James and Stefano’s Seven Deadly Sins Inspired Wedding in Italy
James and Stefano’s wedding in Italy was a bold, stylish, and deeply personal celebration set at a private family venue.
The venue, a 13th-century villa that belongs to Stefano’s family, is covered in Renaissance-style frescos, and we wanted to bring those into the theme for their day. Everything from the invitations to the meal had a personal meaning and atmosphere, while also requiring incredible planning and logistics—including building a custom floor to host the reception dinner. The couple brought their personalities to every detail, arriving in flamboyant Dolce Gabbana suits that perfectly set the tone for a celebration that was unapologetically fun, expressive, and full of character.
Their symbolic ceremony was followed by an extraordinary reception featuring a Michelin-starred chef, a flowing bar, and incredible music that kept the energy high throughout the night. The couple embraced a playful theme of “naughtiness,” which came through in both the styling and atmosphere, balanced beautifully by lush, abundant floral designs that added elegance and drama. James and Stefano’s wedding is the perfect inspiration for couples planning a luxury same-sex wedding in Italy, combining bold design, seamless logistics, and an unforgettable party.
