design a shoot. We used gold and burgundy for decor that went perfectly with the villa’s style. We added more details to the shoot in order to make it more unique.
The shoot was amazing with this group of talented people; the creative florist Stiatti fiori who created the perfect flowers, the talented photographer Olga Makarova’s eye that captured every detail, Silvia Gerzeli who is an experienced hair and make-up artist and the models who looked so good in their outfits.
Working with so many incredible vendors to create the perfect shoot was a true dream!
