A FAIRYTALE WEDDING...

LAURA ANDA CLEMENT, A LONG-STANDING STORY

Laura and Clément fell in love when they were just teenagers… and never left each other! After the birth of their magnificent little daughter Capucine, our sparkling Swiss couple wanted to reunite their loved ones and finally formalize this long-standing union on the edge of one of the most romantic lakes in Italy.

THE WEDDING VENUE

Laura and Clément literally fell under the spell of the magnificent Castello Dal Pozzo wedding venue, a “resort” with a 5-star hotel part to accommodate guests with a “roof top” swimming pool as well as a part that can be privatized for weddings with a lake view from the terrace. This extraordinary place is located not far from Arona, south of Lake Maggiore, where we were able to take superb couple photos.
 

A MAGIC CEREMONY

It was in a vintage Fiat 500 that Laura arrived at the church accompanied by her dad.

Thanks to our follow-up for the religious wedding procedure and our French-speaking priest, Laura and Clément were able to have a beautiful Catholic ceremony in French in a breathtaking church in the center of Arona.

For the anecdote, it started to rain when we were leaving for the church and it rained throughout the ceremony. As soon as it ended, a beautiful sun came out which allowed our newlyweds to walk in the pretty town of Arona for a nice photographic shoot and the guests to be able to enjoy the exterior of the Castle.

THE WEDDING RECEPTION

After the ceremony, Laura and Clément’s guests were able to enjoy the terrace of the Castello Dal Pozzo while tasting a very generous typical Italian aperitif and enjoying the entertainment chosen by the newlyweds such as a photobooth or live music…

Dinner & party

The dinner took place in the magnificent Belle Epoque style Orangery of the Castello Dal Pozzo which allows for outdoor dining even in case of unpredictable weather.
Laura & Clément wanted a decoration that reflected their image, romantic and boho. With pink and white tones, pampas… A mix of high and low centerpieces gave dynamism and originality to the decoration!
 
Once dinner was over, the couple cut the cake in the “Central Sala” where they then danced until the end of the night.
 
A true fairytale wedding on the shores of Lake Maggiore for our two Swiss lovers!

INDIAN WEDDING ON LAKE COMO

I just love Indian weddings. 

Their colors, their joie de vivre, all these ceremonies that make this magnificent culture special. I had the chance to collaborate with Heema from Travel Indulgence in London to realize Vaishali & Milesh’s dream on the shore of Lake Como. A day full of emotions!

FROM THE MORNING... TO THE NIGHT!

Indian weddings are different from our European culture. The Indian Wedding on Lake Como of our two beautiful newlyweds Vaishali & Milesh took place in two stages. In the morning, we made the outdoor Hindu religious ceremony followed by a vegetarian light lunch.

Our beautiful bride Vaishali got up early for her preparation!

In the evening, it was the gala evening. As soon as they arrived, the couple cut their wedding cake and then did their first dance. We had the pleasure to see a magnificent Bollywood type dance demonstrations. Then the “more classical” party could begin!

The guests were able to enjoy a typical Italian aperitif in the garden of the villa with a view of Lake Como. Then, the dinner took place under the structure still outdoors. The speeches were very emotional as you can see on the video. The party was then launched inside until the end of the night.

A day Vaishali & Milesh will remember for the rest of their lives.

A winter wedding in Stresa

A WINTER WEDDING IN STRESA

Thanks to the mild climate of Lake Maggiore, it is quite possible to organize a winter wedding in Stresa. This is the bet made by our spouses Alessandra & Roberto who wanted to get married after so many years and two beautiful children. A February day under the sign of a beautiful sun, romantic and soft…

 

A BEAUTIFUL ENCOUNTER

When they contacted me, two months before, I had a very good feeling with this magnificent couple. Being both very busy with their respective activities between Geneva, Alessandria and Vercelli, they needed help to organize this day. Despite the fact that I was 9 months pregnant on the date of the wedding, I embarked on this beautiful challenge.

A RETURN TO ORIGINS

Villa Frua in Stresa was an obvious choice of wedding venue, its warm internal rooms lending themselves perfectly to the event. Alessandra being from Gignese, a small village above Stresa, the couple chose to celebrate there the religious ceremony. In order to remember the grandmother of our bride, Jewish music was played by our organist accompanied by our talented violinist. That was very emotional!

THE WEDDING DAY

After the mass, the festivities therefore all took place at Villa Frua. Thanks to our trusted caterer, guests were greeted with a warm welcome drink, especially appreciated in this season. Alessandra and Roberto had chosen French music for the musical background of the reception in order to give a retro and elegant touch to their big day.

DECCORATION AND COLORS

The wedding palette is sage green and white, elegant and natural colors. Alessandra and Roberto wanted a simple, elegant atmosphere with wintry touches and light.

We are proud to say that this wedding has been published on Wedding Wonderland!

A “country” wedding in the nature

A “COUNTRY” WEDDING IN THE NATURE

Srecko and Alenka, our couple of Slovenian origin,  live in France sice many years. They were therefore looking for a wedding venue halfway between Slovenia and Lyon in order to reunite their families and friends.

I received their request a few months before the wedding. A real challenge!

This is how they chose the Borgo San Cristoforo. This domain immersed in nature allowed them to live their dream.

Srecko and Alenka not only wanted to say “I do” in front of their loved ones but also to offer them an amazing experience. In fact, we organized for them over several days: excursions, guided tours, Ferrari ride, surprise birthday of one of the children of the family… And even Alenka’s religious baptism the day before the wedding!

All this with a lot of love and emotions!

If you want A “country” wedding in the nature in the area of Lake Maggiore, Lake Como or Lake Orta in Italy, do not hesitate to contact me!

Our American couple who live near Boston are both very attached to Italy, a country dear to their hearts. The decision to get married in the Lakes area was clear, even if they did not know the region a few days before their wedding ! Thanks to our Wedding Planner, the organization has become completely remote and it was a nice surprise for the couple upon arrival, they  immediately fell in love with Lake Orta.

After a religious ceremony with Filipinos rites which recalled the origins of the bride, the festivities continued in private behind the walls of the Palace Ubertini. In the late afternoon, the couple and their guests took advantage of a private boat tour with aperitif on board …

He is Italian, she is American-Mexican and they live together in Los Angeles. They decided to unite their two families, their two cultures in a place dear to their heart, lake Orta.

After a religious ceremony in the Church San Nicolao of Sacro Monte, they had a romantic (and funny as well) time in Villa Pestalozza, an amazing venue with a panoramic view on the lake…
