			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I would love to tell you about one of the most original couples I had last wedding season.<br />
<strong>Niamh and Stephen</strong> are a wonderful couple living in <strong>Kuwait</strong>. Niamh as you can tell from her name comes from <strong>Ireland</strong> and Stephen is <strong>French</strong>.<br />
They <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/lakeorta/lake-orta-weddings.html" title="lake Orta weddings">fell in love with Lake Orta</a> having a look to our web site and seeing all the weddings we planned over here so they decided to get married here without coming here before for a visit.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/img_4961b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8260"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/IMG_4961b.jpg" alt="pre wedding photographs in Italy" width="640" height="423" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8260" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/img_4996b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8263"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/IMG_4996b.jpg" alt="pre wedding photography in Italy" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8263" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/img_4931b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8264"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/IMG_4931b.jpg" alt="pre wedding photographs on lake Orta Italy" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8264" /></a></p>
<p>For this reason they decided to have a little <strong>pre wedding photography service</strong>, just the two of them to live and explore the little romantic and charming corners of Orta village!<br />
They simply took a walk with their friend <a href="http://www.fwadphotography.com/frontpage.htm" title="Fwad Afzal photographer">Fwad Afzal Photographer</a> in Orta village and got magic pictures that they will never forget!<br />
Have a look at them isn&#8217;t it a great idea?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/or5b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8269"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Or5b.jpg" alt="pre wedding photography on Lake Orta Italy" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8269" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/48b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8270"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/48b.jpg" alt="ivory beige bridesmaids dresses" width="640" height="449" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8270" /></a></p>
<p>Niamh and Stephen got married the day after, our last wedding of 2011 summer season.<br />
Niamh was simply beautiful in her romantic dress and have a look to the four bridesmaids too in ivory beige long dresses! <span id="more-8259"></span><br />
The dresses matched perfectly the color of the flowers Niamh chose for them, ivory cream roses and gerberas created by <a href="http://lapiccolaselva.com/" title="italian wedding floral designers">La Piccola Selva</a> with the other floral arrangements of the day.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/or-6b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8271"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Or-6b.jpg" alt="civil ceremony in Villa Bossi lake Orta" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8271" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/or15b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8272"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Or15b.jpg" alt="ivory gerberas bridal bouquet" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8272" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/or16b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8277"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Or16b.jpg" alt="civil wedding ceremony in Villa Bossi lake Orta" width="640" height="436" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8277" /></a></p>
<p>Civil Ceremony was held in <strong>Villa Bossi, Orta town hall</strong> and Niamh and Stepehen were so lucky to have a wonderful weather and many guests present to this special day, about 100 guests!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/or3b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8278"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Or3b.jpg" alt="lake Orta wedding planners" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8278" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/or12b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8279"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Or12b.jpg" alt="lake Orta weddings" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8279" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/or14b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8280"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Or14b.jpg" alt="lake Orta wedding" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8280" /></a></p>
<p>After a little walk in the little roads of Orta with some drinks for guests and some more fun pictures in the village the whole group took the boats to take a lovely trip on the Lake and then reached the <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/bridalservices/italian-restaurant-for-weddings.php?ORDERID=76" title="restaurant on St Julius island">restaurant on St. Julius Island</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/or4b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8281"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Or4b.jpg" alt="wedding at San Giulio restaurant" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8281" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/6189b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8282"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/6189b.jpg" alt="wedding reception at San Giulio restaurant" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8282" /></a></p>
<p>In our older posts we showed smaller parties to this rustic restaurant by the shores but the wide terrace can fit <strong>up to 100-120 guests</strong> and this is what happened for Niamh and Stepen&#8217;s wedding!</p>
<p>A great dinner and party to follow with a huge <strong>chocolate cake</strong> too!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/re-wedding-photographs-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/6319b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8283"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/6319b.jpg" alt="wedding reception at San Giulio restaurant lake Orta" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8283" /></a></p>
<p>Our couple took also the chance to have a lovely walk on the Island to have some other great shots in this quiet and special place: <strong>St. Julius Island.</strong></p>
<p>If you really like wedding pictures Niamh and Stephen idea could be surely great to keep a special memory of your day.<br />
A intimate shooting on the day before, casual relaxed and romantic and some great shots on your wedding day with your friends and family a memory that will last a lifetime!</p>
<p>A special thanks to <strong>Fwad Afzal photographer</strong> &#8211; Niamh and Stephen&#8217;s good friend and photographer who kindly provided these lovely shots for our post!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You&#8217;ve already decided for every detail of your special day, but you are looking for something more to make your wedding a fun day…  </p>
<p>Do you want a pure Italian touch of originality? What about a special entry and exit?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/italian-wedding-car-hire-on-lake-garda/attachment/foto-2-3/" rel="attachment wp-att-8232"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/foto-2.jpg" alt="ape calessino wedding in Malcesine" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8232" /></a></p>
<p>You can choose a lovely <strong>APE-calessino</strong> to move through the narrow cobblestone streets of small villages on <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/lakegarda/lake-garda-weddings.html" title="lake Garda weddings">Lake Garda</a>!<br />
<em>Calessino</em> was born in Italy in 1948 as a three-wheeled transformation of the famous <strong>Vespa</strong>. Word &#8220;calessino&#8221; comes from its look. As a matter of fact it is very similar to a horse carriage, a sort of sofa on wheels finished in wood and covered with a semi-circular bellows awning.<br />
The model was an breaking success: its small size made it the ideal vehicle to move in the ancient villages and seaside localities all over Italy, often characterized by narrow and steep alleys.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/italian-wedding-car-hire-on-lake-garda/attachment/foto1/" rel="attachment wp-att-8235"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/foto1.jpg" alt="ape calessino wedding in Malcesine lake Garda" width="636" height="454" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8235" /></a></p>
<p>In the following years it became a great character of the <strong>Dolce Vita years</strong>, carrying the Hollywood stars around the islands and the most beautiful places on Mediterranean coast.<br />
From Italy it reached  Asian countries becoming a real bestseller. Perhaps because of its similarity to the exotic rickshaw, it spread across the south-east Asia as a means of public transportation and it is now known as <em>tuk-tuk</em>, a name deriving from onomatopoeic characteristic noise generated by its motor.</p>
<p>With its sixties design, it relive today the unforgettable charm of <em>La Dolce Vita</em> and it offers you a great opportunity to give a vintage and characteristic touch to your special day, like in <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/malcesine-castle’s-beauty/" title="wedding in Malcesine Castle">Hayley and Chis&#8217; wedding in Malcesine</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/italian-wedding-car-hire-on-lake-garda/attachment/img_2466/" rel="attachment wp-att-8233"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/IMG_2466.jpg" alt="ape calessino wedding in Malcesine Lake Garda" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8233" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/italian-wedding-car-hire-on-lake-garda/attachment/img_2377/" rel="attachment wp-att-8234"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/IMG_2377.jpg" alt="ape calessino hire in Malcesine Lake Garda" width="475" height="603" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8234" /></a></p>
<p>I love when also cars fit right in with the theme of the wedding!<br />
Italian design offers many other solutions&#8230;of course <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/vintage-cars/fiat-500-wedding-hire/" title="fiat 500 wedding car hire">Fiat 500 is a real Italian style icon</a>.</p>

<p>So tiny and fun, it can be a great bridal car to take you from the church to your wedding reception&#8230; maybe dragging tin cans as tradition! </p>
<p>What&#8217;s your style? A <strong>sports car</strong> for a romantic getaway for just the two of you around the lake, a vintage car to reach one of the many <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/lake-garda-castle-weddings/" title="lake Garda wedding castles">castles on Lake Garda</a>, or even a <strong>fun Buggy</strong> to surprise your guests?  </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>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>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lucia ist ein Ruderboot vom <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/hochzeit-in-italien/hochzeit-am-comersee-villa-teodolinda/" title="hochzeit at Comer see Italien">Comersee</a>, das vor allem für Transporte im 18. Jahrhundert von Arbeitern und Bauern genutzt wurde. Berühmt wurde die <em>Lucia</em> im Roman von <strong>Alessandro Manzoni</strong> <em>I Promessi Sposi</em>, worin es um ein junges Brautpaar geht, das nur über viele Hindernisse schliesslich heiraten konnte. Und so findet man heute wieder einige der alten Lucias, die von Liebhabern aufgefrischt und seetauglich gemacht wurden und bei ganz besonderen Anlässen zur Verfügung stehen.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/hochzeit-in-italien/hochzeit-am-comersee/heiraten-am-comer-see-mit-traditioneller-vorfahrt-des-brautpaares-in-der-handgeruderten-lucia/attachment/melaxe0066/" rel="attachment wp-att-8209"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/melaxe0066.jpg" alt="Heiraten am Comer See" width="475" height="713" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8209" /></a></p>
<p>Für <strong>Axel und Melanie</strong> hatten wir uns dieses besondere Transportmittel ausgedacht, um sie von Ihrem Hotel ca. 600m weiter bis vor das entzückende Standesamt von Ossuccio am Comer See zu rudern. Am Standesamt standen auch schon alle Gäste, die der Lucia und ihrer besonderen Fracht einen herzlichen Empfang bereiteten.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/hochzeit-in-italien/hochzeit-am-comersee/heiraten-am-comer-see-mit-traditioneller-vorfahrt-des-brautpaares-in-der-handgeruderten-lucia/attachment/melaxe0013/" rel="attachment wp-att-8210"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/melaxe0013.jpg" alt="hochzeit am Comersee" width="475" height="713" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8210" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/hochzeit-in-italien/hochzeit-am-comersee/heiraten-am-comer-see-mit-traditioneller-vorfahrt-des-brautpaares-in-der-handgeruderten-lucia/attachment/melaxe0115/" rel="attachment wp-att-8211"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/melaxe0115.jpg" alt="hochzeit am Comersee Italien" width="475" height="713" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8211" /></a></p>
<p>Der Bürgermeister wartete unter den historischen Arkaden, um die Trauung zu zelebrieren. Zum Glück ist das Amtshaus in <strong>Ossuccio</strong> so klein, dass die Gemeinde beschlossen hat, die standesamtlichen Trauungen im Freien unter den Torbögen abzuhalten und das ergibt natürlich eine ganz besondere Atmosphäre.<br />
Natürlich lesen die italienischen Bürgermeister vor allem die gesetzlichen Eheartikel, aber einige persönliche Willkommensworte und Glückwünsche an einem so besonderen Platz werden ebenfalls ausgesprochen. Und dann ist natürlich auch das Übersetzen der italienischen Texte oft mit einem Lacher begleitet, geschweige denn, wenn der Bürgermeister über schwer auszusprechende deutsche Nachnamen und Städte stolpert. Alle Trauungen in Italien erhalten damit einen ganz besonderen lockeren Touch. </p>

<p>Nach der Trauung gab es im Gärtchen vor der Mauer am See einen netten Umtrunk, einfach Prosecco, Früchte und einige leckere <strong>stuzzicchini</strong>, so nennt man das typisch <strong>italienische Fingerfood</strong>.<br />

<p>Anschliessend ging es per Boot weiter in die berühmte <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/hochzeit-in-italien/hochzeit-am-comer-see-und-die-villa-del-balbianello/" title="hochzeit zum Villa del Balbianello">Villa Balbianello</a>, wo schon viele Kassenschlager aus der Filmszene gedreht wurden. Zum Beispiel Starwars, James Bond, Ocean Eleven und sogar eine Soap-Opera aus dem deutschen Fernsehen drehte hier etliche Filmtage. Ganz wunderbar also, wenn dann ein Brautpaar hier auch Traumfotos schiessen kann. Unser Fotograf <strong>Julian Kanz</strong> war hier ganz begeistert und konnte sich vor schönen Motiven kaum retten. Nicht nur wegen der Traumkulisse, sondern auch weil Melanie und Axel ganz locker dabei waren und mit viel Spass alle Fotowünsche vom unermüdlichen Julian mitmachten.<br />
Das Gute an diesem Programmpunkt ist, dass man gleichzeitig auch die Gäste versorgt hat. Denn ein Spaziergang in dem englisch angelegten Garten mit quasi rundum Aussicht auf sensationelle See-Eindrücke ist für jedermann ein willkommener Genuss.</p>

<p>Per Boot, diesmal ein privates Motorboot für alle Gäste, ging es zurück zum Hotel San Giorgio in Lenno. Wichtig waren die dann folgenden 2 Stunden Ruhepause, damit sich Gäste, aber auch das Brautpaar selbst ein wenig ausruhen konnte – sehr stilecht vor allem der Bräutigam in seinen Ruhemomenten !!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are back to <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/bridalservices/italian-restaurant-for-weddings.php?ORDERID=84" title="Orta Beach Club Wedding">Orta Beach Club</a> the new, fresh informal wedding venue on Lake Orta.<br />
We are sure you remember that we introduced it few month ago in summer right after its inauguration: <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/orta-beach-club-restaurant/" title="Orta Beach Club Wedding restaurant">ORTA BEACH CLUB… a dreamy frame for your wedding by the shores</a>.</p>
<p>Many among the images posted come from the wedding of a lovely couple coming from Milan: <strong>Laura and Andrea</strong>.<br />
Today we would love see some more details of Laura and Andrea&#8217;s <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/lakeorta/lake-orta-weddings.html" title="lake Orta weddings">wedding on Lake Orta</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/wedding-venues-lake-orta-weddings/orta-beach-club-wedding-in-italy/attachment/8301/" rel="attachment wp-att-8154"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/8301.jpg" alt="Orta Beach Club Wedding in Italy" width="475" height="713" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8154" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/wedding-venues-lake-orta-weddings/orta-beach-club-wedding-in-italy/attachment/8270/" rel="attachment wp-att-8173"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/8270.jpg" alt="outdoor reception venues on Lake Orta Italy" width="475" height="713" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8173" /></a></p>
<p>First of all we need to explain the title for this post!<br />
It was a bet because Laura and Andrea <strong>booked Orta Beach Club before its inauguration</strong> with all the risks you could imagine.<br />
It was a winning bet because it turned out in a great choice from every point of view!<br />
Let&#8217;s go step by step!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/wedding-venues-lake-orta-weddings/orta-beach-club-wedding-in-italy/attachment/img_8070b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8156"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/IMG_8070b.jpg" alt="lake Orta wedding venues" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8156" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/wedding-venues-lake-orta-weddings/orta-beach-club-wedding-in-italy/attachment/img_8519b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8155"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/IMG_8519b.jpg" alt="lake Orta weddings" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8155" /></a></p>
<p>Laura and Andrea come from Peschiera Borromeo a small village close to Milan. It is famous for its WWF natural park.<br />
Many years ago it was the hunting reserve of Borromeo Counts, the same noble family of <strong>Borromeo Islands and Stresa</strong>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/wedding-venues-lake-orta-weddings/orta-beach-club-wedding-in-italy/attachment/img_7780/" rel="attachment wp-att-8161"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/IMG_7780.jpg" alt="Beach Club wedding in Italy" width="475" height="713" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8161" /></a></p>
<p>For their civil ceremony Laura and Andrea had a look to many venues around Milan and lakes but nothing was more beautiful than <strong>Villa Bossi</strong>!<br />
They fell in love with it! <span id="more-8153"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/wedding-venues-lake-orta-weddings/orta-beach-club-wedding-in-italy/attachment/img_8549b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8162"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/IMG_8549b.jpg" alt="Villa Bossi Orta wedding planner" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8162" /></a></p>
<p>Bride arriving by boat, the garden on the shores and <strong>St. Julius Island</strong> as background was surely the perfect frame and Laura and Andrea decided very quickly to book.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/wedding-venues-lake-orta-weddings/orta-beach-club-wedding-in-italy/attachment/8139b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8163"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/8139b.jpg" alt="lake Orta wedding planners" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8163" /></a></p>
<p>Laura and Andrea looked around for their reception venue, they were looking for something elegant but informal and they really did not want something too elegant such a villa or a restaurant in the village.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/wedding-venues-lake-orta-weddings/orta-beach-club-wedding-in-italy/attachment/8394b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8164"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/8394b.jpg" alt="wedding at Orta Beach Club restaurant" width="640" height="640" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8164" /></a></p>
<p>By chance they drove side of <strong>one of the beaches close to Orta San Giulio</strong> and they discovered that the beach club was going to open soon!<br />
After meeting very professional <strong>Samuele and Luca, venue managers</strong>, Laura and Andrea decided that <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/bridalservices/italian-restaurant-for-weddings.php?ORDERID=84" title="Beach Club Weddings in Italy">Orta Beach Club</a> was the one!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/wedding-venues-lake-orta-weddings/orta-beach-club-wedding-in-italy/attachment/8346b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8167"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/8346b.jpg" alt="Orta Beach Club restaurant" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8167" /></a></p>
<p>Laura and Andrea&#8217;s bid day was planned for <strong>6 August 2011</strong> a wonderful sunny day!<br />
After the ceremony bride and groom took a walk in the lovely and romantic little roads of Orta. <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/bridalservices/italian-wedding-photographer.php?ORDERID=43" title="lake Orta wedding photographer">Enrico Mocci one of our great photographers on Lake Orta</a> took the photos of this special events and you can see them here.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you travel along the North shore of  beautiful <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/lake-bracciano/lake-bracciano-weddings.html" title="lake Bracciano weddings">lake Bracciano</a> , you will find the lovely little village of <strong>Trevignano</strong>, a medieval picturesque town, few km North of <a href="http://www.italianromewedding.com/" title="wedding planner in Rome">Rome</a>, which is a real pearl of the lake.</p>

<p>Built on a volcanic lava cliff drop, the village is located on a little gulf, the secondary crater of an ancient volcano.<br />
The <strong>medieval Borgo</strong>, is well preserved and the beautiful tree-lined promenade that stretches for about 3 miles, with many bars, restaurants and beach resorts,  are the perfect setting for a relaxing italian summer vacation and above all for a <strong>romantic Italian wedding</strong>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-bracciano-weddings/wedding-in-trevignano-on-lake-bracciano-shores/attachment/_zig1757-1/" rel="attachment wp-att-8117"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/ZIG1757-1.jpg" alt="wedding in Trevignano lake Bracciano" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8117" /></a></p>
<p>If you are thinking of a <strong>civil marriage</strong>, it can be celebrated in the beautiful town hall located in the main piazza, right in front of the lake.<br />
The hall is richly decorated with beautiful frescoes and from the window of the ancient palazzo, you may admire the amazing landscape of the lake.</p>

<p>Your wedding pictures set may begin from the church square and from the adjacent <strong>Orsini’s Rocca</strong>, the ruins of a 1200 fortress that with its elevated position offers stunning views of Lake.</p>
<p>Walking down to the dock, you could have have an <strong>charming aperitif on a motorboat</strong> that making the tour of the lake. You will give the chance to yourself and your guests to share a romantic sunset between crystal waters watching the beauties of the lake such as the huge <strong>Odescalchi castle</strong>, from a special point of view.</p>

<p>Once back to the village, you have different choices for your reception. You can also opt for a <strong>typical Italian restaurant overlooking the lake</strong>, with gourmet Italian food and the best wines we have to offer or a <strong>private villa</strong> right on the grass of the lake, maybe into the nature reserve surrounded by trees and  a quiet atmosphere.</p>
<p>Anyway, if your dream is having an elegant wedding on the shore of an unspoiled lake, with sun-touched hills reflected in its mirror-like surface, then do yourself a favor and make plans today to hold your wedding in the ancient and <strong>romantic town of Trevignano</strong>.</p>

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>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><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/WED190H059.jpg" alt="wedding photographer at Villa Balbianello" width="475" height="713" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8104" /><br />

<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>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A Wedding day is a special day. Everyone wish to make it unique and unforgettable.<br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/lakegarda/lake-garda-weddings.html" title="lake Garda weddings">Lake Garda</a> enchanted poets and painters for centuries with its beautiful and different landscapes- It offers fascinating solutions for the ceremony of your dreams.</p>
<p><strong>Lake Garda East coast</strong> is embellished by many castles and crenellated cities.<br />
This obviously is explained by the ancient history of this side of the lake and has its origins in the proximity to the elegant Verona.</p>
<p>Scala dynasty ruled the city for 125 years and extended its dominions to Lake Garda, leaving many historical testimonies.</p>
<p>One of the most famous is the <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/malcesine-castle%E2%80%99s-beauty/" title="castle of Malcesine weddings">castle of Malcesine</a>.<br />
Your Wedding in Malcesine will be certainly wonderful. You will enjoy this small village on the northern shore of the lake that seems suspended in time. It is a small village with cobbled streets that climb up a gentle slope until reaching the fortress overlooking the lake.</p>

<p>The castle hosts legal civil ceremonies in the incomparable setting of the tower: deep hues of the sky merging with blue of the lake will be the perfect background to your exchange of promises.<br />
Malcesine can be visited by foot or by a funny <strong>“Ape Calessino” (tuk-tuk)</strong>. You get lost in the labyrinth of alleyways between colourful houses and ancient palaces and to discover beautiful backgrounds for your wedding pictures. <span id="more-8038"></span></p>

<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/wedding-in-malcesine-lake-garda/" title="wedding in Malcesine lake Garda">Malcesine</a> small port is definitely one of the most lovely glimpses with its colourful boats waiting to take off the placid waters of the lake. From here you can embark on an ancient and elegant sailing ship called &#8220;the lady of the lake&#8221; , for an exciting tour of the lake sipping good Italian wines.</p>

<p>For just the two of you or your dearest guests a unique experience could be a dinner on the deck to enjoy the unforgettable sunset over the lake from a very privileged position.<br />
Just south of Malcesine you find another small village set on the shore of the lake.<br />

<p>Lake Garda has an ancient tradition of lemon trees growing. Its mild climate all year  allowed the spread of this fragrant and delicate plants. You can see by the lake many lemon green houses. They are built with large pillars and wooden frames between high stone walls which served to protect plants in winter. <br />
<a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/wedding-in-torri-del-benaco-and-bardolino/" title="wedding to Torri del Benaco castle">Torri del Benaco Castle</a> is one of the oldest and largest lemon houses of the lake. Inside the building, between fragrant cedar, lemon and tangerine trees, you will find one of the most beautiful frames that may exist for your <strong>civil wedding</strong>, with the sky as roof.</p>

<p>Continuing down the coast you will meet the crenellated walls of <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/lazise-the-medieval-pearl-of-lake-garda/" title="Lazise weddings Lake Garda">Lazise</a>. It is oldest municipality in Italy. It is a small village rich in history that in a short walk encloses a tiny port, a beautiful Romanesque church and the peculiar building of ancient custom (Dogana).</p>

<p>Century ago it represented the  border between Lombardy and the Venetian Republic. <br />
Today the bride can get on foot under its massive arches, while the groom will wait for her for their <strong>Civil Ceremony on the lake</strong>.<br />
It also allows you to arrive also by boat thanks to its great position. <br />
After your ceremony your welcome drink will be offered just by the lake.<br />
Lake&#8217;s romantic lights of the evening will be the backdrop to your fine dinner with fine Italian wines.</p>
<p>In the Southern part of Lake Garda, on a small peninsula that stretches towards the vastness of the lake there is maybe the most beautiful pearl: <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/sirmione-wedding-planners/" title="Sirmione wedding planners">Sirmione</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/lake-garda-castle-weddings/attachment/15a/" rel="attachment wp-att-8062"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/15a.jpg" alt="Sirmione castle weddings" width="640" height="480" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8062" /></a><br />

<p>It is known since the days of Catullo for its precious thermal waters. It is enclosed within the ancient walls of the Scaliger fortress. As in ancient times, you still reach it across the drawbridge, walking along the narrow streets, going from the castle to the beautiful Romanesque church. <br />
<strong>Church of Sirmione</strong> is certainly the most beautiful church on the lake, with its colonnade and courtyard overlooking the lake.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/lake-garda-castle-weddings/attachment/17/" rel="attachment wp-att-8064"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/17.jpg" alt="weddings at church of Sirmione" width="640" height="426" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8064" /></a><br />

<p>For your civil ceremony you have at your disposal the colourful <strong>Palazzo Callas</strong> in the small main square. For symbolic blessing you can choose the charming garden of an elegant neoclassical villa, with ancient statues and century-old trees. <br />
What makes Sirmione unique is that here in anyway you will choose to celebrate your special day, day before and day after, it will be always a special event thanks to the many activities and possibilities that this location offers to enjoy your Italian days.<br />
 You can find excellent restaurants where you will taste real <strong>Italian cuisine</strong> and great wines, fun boat trips to discover the most beautiful places, relaxing hours to spend to the spa to pamper yourself gazing at the lake.</p>
<p>Last but not least among the <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-garda-weddings/discovering-the-magic-garda-peninsulas/" title="Lake Garda castles wedding">castles of Lake Garda</a>, impressive <strong>fortress of Lonato</strong> offers a truly unique setting to celebrate your wedding. This evocative venue offers a unique setting for your wedding within its ancient walls.<br />
You can celebrate your <strong>legal civil ceremony</strong> in it and then entertain your guests with an elegant <strong>wedding reception</strong>, all in one place.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/destination-weddings/the-magic-atmosphere-of-lake-garda/" title="destination weddings Lake Garda">Lake Garda</a> is very close and it can be seen between crenellations on a clear day. The most beautiful moment to admire this venue is right after sunset when a thousand candles light up.<br />
 After the civil ceremony you can walk among olive trees for an <strong>Italian aperitif</strong> and just after your party can follow to the upper quarter of the castle to dine in a spacious lawn under the stars.<br />
The atmosphere created by these ancient walls lit by torches can not be described, it should be lived!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the last few years <strong>Winter Weddings</strong> are getting more popular and today we would love to speak about a very intimate and romantic one.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/winter-wedding-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/_dsc0419b/" rel="attachment wp-att-7996"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/DSC0419b.jpg" alt="winter wedding on lake Orta" width="640" height="426" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7996" /></a><br />

<p><strong>Barry and Novi</strong> are two lovely guys coming from Indonesia and living in <strong>Netherlands</strong>.<br />
They wanted a very intimate and romantic setting for their winter wedding&#8230;. or better for their <strong>Christmas Wedding</strong> as they got married on December 18th!<br />
They chose Lakes districts!<br />
Some may think that lakes in winter could be less beautiful than in warm moths but for those who love intimate romantic and solitary spots they could be the prefect choice.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/winter-wedding-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/_dsc0006b/" rel="attachment wp-att-7998"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/DSC0006b.jpg" alt="winter wedding dress" width="640" height="426" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7998" /></a><br />

<p>Berry and Novi wanted an intimate event so they invited only their parents and Novi&#8217;s sister.<br />
They decided to stay in <strong>Orta</strong> for the getting ready and celebratory meal.<br />
But for their religious ceremony they opted for a very special spot <strong>Sacro Monte of Ghiffa</strong> on Lake Maggiore. <span id="more-7995"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/winter-wedding-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/_dsc0378b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8006"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/DSC0378b.jpg" alt="wedding to Sacro Monte of Ghiffa" width="640" height="426" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8006" /></a></p>
<p>After Novi got ready in her stunning <strong>dress with white fur</strong> on her shoulder we all reached Sacred Monte of Ghiffa.<br />
On a sunny winter day the sky on the lake can be clear like crystal and landscape just unique the perfect frame for wedding pictures.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/winter-wedding-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/img_2197b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8007"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/IMG_2197b.jpg" alt="wedding ceremony to Sacro Monte church Lake Maggiore" width="640" height="427" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8007" /></a></p>
<p>An intimate catholic ceremony was held inside the beautiful church with stunning frescos on the ceilings and a lovely sunset outside waiting for bride and groom.</p>

<p>A little touch of modernity in this wonderful historical and natural context!<br />
Have a look to our friendly Don Alberto celebrating the marriage mass with an&#8230; <strong>iPad</strong>! Isnt&#8217; it a great idea?</p>

<p>After some pictures overlooking <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/lakemaggiore/lake-maggiore-weddings.html" title="lake Maggiore weddings">Lake Maggiore</a> we drove back to <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/lakeorta/lake-orta-weddings.html" title="lake orta weddings">Lake Orta</a> for some other pictures by night in the little village of Orta.<br />
Despite the cold weather Novi and Barry really wanted to have some shots in the village decorated for Christmas with romantic Christmas lights!<br />
Have you ever seen Orta at Christmas? It is so romantic!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/lake-orta-weddings/winter-wedding-on-lake-orta-italy/attachment/_dsc0437b/" rel="attachment wp-att-8015"><img src="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/DSC0437b.jpg" alt="lake Orta wedding photographers" width="640" height="426" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8015" /></a></p>
<p>For their celebratory meal Barry and Novi choose <a href="http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/bridalservices/italian-restaurant-for-weddings.php?ORDERID=85" title="wedding to l'Ustaria Ca dal Rat restaurant">L&#8217;Ustaria Ca dal Rat</a>.<br />
The warm rooms of the restaurant welcome them. With the en lit fireplace, wooden beams on the ceiling and warm atmosphere we can say that that was a perfect choice!<br />
<strong>A wonderful way to celebrate Christmas on Lake Orta!</strong></p>
