Italian Lakes Wedding Planner

After Diane’s wonderful post I would like to come back on Siobhan and Stuart’s wedding to tell you about the floral arrangements of the event that officially opened Wedding season in Villa Bossi on Lake Orta.

As floral designer I met Siobhan and Stuart through Valentina, our wedding coordinator specialized on weddings on Lake Orta and Lake Maggiore.
I leave to her introducion this lovely couple:

Shiobhan and Stuart are a nice couple coming from Scotland.
I never met them before they came here for their wedding. We planned all details via email and our collaboration started more than one year ago!
Sibhoan is a wonderful and sweet person. She faced every step of the planning with a deep joy and enthusiasm and it was a pleasure and honor for me helping her and her groom to make their dream come true.

They decided for an intimate wedding on Lake Orta because they wanted to share the perfect atmosphere of this quaint corner of Italy only with their close friends and family. They spent some days in Orta taking also the occasion to enjoy the lake in a special period of the year: Early Spring.
This moment is special here, flowers and plans and blooming and the tourists are still few.
A perfect choice!

From the floral point of view Siobhan and Stuart’s wedding was really unusual, they chose a theme based on pink and yellow.

For the bride and grooms who wish to celebrate their wedding outdoors in a garden or by the lake shores a colorful palette of pink and yellow could be a trendy solution! It can be dynamic and out of classical choices making the atmosphere warmer colorful and charming! Continue Reading »

Some days ago Alessandra told you about Julia and Angus’ wedding on Lake Como.
For the ones who did not have a look to their lovely photogallery just give a glance of wonderful pictures taken by Mauro Pozzer.
Julia and Angus opted for red and blue color scheme with a touch of cream.
It is really funny as the same scheme – red blue and cream – was taken by another English couple Richard and Victoria who got married on Lake Orta.

Our readers surely remember that we spoke about this wedding in our Just Married section. We promised a longer post and here we are.
We come back to you speaking about Victoria and Richar’s wedding thanks to Enrico Mocci, the photographer bride and groom chose for their day.
Enrico Mocci gave us in short time the full service of the event. So I selected some lovely images but do not forget to see the entire PHOTO GALLERY. You will find 32 great shots describing this special day.

Victoria and Richard are a lovely couple came from UK and as often all decorations were decided via email. I had the pleasure to meet Victoria only few days before the wedding. She is a lovely and pretty girl.

Since the very first emails Victoria knew what she wanted: roses in two color with a predominance of red.

Red, color of passion and love was the main theme of all floral arrangements I created for Victoria and Richard. Red was in bridal and bridesmaids’ bouquet, groom’s tie and buttonholes and of course in the decorations of the ceremony. Continue Reading »

Today we would love to tell you about Lisa and Darren’s wedding. It was surely one of the best event on Lake Maggiore this year. Lisa and Darren visited the Lake last year with our planner Valentina and they fell in love with Villa Rusconi at first sight!
They thought it could be the perfect place for their Italian wedding on the Lake and from the very first moment they had some great ideas to make it even more perfect.

When I first met Lisa and Darren I was touched by their enthusiasm. They such a nice and solar couple. When I showed them Villa Rusconi Lisa’s eyes sparkled and I knew that that was the right the right place for them!
Then almost a year wonderful year of planning followed. And I have to admit we developed a very special relationship that ended to consider each other like good and old friends!
Valentina

We wanted our wedding to be relaxed but an experience our guests would never forget and I think we achieved this 110 percent!  Our friends are still raving about it now!
The setting of course is stunning and couldn’t fail to impress.
Lisa

Lisa decided to getting ready with her friends to closer Grand Hotel Majestic.

You will surely remember about our beautiful bride Nicola who got married last June with Bryan on Lake Orta. We have already told you about their wonderful wedding with ceremony to Sacro Monte church and with romantic and intimate reception to follow to Hotel San Rocco.

For the first time we will talk you about the main theme Nicola chose for the wedding and this is the first time we are presenting here a gold themed wedding on Lake Orta!
Such and original choice Nicola and Bryan did for their wedding in italy.
As we told you Nicola and Bryan decided for an intimate wedding for no more than 25 people.
In the afternoon of a gold sunny day on the lake Nicola arrived to the church with her father and her sister.

They were perfect! Nicola’s dress was amazing with all laces and the fist touch of gold was given by the sweet ivory and gold dress her lovely sister had on.
Bridal bouquet and decorations in the church were of course ivory themed to keep them simple and elegant. Chic and delicate gold touch was kept for the reception to the reception.

The arrangements of the tables were surely a touch of good taste Nicola has indeed.

It was made up with just some ivory floating flowers, ivory tablecloths and chairs to begin on the three round table in Rotary Room overlooking the lake. Continue Reading »

Like last year, also this year RED is going to be one of our brides preferred color.
We spoke about Cinzia and Christian’s wedding on Lake Orta last day with a lot of red details inside. Today we would like to speak about Melissa and Cameron’s wedding.
A young American couple who choose Lake Maggiore and Grand Hotel des Iles Borromées for their Italian wedding.

Cinzia and Christian, Melissa and Cameron: two distant couple connected by a red themed wedding.

Red is color of love, a warm and passionate color. It is a interesting and charming color. In many cultures it is the representation of beauty. Indian, Mussels and Chines brides usually wear red to celebrate love, passion and romanticism.

Melissa and Cameron for their wedding chose to have red all around.
Just have a look to bridesmaids and flower girls dresses, groom tie and of course on the table centerpieces and bridal bouquet. Continue Reading »

Third appointment with our summer season wedding is again about a red themed wedding.
A trendy color in the last few years.

Shawn and Raul are a nice couple who fell in love with Italy. After taking in consideration some marine venues in Portofino and Zoagli on Italian Riviera, they finally opted for Lake Orta’s romantic atmosphere. A great achievement for us who always try to let the world know how wonderful this place is.

Shawn and Raul arrived directly from United States to find this cosy village’s appeal. they defined it as Just a Fairy Tale.

Shawn arrived by herself to Villa Bossi with a motorboat.
On the town hall pier her maid of honor and sister was waiting for her. They sang together a moving traditional american song.

Shaw took her walk on the aisle of Villa Bossi that was literally covered with colored rose petals.

For the ceremony Shawn decided for a very glamour dress with a crystals collar and little veil on her face. Her shoes were red and matched perfectly her bouquet made up of 24 red roses and Swarovski pins. Continue Reading »

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!
