Villa Medicea di Lilliano – Rebecca & Ozzy’s Wedding
There are days that seem to come straight out of a film: perfect lighting, happy people, scenery that sticks in the memory for its beauty. Rebecca and Ozzy’s wedding at the Villa Medicea di Lilliano was just that: a combination of elegance and rhythm, intimacy and celebration, classicism and modernity.
We are just a few kilometres from Florence, in the hills that mark the border between the city and the Chianti region. An area that smells of history, good wine, tranquillity and art. And it was here, where everything already seems scenic in itself, that Rebecca and Ozzy gave life to a wedding that managed to combine worlds and cultures, style and spontaneity, with a disarming naturalness.
A mix of emotions, cultures and beauty
Rebecca and Ozzy are one of those couples who bring with them an infectious energy. Young, smiling, complicit. Their wedding was the perfect reflection of their personalities: dynamic, heartfelt, intense.
Right from the start there was a special atmosphere. The families, coming from different backgrounds, created a beautiful cultural mix of accents, looks, gestures and traditions that blended naturally, giving the whole thing an international but deeply human flavour. The day was spectacular, even from the weather point of view: clear skies, vivid colours, a warm light that seemed to want to take part in the celebration. This made it possible to make the most of the villa’s outdoor spaces, in particular the iconic Cortile Mediceo and its scenic staircase leading to the terrace.
The video: rhythm, emotion and atmosphere
Telling the story of a wedding like Rebecca and Ozzy’s requires a balance between delicacy and energy, between the most private moments and those full of life. The video made for them follows precisely this track: a fluid alternation between intimate moments – glances, hands reaching out, promises exchanged in silence – and sequences full of rhythm, laughter, dancing, freedom. Musically, a crescendo has been constructed that accompanies the spectator throughout. It starts with softer and more evocative sounds, up to engaging and pressing tracks, which give rhythm to the party, the dance, the collective hugs, the applause and the toasts.
What emerges is a sincere and powerful narrative, which gives back the feeling of being there, immersed in that lively and bright atmosphere. The focus is not so much on listing everything that happened, but on giving back the feeling of experiencing it: the light and somewhat frenetic happiness of a party taking off, the heartbeat before the “yes”, the adrenalin rush when dancing without thinking too much about it.
A wedding at the Villa Medicea di Lilliano: history, elegance and versatility
It is impossible not to mention the Villa Medicea of Lilliano as the silent protagonist of this day. It is a setting that speaks, that accompanies, that embellishes. Immersed in nature, surrounded by olive groves and vineyards, the villa is located in Bagno a Ripoli, a few minutes from Florence. Its structure preserves the Medici architectural nobility intact, with frescoed courtyards, geometric gardens and panoramic terraces from which one can see the city in the distance.
For Rebecca and Ozzy’s wedding, the villa was the setting for an open-air ceremony with an elegant yet casual feel, and then a party that unfolded between the courtyard and the refined interior of the Sala Cortile. The spacious and well-kept spaces allowed guests to move around freely, creating different moments for each phase of the event: from the ceremony at sunset to the reception and the final party. One of the most appreciated aspects of the villa is its versatility: perfect for elegant receptions, but also able to accommodate more relaxed and contemporary atmospheres, as in the case of this wedding. And then there is the light, which has something special here. Photographers and videomakers know this well: every hour of the day offers a different palette, a play of shadows and reflections that transforms each image into something alive and vibrant.
A day to remember (and to see again)
Rebecca and Ozzy’s wedding was one of those days that sticks with you. Not only for the beauty of the location or the attention to detail, but for the authentic energy that was everywhere. The resulting video is not intended to “simply” document the event: it recounts it with a gaze that captures the essentials, capturing the truth of those moments without ever being intrusive. It is a visual narration built on the rhythm of emotions, designed to be watched over time and to continue to excite, always.
