One of the best things are getting married in a Tuscan village is the apperativo! This is similar to the cocktail hour at American weddings, but in Artimino, they offer wine in the wine cellar of the castle along with a full array of Tuscan fare. Antipasto, salami, grilled vegetables, olives, mini pizzas, cheese, and much more will all be laid out on a table in the garden and in the wine cellar for all of our guests to enjoy with their wine and prosecco before we head into the castle for the reception. It is a fabulous way to handle the meet & greet portion so that the reception can be slightly more enjoyable…

The wine cellar of the castle has HUGE barrels of wine, which adds so much to the evening. It is honestly one of the periods of the reception I am most anxious to enjoy. I just hope I’m not stuck taking photographs…I have already discussed with our photographer that I want to actually enjoy every moment that I have spent a year planning. He agreed 100%!
