VENUE: Borgo Bastia Creti | PLANNING + STYLING: Italy Weddings | Photographers: Erica Brenci & Paola Meloni
As a destination wedding photographer based in Umbria, I have had the pleasure of capturing some of the most beautiful weddings in this breathtaking region of Italy. While Tuscany is often the go-to destination for couples planning their dream wedding in Italy, Umbria offers a unique and equally stunning backdrop for a memorable celebration of love.
One of the most enchanting locations in Umbria for a destination wedding is Borgo Bastia Creti, a charming hamlet nestled in the heart of the Umbrian hills. This exclusive venue boasts stunning views of the surrounding countryside and offers a truly authentic Italian experience for couples and their guests. The stone buildings, cobbled streets, and beautiful gardens provide a romantic and intimate atmosphere that is perfect for a destination wedding.
Choosing Umbria over Tuscany for your destination wedding offers several advantages. Firstly, Umbria is less crowded than Tuscany, which means you can enjoy a more relaxed and personalized wedding experience. Another advantage of Umbria is the abundance of exclusive and hidden places to discover.
Why Umbria is the New Destination Wedding Hotspot
When it comes to destination weddings in Italy, Tuscany is often the first choice for couples seeking a romantic and picturesque backdrop. However, there’s a new contender on the scene: Umbria. This region offers all the charm and beauty of Tuscany, with the added benefit of fewer crowds and a more authentic Italian experience. And when it comes to hidden gems, Umbria truly shines.
Discovering the Hidden Gems of Umbria
Borgo Bastia Creti is just one example of the many exclusive and hidden places to discover in Umbria. With its stunning views, charming atmosphere, and beautiful gardens, this hamlet provides the perfect backdrop for a memorable destination wedding. And that’s just the beginning. From the hilltop town of Assisi to the shores of Lake Trasimeno, Umbria is full of surprises and hidden treasures waiting to be explored.
