Wir sind ein ganz gemischte Team von Wedding Plannern und haben endlich auch eine Organisatorin gefunden, welche den deutsch-sprechenden Markt betreut. Wir alle haben ganz unterschiedliche berufliche Hintergründe, kommen aus dem Blumenbereich, aus dem Tourismus oder Britta eben aus dem internationalen Projektmanagement, und so ergänzt man sich prima, wenn zu diskutierende Organisationsfragen auftreten. Immerhin lebt Britta nun schon seit 10 Jahren in Italien und genauso lange plant sie auch Hochzeiten.

Für und mit den jeweiligen Hochzeitspaaren wollen wir nun die Seen und ihre verschiedene Reize entdecken und die Besonderheiten aufzeigen.

Warum sind gerade die italienischen Seen so beliebt für Hochzeiten?
Ganz generell ist zu sagen, dass man an den Seen den Wunsch nach Wasser gleichzeitig erfüllen kann, wie das Wandern in alpinen Bergen, Schatten spendenden Wäldern und immer weilt der Blick hinunter in das kühle Nass. Überall liegen kleine Ortschaften, in denen noch der typische italienische Lebensstil anzutreffen ist. Regionale lombardische und piemontesische Küche runden die besonders herzliche Atmosphäre ab.

Varenna is very popular on Lake Como for Catholic Weddings.
And its fame it’s easily understandable: San Giorgio Church it’s absolutely fascinating and, above all, this is one of the few churches of Lake Como which allow to marry the non – residents.
Ancient, charming and impressive at the same time, this masterpiece lies in the heart of the village and represents the focus of the place itself.

Varenna it’s reachable by private boat or ferry from most of the other towns of the Lake.
This means that although Varenna is lovely you can decide to spend your wedding holidays not necessary based in Varenna itself.

Helen and Steve, our elegant Asian couple for example, chose to stay in Bellagio with their guests at the well renowned Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni.
After their ‘getting ready’ and some beautiful shoots, they reached Varenna by boat: a unique occasion to enjoy the lake!

Once arrived in the main Varenna square, a long stair leads you in front of the main entrance.
This is a perfect setting for the wedding decorations: white and long aisle, flowers and candles create a special and evocative atmosphere.
How can you forget the moment when you step inside the church accompanied by the wedding march notes?
I think this is one of the most touching and unforgettable moments in our life….
Crossing the aisle, hearing the people you love murmuring excited, somebody’s crying and…finally you reach the altar for your forever promise of respect and love.
The sound of the Ave Maria, the exchange of the rings, every moment will remain in your mind for the rest of your life.

At the end of the ceremony you cannot miss the petals through as good luck from all of your friends and relatives.
Now that you’re married, the party moment should begin.

Helen and Steve, decided to go back to Bellagio by private boat and have their wedding reception, welcoming their guests at Villa Serbelloni. Continue Reading »

The seven bedrooms, each with their own bathroom and air conditioned as the rest of the property can be reached by elevator or stairway.

The other guests can easily find an accommodation in Bellagio center or surroundings and reaching the Villa by a private boat transfer.
