A Vibrant Jewish Wedding in the Gardens of Castello di Celsa

The timeless charm of Castello di Celsa in Siena provided a royal backdrop for the stunning union of Hailey and Josh. This wasn’t just a destination wedding; it was a vibrant celebration of heritage, faith, and joy, fully embracing the rich traditions of a Jewish wedding in Tuscany.

Getting ready and first look at the castle.

The day began with the couple preparing in different corners of the estate: Hailey within the castle’s historic, frescoed rooms and Josh in the elegant dependance. Their first look in the castle’s internal courtyard was a moment of profound emotion, followed by a second, joyful reveal between Hailey and her friends. Inside the castle’s noble halls, the intimate Ketubah signing took place, setting a solemn tone before the main event.

The ceremony was held in the castle’s world-famous Italian gardens. Hailey made a breathtaking entrance, walking down the path to reach the Chuppah overlooking the Sienese hills. After the breaking of the glass, the energy shifted completely. The couple entered the outdoor reception to a roar of cheers, with friends waving white napkins in a festive “chaos” of joy.

Cocktail hour and group dances, followed by a DJ set late into the night.

Following emotional speeches under the stars, the party moved back to the courtyard for the Hora: a wild, traditional dance where the newlyweds were lifted on chairs, surrounded by the swirling energy of their guests. It was an unforgettable night that blended ancient tradition with a modern, high-energy DJ set.
