Romantic Wedding on Lake Como

Marianna & Albert are a truly romantic couple from who made us all move.

Marianna contacted us in February 2023 with a request to plan their intimate wedding for 20 people on Lake Como in July.

She already had clear ideas of what she wanted, and also the location they liked.

We booked "Imerialino" is the restaurant of the Imperiale hotel in Moltrasio.

The ceremony had to take place on the lake shore and the reception on the terrace which always overlooks Lake Como, offering a breathtaking view.

Marianna was always very attentive, she made sure everything was perfect.

These are the things that all brides feel.

They chose the very classic and elegant palette of the setup, white and green, with many candles on the table.

Marianna & Albert are from Estonia, they chose Italy for their wedding due to its warm temperatures and sunny days.

The whole of July 2023 was incredibly hot, reaching record temperatures of +45°

The only cold day with a storm was ours. Marianna & Albert brought Estonia to Lake Como.

We are always ready for plan B.

Unfortunately we cannot change the weather, but we can always make the scenario turn in our favor.

We found half a break when it wasn't raining to do the boat ride. At the ceremony with the exchange of rings and a final kiss, a little sunshine came out.

But dinner was prepared with fireworks with the strong storm, thunder and lightning.

Now all this made no difference.

Because there was so much love in the air.

Marianna & Albert were happy, they gave us their looks.

At the end of the wedding Albert said to Marianna "You were afraid that it would be too hot, and the universe heard you"

Under the warm sun of Siena

We met Liara in November 2022, when she contacted us.

She explained to us her love for Italy and Tuscany. When they and Larry were traveling around Italy way back in 2019, they signed up at a Castle just above Siena.

They were struck by nature, the beautiful surroundings and the view of Siena that opened from the hills where the Castle was located.

They have already decided to return, and they have returned for their wedding.

On our video call Liara told her vision of marriage.

Which should convey warmth, welcome and typical Tuscan simplicity.

After our meeting Liara sent me a letter that still sticks in my mind now.

After these words a fusion was born.

We created the moodboard for them, which immediately resonated with them without any modification.

For the palette Ilaria chose the colors of wine, powder pink and white. We have added elegant rustic style to the setup. With wooden chairs and placemats, olive oil as a gift for guests and also as a place maker.

Liara chose cotton paper, with which we made polygraphy.

We went to Siena in April to taste the wedding menu and visit the location and then share images with the bride and groom.

The day before the wedding we organized a Pizza Party as a welcome for guests by the Castle swimming pool.

Pizzas of all varieties and lots of Sangria are on the menu.

The long awaited day has finally arrived.

July this year was particularly hot, exceeding 40°

Precisely for this reason we opted for a shaded place to welcome guests and the ceremony.

The guests of the newlyweds were people who are very fond of music and dancing.

We have dedicated a space to them which has been set up with scenic lights, an open bar and certainly the inevitable DJ.

To finish, the guests awaited the surprise of the typical Midnight Pasta.

Which was served right from the chef's pan without leaving the dancefloor.

Tuscany is created to accommodate weddings like this one for Liara and Larry.

Who appreciate Italian cuisine and culture and obviously its uniqueness.

Fairytale on Lake Como

This wedding was very intimate and familiar. We started preparing almost 2 years before, when Arielle the bride contacted me. They already had an idea where they wanted to get married when we proposed another wedding solution in Villa Cipressi in Varenna.

Arielle immediately fell in love with this location and we began to create their fairy tale.

Arielle and Enri are very young, from a Jewish family. Parents on both families took care of the planning while respecting their own traditions. We spent long video calls talking with them. They were very worried about planning the wedding in distance.

I tried in every way to reassure them. We did the menu tasting, sending the photographs. We gave advice on which dishes to choose to satisfy the tastes of all the guests. All this time it felt like I was part of their family.

We planned the photo shoot in Villa Balbianello the day before the wedding. Welcome dinner in a restaurant near the wedding venue with a beautiful view of the lake.

It was a real pleasure to finally meet them.

We were lucky enough to enjoy a beautiful sunny day.

A pleasant dinner with candle lights and the sound of the lake.

We created the fairy tale for Arielle and Enri and her beautiful family.
