The Dolce Vita of Matthias & Laura: From Trastevere to the Colosseum
There is a special way to experience Rome, and that is to let yourself be guided by its beauty without haste. Matthias and Laura, a young couple from Belgium, chose to celebrate their wedding with an intimate and authentic ceremony in the beating heart of Trastevere. An event that seamlessly blended the elegance of an international wedding with the raw, authentic charm of the Eternal City
A Civil Ceremony in the Heart of the Rione
The day began in a refined hotel nestled among the alleys of Trastevere, where the couple prepared themselves surrounded by an atmosphere of calm and anticipation. Here, amidst historic walls and picturesque views, their civil ceremony took place: an intimate exchange that set the tone for an unforgettable day, lived entirely in the spirit of spontaneity.
Rome on Foot: Pizza, Supplí, and “La Grande Bellezza”
After their ‘I Do,’ we let Rome become our natural film set. No luxury cars—just a genuine stroll starting from Trastevere, where Matthias and Laura indulged in a quintessentially Roman break: enjoying pizza and supplí with pure joy. This moment of total relaxation gifted us with shots overflowing with life and spontaneous smiles.
Surprise at Piazza Navona: An Unforgettable Dance
But the true surprise of the day was yet to be revealed. Upon reaching the stunning setting of Piazza Navona, amidst Bernini’s fountains and street artists, Matthias and Laura left everyone speechless by organizing a real flash mob. To the notes of their favorite song, the newlyweds performed a captivating dance that transformed the square into an open-air stage.
It was a moment of pure energy: tourists stopped to cheer, and the air filled with applause and laughter. As their photographer, capturing the movement of their wedding attire dancing amidst Baroque sculptures was a uniquely cinematic experience.
From Gelato to the Majesty of the Colosseum
Following the adrenaline of the dance, our walk continued with a sweeter interlude: an artisanal gelato at the Trevi Fountain, before concluding this incredible tour before the timeless grandeur of the Colosseum.
