Tuscany, Castello di Modanella
Aimee + Charlie
ITALIAN Tuscan wedding
The oldest parts of the Castello di Modanella were built in the 12th century by the noble Cacciaconti family. In a later period, the Piccolomini family of counts inhabited the castle for hundreds of years. Despite the alterations and extensions that have occurred in the course of its history, Castello di Modanella has retained the appearance of a real fortress. As you go through into the courtyard, with its view of the charming loggia and gardens, the view is spectacular.
The Modanella estate extends over no fewer than 630 hectares in the province of Siena. The castle dominates its surroundings, looking out over several farm houses that have been meticulously restored and given comfortable, rustic interiors and makes a perfect location for your wedding.
I love destination weddings. The biggest plus is you have so much time. Whenever I photograph a destination wedding I like to be there the day before so we can do a pre wedding shoot, this is a great time for you to get used to being in the camera and relax for the big day.
There are destinations then there are destinations, and Castello di Modanella in Tuscany is definitely the latter!
