ABOUT THE WEDDING

Italy is a dream destination for couples who want to celebrate their love in style. Its stunning landscapes, romantic atmosphere, and exquisite cuisine make it a place where fairy tales come true. That’s why this lovely couple decided to tie the knot in Italy, at the Hotel Wine Relais Villa Cordevigo. Their wedding weekend was incredible, full of laughter, tears and dancing.

The venue, a luxury hotel located near Lake Garda, blends tradition and innovation. The historic architecture and the refined gardens create a classy vibe, while the modern facilities offer everything guests need. This cultural fusion makes Hotel Wine Relais Villa Cordevigo one of the best wedding venues in Italy. Villa Cordevigo is more than a hotel, it’s a wine relais that produces and sells its own fine wines from the grapes grown on its estate. The estate spans 100 hectares of land, where the sunny vineyards produce the grapes for the prestigious wines of Vigneti Villabella, founded in 1971 by Walter Delibori and Giorgio Cristoforetti. The wine relais offers wine tasting tours, where guests can discover the history and the quality of the wines, and enjoy the flavors and aromas of the local products. Villa Cordevigo is also a place of wellness, with its modern spa that offers a variety of treatments and facilities, such as whirlpool bath, sauna, Turkish bath, gym, and relaxation room.
The bride and groom welcomed their guests for a whole weekend, which gave us the opportunity to capture not only their beautiful ceremony in the gardens and the forest, but also their friends and family’s happiness as they gathered to celebrate the newlyweds. We were honored to be part of this amazing event and we were delighted to preserve the wonderful moments that the couple will cherish forever. The day before the wedding all the guests were gathering for a welcome dinner. We took the chance to also shoot some portraits of the lovely couple. The wedding day was a day full of laughter. The couple was dressed elegantly and beautifully, and during the ceremony there were a lot of tears and laughter. Just before the ceremony ended, it started to pour down, which made everyone seek cover at the covered chapel next to the ceremony place. It was a unique way to end the ceremony, everyone was close to each other and had fun. After the rain stopped, we took some portraits of the couple in the gorgeous garden. We had some time for this, so we could really capture what we wanted and to give our couple the best possible photos of them. After this the dinner started, followed by a small party in the garden with some live music. What a day… A wedding in the Verona area is a unique experience. With Lake Garda, the romantic city of Venice, and the fashion capital of Milan nearby, a destination wedding in Italy has everything a couple could wish for. From natural outdoor settings to boutique shops that offer classic decorations, clothing, and gifts for guests, Italy has it all. Destination weddings are more and more popular, but there is something timeless about celebrating your love in the land of romance. This is your day, and we are here to capture the memories that will last a lifetime. As a husband and wife photography team, we would be honored to be your photographers for your destination wedding in Italy. We know how important it is to preserve the memories of your special day, and we would love to create timeless images that you and your loved ones will treasure for a lifetime.
