A Perfect Celebration: Sample Lake Como Wedding Itinerary

We help you visualize the entire guest journey, ensuring a seamless flow from arrival to departure. This “invisible execution” means you and your guests only experience the magic, not the mechanics. Here is a glimpse of what your celebration could look like:

  • Day 1: The Welcome Dinner.
    • Guests arrive at their hotel before being transported to a private welcome dinner. For a recent client, we arranged an exclusive takeover of a charming restaurant in Bellagio, with tables overlooking the water as evening set in.
  • Day 2: The Wedding Day.
    • The morning is for relaxation. The afternoon ceremony takes place on a manicured lawn overlooking the lake. Afterwards, guests enjoy a post-ceremony prosecco while the couple takes photos on the lake with a Riva boat before returning to the villa for an evening of dining and dancing under the stars.
  • Day 3: The Farewell Brunch.
    • A relaxed brunch at a venue with panoramic views, allowing guests to mingle and reminisce about the celebration before their departure.
