at La Foce, Tuscany

Guests arrived in Florence where we ushered them on to the correct buses with their luggage.

After a tour of the beautiful gardens with a refreshing cocktail, Friday evening consisted of a relaxed Italian buffet dinner by the outdoor pool. A homemade pasta station, Italian ham station, fresh cheeses and salads were laid out. A delicious gelato cart with coffee was enjoyed at the end of the evening under the stars.

Guests were given the option of a guided walk through the Tuscan hills on Saturday morning, which they finished at a surprise picnic spot with stunning views shaded by the trees. The afternoon was spent lounging by the pool and relaxing before the real party commenced.

A delicious champagne and cocktail reception was set up in the gardens, after which guests sat in the courtyard on long candlelit tables to enjoy an Italian feast. Dancing took place in The Orangery with a singer and saxophonist, late into the evening. A much-needed brunch was served the following morning before guests departed on coaches to catch their flights home.
