The short answer
Can an Indian bridal makeup artist from India do our wedding at Il Borro?
Yes. Tejaswini’s team flies from India for weddings at Il Borro, the Ferragamo family’s wine estate in the Valdarno, about an hour from Florence. The bride gets ready in a suite in the medieval village, and different functions can use the vineyards, the village piazza and lawns with the hills behind, all on one estate.

| Owner | The Ferragamo family |
| From Florence | About 1 hour |

A little history
A medieval village brought back to life by a fashion family.
Il Borro is an ancient estate in the Valdarno whose medieval village sits on a rocky spur above a stream. The Ferragamo family bought it in the 1990s and restored the village, the villa and the farm.
Today it is a hotel and wine estate with suites in the old village houses, a villa for larger groups, farmhouses among the vineyards and restaurants that use produce from its own organic farm.
For an Indian wedding, the estate’s size is the point: a mehendi in one corner, a sangeet in another and pheras on a lawn with the hills behind, all without leaving the property.
