This summer, I had the honor speaking at the Destination Wedding Planners Congress in Florence, Italy. During the little downtime I had, I walked and walked to explore the city. The thing I kept noticing the most was all of the amazing doors! Here is a roundup of some of my favorites for this Travel Tuesday.

The other thing that I found incredible was the attention to detail many of these doors had. From carved panels, to guilded pieces, and forged door knockers, there was so much to see even up close.

I was so inspired by all of the color and beauty I saw, I came home and painted my front door green!

Sorry ladies… looks like the ultimate bachelor is officially off the market again! George Clooney married his girlfriend, British-Lebanese lawyer Amal Alamuddin in a beautiful ceremony in Venice on September 27th.  While the wedding was a star-studded intimate affair (around 100 guests), it was filled with gorgeous details that are a great source of inspiration. The photos below are from the People magazine story in this week’s issue (out today!), so be sure to pick up a copy to see the rest. The photo above of George and friends arriving to the ceremony in classic Venetian style is from The Guardian. Now let’s take a closer look…

The Aman Canal Grande Venice was a perfect venue for the wedding ceremony, and we love the bouquets of white flowers hanging down the aisle. An emerald cut engagement ring was a classic choice for the beautiful bride-to-be.

Amal’s dress was by Oscar de la Renta, and George wore a tuxedo by Italian designer Giorgio Armani. Perfect choices for such an elegant ceremony.

The couple looks lovely standing with their in-laws in the photo above, but we couldn’t resist including a photo of George with Charleston resident Bill Murray. He’s even wearing the turkey feather bow tie that was in our bow tie roundup a few weeks ago!

Finally, a special photo of the couple’s first dance at their reception. Such a classically chic affair for a equally stylish couple. And we’ve only shared a small fraction of the photos… make sure to pick up your copy of People to see more of one of our favorite weddings this year!
