The celebration of a love on the last day of the year is an event within the event.
And celebrating it in one of the most beautiful and romantic cities in Italy, or rather, the world, makes it a particularly special event.
Julie and Abe, from Alaska, wanted to get married in Florence on 31 December, and chose a truly incredible location for their wedding, that is a terrace with the Dome of Florence's Cathedral in the background.
It was an intimate ceremony, in the presence of their little girl, and it was a real privilege for me to be called as their wedding photographer.
The Winter Weather gave us some rest and the climate of the day was, really, so mild as to allow the bride and groom a walkabout in the city centre, Abe wearing a light blue suit and Julie in a beautiful mermaid-style wedding dress with short sleeves.
A newly married couple always attracts attention and many passers-by turned to applaud, some even asked for selfies.
Italian people are renown for their warmth and friendliness and the Fiorentini did not disappoint..
