The destination wedding on Lake Como of Ekaterina and Kirill was one of the most heartwarming and refined this year. It is a perfect example for future newly weds of how to organize and spend their wedding day in Italy, surrounded by their near and dear. It was relaxed, fun, beautiful and home-felt.

The groom, bride and their guests met on a villa in the town of Bellagio. It was a perfect beginning for a wedding day – there was silence, singing of the birds that were just awakening and dew on the flowers of a hideaway garden. Then everyone headed to the official ceremony in Bellagio Town Hall. A Como lake boat trip followed and a wedding couple photo session at the famous Villa Balbianello. And we can proudly claim that it was only after all these events that the wedding day has really started!

There was a surprise waiting for the couple during their lunch the owner of the “Hotel Restaurant & Holiday SILVIO” has arrived on board of a helicopter to congratulate the newly wed personally. A parade of a swan family was a perfect compliment of a sunset photo session at lake Como and the cake cutting was the most emotional and long lasting we can remember. Ekaterina and Kirill cut even the decorative plastic layer and had broken several knives, trying to cut the first slice of the cake. In the end one of the lanterns took off and vanished in the skies, although it had a little side hole that had to prevent it. Indeed, big and faithful love is accompanied by big miracles!
