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.
