"If you've hung out with me-or, honestly, just spent 30 seconds in my presence-in the past two years, chances are you've had to listen to me blab about my wedding in Tuscany. The event is all I've been able to think about since we booked a date and venue (October 18, 2025, at a villa in a little town called Certaldo, if you were curious), and now that it's over, I still don't have any plans of stopping."
"My now-husband and I had visited Florence a couple of times prior to this trip, so we knew it would be tricky to find a property large enough to accommodate my family of six in the compact city center. But being within walking distance of all the tourist sights was important to me, because this was everyone else's first time experiencing the city, so I started scouring Airbnb listings for the perfect place in late 2024."
"A few pretty apartments were in the running at first, but once I saw Luxury Blue River, a three-bedroom, three-bathroom apartment quite literally overlooking the Ponte Vecchio, I knew I had found the one."
The narrator planned a Tuscany wedding for October 18, 2025, and spent three days in Florence with family before traveling to Certaldo. Finding a centrally located property large enough for six people proved challenging in the compact city center. Prioritizing walking distance to tourist sights for first-time visitors, the narrator searched Airbnb listings in late 2024. The chosen property, Luxury Blue River, is a three-bedroom, three-bathroom apartment that literally overlooks the Ponte Vecchio. Arrival logistics included a tiny but useful elevator and a property manager who provided keys and a tour, followed by a stunning window view.
