Nicole & Philipp (Germany)
Wedding Photographer Tuscany - Wedding at San Gimignano

Wedding at Croce di Bibbiano, Poggibonsi, Siena, Tuscany, Italy

This page is dedicated to the marriage of Nicole and Philipp but first a little history of this mystic place.

Croce di Bibbiano in the past was a monastery build up in the late Middle Ages as halfway stage between San Gimignano and Colle Val d’Elsa.
Pilgrims walking along the ancient Francigena route used to stop here along their way to Rome.

The legend says that exactly on this property a little girl found one of the Holy nails of Jesus cross, today conserved in the Cathedral of Colle Val d’Elsa.
This place still today inspires this holiness and amazing peace. Its position and the way Croce di Bibbiano lays on the famous hill called “Poggio del Santo Chiodo” make really think about a place proud of its history.

The entire event was held in the Croce di Bibbiano estate. The preparations in the apartments of the village, the ceremony in the garden, aperitifs, dinner and the rest of the party.

The photo shoot started one hour before the ceremony to capture the last parts of the preparation, while the photos with only the couple were held in the countryside around the village.

The dinner had to be in the garden but a strong storm forced the organization to use the "B" plan. However, after the rain, a beautiful and romantic sunset gave us a fantastic view and a beautiful light for the last portraits.

And finally a big surprise with the fireworks show!

A great wedding day in Tuscany.
Auguri!!!
