On Lake Orta posts we usually show our couples in wonderful green and blue landscapes with bright medieval houses under the sun.
Today we would like to suggest something completely different and unusual:
a white Christmas on Lake Orta!

Yesterday, just two days before Christmas, lot of snow whiten Lake Orta creating and enchanting Christmas atmosphere.
Raffaello Mazzoleni one of Italian Lakes Wedding photograher captured it for us.

This is Lake Orta that many of you never saw, right into a fairly tale landscape almost unreal.
Don’t you think it could be perfect for a Winter Wedding on Lake Orta?

Some days ago I told you about Aleksandra and Chris’ Winter Wedding on Italian mountains close to the lakes.
Aleksandra and Chris got married in a precious little church in a mountain village and had their reception in a hotel ski resort. They decided for a white silver theme wedding with Christmas details that added a touch of romanticism to their day.
You will feel the warm atmosphere even if it was very cold outside… just few days before a great snowy weather on Piemonte!
Just today Photographer Andrea Dapueto gave us the entire wedding photogallery.
Have a look to their pictures and you will fall in love with this magic atmosphere!

Italian Lakes are famous for romantic atmosphere, great landscapes, lovely village: all these elements create a perfect combination for destination weddings in Italy.
That is not enough! Italian Lakes District is surrounded by wonderful mountains and Alps valleys that during Winter season they become enchanted snowy landscapes easily reachable by car: the perfect venue for a winter wedding!
You will have lots of choose. Lake District has many ski resort location on in its territory and touristy little villages. Mt. Mottarone is between Lake Orta and Lake Maggiore, on its top you could have stunning view of 7 lakes and all the Alp chain. On the North there is Ossola Valley and a little bit far from there there are Olympic Valleys, Sestriere, Bardonecchia and Sauze d’Oulx that hosted 2006 Winter Olympic Games.
Around Lake Como the best location are Chavenna and Madonna di Campiglio and around Lake Garda the wonderful Mt.Baldo (close to Malcesine) and Dolomites ski resorts in Val Gardena such as Ortisei and Cortina d’Ampezzo.
Why choosing a Winter Wedding?

Most couples chose to get married in spring, because April, May and June are typically considered the appropriate time for a traditional wedding.
But if you are planning to get married in Italy , and in particular in the lakes area, you may consider seriously the idea of getting married in winter and in particular in December.
“Why?”, you may ask. “But because it is Christmas time” I say! And your marriage can take advantage of “the most beautiful time of the year”!
Imagine: all the little villages are filled with Christmas decorations, ligths, candles, and snow capped mountains all around! Isn’t this a gorgeous setting for you photo album?
You can have Christmas holyday menu for you dinner party and what about a Panettone, the classical Italian Christmas cake instead of the usual wedding cake?
But what entices me most (and not just because I am a singer) is Christmas music! Christmas songs are known by everyone and are mostly the same all around the world. They remember us of our childhood, of beautiful moments spent with our parents and relatives, of gifts and kisses, of old friends, of happiness and love…
This is why I always suggest my special Christmas live show to couples getting married in December.
On this webpage you can listen to some samples of the Christmas songs I like most…with a little Christmas present: you can download some of my Christmas songs for FREE!
MERRY CHRISTMAS from Martha J.!
