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 »

Every wedding is unique and it is always a pleasure seeing bride and groom with beaming eyes in their very special day, but nothing can be truer in the case of Cesar and Cristina!
This couple travelled from Spain, bringing with them the warmth and laid down of their country. They decided that since collecting their friends and family from all over Spain would be a great challenge, they took the chance to transform their wedding into a romantic elope!

We appreciated their modern look and the fact that even if they had been together for a while and are already a family; they looked as if they had met yesterday and fell in love instantly!

So in love that the ring tradition was nearly overlooked in their wedding. They found a couple of colourful rings in Cristina’s jewel box and decided they were good enough for the ceremony. They stated firmly that they were marring the heart, not the finger! Continue Reading »

As you may know, Irish couples are known to be very friendly and loving. Looking at Paul’s and Annette’s wedding, we can only agree with it.

They decided to hold their ceremony in a warm Mediterranean summer in a very special location of Villa Cortine. This is an ancient villa located near the center of little town of Sirmione, a delightful Italian spot, famous for its peculiarity. It is situated in the middle of Lake Garda!
Sirmione and its surroundings is just the perfect scenario to enjoy medieval Italian culture, craftsmanship and fashion habits while filling eyes of nature’s beauty and without having to worry about noise and cars.

Villa Cortine sits upon the hill in the heart of such stunning peninsula, which was rendered immortal by the lyrics of Roman poet Catullo, and dominates the entire basin of Lake Garda.
A centennial park of rare essences and fragrant bushes surround the neo classic style villa built in 1870 by an Austrian nobleman Kurt von Koseritz, officer of art and Italian culture.
The wide park is embellished with nine different fountains and a main one, called Neptune. It greets guests at their entrance just wonderful! At the far end guests can either enjoy Lake Garda’s clear waters or sun bath on the pier of the villa. But Paul and Annette chose this venue also for the superb frescoes and interiors of the palace were precious marbles, byzantine stuccoes and polychromatic decor executed by Brera Academy revive the splendour of the past and delights adults and child.

This beautiful setting is the backdrop to the emotion of the preparations enhanced by a love message from the groom to the bride. Continue Reading »

The Lake Garda is the second biggest lake of the Italian Lake district after Lake Maggiore. This lake is unique not just because of the size of the territory, but also – and mainly – due to the variety of its characteristic ambient: large beaches exists perfectly together with vineyards and olive branches, and towards the north the hilly scene gives its place to the imposing backgrounds of the high mountains. To this spectacular nature, you can add the ancient art, rustic culture and a bit less known, but not less wonderful villas than those of Lake Como, so you find a perfect mix for a dream ambient to realize your very special wedding event.
The Lake offers really a wide choice of splendid places, but nothing is comparable with its peninsulas.

To give you the feeling of an island, but still remaining on the mainland – which can be an important factor when you organize the logistics of your wedding (!) – the Lake offers you 2 very special peninsulas.

The first one, and most known of them is the ancient town of Sirmione, located on the very south of the lake. This really popular touristic target is an incredible mix of the past and future with all the contrasts one can imagine. The rests of the roman Villa called “Catullo’s Cave” is just one of the signs the rich past left to us. Walking around the historical center, one can feel a growing curiosity inside to discover the tenacious past, that is hidden and present at the same time in the architecture, the decoration of the buildings, the small details of every little street….

But in Sirmione all this can be in a perfect harmony with modern shops, designed bars, inviting restaurants and a complex spa center to pamper your body and relax your mind. To complete the picture and make Sirmione a perfect place for a dream wedding, there is the splendid Palace Hotel Villa Cortine just on the lakeshore with its centenarian park full of rare essences and lively colored flowers.
The old Villa completely renovated with its precious marbles and symbolic frescos gives the opportunity to celebrate a very special wedding with the splendor of the past and the pleasure of the art, with the breathtaking lake view as background. In this way, you can be really close to the dynamic life of Sirmione center, but still have your privacy and intimacy of the wedding reception within the walls of this splendid hotel.

The second peninsula is less known, and offers a completely different style, far from busy turistic centers. At the extremity of Garda’s Golf, at the last south-western point of the Baldo Mountain, you can find Punta San Vigilio, one of the most celebrated, but also the most romantic places of the Lake Garda. We know very little about the origins of this location, although it is sure that was inhabitated already in the roman’s time.

The Point of San Vigilio is a wonderful little treat of sophisticated beauty, enclosed between the mountain and the lake. The splendid lake panorama, and the mountain just behind creates a unique mix of rich colored scenes, so that you can feel yourself as being in a painting. Continue Reading »
