St. Julius Island, in Italian Isola di San Giulio, is a little but precious gem of Lake Orta. It add a touch of mysticism and romanticism to Lake Orta for a wonderful Italian wedding.
You surely noticed that. St. Julius Island is a traditional background for weddings we plan on Lake Orta. If you are planning to get married here you can not miss it, you have to get a little memory of that!
St. Julius Island is tiny and it is located just in front of Medieval village of Orta. Even if the island is very very small it can offer a lot!
It could be a wonderful setting for unforgettable wedding photos. The island is very quiet. There are only few nuns living here and it could be the perfect background for an intimate symbolic blessing by the lake shores, just like Rachel and Mark did.
On the Island there is a small and romantic restaurant. It is located inside Villa Tallone an ancient villa owned by a local noble family.
Here you can taste local cuisine on a wonderful terrace on the lake. It could be a perfect venue for your wedding reception on Lake Orta, just unique!
Here you will find all post we wrote in these last few years on Italian Lakes Wedding blog pages.
ENJOY THEM!
