Lake Como the winner for Italian destination wedding

Much like its position in the list of favorite places for destination weddings in Italy, Lake Como is comfortably, elegantly hidden just a few slots from the top. Understated, classic, beautiful but never with the flashy, ostentatious or overly recognized traits of Italy’s most famous destinations (such as Rome, Florence or Venice), Lake Como is, even as one of the 20 most beautiful lakes in the world, according to Fodor’s, a location marked by subdued glamor . Its stunning beauty can easily leave visitors speechless, as the write-up in Huffington Post points out, calling it a “…place where you can stroll amid palm trees and blooming rhododendrons while admiring snow-capped mountains”. Fodor’s emphasizes one of Lake Como’s most enchanting and unique qualities: its balance between the look and feel of Renaissance Italy and Victorian England. It is this unusual charm that lures in the attentions of couples choosing an Italian venue as their picture-perfect destination wedding location.

Lake Como forms part of a coast lined with small villages, palaces, villas and an enticing mix of modern and classical scenes in Italy’s Lombardy region. With its mild, Mediterranean-like climate, incomparable landscape and the abundance of activities – particularly water-sport activities – available to visitors, it is not a surprise that Lake Como is perceived both as one of Europe’s most beautiful lake-set destinations but as one of its most interesting. With a history that includes the building of villas as far back as Roman times, and countless references to Lake Como and its beauty in world literature, Lake Como is a storied location with art, culture and history hidden in its every corner.

This attractiveness has begun to take root in the events and wedding planning arena as well. Couples looking for the best Italy has to offer, conveniently located off the beaten path but not too far from a hub like Milan, coupled with a bit less of the hubbub that surrounds Italy’s most famous destinations need look no further than Lake Como and its elegant but laid-back feel.
