Italian Lakes Wedding Planner

A Wedding day is a special day. Everyone wish to make it unique and unforgettable.
Lake Garda enchanted poets and painters for centuries with its beautiful and different landscapes- It offers fascinating solutions for the ceremony of your dreams.

Lake Garda East coast is embellished by many castles and crenellated cities.
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.

Scala dynasty ruled the city for 125 years and extended its dominions to Lake Garda, leaving many historical testimonies.

One of the most famous is the castle of Malcesine.
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.

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.
Malcesine can be visited by foot or by a funny “Ape Calessino” (tuk-tuk). You get lost in the labyrinth of alleyways between colourful houses and ancient palaces and to discover beautiful backgrounds for your wedding pictures. Continue Reading »

A lot of couples have the same problem: who and how many guests to invite to their wedding: the most important day in their life. The problem becomes even more important if we talk about a destination wedding abroad. Logistics and budget issues may be added to the “to do list” of the wedding preparations.

On 31 May 2010 Judith and Stephen decided to simplify it all and satisfy both their needs: an intimate wedding ceremony with just close family and celebrate it all afterwards with all the other family, friends and colleagues. They simply “split” the event in 2: a little romantic wedding in Italy, and then once back home, have a great party with all.

For their Italian wedding, they chose sunny, tiny little town of Torri del Benaco. In Torri del Benaco you can keep it original genuine despite of the fact that it is very touristy. Coming here, you will find original local cuisine of the many restaurants of the historic centre around the Castle, dominating the town.

Judith and Stephen’s ceremony was held in the Lemon Garden of the Castle under the refreshing shade of some lemon trees. Stephen had some “long minutes” to wait for Judith’s arrival, as she absolutely wanted to stop in the church on the way to the castle to tell a prayer, and ask the blessing of God to her wedding.

Lake Garda is known all over the world for its beauty, but, above all it remains one of the top locations for celebrating a romantic and unforgettable wedding abroad.
This Lake is very big and offers many opportunities to realize the dream of a unique day.
If you’ve always imagined getting married in an ancient castle overlooking a breathtaking lake view, well, Torri del Benaco is the place!

This is a lovely old town, also known as the Olive Riviera, located at the foot of Monte Baldo.

Here, the nature of the surroundings is really impressive and characterized by stunning pine woods, olive groves and lemon orchards.

This incredible place allows the couples to celebrate their civil wedding ceremony directly at the castle located in the center of the town or, in alternative, in the ancient Church of San Giovanni.

The castle, just few meters away from the harbour, was made to defend the city and has three towers, all of which is surrounded by the ruins of the town walls that protected the town of Torri del Benaco.
People of Torri del Benaco are very proud of this monument so well maintained during the centuries and where you still can feel a magic atmosphere.

The splendid ceremony can be celebrated directly on the tower terrace, overlooking the Lake, if the number of guests is small (max 15). Continue Reading »

Torri del Benaco is one of the most appreciated destination weddings of Lake Garda thanks to the romantic frame of the Castello Scaligero and the picturesque little port on the lake. In this fabulous scene that Mercedes and Eugene, a young English couple celebrated its wedding: from the team of Italian Lakes Wedding we were represented by the musicians of the Koinè String Quartet that ensured the perfect musical background of the event with their rich repertoire of classical music.

We show you here some pictures of this romantic wedding thanks to the images of the photographer GUIDO PELLATI, from the Pellati Photographic Studio of Bardolino.
The wedding of Mercedes and Eugene was celebrated in the shadow of the huge lemon plants of the Limonaia (Lemon Groves) of the Castello Scaligero, one of the last citrus fruit greenhouses still functioning on Lake Garda, since 1760.

Few days ago, we received a kind letter from Don and Jean, lovely parents of Mercedes, saying once again thanks to the team of Italian Lakes Wedding and the Koinè String Quartet for the great success of the event. Here you can read their kind words:
It hardly seems possible that two weeks have passed since we were with you in Italy – and we have so many wonderful memories of that special occasion! We wanted to place on record our sincere thanks to you and the musicians for providing such excellent support and for taking so much trouble to seek out and play the music we requested. It was, in fact, exactly as we had hoped – with the music setting the right atmosphere for each part of the ceremony. We could not have wished for a better service than the one you provided.
Our daughter, Mercedes and her husband, Eugene, join us in this expression of thanks – and we would be happy, of course, to recommend your musicians to any others who may be planning a similar event.
Best wishes.
Don and Jean Steele.

We would like to thank to Don and Jean from our side for their appreciation of our work, and that of the Koinè String Quartet, and we wish all the best and happiness again to the newly wed couple. Continue Reading »
