Elegant Wedding on Lake Maggiore
Polina and Simon
Lake Maggiore is a wonderful refined destination for an Italian Wedding. It has a charming and elegant history that will make you dream.
As the matter of fact back in 1800 all famous poets, writers, princesses and princes used to travel to Lake Maggiore as part of their Grand Tour.
Grand Hotels on Lake Maggiore hosted many important people of the past and among all we can remember Grand Hotel Des Iles Borromées which hosted Ernest Hemingway. He stayed here for some months and during his staying he wrote his Farewell to Arms.
He wrote it from a very special suite of the hotel that overlooks Borromeo Island.
Yes! Borromeo Islands are part of all this charm. The charming presence of Isola Bella, Isola Pescatori and Isola Madre in the middle of the Lake complete a perfect frame.
Gardens, flowers, Alps in the background, boats sailing and wonderful villas are the key of a perfect wedding on Lake Maggiore.
It is just in the gardens of Grand Hotel Des Iles Borromées where Polina and Simon tied the knot.
Their moving yet happy and fun wedding Canadian- Russian ceremony was performed in overlooking the Lake and its Islands. The scenario was just magic!

After the ceremony the bride and groom took a lovely boat tour with their bridal party on the lake to reach Isola Bella for enchanting photos. They cannot miss if you plan a wedding on Lake Maggiore!
In the meanwhile the guests got on a fun touristy train on wheels to reach a romantic 1800 villa.
They enjoyed a delicious Italian aperitif in the lush gardens with Italian style fountain waiting for Polina and Simon’s grand entrance!
As soon bride and groom arrived the party could begin. It was a great party in a wonderful villa overlooking Lake Maggiore. Dinner, wedding decor, music, wedding cake cutting and dj set afterwards left everybody speechless!
Lake Maggiore and its Belle Epoque Italian style is a great option for a refined wedding.
A fantastic option for the couples who are looking for the authentic charm of ancient times.
