Living Their Tuscan Dream, This Thai Celebrity Couple Had An Intimate Destination Wedding In An Italian Castle

Charyl Chappuis, a famous Thai footballer tied the knot with his model girlfriend- Helena Khanitha Bush who’s the 2nd runner-up of Miss Thailand World 2018 in a Tuscan-style atmosphere in Italy in an intimate garden ceremony. The couple chose Tenuta di Artimino which is a place of rare beauty with authentic Italian fare, surrounded by 730 hectares of the Tuscan countryside.

The wedding was meticulously planned by The Wedding Bliss Thailand and the collaboration was formed in DWP Congress 2016 Florence where they met with Tuscany For Weddings, which led to this amazing wedding.

 

 

How They Met

 

As they say- “sometimes, it’s just written in stars,” their love story gives us all the romantic feels! The bride shares exclusively on DWP Insider how they both met by chance and later, their story of becoming best friends and ultimately, life partners.

 

“We actually met the first time in a club. I think he had just won one of the cups in Thailand and all the boys were out celebrating. It was quite funny because my best friend actually had a crush on one of his friends and she kind of knew that that guy was going out that night, and we got invited out by our football friend. So she basically dragged me out that night. I remember not wanting to go but we ended up going and that’s when I met Charyl for the first time. We then met like that a couple of times for 2-3 months, always in a group of friends. We became friends and didn’t think much about it until one day we met out again and it was like a spark suddenly appeared when our eyes met and from that day on everything happened so fast, we started hanging out every day, and after a month of dating we were a couple, and 10 months after that he asked me if I wanted to marry him.”

Currently, the couple is focusing on their careers. Charyl is back in Thailand playing football and Helena is in London doing her modeling.

The Lovely Couple

 

 

In terms of the bride and groom’s dress, it’s as interesting as the atmosphere of love at this event. The bride wore a Poem gown and Jimmy Choo heels, the groom wore a Gulati look and Christian Louboutin shoes, while the bridesmaids flaunted their beauty in a green Mixedgals gown, surrounded by pure white roses. The wedding at Tenuta di Artimino this time was allocated by The Wedding Bliss Thailand and completes the set with a professionally decorated atmosphere set by the Xenia Motif team, which is guaranteed a world-class wedding decoration reputation. And all the impressive photos were taken by the Vlasta Weddings team.

 

 

With views over Florence and an outdoor setting worth a movie set, we loved the green and white color palette which perfectly blended with the stately charm of the Castel. The dinner took place at the foot of the steps with a view of the village and the hills. We love to see such collaborations happening through DWP that creates magical memories for everyone!

We wish the couple a happily ever after!

Love DWP!
