We have already given a preview of this event on our Just Married section.
Waiting for Enrico Mocci‘s entire photo gallery I would like to spend few words on Nicola and Dana’s wedding floral arrangement.

Nicola and Dana’s color scheme varied from pastel pink to cream with the frame of big hydrangeas flowers.
Hydrangeas are simple but elegant flowers. They are very local on lakes. You can find many here thanks to climate and soil.
Hydrangeas are ideal on a summer wedding. They can match every situation: open air, garden receptions or romanic or baroque churches you can find on lakes region.

The religious ceremony was held in Sacro Monte church on top of Orta hill overlooking the lake.
For this occasion I created a white hydrangeas based arrangement with some cream and pastel cream roses adding some greenery too.

Have a look to the floral columns I created to embellish the main aisle heading to the altar.

Dana chose a round shape for her bridal bouquet.
It was made of pastel pink roses on a base of white hydrangeas and falling Ficus Benjamin leaves.

She wanted the perfect bouquet for her wedding dress.

Wedding reception was held to St. Julius Restaurant on St. Julius Island.
Table arrangement was very pretty. I used three different shapes of glass vases to create a elegant and pleasant effect.

For the top table I opted for a a little variation.
I placed a base of glass with water and crystal inside. I added then two little bunches of flowers facing one another as a symbol of the unity of newlyweds.

As floral designer I loved work and build with Dane and Nicola floral arrangement for their wedding. Day after day, decision after decision we reach a great result that you can see in this post.
We will come back speaking about this lovely couple to enjoy their wedding photo gallery.

Let’s start with color scheme. It was made of all pinks, light blue and white just like in fairy tales.
Bridal dress was like a princess one and matched the grand bouquet made with pink lilies, light blue hydrangeas and white roses.
And even more! Let’s have a look to the tiara in bride’s hair and light pink bridesmaids dresses.

The climax of the ceremony were the four wonderful hawks on bride and groom during the ceremony.

One of them arrived by from the Lake bringing with him wedding rings! Just like in fairy tales.

Following Valentina’s desires I’ve created a romantic bouquet in pastel shades. It had a round shape and it was made up with turquoise hydangeas and white scented freesias.

Dasvidania Valentina and Sergei!!!

As floral designer I’m always looking for interesting and creative solutions but this always depends on bridegrooms choices!
To give you an example Rossella and Giorgio’s wedding was a great occasion to work on a charming theme to me: autumn colors.
Rossella and Giorgio got married last Saturday in Orta San Giulio, lake Orta. A simple ceremony at Villa Bossi followed by a nice reception in wonderful atmosphere of Palazzo Penotti Ubertini.
Bridegroom’s wishe was having a color scheme that could reflect intense Autumn colors with some elements recalling this romantic season that lots of poets love.
As far as the floral arrangements, bouquet and ceremony table arrangement were concerned I opted for a strong contrast between chocolate brown and purple smoothen by soft shades.
I used Black Baccara rose, Leucodendron with Hypericum berries, dry Hydrangea and Gypsum leaves.
On tables at Palazzo Penotti Ubertini I completed the arrangements with rose petals, pine cones and chestnuts.
You can see the final result above. I really hope you like it too!
