Intimate wedding in Turin

Intimate wedding in Turin

We know that 2020 was a tough year for everyone. Marriages went through a very long freeze, which is still going on today. Fortunately, however, at least ceremonies were allowed at certain times. So those who were content to celebrate only with their closest relatives were still able to celebrate their wedding, in a very intimate form: the bride and groom, the wedding witnesses, the parents and any siblings. That’s all folks!
But true love doesn’t need too many sequins to be celebrated, and Irina and Giancarlo knew this well when they called me in October 2020 to photograph their intimate wedding in the heart of Turin.

Everything went very smoothly. The bride and groom arrived at the town hall and waited their turn in the hall to get married.
The wait was long because after each ceremony, the city officials had to sanitise the whole room and air it out for at least 15 minutes before they could let the next group in.
Fortunately, despite the fact that it was October, the weather was marvellous, and a warm sun warmed everyone’s spirits.

Once inside the ceremony was short, but nonetheless exciting. The master of ceremonies, despite having performed perhaps a dozen weddings that morning, was thoughtful and conducted the service with great care.
After the ceremony there was time for a few greetings and then I took the bride and groom to the centre of Turin, where we took some portraits of the couple as a reminder of their day.
