The intimate elegant pastel October wedding of M & A
"... We shared incredible food and wine, laughed with family who had traveled across the world to celebrate with us, and soaked in the magic of the Tuscan countryside. Villa Montanare offered beauty around every corner, making each moment feel tranquil and unforgettable. The intimacy of our celebration allowed us to be fully present with each other and focus the day entirely on our love. Silke of Weddings by Silke and her exceptional vendor team exceeded our expectations in every way, creating a seamless, breathtaking experience from start to finish. It was truly the most special and meaningful day of our lives."

Luxus meet Tuscan rustic charme intimate August wedding with
whites & greenery
​Natalie and Chris's wedding was an intimate 25 people. The design, although kept simple, had certain elements that gave hints of luxury and opulence. Contrasted against the rustic style of villa montanare in Cortona Italy, Natalie came out in the most fabulous Jaton Couture dress with a lace choker detail that seemed to come straight out of NYC fashion week! This really set the tone as to how far our imaginations wanted to go. It was a perfect atmosphere where guests could be comfortable in the relaxed upscale tuscan vibe, but equally not out of place if dressed to the nines! Natalie and Chris emphasized luxury style in a tuscan laid back way.

The Perfect Honeymoon in Tuscany at Villa Montanare
We love everything about Italy, from the stellar food and wine to the storied landscapes and art-filled churches. The country spans multiple regions, from the tiny towns along Lake Como to the wilds of rural Sicily. But for honeymoons and destination weddings, Tuscany wins our hearts. With easy access, rolling slopes, tidy rows of cypress trees, gorgeous stone villas and medieval-era castles looking down from the hilltops, this is the Italy of your dreams.
The lovely couple Elena and Sebastian were married on the 18th July 2020 in Germany and traveled right after their feast to the incredible Villa Montanare and spend their dreamy honeymoon...

Fly to Italy for One Couple’s Ethereal Destination Micro Wedding at Villa Montanare in Tuscany
Any recent bride or groom will agree that planning a wedding during a global pandemic is, to put it mildly, a challenge. After Sarah Pisano and Alexis Maliksi got engaged, they selected a wedding planner and reviewed their options—which were seemingly limited at the time. “When we first connected with our planner in early 2021, travel still didn’t seem entirely plausible,” shares the bride. “We considered having our wedding locally in Vancouver for around 30 guests, but once we toyed with the idea of eloping in Italy or France, we changed our plans completely. We ended up having only six guests at our micro wedding in Tuscany!”

Old world elegance meets rustic charm at this Villa Montanare wedding
“In my heart, I wanted Tuscany to be our wedding location.” The following year, they made that dream a reality with a beautiful destination wedding at the VILLA MONTANARE in Cortona. With the details in the hands of their friend and wedding planner, the couple were able to relax and take in every moment. “We truly had such an amazingly fun and love-filled day, surrounded by the beauty of Tuscany and so much love from our dearest family and friends.
Our inspiration for the wedding was romantic old world Tuscan charm with a modern twist. We wanted the day to reflect who we are: fun and passionate. We pictured a cozy and charming atmosphere, interesting details and beautiful lighting. In the open garden, surrounded by olive trees, guests would overlook the Tuscan hills and witness the spring sunset. And that was what we had!“

Elegant wedding weekend in Tuscany with olive and citrus details
Are you planning a rehearsal dinner before your wedding? A formal dinner is nice but we just love the idea of a relaxed gathering with handmade wood-fired pizzas like Malin and Thiago's pre-wedding get-together in Cortona, Italy. Preludio Catering made delicious pizzas on site at Villa Montanare, a charming hidden wedding venue in Tuscany with breathtaking panoramic views over the Val d’Esse and Val di Chiana Valley.
Guests mingled at tables decorated by Weddings by Silke with Silk and Willow table runners, lemons, and mixed herbs including rosemary, thyme, mint, lavender, and sage. The handmade pizzas were arranged on wooden boards with pine cones, tomato vines, eggplants, and basil plants filled wooden crates that were repurposed as décor.
"Everything was perfect," bride Malin says of the kick-off party. "We couldn't imagine a warmer welcome for all our guests who were traveling so far to join us on our best day ever."
