Wedding in lake como italy

​A huge part of the ​appeal of eloping is the freedom to celebrate in whatever way you choose. And if that choice is a beautiful two-day celebration taking in both ​Lake Como and the Tyrol mountains in Northern Italy, well there's nothing stopping you! That's exactly what Yoki and Alfred did, and their intimate ​destination wedding in Italy may have you rethinking any plans you have for a big, extravagant affair.

One of the best-known villas for a luxury wedding not only in Italy but also worldwide is the impressive Villa Balbiano on the western shore of Lake Como in the municipality of Ossuccio. Built during the late 1600s by Cardinal Tolomeo Gallio and later expanded and enriched with gardens and fountains by Cardinal Durini, an art and literature lover as well as a keen collector, the villa was transformed into a true masterpiece, while being used to hold lavish parties, feasts, and balls.
