Destination Wedding
Makeup Artist
Italy

Italy is where some of the world's most beautiful weddings happen. Gessica Freire travels from the UK to Italy for bridal makeup — from a Tuscan villa at golden hour to a clifftop in Positano, a lakeside terrace in Como, or a palazzo in Rome. Wherever your Italian wedding takes place, she will be there.

Bridal Makeup for Italian Weddings

Italy's light is extraordinary — soft and golden in Tuscany, sharp and luminous on the Amalfi Coast, cool and reflective on the lakes. Gessica has trained extensively for the demands of destination work: long days, high heat, outdoor ceremonies, and the kind of photography that Italian venues inspire. Her kit travels with her, fully equipped and formulated for longevity in warm climates.

Italian Wedding Regions

Tuscany

Vineyard villas, rolling hills, cypress-lined drives. Gessica works throughout Tuscany — Chianti, Montalcino, Val d'Orcia, Siena and Florence. The golden light and the rolling landscape make for some of the most photographed bridal moments in the world.

Amalfi Coast

Positano, Ravello, Amalfi town — the cliffs, the sea, the heat, the light. Gessica's makeup is formulated to hold in warm, humid conditions, so what you see at 9am is what photographs perfectly at sunset.

Lake Como

Villa del Balbianello, Villa Erba, Grand Hotel Tremezzo. Lake Como weddings combine drama with elegance. The cool lake light and the mountain backdrop make for extraordinary photography, and Gessica knows how to work with both.

Rome, Venice & Beyond

From a palazzo near the Colosseum to a palazzo on the Grand Canal — Gessica travels across Italy. If your venue is not listed, please enquire. She has worked in regions across the country and is always open to new settings.

How a Destination Wedding in Italy Works

Most brides who book Gessica for an Italian wedding do a UK trial several months before the date — this is the most practical approach and ensures everything is confirmed well before you travel. On wedding day, Gessica arrives at your venue in Italy and stays for the full morning, through the ceremony and into the reception. Travel and accommodation are quoted separately based on your specific location and dates.

"We got married in Chianti in September. Gessica flew out the night before, arrived at the villa at 7am completely calm and organised, and the morning was everything I had hoped for. My makeup lasted all day in 30-degree heat." Laura B.  ·  Married in Chianti, Tuscany
