Micro-Mariage Glamour à la Villa Balbiano au bord du Lac de Côme

Bridal Inspiration at Lake Como

A preserved historic cachet - Spectacular 17th century frescoes painted by the brothers Recchi and Agostino Silva still adorn the walls - and an ideal location on the western shore of Lake Como: the Villa Balbiano , a jewel dating from the 16th century, is certainly one of the most glamorous and luxurious wedding venues one could dream of. Inspired by this majestic place, photographer Vivid Symphony imagined a luxury and joyful micro-wedding . Let’s open the doors of this amazing “Palazzo” and discover the images and all the fabulous details of this Glamorous Micro-Wedding at Villa Balbiano.

Joie de Vivre at Villa Balbiano

From Photographer Vivid Symphony:The basic idea for this shoot was to create the setting for a small, intimate wedding celebration with a real couple. Elopements are currently popular and serve as an inspiration for lots of bridal couples. We wanted to show a relaxed, luxurious life, joy of life, and pleasure. Our flat lays have been decorated with many unique details, including an original antique Italian postcard of the villa and a beautiful Florentine tray from Bellagio. Marry and Lilo made a styling mat made of golden velvet especially for the shoot.

The bride ´ s look created by makeup artist Annett Anders looks effortless and elegant at the same time. It is topped off by a breathtaking romantic shoulder-free lace dress from Willow by Watters and bridal lace boots by Bella Belle.

A wedding ceremony on the villa´s pier

Their emotional first look took place on the lakefront with an amazing mountain view. The wedding ceremony took place on the villa's pier. The heads of the columns were adorned with lush floral decorations. Curved flowering branches, that seem to meet in the middle, form a natural wedding arch. How romantic is it when the bridal couple arrives by boat at the villa's pier beautifully decorated with such an amazing flower arrangement? After their boat trip, they received their guests and celebrated their beautiful day together at the villa's magical winter garden.

Baroque and romantic wedding decoration

The colors that we have chosen for this shoot you can find in the villa itself: warm terracotta tones, soft cream, delicate rose, and smoky blue. Playful floral candelabras, luxurious tableware by Vista Alegre, elegant cutlery, and romantic flower decoration fit harmoniously into the playful baroque style of the location created by Magnolias on Silk . The elegant Louis XVI chairs by Latini Design complement the decoration design just perfectly.
