Lake Como is an iconic place! Everyone wants to get married there, for a lot of reasons: The breathtaking landscapes where you can witness the merging of the mountains and water, the stunning Villas where grab a classic Italian “aperitivo”, a boat tour to build unforgettable memories.
This wedding inspiration at Villa Carminati Resta and at Terminus Hotel came from the vision of Florigraphia and Gionata Russo Weddings. Head on over to the full gallery by Katerina Kutas for some major inspiration.
Adelina and Max have lived in Italy in the past, for this reason they choose to get married surrounded by the beauty of Lake Como.
Orange is the main color because It hidden a powerful meaning: It’s the typical color of Italian sunsets. Soaring stately columns surrounded by the emerging flowers set the scene for this cozy ceremony.
The couple said their ‘I do’s’ in front of a stunning floral ceremony installation from Fiorigraphia, which both beautifully framed the gorgeous couple and perfectly echoed the glorious warm colors in the Villa Carminati Resta courtyard.
The main idea of the general style was naturalness, he shapes of the inflorescences are not repeated and mutually complement each other, every flower seems to be harvested in the forest. Therefore, all compositions and bouquet do not have an obvious classical form, they have vertical movement and due to this they look natural.
Adelina immediately fell in love with a simple dress in pure silk designed by Cortana for the ceremony and she wore a sparkling and nude dress designed by Le fate Milano that fitted perfectly with the allure of the reception dinner.
Accessories by Taala are made in ceramics, to point out the connection with Italy, and the HMUA did a very great job to includes that in her hair style and make up.
The old style texture and design of the stationery, made by Iumi, was driven by the ancient architecture of the two venues: hand made paper, calligraphy, and warm colours found the perfect match with the season and the vibes of the entire event.
Gionata Russo Weddings designed and planned the whole wedding, trying to reflect the personal taste of the couple: “I’ve tried to respect the young age of the couple and find the right way to blend it with the classic and old style of the venues.”
The reception dinner table was created following the minimal trend, super simple but made pleasant by the warm colours of the flowers, and the orange velvet of the chairs.
The wedding was planned in the center of Como and this allow the couple to enjoy an happy walk on the lake side to see the amazing sunset that Lake Como offer to its visitors.
