The Italian Lake District is one of the most romantic settings in Italy. You can celebrate your big day in Lake Garda, Lake Como, Lake Maggiore or the more intimate Lake Orta. Incredible lakeside villas, secluded castles and panoramic chapels are scattered throughout the region providing ideal venues for breathtaking and stylish Italian weddings.
Lake Garda is the largest lake, with picturesque resorts such as Malcesine with its Castle, Riva del Garda situated on the water's edge, elegant Gardone Riviera and lively Torri del Benaco with its Lemon Grove.
Lake Como is one of the most scenic and known lakes with the stunning towns of Bellagio, Cernobbio and Varenna. What about a fairy tale beautiful venue such as Villa del Balbianello and exclusive Villa d'Este?
Lake Maggiore is another enchanting Lake with its Borromean islands and many quiet resorts along its lakeshore, such as the belle-époque towns of Stresa and Verbania Pallanza. You could host your reception in wonderful historical villas with amazing Italian Gardens.
Lake Orta is the smallest but maybe most fascinating. It has a romantic atmosphere, medieval village of Orta San Giulio is all pedestiran and traffice free, you could choose a rowing boat arrival for your ceremony and after that lovely trip to close St.Julius Island for stunning wedding pictures.
Here I am again to talk about Villa Rusconi Clerici, this time I will describe the gorgeous symbolic ceremony of Nicky & Chris. As flower designer, I have had the great pleasure and honour of handling the decoration of this special event, which took place in September in Verbania Pallanza on the shores of Lake Maggiore.
Nicky and Chris were dreaming of a wedding by the water, informal and elegant at the same time. An event that matched their personality, not too flashy but very fun. After evaluating various options, they opted for Villa Rusconi Clerici for its wonderful position right on the shores of Lake Maggiore.

It’s hard not falling in love with Malcesine Castle and above all, anytime I go there I’m again and again surprised by its beauty and the breathtaking views and landscapes.
September it’s a lovely month for a wedding on Lake Garda: the weather is mild and sunny, and all the guests can really enjoy the outdoor sceneries. Our lovely bride Hayley and his father decided to reach the Castle by a funny blue Ape Car, sipping a glass of champagne. The white dress shined under the sun and the groom Chris couldn’t wait to see her arriving!

It’s the 3rd of October 2009: the weather is mild and spectacular and all the family is very excited for Andrew and Severine wedding day! The Groom comes from Malta and the Bride is Suisse, they both love the Lakes and especially Lake Como.
The wedding organization started last winter and the first step to do was the choice of the Church.
When I first show Andrew and Severine Mezzegra Church, it was love at first sight!
The impressive terrace in front of the majestic Church, the atmosphere and the kindness of Don Luigi cancelled any doubts!
After the catholic ceremony, the newlyweds wanted to offer their guests the unique emotion of reaching the reception venue by boat, cruising between the incredible Lake Como landscapes and Villas.

In summer 2008 I had the pleasure to meet Amy and Tom for the first time. She is a lovely Irish girl and he is a handsome English guy. Such a great couple! After visiting many venues across Northern Lakes area they reached Orta San Giulio and they fell in love with that immediately.
Amy and Tom thought that Lake Orta incorporated the precise idea they had for an intimate and romantic wedding on the lake.
My first wedding of Summer Season 2009 was Amy and Tom’s: 3rd July 2009. Amy arrived some days before to settle in Orta and define some last details.
She spent some lovely days before the event, with her parents and family in a lovely villa on the lake that I often suggest to my couples. It is just in front of Ortello Gulf. And finally the wedding day came!
Amy and her father took a nice walk from the lovely house on the shores to reach village church. Tom, flower girls, purple dressed bridesmaids and all guests were all waiting for her there.
Lilac was the theme of whole wedding.
