A Villa Siena Wedding Day Inspired by the Italian Countryside

Real Wedding
Hayley and Alec's European celebration in Gilbert
Written by

High school sweethearts Hayley Toyne and Alec Eddy took inspiration from Italy’s Tuscan countryside and exchanged vows in front of close family and friends at Villa Siena‭. ‬Embracing sentimental family details‭, ‬Hayley attached photographs of each of her grandparents to her cream and dusty orange bouquet‭. ‬With the vision of her grandparents overlooking the scene‭, ‬she walked the staircase of her family home where her grandfather had always imagined her on her wedding day‭. ‬The exchange of vows and rings was equally special‭, ‬as Alec slipped Hayley’s grandmother’s wedding ring on her finger as a symbol of his commitment and love‭. ‬The celebration transitioned from ceremony to reception in‭ ‬a space reminiscent of the town square in Siena‭, ‬and guests found their seats at tables furnished with overflowing floral arrangements made of fresh greenery and cream‭, ‬blush and dusty orange blooms‭. ‬Soft candlelight and gold-plated details were the perfect touches to complete the elegant and polished table settings‭. ‬In a nod to Hayley’s family’s lifelong tradition of karaoke night‭, ‬her dad chose to sing his toast to the newlyweds in lieu of reading it‭. ‬In a final gesture to remind guests of the Italian-inspired celebration‭, ‬family and friends were gifted bottles of extra virgin olive oil adorned‭ ‬with sprigs of fresh rosemary‭. ‬And the romance didn’t stop there—Hayley and Alec headed out at sunrise the morning after their wedding day for an intimate photo session that captured their first morning as a married couple‭.‬
