Villa Bossi is no doubt one of the most beautiful wedding destination for a civil ceremony in Italy. As floral designer for weddings on Lake Orta I worked many times at Villa Bossi. Some weddings decorations were simple and some were more complex and challenging. Anyway I keep a special memory of all weddings I decorated at Villa Bossi.
Roses, Orchids and Freesias… these are the flowers that Bianca and Gianluca chose for their wedding on Lake Orta. They planned their religious ceremony in the church of Sacro Monte di Orta and wedding reception at Villa Crespi. They chose an elegant and fine arrangement based on white. Bianca and Gianluca’s love story is beautiful! They met in a chat on internet 8 years ago and fell in love! Gianluca lived in Milano and Bianca in Timioara one of the most beautiful city of Romania…
In these days in Italy magazines you can read a lot of articles about Belen Rodriguez and Stefano De Martino’s wedding. Belen Rodriguez is a famous beautiful model and showgirl that lives and works in Italy. Wedding date is 20th September
Among all wedding venues on Lake Maggiore, no doubt Villa Rusconi Clerici in Verbania Pallanza is one of the most beautiful. You can breath a special vintage atmosphere here. The position is amazing, just on the lake shores facing Borromeo Island and the English style garden is just breathtaking. As wedding planner I organized many weddings at Villa Rusconi Clerici and in this post you can see some of the most beautiful that I will always remember. Wonderful days on this special venue on Lake Maggiore…
When you are about to choose your wedding bouquet, ceremony arrangements and centerpieces for your reception the most important thing is knowing a little more about what is seasonal and what is not. Nowadays you could have the possibility to find non-seasonal flowers every time of the year but they could be much more expensive and quality not always perfect as you want. An important detail is that not all flowers that could be seasonal in UK, Ireland, Northern Countries etc can be seasonal in Italy…
We had some lovely weddings in the last few days and more to come in June! But just to do a little summary here you can find some great shots and some lovely stories. Valentina planned a couple of lovely weddings on Lake Orta. First one was for Saoirse and Declan’s wedding. They had a lovely pink themed wedding with catholic ceremony in Maria Assunta Church with reception to follow at Ustaria Ca dal Rat. An intimate group but they had a lot of fun… a wonderful group coming from Northern Ireland!
Purple is made by red and blue and so it is the synthesis of both! It is the color of the opposites. Passion of red and calmness of blue make the intemperance of purple. A perfect symbol for a wedding. As floral designer I won’t suggest to go for a total purple themed wedding. It could be too much but simply add accents of purple in all its shades, from deep purple to lilac, wisteria lilac, mauve, prune and also reaching delicate pink. A touch of white or ivory could be also a good idea to blend the touches of colors and show the mysterious elegance of purple. For a purple themed wedding…
As floral designer Ilenia and Stuard’s wedding was a very good occasion to do something new. For the first time I worked for a vintage birdcage themed wedding, bride and groom used as centerpieces. And for the first time I worked in wonderful St. Vittore Church on isola Bella, one of the three stunning islands …

The hurricane arrived in Pallanza on August 25th. The wedding we are telling you about today was held on 24th August, just one day before the …
