Italy Wedding Day Portrait of the couple at the park under falling fall leaves

The bride and groom celebrated their small wedding with public park portraits surrounded by warm toned fall colors and smiles

Marica and Federico had originally organized a wonderful wedding in the spring of 2020 to take place in a splendid farmhouse with a civil ceremony, followed by a celebration with friends and relatives. However, the arrival of the COVID forced them to change their plans by adapting them to the changing restrictions imposed by the state 4 different times. In the end, they did not give up and decided that they would not go through 2020 without getting married, so they chose to have an intimate wedding (12 people) and to give up the party.  They discovered, though, that this was not a sacrifice, but rather that their day was exciting, moving, and unique, just as they had always dreamed of it.
