Yulia and Roman: A Stylish and Atmospheric Wedding for Two at Lake Como

The first snowboarding trip, when you’re still unsure on your feet but already craving the thrill of speed. The first shy kiss, first date, and first love. The first series so captivating that you lose track of time. The first trip that brings a whirlwind of new emotions, impressions, and tastes. The first-time experiences are always more vivid and intense, especially if some of these discoveries happen with a loved one.

Yulia and Roman met at school and started spending time together with their mutual friends. Their school friendship gradually blossomed into love. As their relationship developed, they discovered a shared passion for travel, nature, skiing, and snowboarding. They even found one film that became a favorite for both of them. Their first joint trip was to exotic Thailand, where their dinner with a stunning sunset view and live music left an indelible mark on their hearts.

Yulia and Roman Wedding at Lake Como

 

The couple visited Finland and the Dominican Republic, fell in love with Istanbul, but decided to have their wedding in a country they had never been to before. Italy! This was the place Yulia and Roman had always dreamed of visiting. And this first trip was meant to be special for both of them. Because not only would they get to know Italy for the first time, but they would also officially become husband and wife. They chose Lake Como for the ceremony, which perfectly matched their wedding concept. “Stylish and atmospheric”, they imagined their dream wedding to be in the country of their dreams.

On the morning of September 25, 2023, the couple woke up at Villa Armonia. This elegant 19th-century villa, nestled in greenery on the eastern shore of Lake Como, was the perfect place to begin their wedding day. Without haste, Yulia and Roman woke up and had breakfast with a view of Lake Como.

Then Yulia flew into the caring hands of stylist Olga, only to return to Roman and meet him already in her bridal gown. The groom couldn’t take his eyes off his bride. She looked stunning, like a Hollywood actress in that white dress that hugged her slender figure, with blonde locks cascading down her delicate shoulders.

 

Yulia and Roman headed to the town of Bellagio, where at the town hall they experienced the event they had been waiting for – an official marriage according to the laws of the Republic of Italy. Despite its formal status, the ceremony was touching, and as tradition dictates, the newlyweds were showered with rice as they left the town hall.

As husband and wife, Yulia and Roman took a walk through Bellagio accompanied by the photographer, then crossed Lake Como on a yacht. The fresh breeze, the sparkling waters of the lake, and the sparkling prosecco tickling their noses, the eyes of their beloved shining with love and happiness – is this not heaven on earth?

 

Villa Monastero, built over an ancient Cistercian monastery, is located on the eastern shore of Lake Como. It is famous for its magnificent botanical garden and exquisite architecture. This was where the newlyweds headed for their photo session to capture the joyful moments of their day in a beautiful and atmospheric place.

 

The day concluded with a wedding dinner at Villa Armonia, where Yulia and Roman’s morning had started. The couple dreamed that they would be able to tell their children about the beautiful wedding at the lake in a country with such a rich history. And that’s exactly how it turned out. Ahead lies a lifetime, with many more happy events and stories. But September 25, 2023, will be remembered forever, as it marked the beginning of their new journey as husband and wife.

Hello) We are already back home, everything is great, the vacation was very intense, and we still remember our wedding day and are happy that we contacted you. What amazing photos 😍 I can’t stop looking at them! Ksyusha is a genius! These are the most beautiful works I’ve ever seen, I couldn’t have imagined they would turn out so amazing! 😍😍😍

Kristina and Ivan. Tenderness and romance on Lake Como

Kristina and Ivan: Tenderness and Romance at Lake Como

Kristina and Ivan were deciding between Crimea, St. Petersburg, and Italy. A long-time dream was about to come true.

The couple shares their story of making their Italian dream come true with the portal weddywood.ru.

Kristina and Ivan Tenderness at Lake Como

Kristina and Ivan Tenderness at Lake Como

 

I met Ivan at university. We were in the same class and on the same course, but we didn’t pay attention to each other. In our second year, things started to move forward, the first dates and all that. The relationship developed very quickly, and now we’ve been together for 6 years.

I always knew I wanted an intimate wedding, I dreamed of Italy, but it seemed impossible back then. I even thought of incorporating some Italian elements, like decorating everything with branches and lemons instead of flowers.

Ivan proposed on my birthday, and we began planning. We had three options: a wedding in Crimea, a registration in St. Petersburg, or a wedding in Italy. We couldn’t decide for a long time, and Ivan came up with the idea of using a hat and papers with country names. I drew a paper and thought, “Let it be as it should be.” Italy came up, and everything fell into place.

 

 

 

It was very important for me to find responsible professionals. And we immediately chose Wow Italy. I initially didn’t want to organize a celebration for others, just for us two, and I wanted it to be memorable. The preparation started in May-June, and on October 3rd, we were already standing hand in hand at Lake Como. There wasn’t much time, but I’m really thankful to the organizers for their hard work and help. I truly enjoyed the process of preparation and the wedding itself.

The most common question from friends in the days leading up to the wedding was about pre-wedding nerves. And that’s something you shouldn’t ask a bride. The night before, I began to feel nervous and couldn’t eat. But just before the ceremony, I trusted the universe, and the whole wedding went wonderfully.

Nika and Nikita. At the height of love in the Dolomites

Nika and Nikita: On the Peak of Love in the Dolomites

It is not true that all happy couples/families are alike; each has its own special story of happiness. Nika and Nikita proved that to us once again.

The couple approached us with an unusual request – to organize a wedding in the mountains. Unlike many couples dreaming of getting married at a picturesque villa on Lake Como, Nika and Nikita chose the Dolomites. The couple loves the mountains and spends all their vacations conquering new peaks, so the venue for the ceremony was never in question!

We started searching for the dream location that would meet all the couple’s requirements, and it wasn’t easy! After we found the place, the couple flew to Italy personally to spend a few days in the mountains and check out the location for the upcoming wedding.

Maria, the owner of the restaurant, warned us that in mid-September, at an altitude of 1600 meters, there could be negative temperatures and snow.

“What jokers these northern Italians are!” – we thought, but three days before the wedding, we were surprised to see the forecast showing -3 and snow!

The majestic Dolomites seemed to be testing our couple’s strength and the seriousness of their intentions. Although this was completely unnecessary, since Nika and Nikita had been together for 7 years, and Nikita had proposed to his beloved back in 2017. The couple passed the test, and on the wedding day, magically, the weather was warm and sunny.

 

The official ceremony took place at the town hall in Corvara in Badia, near Bolzano. The mayor pleasantly surprised all of us with her excellent English and very un-Northern warmth and hospitality. She was pleasantly shocked that a young couple from Latvia chose to have their wedding not at the world-famous Lake Como, but in a small town hidden in the mountains.

“It’s as if you’re getting married in the Dolomites, and instead of church domes, ancient mountains rise above you,” she said.

 

 

After the official part, the newlyweds stayed in Corvara in Badia to take memorable photos, while the guests went to the restaurant for a traditional Italian aperitif. Although the couple had been together for many years, not all the guests knew each other, so we organized an icebreaker game and a photo session with instant photos.

After the aperitif, a festive lunch followed, and then the restaurant owner took the newlyweds, along with the photographer and videographer, high into the mountains for an unforgettable photo session. While Nika and Nikita enjoyed each other against the breathtaking backdrop of the Dolomites, the guests enjoyed wine and cheeses.

 

 

And then came the moment we always wait for, holding our breath – the wedding vows moment. Just before sunset, everyone gathered on the restaurant’s veranda for the symbolic ceremony, during which the newlyweds exchanged vows of fidelity and lit a fire, symbolizing the family hearth. Nikita didn’t just vow, he shared their love story with us:

Ti amo. Tre secondi per dirlo. Tre ore per spiegarlo. E una vita intera per provarlo. I love you. Three seconds to say it. Three hours to explain it. And a lifetime to prove it.

 

 

3 seconds passed at the very beginning, I don’t even know what came first, the start of the relationship or the confession. We were sitting in a teahouse, the soft light and seclusion seemed to encourage expressing what was already obvious. If I remember correctly, you didn’t answer my confession, I think you would have considered it premature to say it before fully feeling what I had already felt at that time. The more valuable it was to meet someone for whom words are not empty.
3 hours of explanations could be skipped, they weren’t needed, and I thank you for the clarity of intentions that we’ve had since the very beginning.
A lifetime to prove it also started right away. And in your eyes and behavior, I felt apprehension. Too serious intentions, too openly speaking about it, too sure that I was ready to build a family with you. I wasn’t worried about this at all and knew that over time you would be convinced: everything I say is true.
Today, September 16, 2022, 7 years and 1 month since we started dating. Today is exactly 5 years since I proposed and you said yes. Even then, you seemed to be surprised, thinking it was still too soon. Well, who knew that from the proposal to the wedding, a considerable amount of time would pass.
Given that we are standing before each other and making vows, there is no doubt left. But you know, I wish for us that throughout our life together, you remain the same flirt, and I keep proving to you tirelessly: I am sincere, I love you, I’m serious, well, how much more serious can I get? 🙂
I vow to tell you the truth, even if it’s not always pleasant. (For example: your mascara is running :D)
I cannot vow eternal love, that would be deceitful. I cannot vow that we will be together and love each other after death, because no one knows what will happen after it.
It’s better to gather with all of you many years from now and make sure everything is going as it should. What I can definitely vow is that I loved you before this day, I vow that I love you here and now. I vow that I will do everything to love you more and more, and do everything for you to keep loving me.

Nika and Nikita Wedding in the Dolomites

Honestly, we cried along with the couple’s friends and family. This was an incredibly touching moment, and we are thankful to Nika and Nikita for sharing it with us!

And of course, what’s a wedding without music and dancing? The plan was for a jazz concert, but within half an hour, everyone, including the restaurant owner, was happily dancing to “Ruki Vverh!” and lively Italian songs.

P.S. The next day, it was -3 and it snowed.

Anastasia and Maxim. A Celebration for Two on Lake Como

The long-awaited “Yes!” has been said, and the ring is already sparkling on the finger. Now it’s time to decide what your dream wedding will be. Where and when? With guests or just the two of you? The most exciting moment – the proposal – seems to be behind, but in reality, more questions arise, and the agony of choice keeps you awake at night.

Don’t worry, close your eyes and trust your heart. Imagine your ideal wedding. Do you really need a crowd of guests on this day, or is it enough to have your special one by your side?

Anastasia and Maxim wedding on Lake Como

Anastasia and Maxim dreamed of spending their wedding day alone together. They planned to stay in a five-star hotel with a beautiful view, go shopping for themselves, and pick out memorable wedding rings. In short, they wanted to have a wedding in the style of dolce far niente – sweet doing nothing. The Italians excel at this!

They chose the hottest month of the year – August – for their wedding. During this time, only by the water can you find some coolness. We booked a hotel with a beautiful view and a spa on Lake Como for the couple. In the early afternoon, the preparations for the ceremony began, and the first photoshoot took place.

 

 

Anastasia is currently building a career as a solo singer and keeps up with the latest fashion trends. For the wedding ceremony, she chose a stylish suit and paid special attention to accessories. Check out the look she created!

 

 

This trend will continue into the new year. Long dresses are giving way to short skirts and pantsuits. Glasses, shoes, and hats are the details that will add individuality to your look. Don’t forget about the groom. Maxim and Anastasia look effortless together, and their outfits complement each other.

 

 

The official ceremony took place at the Bellagio Town Hall. And now, as husband and wife, they are boarding a boat to enjoy a lake cruise and a light aperitif. The dream has come true, and our newlyweds are happy. They raise their glasses – a toast to a long and happy life together!

 

 

The couple wanted to have their main wedding photoshoot at the atmospheric Villa Monastero. In the photos, you can see that Anastasia and Maxim are truly enjoying each other and everything that is happening. No pretensions, no posing for the camera. This is what happens when you follow the call of your heart, regardless of what others think. The couple gave themselves a gift – a wedding for two and captured every moment of happiness.

 

I would like to thank each of you for organizing such a wonderful day for us. We are thrilled, everything was perfect. We spent it exactly how we wanted! You are wonderful professionals and lovely people.

Anastasia

Thank you to Anastasia and Maxim for their trust and kind words. We wish the couple love and many more happy moments together!

Darya and Evgeny: A Celebration of Love at Lake Como and Historic Villas

“Living without love is easier, but without it, life has no meaning,” – said L.N. Tolstoy.

And our team wholeheartedly agrees! We cannot imagine our lives without our wonderful couples, and Darya and Evgeny cannot imagine their lives without each other. Of course, we helped these lovebirds organize their dream wedding in Italy!

If you love – love with all your heart, if you celebrate a wedding – do it in such a way that you will remember the joy of this day forever! Darya and Evgeny dreamed of escaping from the daily hustle and bustle, fleeing to the land of eternal happiness, and celebrating their love in one of the most romantic places on earth – at the shores of Lake Como. They wanted to share this important day with their closest people and spend it surrounded by family and best friends!

The lovebirds chose a magnificent villa near the town of Varenna to prepare for the celebration and spend a few pleasant evenings with a glass of wine and heartfelt conversations.

Varenna – a small but very picturesque town located on the eastern shore of Lake Como, with a unique atmosphere of ancient streets and magnificent nature, where peace and comfort reign. Spending evenings alone with each other amidst the antique furniture, the couple enjoyed the breathtaking view of the lake.

 

 

On their wedding day, the couple looked not just like movie characters but like James Bond and Angelina Jolie! Evgeny chose a tuxedo – the perfect outfit for the groom, while Darya dazzled in an elegant dress with charming details on her back. Their appearance radiated sophistication and refinement, which was so beautifully accentuated by the noble blue of the famous lake.

 

Evgeny and Darya wedding at Lake Como

 

July is the heart of summer, meaning it’s the hottest period in Italy. The weather on the day of the wedding was really hot, so the bride and groom decided to take a ride on a water limousine across Lake Como and enjoy the picturesque nature and unforgettable views.

The lovebirds arrived at Villa Monastero, where we arranged a photoshoot for them in a charming garden overflowing with various flowers and plants, beautifully adorned with fountains and statues.

 

 

We are sure that great luck awaits Darya and Evgeny, as swans unexpectedly appeared on the lake, and even a whole family with three cygnets! The most reliable omen – meeting these snow-white birds brings happiness and is considered a good sign! Truly WOW miracles! 😊

 

Darya and Evgeny wedding at Lake Como

 

The official wedding ceremony took place in Bellagio, another town that is called the pearl of Lake Como due to its panoramic views and the beauty of its local architecture. The groom and bride exchanged touching vows of love and fidelity, not holding back tears of joy. And we, to be honest, couldn’t contain our feelings either and were so happy to bring this beautiful couple’s dream to life!

With their hearts united under the bright Italian sun, the newlyweds headed for an aperitif and a festive dinner at the Mistral restaurant, located at the five-star Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni and awarded a prestigious Michelin star.

This aristocratic 15th-century villa astounds with the luxury of its interiors, and dishes from the star chef are served on the terrace with an incredibly beautiful view of the lake. La vita è bella, as the Italians say, and we willingly believe them!

 

 

At sunset, Evgeny and Darya returned from Bellagio to Varenna on an elegant boat, enjoying the first stars of the clear summer sky and making new wishes for their future together. Like in the most beautiful movie, they sailed across the lake at night, whispering sweet words, exchanging kisses, and making plans for their honeymoon.

Soon, the happy newlyweds set off to Tuscany, then to Venice, where they spent several days filled with unforgettable memories. This was the long-awaited celebration of their love, which they successfully combined with a honeymoon in beautiful Italy!

Leo Tolstoy was right, life has no meaning without love, because love is life itself, and let it be bright, long, and happy ❤️

Alexandra and Armen: Capturing Moments of Happiness with Loved Ones at Lake Como

At first glance, Italians may seem too relaxed and even superficial. But, agree, they know better than anyone how to be happy here and now. Perhaps this is why many couples choose Italy for their wedding. The country and its people already hint that the celebration will be unforgettable!

Alexandra and Armen wedding at Lake Como

Alexandra and Armen wedding at Lake Como

 

Armen and Alexandra met through a mutual friend, and it was love at first sight. Armen’s mother always wanted only an Armenian girl as a daughter-in-law and never stopped reminding him about it. Her first meeting with Alexandra was the kind that could be “told to the grandchildren” 😊 The young couple lost their car keys and had to go barefoot and in swimsuits to the parents to fetch a spare pair.

Alexandra’s family also put her future son-in-law to the test during their first meeting. This is what happens when your father is a former investigator. But true love overcomes all obstacles! And now, both families are planning the wedding of their son and daughter in one of the most beautiful places in the world – Lake Como.

 

 

Armen and Alexandra chose an official ceremony that took place by the water at the atmospheric Villa Monastero. The couple decided to keep the decor to a minimum, as the Italian landscapes don’t require extra embellishments. The stylist added fresh flowers to the bride’s hair, which harmoniously matched her necklace.

 

 

 

On the way to the ceremony, Alexandra recalls how her father was calming her down:

– Sasha, don’t worry, everything will be fine!

– Dad, I’m not worried!

– And I am worried…

At that moment, Alexandra realized how much her parents were worried about her.

 

 

After the ceremony, the newlyweds and their guests went to Bellagio for a photoshoot. One of the boats broke down just before departure. We quickly found a replacement, so the guests didn’t notice anything. Fortunately, such unexpected situations are rare, but we always have a Plan B and phone numbers of other contractors in our pocket. Just in case.

 

Alexandra and Armen wedding at Lake Como

 

At the couple’s request, we came up with a light and relaxed entertainment program for the guests. The emphasis was on making sure everyone talked more to each other and simply enjoyed the moment. For example, no Italian wedding is complete without a gift for guests – bomboniere. The name comes from the French word “bon-bon” (candy). Each gift contains 5 pieces of candy for good luck and health. Armen and Alexandra created wedding charades, and guests received a bomboniere for completing them.
At dinner, there was live music. An Italian opera singer performed the song “Grande Amore” by Il Volo, followed by dancing. The host showed the moves, and the guests repeated them. Even their friend approached them with thanks – it was the first time in four years she had seen her husband dancing! In short, everyone had fun regardless of age or nationality.
The newlyweds didn’t pre-decorate the dessert, but instead invited guests to participate in the decoration. This way, everyone could contribute and offer a bit of warmth and creativity to the couple. The cake may not have been Vogue-worthy, but it was made sincerely and with love, just like the entire wedding.

 

 

We thank Armen and Alexandra for trusting us with organizing their celebration. We wish them to continue enjoying the present, valuing each other, and living in love for many years to come.❤️

Valeria and Alexey. Wedding in Rome and Tivoli. A celebration day full of surprises

If we had to relive yesterday, we would choose each of you again. You are the best team anyone could ask for!

These words were said to us by Valeria the day after the wedding. They still warm our hearts and motivate us to conquer new heights in the event planning industry in Italy. But let’s go step by step.

 

Valeria and Alexey, two very warm-hearted people from the city on the Neva River, found us on Instagram. They checked out our profile and were surprised to learn that in Italy, you can organize not just a wedding, but an official ceremony with all the documents, stamps, and signatures. To hear the congratulations and “vi dichiaro marito e moglie” – “I declare you husband and wife” from a representative of the Italian municipality.

At the beginning, we always communicate with the newlyweds via video call to get to know each other personally. We did the same with Valeria and Alexey, and it was love at first call 😀 They liked our heartfelt approach to weddings and the full support at every stage of preparation. They immediately decided on our agency and began gathering the documents for the official ceremony. All that was left was to choose the location.

 

 

It should be noted that the couple are big fans of Italy. They had traveled to many places and were torn between a wedding in Sicily and one in Rome, where they had already been four times. Eventually, they chose the Eternal City.

Rome perfectly combines the opportunities of a large city with the charm of a small province. Here are the best vantage points for photo shoots with views of the most famous landmarks in the world. A rich selection of restaurants and shops. By the way, it was in the Roman shopping center Rinascente that Valeria bought her handmade wedding shoes from a Venetian brand. But few know that in addition to the capital’s opportunities, Rome can also give you the atmosphere of authentic small-town Italy.

 

 

Valeria and Alexey stayed in the center of the Eternal City. The wedding day began with the exciting preparations and writing of vows for the ceremony. They then set off, as they decided to have their official marriage at the Tivoli Town Hall.

 

 

Thirty kilometers from Rome is a town whose history dates back to the 13th century BC. This is Tivoli – one of the favorite and fashionable places during the Roman Empire. The town was famous for its fruit and olive orchards, and wealthy people built their villas here. Not much has changed to this day – the landscapes amaze the eye and heart, and the Villa d’Este with its Renaissance gardens is a UNESCO World Heritage site and is perfect for a wedding photo shoot.

 

 

The official ceremony at the Tivoli Town Hall always has an atmosphere of warmth and coziness. There are no crowds, no one rushes you, and the staff is wonderfully friendly. Our bride simply charmed the representative of the town hall, who, without stopping, complimented her, noting her fragility and femininity.

 

At the end of the ceremony, the newlyweds read the vows they wrote that morning. Every word came from the heart, and the tears in their eyes were the best proof of that. It was good that the couple brought us a gift of candies with the meaningful name “Happiness” – the sweet final note of our ceremony.

 

Interestingly, Valeria and Alexey chose an unusual musical accompaniment – a guitar. Their favorite song by The Verve “Love is noise” in rock style. The musician sang and played it live. Perfect!

 

 

After the ceremony, now husband and wife, they returned to Rome. The couple continued their photo shoot, even stopping by the Colosseum, how could they not? But what awaited them next was a real surprise – a romantic quest. We wanted so much to make this day unforgettable that we developed a route and came up with tasks especially for them.

 

First, they met in their favorite restaurant. They had told us that every time they came to Rome, they always went there. The Roman-style bread, or what is commonly called pizza, was already waiting for them fresh and hot. The person who takes the biggest bite gets to be the master of the house! Everyone tried to take a bigger piece 😀

Then there were fun tasks, a treasure chest, and congratulations literally jumping out of the bushes. We have a lot of experience in conducting quests, and we did our best. Throughout the route, we captured photos and videos to make memories for the couple.

 

The festive day ended at the “de Russie” restaurant near Piazza del Popolo. There was a concert happening, and it felt like all of Rome was celebrating Valeria and Alexey’s wedding.

Every wedding, whether with guests or just for two, is special to us. Thank you, Valeria and Alexey, for trusting us and choosing our team. Their words of gratitude are the best reward for our work:
You are in our hearts, you are in our family archives! You are not just incredibly talented, you are the ones who make moments even more beautiful. Meeting even one of you is already a great luck. Thank you for being with us! Marina, and how do you manage to gather such amazing people.

Daria and Alexey. A Wedding in Sicily. The whole Taormina sang and danced

Daria and Alexey are a young couple from Moscow. They are in love with beautiful Italy and have already visited many places. We met the couple in Rome, where they arrived after a vacation on the Amalfi Coast.

“We plan the wedding probably in December,” said Alexey. “Will it still be warm somewhere in Italy?”

Of course! How about a wedding in Sicily, where winter is not winter, and the air is simply filled with sunlight and happiness? Neither Dasha nor Alexey had been here before and were greatly inspired by the idea of seeing a new corner of Italy. They chose an apartment with a Jacuzzi and an incredible view of the Bella Island.

They decided to hold the wedding ceremony in Taormina. If you haven’t been to this Mediterranean jewel yet, you must come! This city seems to be kissed by the sun. Even Greek poets and Roman philosophers praised Taormina for its beauty. Here, the vibrant Sicilian life is bursting, and the sea landscapes will leave no one indifferent.

The bride’s festive morning started with a relaxing bath and a classic Sicilian breakfast on the terrace – coffee, brioche, and granita. Dasha wanted to spend time before the ceremony without rushing, and she definitely succeeded. Just look at the delicate and harmonious shots our photographer captured while the bride calmly prepared for the important event.

Meanwhile, the groom was looking for a surprise for his beloved. The couple wanted wedding rings from Italy, but none of the options were quite right until Alexey visited several shops in Taormina and finally found the ones! It was the best wedding gift and a souvenir from Sicily 😉

The drive to the registry office was fun and filled with music! The couple played the song “Ah, this wedding!” at full volume, and our friendly group, together with organizer Marina and photographer Irina, sang wedding songs and took photos all the way.

And finally, the long-awaited “Si!”. The signature, and the couple curiously examines their Italian marriage certificate. Just a second ago they were bride and groom, and now they’re husband and wife. We loudly shout our congratulations and do our best to capture every moment of their happiness. This day was just for Daria and Alexey, just as they had imagined – in a new beautiful place in Italy, just the two of them!

 

To add even more vibrant colors to their special day, Daria and Alexey rented a colorful FIAT and invited local musicians. Sicilian music filled the air with happiness, and the whole of Taormina sang and danced with the newlyweds. The music didn’t stop even at the restaurant – how else? A Sicilian wedding cannot be quiet! 😄

September is the perfect time for a wedding in northern Italy. Officially, it’s still summer, but the oppressive August heat is gone, and the light breeze from the lake refreshes the air.

How does a wedding day begin? With anticipation. With excitement. With the feeling of something extraordinary happening. With an amazing view of Lake Como from the windows of the Borgo Le Terrazze hotel. And, of course, with the creation of the bride’s wedding look.

When the bride and groom were ready, they were joined by the photographer and videographer to capture every detail of this special day. After the photo session at the hotel, Daria and Roman headed to the official wedding ceremony, which took place in the cozy courtyard of the Bellagio Town Hall.

 

 

What Italian wedding would be complete without prosecco? After the ceremony, the newlyweds went to a cozy little wine bar to celebrate the occasion with a glass of chilled sparkling wine. From there, they took a stroll through the town, often referred to as the “pearl of Como.” Bellagio is unique primarily for its location – it lies at the very edge of a cliff, far out into the lake. The narrow streets of the historic center are charming in the true Italian way and are perfect for romantic photo shoots.

 

 

Then it was time for a boat ride on the lake and photos at Villa Melzi. This is not just one of the many villas on Lake Como. The great Hungarian composer Franz Liszt often spent time here with his lover, the French countess and writer Marie Catherine Sophie d’Agoult. They particularly enjoyed Villa Melzi with its stunning views.

The legend of the beautiful love story between the composer and the writer is still alive in the memory of the locals, as evidenced by the memorial plaque on the house where the famous couple lived.
Italian newlyweds believe that spending their honeymoon in Bellagio guarantees a long and happy married life. We are sure that Daria and Roman’s life will be just as wonderful!

Evgenia and Andrey's Wedding. Enchanting Rome for Two

Many couples from Russia dream of a wedding in Cyprus, but Russians living in Cyprus choose Italy!

First, because Italy offers a wide range of wedding locations in different regions of the country, and second, in Cyprus there is always a small risk that someone in a swimsuit will end up in the background of your wedding photos 😊

Evgenia and Andrey are from Russia, but they met in Cyprus, where they both live and work. A match in one of the dating apps led to serious feelings and a beautiful wedding in Rome! Initially, the couple wanted to get married in America, but due to the pandemic and visa issues, that plan didn’t come to fruition. However, as they say, everything happens for the best!

The couple was ready to settle for getting married at the Russian consulate in Cyprus when Evgenia accidentally found our account on Instagram. At first, she couldn’t believe that a wedding in Rome was so easy and accessible! But after we had a call and chatted, we really liked each other!

The couple was thrilled by our package offer “Official Wedding in Rome”, which saved them from the hassle of paperwork and organization, leaving the bride and groom with only pleasant tasks.

The wedding day should not begin with rush. That’s why the most important day in Evgenia and Andrey’s life began leisurely and very Italian-style, with breakfast and a spa massage in a Rome salon. The ceremony was planned for the evening, as it is very hot during the day in July.

For almost two hours, our magical team from WowItaly Weddings worked on the bride’s look. Evgenia chose a very elegant and minimalist look that highlighted her natural beauty. When the bride was almost ready, the photographer entered to capture the final preparations.

What is the most exciting moment of the wedding day, besides the ceremony? Of course, the first look of the bride and groom! Andrey was waiting for his beloved on the terrace of a luxurious restaurant with a view of the Colosseum, and he couldn’t hold back his emotions when he finally saw her.

After a short photo session in front of the Colosseum, Evgenia and Andrey got into a car and headed to the official marriage registration ceremony in the picturesque town of Tivoli, near Rome.

There, in the town hall, in a room from the 18th century decorated with ancient frescoes and works of famous artists, the couple was in for a surprise! We organized a live-stream of the ceremony for the couple’s relatives from Russia so they could share this happy moment with them. The couple read their vows to each other, and after signing the official documents, they opened a bottle of prosecco to drink as a married couple.

The next part of the wedding day was a photo session in Tivoli, famous for its ancient Roman villas and medieval streets, where every photo looks like a postcard. Later, the newlyweds returned to Rome, where a continuation of the photo session awaited them in the most charming corners of the city.

The wedding day ended with a luxurious dinner for two at a Michelin-starred restaurant on the terrace of the famous Hassler hotel, where Hollywood stars often stay. There, with a view of the Spanish Steps, we left the happy couple to enjoy delicious food, wine, and each other’s company.
But the story doesn’t end there! On their first anniversary, Evgenia and Andrey returned to Rome to thank the Eternal City (and us!) for that unforgettable day filled with joyful excitement, smiles, and, of course, love.
