Flowers and Shabby Chic

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.

I’m happy and pleased to tell you about Jacqueline and Mat’s wedding today. For many reasons it has been a special event and we are happy to share with our readers all details that made a day like this so different and magic. I met Jacqueline and Mat many months before their wedding and I really loved their approach and style. I was really pleased that they choose us to help them with their wedding planning in Italy. During the planning I realised immediately they had in mind something special, helping them to make their dreams come true was a joy…

I know I told you about a wedding to Ustaria Ca dal Rat many times but we never get tired to have weddings there! The venue is really charming, view is amazing and food is delicious: it could be a perfect venue if you are looking for a relaxed and laid down event on Lake Orta. This time we have something new to show you!  A lovely video for a sweet wedding we recently planned in Orta. We are talking about Nicola and Tom’s wedding.

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…

A Chinese wedding in Italy some years ago could it be such a strange thing. But it is really different nowadays! Today I tell you about Nick and Anne’s wedding that took place about one year ago on Lake Orta. The planning of the wedding was a real fun as it incorporated many different traditions and customs China and Occidental world!  So you will see many venues you already know in a very different key, such as Villa Gippini, Hotel San Rocco and Villa Bossi. I hope you will enjoy it!

Peonies, hydrangeas and rose petals

It is been a little while since we last told you about weddings at Madonna del Sasso Church on Lake Orta. Today we go back up there with a wonderful Brazilian couple Franciele e Vicenzo. Madonna del Sasso church is an amazing venue for Catholic ceremony on Lake Orta. It is located just on top of a rock and from there you could enjoy the most amazing view of all the Lake… just perfect for your wedding photos after the ceremony!

As you can imagine we are really into the season so we thought that a good weekly summary of our weddings could be something nice to post! We hope you all love them! Week end started with a wonderful German couple: Christin and Gerd. They love Italian Lakes and they were so undecided about which one to choose. Last year they had 15 days holidays on our lakes to tour them all and they finally choose Lake Orta!

Today I go back to Villa Pestalozza to tell you about a wonderful wedding: Joy and Rory
