Symbolic Wedding in Italy

Wedding of Irina and Bulat. A delicate symphony of love

Can you guess which city connects Hamburg and Ufa?

Correct, Rome.

Because all roads lead to Rome. Because Rome is the city of love, in the name of which the word love is already embedded (ROMA = AMORe). And of course, the city-museum, a treasure chest of world masterpieces, great history, and family traditions. For example, did you know that the tradition of exchanging rings originated here during Ancient Rome?

But let’s get back to our heroes…

Irina was doing a prestigious medical internship in Germany. Bulat is a successful manager, spending a lot of time traveling between cities and countries.

They could have chosen any country in the world for their most important day, but in the end, it was “Rome and only Rome!” as Princess Anna from the movie “Roman Holiday” said. Our bride and groom confidently said “Si/Yes!” to a beautiful symbolic ceremony in Rome with a view of the Vatican.

Several months of preparations, coordinating details, and discussing the plan for the day (every moment had to be beautiful and memorable!). And then it came, such a sunny, clear, and warm day – March 21, 2019!
A walk through the empty streets of Rome in the golden rays of the morning sun, cozy streets bathed in greenery, delicious cappuccino by the Trevi Fountain, and the strong but gentle hands of the beloved…

 

Bulat and Irina chose very delicate, harmonious, and understated looks that perfectly fit the aesthetics of the Eternal City and were ideal for a photoshoot against the backdrop of architectural masterpieces of antiquity and baroque. Looking at them, it seemed that pleasant sounds of a captivating symphony filled the air. A symphony of beautiful, pure, sincere love.

After the photoshoot, Irina and Bulat arrived on the terrace with a stunning panoramic view of the Vatican and all of Rome, where they were greeted with applause from their parents. From the very beginning, the couple wanted to make this day a celebration not only for themselves but also for their closest and dearest people.

 

 

The ceremony itself began under the church bells of St. Peter’s Basilica. Incredible! And it was so soulful, warm, and natural that tears of happiness appeared in the eyes of all the witnesses of the ceremony…

Tender words to each other, gentle vows, surprises from the parents – everything on this day sparkled with happiness. Just like the sparkling champagne for the young couple’s love in the setting of the Eternal City!
Irina and Bulat’s review of the wedding ceremony organization in Rome, which speaks louder than any descriptions of this day:

We would like to express our immense gratitude to the WowItaly team for organizing the wonderful symbolic ceremony with a view of the Vatican!

We planned this event and contacted the agency six months in advance. We were anxious about the organization and wanted everything to go smoothly.

Usually, people describe their wedding day as hectic, stressful, and nervous. But not this day, thanks to Marina, Svetlana, Irina, and Ruslana! The feeling of joy and happiness stayed with us from the moment we woke up until the evening.

The words they prepared for us and our parents, the poems, the vows – they still echo in our souls. So touching and sincere that it made us want to cry with happiness.

Thank you so much, Marina, for being so responsible in your work, for the help, the answers to all questions, and for the little details that made the ceremony perfect!

Our relatives were also delighted with the organization!We will remember this day for the rest of our lives! Thank you for these wonderful memories!

Irina and Bulat, congratulations once again, and we dream of celebrating your anniversary in 20, 30, and 50 years in the city of love. Because Roma = Amore!

Antonina and Oleg’s Wedding in Sicily. Happiness in Lemon and Olive Tones

Wedding Date: September 12, 2018

Location: Savoca, Taormina (Sicily Island)

Photographer: Yana Shpitsberg

Flowers and Decor: Marina Sorokoumova

Guests: 2 people (the mothers of Antonina and Oleg)

Symbolic Wedding in Italy

Wedding of Antonina and Oleg in Sicily. Happiness in Lemon and Olive Tones

A wedding in Sicily is always unique, genuine, and full of heartfelt emotions. Honestly, working in Sicily is a true pleasure for us because every single resident of this island will do everything – and even more – to make the newlyweds happy!

On this island, between Europe and Africa, you can still find the authentic Italy, whose atmosphere is so captivating and enchanting. This is truly the relaxed dolce vita surrounded by the blue waters of the Mediterranean…

Here, emotions run high, plates clink over lunch at mom’s house, and, like nowhere else, people take their time doing business while having heartfelt conversations…

For example, negotiations with the venue to host Antonina and Oleg’s symbolic ceremony took us 5 hours.

And it’s hard to even call them negotiations. More like a monologue by the hotel owner about life, family, and, as an afterthought, about our business for which we had gathered.

When we politely declined a drink while signing the wedding contract, the venue owner simply got offended! Refusing hospitality in Sicily (even if you’re at work, even if you’re driving) is considered impolite 🙂

I also want to mention the florist, who gave us a bundle of olive branches from his own garden and even went to another city for the most beautiful and photogenic lemons (since September is not lemon season in Sicily).

And it’s hard to forget the moment when all the hotel staff gathered to admire Antonina and Oleg’s wedding vows ceremony — it was so touching, gentle, heartfelt, and sincere…

What made it even more special was that, on this day filled with sincerity, smiles, and love for life, the most important people in Antonina and Oleg’s lives – their mothers – were present.

They, following the Sicilian tradition, also took part in the ceremony and gave incredibly moving words.

Love is not a cheerful thoughtless bow

Nor reproaches that hit the ribs.

Love is having a talent,

Perhaps the greatest and kindest…

Would you like more sketches?

The driver of the Rolls-Royce, a native Sicilian, stopped a police car in Taormina and asked for permission to drive the newlyweds from Belarus through the city’s main PEDESTRIAN street. Should I even mention that they gave him a green light?

Welcome to Sicily! 🙂

When asked, “Francesco, will you go home after you drop the newlyweds off at the hotel?” the Rolls-Royce driver indignantly replied, “Girls, what do you mean?! I’m going to Taormina! They have such dances on the main square!” No need to add that Francesco is 65, right? 🙂

 

Antonina and Oleg’s ceremony was a wedding of inspiration, a wedding that brings smiles and love, the most miraculous medicine in the world…

Here’s what Antonina wrote to us about her feelings on that day:

We want to express our sincere gratitude to Marina for organizing our special day in the colors, style, and atmosphere we had wished for. We also thank our photographer Yana for the beautiful works. This day was rich, magical, and memorable. We relaxed and celebrated. The only worries we had were when giving vows to each other, and they were pleasant ones. We confidently recommend this agency! We wish you prosperity and success!

Antonina and Oleg, thank you for your trust, for your feelings, and for your happy eyes, both on the wedding day and during the preparation days.

Take care of your love! And we will be planning and dreaming about celebrating the anniversary of your wedding with the sun in your hair, your feet sinking in the sand, and the scent of lemons filling the air…

Chin-chin!

Wedding of Yaroslavna and Nikolay. Brightness of emotions and feelings

Date: August 29, 2018

Location: Rome (Bocca della Verità, Spanish Steps, beautiful atmospheric streets)

Photographer: Marina Sorokoumova

Organization: WowItaly Team

Style: Roman Holiday

Proposal

Kristina and Dmitry. The Mouth of Truth... and Love

Every beautiful wedding begins with a beautiful proposal 💍. One of the most romantic films about Italy and Rome became the source of inspiration for Dmitry. The young man decided to propose to his beloved Kristina in the Eternal City, in the style of the Oscar-winning 50s film “Roman Holiday” starring the incomparable Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck..

“Roman Holiday” with Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck in the leading roles

Dmitry, with the help of the WowItaly Team, developed a whole plan to win Her heart, disguising his intentions as a themed photoshoot 😎.

Spanish Steps, Trevi Fountain, scooters, great mood, and sunny Rome… But the main surprise awaited Kristina ahead.

In “Roman Holiday,” there is quite a funny moment related to Bocca della Verità, or the Mouth of Truth (an ancient round marble slab with an image of the mask of Triton, which became the “lie detector” in the Middle Ages).

Along the route of the themed photoshoot, Kristina and Dmitry came to the Church of Santa Maria in Cosmedin, where the Mouth of Truth is located in its portico. Traditionally, a queue forms to place a hand in the hole of the ancient slab and, of course, take a photo for memory. Our heroes were no exception.

Just like Princess Anna in “Roman Holiday,” Kristina also put her hand into the Mouth… where she found a note with an unfinished text (how did it get there?😉). And Dmitry had already asked his main question aloud, kneeling in front of Kristina.

And, quite unexpectedly, her favorite melody Hotel California played, skillfully performed by the guitarist – our “undercover agent,” who was waiting for the right moment.

Roman Holiday Mouth of Truth

When the numerous tourists in line for the Mouth of Truth realized they were witnessing such a romantic event, they rewarded the couple with wild applause and congratulations. It was such a touching moment that sent chills down everyone’s spine. And, of course, Kristina said “Yes!” 😍🤗

Later, we received a letter from Dmitry with the following words:

Marina, good afternoon! The preparations for our wedding are already in full swing 🙂

The photos are wonderful, we reviewed them last night before bed and are very happy!

Thank you and Anna for your efforts and work in organizing such an important event for us!

Proposal in the style of Roman Holiday

Dmitry and Kristina, we wish for your love to be eternal, as eternal as Rome. May your marriage always have a place for romance, spontaneity, and pleasant surprises – after all, they beautify our lives!
