Anna Heinrich posed inside her Italian wedding venue a YEAR before she married

Tim Robards married Anna Heinrich on Thursday at Masseria Potenti, a lavish estate located in the southern Italian region of Puglia.

But it’s not the first time the pair laid eyes on their destination wedding venue – having visited the estate almost a year ago.

Last June, Tim took a photo of Anna as she posed on the terrace of the main building – the exact same spot where they would go on to became husband and wife.

In the snap, shared on Anna’s Instagram on June 28 2017, the criminal lawyer wears a strapless black dress, and goes barefoot as she soaks in the stunning surrounds.

The couple spent several weeks in Europe last year, likely looking at a multitude of venues that could serve them for their wedding.

All of the couple’s guests are thought to be staying in the original outhouses, which have been converted into 17 chic apartments.

The central point of the venue is a courtyard set among vines and olive groves, surrounded by a swimming pool and a reception room.

Tim and Anna touched down in Italy late last month, and have been spending the lead-up to their wedding soaking up the European summer with close friends and family.
