A GARDEN CEREMONY

The bucolic, romantic ceremony was held near the lake in the park of the villa, considered the most refined goal of the architect Pietro Marchelli. In the creation of an English garden, the park stands out for those elements such as the pond, the cave, and the hills, typical of the romantic conception. He wanted a garden, albeit meticulously designed, with strong naturalistic elements. Bright florals and golden and pink palms frame this splendid couple. Most of the floral arrangements were made by Raffaella Ansaloni and some of the rentals were provided by Mill Eventi Anoleggio and Vivai Morselli.

Subsequently, to have unforgettable couple photos and unique shots, we moved to the front of the villa where the artists of Parola Bianca put on an engaging performance. Also in front of the villa was a splendid table setup. A particularly cozy corner, with a cascade of lights, was set up in the greenhouse by Harry Lugli, the perfect backdrop for our couple. Our romantic wedding ended in a classic but exotic corner of the villa, in which the cutting of the cake, created by Giamberlano, took place.
