Weddings on the lake

Two newlyweds seen from behind aboard a classic Riva at rest in front of an island on the lake, in the afternoon light

Your wedding on Lake Maggiore or Lake Orta, from the Riva to the helicopter, from the vintage car to the venue, right through to the rings. Every detail I coordinate myself, you simply choose.

Do you need a wedding planner?

If you are organising your wedding yourselves and are looking for a wedding planner who knows the lakes, I can put you in touch with selected professionals who work on Lake Maggiore and Lake Orta.

The Riva

A vintage Riva all to yourselves, with a dedicated skipper. Leaving the ceremony on the water, the tour of the islands, photographs at sunset. On request I add a professional photographer, with drone footage.

The helicopter

The helicopter is the moment everyone remembers. You land at your venue, or you leave at the end of the party with your guests looking up. And between the ceremony and the reception, a flight over the lake brings home photographs that do not exist from the ground.

Separate quote, on request.

The vintage cars

On the road the cars travel with a driver. For your arrival inside a private space you can drive them yourselves. The car stays at your disposal for the whole of the service, from getting ready to the end of the reception.

The luxury cars

If you prefer a contemporary look, I also have modern and sporty cars, with a driver or for you to drive. The photographs give an idea: I choose the model with you, according to the date and the route.

The exclusive venues

A private garden that opens onto the lake, a terrace where you dine with the lights on the water, a space of your own where nobody else is celebrating that day.

I work with selected venues on Lake Maggiore and Lake Orta. Tell me how many guests you are expecting and what atmosphere you are looking for: I will propose the right space.

Your rings

I work with a goldsmith’s workshop on Lake Maggiore that makes to measure. One appointment, one fitting, delivery before the day. Not a catalogue: I guide you through the choice myself.
