From villas to waterfront cerimonies: bespoke weddings on Lake Como

There’s something about Lake Como that whispers romance. Maybe it’s the glimmering water framed by Alpine peaks, the timeless villas hidden among cypress trees, or the slow rhythm of boats gliding over the surface. Whatever the reason, this northern Italian gem has become one of the most coveted wedding destinations in the world—and for good reason.

Where Luxury Meets Legacy

Lake Como isn’t just beautiful—it’s storied. Each villa along the lake tells a tale of aristocrats, poets, and jet-setters. Choosing to get married here isn’t just about aesthetics (though those are guaranteed); it’s about stepping into a legacy of elegance.

Think Villa Balbianello, perched dramatically on a wooded promontory, where James Bond once sipped martinis and where your guests could sip prosecco. Or Villa d’Este, where five-star service meets centuries-old gardens. These aren’t just venues—they’re experiences.

Ceremonies by the Water

One of the most enchanting features of a Lake Como wedding? The water itself. Waterfront ceremonies—especially those timed with golden hour—create a sense of intimacy and cinematic beauty that few places on Earth can match. Whether you arrive by boat or say your vows on a private terrace just above the rippling blue, the lake becomes both backdrop and witness.

Tailored to You

Bespoke doesn’t mean just adding your initials to a napkin. On Lake Como, it means crafting an entire wedding narrative that reflects who you are. From curated welcome dinners in local trattorias to firework finales over the lake, every element can be designed to feel personal and unforgettable. Want a string quartet playing your favorite Radiohead song? A midnight gondola ride? A floral installation inspired by Renaissance paintings? This is the place to dream big.

A Destination Worth the Journey

Yes, it takes a bit of planning to bring guests to Italy—but once they arrive, it’s pure magic. Between sips of espresso and gelato breaks in charming lakeside towns, your wedding becomes not just an event but a shared adventure. And let’s not forget: the photos? Timeless.

At @villazagarasorrento , Belyn & Jason celebrated the ‘tea ceremony’ a heartfelt ritual of respect, gratitude, and unity in many Asian cultures 🫖🎎

Because our dedication is not only to honor these traditions but to make them shine, bringing them to new life in the wonderful Italian setting ♥️

And thus, the perfect harmony between culture and place begins!
