Carlo and Christan’s Lake Como wedding was a special thrill to coordinate, and an extraordinary journey in all senses of the word. The couple’s passion for travel set the scene for the day, beginning with their passport-themed invitations and shining through in all sorts of details throughout the day. Guests “checked in” with a welcome drink, “boarded the jet” during the couple’s “I dos,” and “prepared for take off” with their first toast to the newlyweds.

THE VENUE

Upon arrival, Carlo and Christian’s guests were welcomed aboard CC Love Airlines via the historical Villa Lario — a spectacular lakeside mansion dating back to the start of the 1900s, and today a luxury resort, as well as an ideal location for the perfect Lake Como wedding. With over two acres of pristine gardens spreading out along the water, the couple chose this venue for its incredible amount of outdoor space and shoreline views.

THE CEREMONY

We have been planning LGBTQ weddings in Italy since same-sex marriage final became legal here in May 2016. Now, no one can stop two souls from celebrating their commitment to one another — and they really never could, because love is love!

With white chairs circled in rows around a landing strip leading to a lifetime of happiness, this unique ceremony set-up ensured that each guest would see every special moment of Carlo and Christian’s official union and exchange of vows.

THE RECEPTION

Various kinds of purple flowers were provided, along with decorations alluding to water, evoking both a different travelling route and the lake’s hidden, unexplored world. The clear, design-forward dining chairs and crystal candelabras caught the light beautifully while sharing the spotlight with the green and purple touches.

Our favorite example? The algae-like masterpieces we created as elegant table runners to the delight of the guests and couple alike.

THE PARTY

With a bit of welcome turbulence, last but not least, some live entertainment along with a DJ made Carlo and Christian’s wedding all the more memorable as guests danced and partied into the night to everything from Aretha Franklin and Marvin Gaye to Tina Turner, Beyonce and beyond.
