			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last September I had the chance to plan a wonderful and unique wedding at Villa del Balbianello.<br />
You are probably wondering:  what could be even more unique at <a href="http://www.villabalbianello.com/" title="wedding at Villa del Balbianello">Villa del Balbianello</a> than Balbianello Villa itself?<br />
I&#8217;m going to tell you all! My lovely Norwegian couple was a <strong>Star Wars movie fan</strong>, and all the invited guests were too!<br />
The combination of Villa del Balbianello and Star Wars passion couldn’t be more exciting and extravagant and I was really excited to plan a wedding like this.<br />
<strong>So Hilde and Jean Erik decided to travel from Norway to Italy</strong> for their Big Day together with families and friends.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/SposiamoVi_00392.jpg" alt="Star Wars wedding at Balbianello Villa" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8304" /><br />

<img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/SposiamoVi_00437.jpg" alt="Star Wars wedding at Villa Balbianello Lake Como" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8309" /></p>
<p>We have to remember that <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/balbianello-villa-official-rental-fees/" title="official rental fees for Villa del Balbianello weddings">Villa del Balbianello</a> was the movie set of famous <strong>Star Wars Episode II &#8211; Attack of the Clones</strong>.<br />
Star Wars lovers surely know that this villa was named like <strong>Lake Retreat</strong> in the movie and it is where Padme and Anikin Skywalker hid while Obi One Kenobi traked down those responsible for attempting to Amidala&#8217;s life. But most of al,l for our story, it is where secret marriage of Anakin Skywalker and Amidala took place.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/SposiamoVi_00440.jpg" alt="outdoor wedding ceremony in Villa del Balbianello" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8305" /><br />
<img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/SposiamoVi_00426.jpg" alt="outdoor ceremony in Villa del Balbianello lake Como" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8306" /><br />
<img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/SposiamoVi_00416.jpg" alt="classical music at Villa Balbianello lake Como" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8307" /></p>
<p><strong>Hilde and Jean Erik</strong> chose for their staying luxurious Grand Hotel Tremezzo where both of them got and ready for the wedding while <strong>Morlotti photographer</strong> was there to take wonderful pictures of the event.<br />
Beautiful bride opted for an unusual and fancy dress short on the front and very long on the back: she really looked like a princess! <span id="more-8303"></span><br />
We cannot forget to mention our groom Jean Erik who was also very elegant is his morning suit.<br />
However the real surprise was the bridal party! They thought about involving three Star Wars movie characters as you can see in the pictures taken by <strong>Morlotti Studio</strong>. Aren&#8217;t they fun?<br />
They’ve beens surely the main characters immediately after the couple and they gave a special touch to all the event.<br />
All the guests wanted to a picture with them and their presence made lot of ‘rumor’ at <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/wedding-ceremony-in-villa-del-balbianello/" title="wedding ceremony in Villa del Balbianello">Villa del Balbianello</a> and inhabitants of the village clos by for all day.<br />
Their main role was escorting Hilde, who arrived from the lake by boat.<br />
Ceremony setting replicated exactely the famous movie scene, with red flowers and romantic lake view. A dream!</p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/SposiamoVi_01076.jpg" alt="wedding planners at Villa del Balbianello" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8312" /></p>
<p>An unforgettable atmosphere, Hilde and Jean Erik exchanged their mutual vows and rings accompanied by <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/wedding-string-quartet-italy.html" title="string quartet at Villa del Balbianello">classic music notes</a>.<br />
After the ceremony all the group moved to the Loggia for a toast and photo session until sunset.<br />
Everybody was astonished by the beauty of Villa del Balbianello and Lake Como landscapes. Time flew incredibly fast: it’s already time to jump on the boats and reach the reception dinner venue where the party continued till 2am in the morning.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/SposiamoVi_01157.jpg" alt="american wedding cake at Villa del Balbianello" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8313" /><br />

<p>From my point of view, as planner an event like this could be very challenging and fun to coordinate.<br />
I’m really looking for many more ‘Star Wars’ couples: I can’t wait for helping you making your dream comes true!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Lucia</strong> is a typical row boat once used at <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/hochzeit-in-italien/hochzeit-am-comersee-villa-teodolinda/" title="lake Como weddings">Lake Como</a> for transporting goods to the markets. It got famous in the well known romance written by <strong>Alessandro Manzoni</strong> <em>I Promessi sposi</em>, a story about spouses that had to outrun lots of hindrances in the 18th century before getting married at Lecco.<br />
Today some gentlemen do collect those old boats, restore them and rent them out for special occasions like marriages or row-competitions.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/getting-married-at-lake-como-bride-and-groom-arrive-by-traditional-row-boat-lucia/attachment/melaxe0080/" rel="attachment wp-att-8187"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/melaxe0080.jpg" alt="Wedding by LUCIA a typical Lake Como row boat" width="640" height="426" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8187" /></a></p>
<p>For <strong>Axel and Melanie</strong> we organized one of these old boats, got it decorated and had 2 strong men to row them 600 metres to <strong>Ossuccio</strong> with its really cute townhall. All guests were waiting and applauded at the arrival. As well the major awaited them under the historic arcades to start with the civil wedding ceremony.<br />
Sure that all majors in Italy have to read out the legal articles, but they do it with much pleasure. And often there are situations to laugh as it is not always very easy for the celebrant to pronounce all those foreign names and cities. So with this, all wedding ceremonies get a very soft and smiling touch, although they are legally accepted.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/getting-married-at-lake-como-bride-and-groom-arrive-by-traditional-row-boat-lucia/attachment/melaxe0026/" rel="attachment wp-att-8195"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/melaxe0026.jpg" alt="bracelet bouquet by Lake Como florist" width="640" height="426" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8195" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/getting-married-at-lake-como-bride-and-groom-arrive-by-traditional-row-boat-lucia/attachment/melaxe0161/" rel="attachment wp-att-8188"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/melaxe0161.jpg" alt="civil wedding ceremony in Ossuccio Town Hall lake Como" width="640" height="426" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8188" /></a></p>
<p>After the ceremony we arranged a toast in the garden below the arcades, just to have some sips of Prosecco and some light fingerfood, nicely prepared right next to the lake.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/getting-married-at-lake-como-bride-and-groom-arrive-by-traditional-row-boat-lucia/attachment/melaxe0242/" rel="attachment wp-att-8189"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/melaxe0242.jpg" alt="wedding toast with Prosecco and italian fingerfood on Lake Como" width="640" height="426" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8189" /></a></p>
<p>Then we proceeded by boat to the famous <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/hochzeit-in-italien/hochzeit-am-comer-see-und-die-villa-del-balbianello/" title="Villa del Balbianello weddings">Villa Balbianello</a> for some beautiful photos of bride and groom in the elegant garden of this villa. Nice to walk here where already successful films have been registered, like <strong>Ocean Eleven, Star Wars, James Bond</strong> etc.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/getting-married-at-lake-como-bride-and-groom-arrive-by-traditional-row-boat-lucia/attachment/melaxe0418/" rel="attachment wp-att-8190"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/melaxe0418.jpg" alt="wedding photo service in Villa Balbianello" width="640" height="426" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8190" /></a></p>
<p>Our photographer <strong>Julian Kanz</strong> had much fun to shoot Melanie and Axel in all parts of the pittoresque property. And the best is, that even all guests do enjoy this one-hour-stop as they can stroll through the gardens and relax at each corner with wonderful views over Lake Como.<br />

<p>Finally we drove back to the Hotel San Giorgio, where we arranged a wedding dinner with local food. But before starting with the dinner, all guests had 2 hours to relax and to refresh themselves. In the meantime it was our task to arrange the table decoration, all in white and green colors. Together with lampions, candles, torches to create a very typical summer party in the beginning of a hot July.</p>

<p>Coming from <strong>Germany</strong> and knowing what to expect in <strong>Italy</strong>, she is the perfect organizer between bride and groom and the Italian service partners. Correctness, flexibility and a easy hand to plan all details around a wedding make her work very appreciated.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/introducing-alessandra-fabi-lake-como-wedding-and-event-planner/" title="lake Como wedding planner">Lake Como planner</a> I’m very excited to tell you the fairy tale of this fabulous couple coming from far away to celebrate their wedding on our elegant Lake Como.<br />
Groom, Sigfrid, was born in <strong>Valtellina, Italy</strong> – not far at all from Lake Como &#8211; while pretty bride Wei-Ting and her family come all from <strong>Taiwan</strong> where the couple actually lives and work.<br />
They met each other in US about 8 years ago and since then, they have always been together. Isn&#8217;t it very romantic?<br />
Wei-Ting is absolutely in love with Italy and after having had a ceremony and party in Taiwan as well, they decided that definitely wanted an Italian wedding dream too.<br />
I as delighted to help them!</p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/SW-1.jpg" alt="Villa Balbianello wedding" width="640" height="426" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8082" /><br />

<p>When Wei-Ting and Sigfrid first saw <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/balbianello-villa-official-rental-fees/" title="Villa del Balbianello weddings">Balbianello Villa</a>, they had no doubt: this would have been their <strong>Italian wedding venue</strong>!<br />
And here we started the whole wedding planning. Groom was very active and enthusiast: it has been a real pleasure working together with them to built the perfect wedding day.<br />
We went through every single detail trying to make a mix of the 2 strong cultures: <strong>Italian one and Taiwan one</strong>.</p>

<p><strong>Hand-painted parasol</strong>, gifts for the guests (Chinese gift for the Italians and Italian gift for the Taiwanese) and all the atmosphere was a perfect combination of different customs for this unforgettable <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/lakecomo/lake-como-weddings.html" title="Lake Como Weddings">Lake Como wedding</a>. </p>

<p>Sigfrid and Wei-Ting Lake Como fairy tale began with a ‘cinematographic’ setting: the beautiful lake view ceremony, performed in  <strong>the terrace of the Star Wars movie</strong>!<br />
The guests arrived by boat. They picked-up the beautiful parasols and they and attended the ceremony handling the beautiful lace ceremony booklet with the red stamp reporting the names of the couple and the wedding date. This is another Chinese interesting custom!<br />
A special thank to the lovely musicians: they’ve been great! They created a perfect atmosphere for the ceremony! <span id="more-8081"></span></p>

<p>The celebration continued with a rich aperitif under the <em>Canfora Tree Terrace</em> where delicious drinks and food have been served while the couple took a lovely walk for their wedding pictures together with our great photographer <strong>Roberto Rapetti of SilverStars Photography</strong>.<br />
I take the opportunity to really thank him and his staff for the great job made with us during the whole season! </p>

<p>The dinner was planned under the magnificent <strong>Balbianello Loggia</strong>, overlooking Lake Como.<br />
Refined round tables, richly decorated with flowers crowns and floating candles, surprised the guests arriving to take their seats.</p>

<p>Being a small group I suggested bride and groom to change table at each course, in order to share their time with all the guests and they really loved this idea!<br />
During the night they had the opportunity to dine at all the tables and this was highly appreciated from the invited guests.<br />
The whole group really enjoined food, wines and impeccable service.</p>

<p>In the meanwhile the bride opted for a change of dress and wore her Chinese beautiful red bridal dress to show it to the Italian side of the family. She was simply gorgeous and ready for cutting the cake.<br />
The cake was very special indeed! A Modern, squared and finely decorated cake following the bride taste and indications.<br />
Cutting was made on the notes of her favorite Italian song: ‘A te’ by Italian signer Jovanotti.<br />
What a dream! </p>

<p>They both came from <strong>United States</strong> and chose to celebrate their special day on <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/lakecomo/lake-como-weddings.html" title="lake Como weddings">Lake Como</a> a real dream!<br />

The villa has a wide terraced garden that allow you the possibility to personalize it as you prefer on a special day like your wedding could be.</p>

<p>Jennifer and Theodore exchanged their marriage vows on a big terrace. Mountains sprang from the waters offering a perfect and romantic background for the ceremony.<br />
Jennifer reached her moved groom walking on a soft aisle covered with petals and then, under a gorgeous arch full of red coral flowers, they promised each other eternal love. <span id="more-7615"></span></p>

<p>The aperitif and light cocktail was served on a green meadow among secular trees giving the chance to bride and groom to mingle with their guests.<br />
After that the group reached area of the garden arranged for the dinner.</p>

<p>Every wedding has a theme and Jennifer and Theodore chose a really original one!<br />
They decided to put on each table a bowl with two goldfishes inside to represent their love and Theodore’s passion for fishing. A sweet and lovely idea!</p>

<p>The dinner buffet was delighted by a band, that emphasized with romantic music the most touching moments of the evening, like the cake cut or the dance between the groom and his mother.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Cat and Reza… Just like Janet and Ian!<br />
Do you remember about <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wedding-ceremonies/the-irresistible-charm-of-a-blessing-at-villa-d%e2%80%99este/" title="wedding at villa d'Este lake Como">Janet and Ian</a>? It was the first of a long series of weddings planned by <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/italian-wedding-planners.html" title="Italian Wedding Planners">Italian Lakes Wedding team</a> at <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/villa-d%e2%80%99este-timeless/" title="wedding at Villa d'Este">VILLA D&#8217;ESTE</a>, the amazing and vip location in <strong>Cernobbio</strong>, on Lake Como.<br />
On the footsteps of Janet and Ian, today we would love to show you another dream wedding set in this impressive jet set’s favourite destination on Como Lake.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/1582.jpg" alt="wedding planners in villa d&#039;este lake Como" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7209" /></p>
<p><strong>Cat is Russian and Reza is Persian</strong> and they live together in London.<br />
Some time ago, visiting Italian Lakes Wedding pages, they were so fascinated by <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/a-dreamy-wedding-at-villa-deste/" title="wedding planner in villa d'Este lake Como">Janet and Ian’s wedding</a>, planned by our team, that they decided that they would love to have a similar incredibly fascinating event.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/0611.jpg" alt="wedding planner in villa d&#039;este lake Como" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7203" /><br />
<img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/1196.jpg" alt="wedding at villa d&#039;este lake Como" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7202" /></p>
<p>Talented <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/bridalservices/italian-wedding-photographer.php?ORDERID=46" title="Reportage per gli Sposi wedding photography">photographer Carlo Guido Conti</a> was there for them to shoot Cat and Reza’s big day. You surely appreciated his wonderful photo session for <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-maggiore-weddings/nicky-chris-symbolic-ceremony-at-villa-rusconi-clerici/" title="wedding at Villa Rusconi lake Maggiore">Nick and Chris at Villa Rusconi on Lake Maggiore</a>. With regard to this, we anticipate you that we will soon come back on Lake Maggiore together with Carlo Conti, this time going till Locarno, in Switzerland, for another amazing wedding, Georg and Kiki’s one.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/0679.jpg" alt="wedding celebrant in villa d&#039;este lake Como" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7204" /></p>
<p>Cat and Reza got married in a wonderful day of mid September. Bride’s arrival was really fabulous: on a carriage towed by white horses!</p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/0763.jpg" alt="wedding photographer in villa d&#039;este lake Como" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7205" /></p>
<p>As for Janet and Ian, <strong>Cat and Reza’s ceremony</strong> took place on Villa’s meadow between the lake and the wonderful mosaic staircase that leads to the location’s upper area: a dream setting, made even more romantic by a <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/wedding-string-quartet-italy.html" title="String Quartet in Villa d'Este lake Como">string quartet</a> playing sweet melodies on the background.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/0812.jpg" alt="wedding ceremony in villa d&#039;este lake Como" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7206" /><br />

<p>For their ceremony, bride and groom chose an elegant floral arrangement: roses and white lisianthus. For bride’s and bridesmaids’ bouquet, Cat opted for bright colours, with pretty eye-catching little <strong>Callas and yellow Cymbidium orchids</strong>. <span id="more-7200"></span></p>

<p>At the end of ceremony, Cat and Reza enjoyed the unique scenario of the gardens of the villa where <strong>Carlo Guido Conti</strong> took his awesome pictures: images from a dream, that will last forever as an unforgettable memory of their Big Day. </p>

<p>As for Janet and Ian, the reception took place in the amazing <strong>Sala delle Colonne</strong> at Villa d’Este, in front of the lake. The centrepieces had the same bouquet colour and style, but were adorned with branches of contorted hazel arranged like branched candlesticks, with a lot of little candles. Really original!</p>

<p>The party reached its climax with the cut of a <strong>big wedding cake</strong>, which stood against the wonderful nocturnal view of Lake Como.<br />
And last, but not least, everybody <strong>danced till late night in villa’s disco!</strong></p>

They  got married on July 9th, a bright and warm summer day that they will not forget for the rest of their lives!</p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/nickjoss_312.jpg" alt="Royal wedding on Lake Como" width="640" height="420" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7043" /></p>
<p>They surely had a certain taste for lovely and good things and places so they opted for a wonderful <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/lakecomo/lake-como-weddings.html" title="lake Como weddings">wedding on Lake Como</a>.</p>
<p>Everything was planned to be perfect!<br />
We start from bride’s getting ready at <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/villa-d%e2%80%99este-timeless/" title="wedding in Villa d'Este">Villa d’Este</a>, the wonderful hotel famous all over the world with stunning view on the lake shores.<br />
And we will end with the party in an amazing <strong>private villa near Cernobbio</strong>.<br />
But let&#8217;s go step by step.</p>

<p>Nick and Joss decided to celebrate their special ceremony in lovely <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wedding-music/a-string-quartet-to-lake-como-beach-club/" title="wedding at church of Ascensione in Cadenabbia">church in Cadenabbia</a> just on the Como Lake’s shores. Here they soaked in a  magical and romantic atmosphere  created by wonderful floral decorations, white candles and the bright and warm colours of walls, together with a stunning red lacunar ceiling. <span id="more-7042"></span></p>

<p>After the ceremony, a pleasant and cheerful boat trip led the newlyweds and their guests to the reception venue: an ancient villa with a big terraced garden that overlooks the lake!</p>

<p>This amazing villa gives the chance to choose the setting of your reception: inside, among old marvellous decorations that enrich its big and ancient rooms, or the outdoor space “breathing” the romantic lake atmosphere.<br />
Joss and Nick opted for this option!</p>

<p>They were blessed with a wonderful day, so the guests were able to enjoy the outdoors, gazing the breathtaking panorama during dinner and revealing in the cool lake breeze while dancing.</p>

<p>At the end of the party a white convertible Rolls Royce waited for the newlyweds. An original way to say good-bye to their guests and throw the <em>Kate Middleton</em> style bouquet to the girls!</p>
<p>What do you think?<br />
Could we say that Joss and Nick had their royal wedding too?<br />
We do think so!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Under the strange and special light of a cloudy sky with gorgeous reflections on Como Lake&#8217;s waters, <strong>Jenny and Giles&#8217; wedding</strong> took place. They made a very long trip to make this dream come true. Jenny comes from <strong>Singapore</strong> and Giles comes from <strong>England</strong>, but they both live in Singapore. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/gil_00003.jpg" alt="wedding in Bellagio lake Como" width="475" height="714" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6759" /></p>
<p>The bride chose as accommodation a <strong>luxury hotel in Bellagio</strong>, with a stunning sight on <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/lakecomo/lake-como-weddings.html" title="Wedding in Lake Como">Lake Como</a>. Here, between ancient rooms full of history and precious furniture, bride got ready with gorgeous make up and wearing her wonderful Vera Wang dress. </p>

<p>Three different groups left Bellagio by boat leading ceremony venue: <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/balbianello-villa-luxury-and-style-on-lake-como/" title="wedding in Villa del Balbianello">Villa del Balbianello</a>.</p>

<p>The first group was made up by groom and his best men and ushers, who had the important task to verify that everything were perfect&#8230; a great help for the <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-como-weddings/introducing-alessandra-fabi-lake-como-wedding-and-event-planner/" title="Lake Como wedding planner">wedding planner</a>, thank you very much guys!<br />

<p>The second group was made up by all the guests, coming from all over the world, not only Singapore and England, but also Taiwan, China, Scotland, South Africa, Norway and many other countries: a really international entourage!</p>

<p>And the last, but absolutely not the least, was obviously bridal boat, with her father and bridesmaids.</p>

<p>After a thrilling ceremony under the stunning Balbianello Loggia, overlooking Lake Como, cocktail, organized on one of the wonderful terrace of this unique Villa, waited for the newlyweds and their guests. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here we are, finally, with the description of the wonderful wedding of <strong>Anya &amp; Misha</strong>, that we anticipated a few weeks ago.</p>

<p>It was a very special wedding.<br />
First of all because of the date: the same of <strong>Kate and William&#8217;s wedding</strong>, and then for the venues they chose for their staying!</p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/MP14285-Small.jpg" alt="Kate and William&#039;s wedding on Lake Como" width="640" height="426" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6397" /><br />

<p>The newlywed, in fact, spent their holiday and got ready in Villa d&#8217;Este.<br />
A really exclusive and relaxing place to spend your time while waiting the fateful moment to come! <span id="more-6376"></span></p>

<p>The ceremony and the wedding reception took place in a magnificent <strong>private villa in Cernobbio</strong>, that was decorated in a superb way for the occasion.<br />
The big terrace overlooking <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/lakecomo/lake-como-weddings.html" title="lake Como Weddings">Lake Como</a>, was covered by real grass and wonderful floral decorations, with a big huppah in the center, full of white flowers and candles. </p>

<p>Guests were welcome by an unusual cocktail before the ceremony. An original way to host friends and relatives waiting for the bride to come.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/DSC_1321-Small.jpg" alt="catering Villa Cernobbio wedding" width="640" height="428" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6409" /></p>
<p>And then &#8220;the moment&#8221; came. The bride, beautiful in her precious vintage dress of a famous designer, arrived to say &#8220;I will&#8221; to her thrilled groom.</p>

<p>After the ceremony the wedding reception took place in an elegant gala marquee.<br />
Here, after happy games and dancing guided by international deejays, the newlyweds and their guests could enjoy a very exclusive show: the famous singer <strong>In-grid</strong> sang only for them, in order to make the atmosphere even happier and festive.</p>
