Danielle And Amar: elegant wedding on lake como

Elegance and Beauty

Exactly one year ago, on New Year’s Eve 2023, I received an e-mail and a message on IG at the same time. It was Danielle, a bride who was asking me for availability for a wedding in September, an elegant wedding on Lake Como. I remember very well that it was just after midnight and I was celebrating New Year’s Eve with my friends, slightly drunk. And I also remember very well being amazed by this request, made on two different channels, to make sure I received it.

Danielle and Amar's Exquisite Affair. elegant wedding on lake como

Danielle and Amar, hailing from the United States, embarked on an unforgettable journey to celebrate their elegant wedding on Lake Como, Italy. Choosing two of the region’s most distinguished venues, Villa Balbianello and the Grand Hotel Tremezzo, they crafted a narrative as timeless as the surroundings. In separate rooms at the Grand Hotel Tremezzo, Danielle, accompanied by her bridesmaids and mother, and Amar, in quiet contemplation, set the stage for a day that would unfold in elegance in the Lake Como.

Danielle and Amar decided to meet for the first time not during the ceremony, but in the enchanting garden of the Grand Hotel Tremezzo. The bride and groom’s first look was a romantic, intimate and intense moment, just for the two of them: Amar, with his back turned, waited impatiently for Danielle’s entrance, marking the start of a captivating couple shoot that wound its way through the hotel’s lush surroundings, a scenic water taxi ride and ended in the timeless garden of Villa Balbianello, maybe the most famous Lake Como villa, where the splendour of lake provided the backdrop for this elegant wedding on Lake Como. Danielle and Amar took a romantic walk, away from the gaze of their guests who were meanwhile arriving at the venue by water taxi.

As guests gathered at the venues, an atmosphere charged with excitement enveloped the elegant wedding on Lake Como. The ceremony, skillfully conducted by a close friend who asked to all the guests not to use their phone (VERY good advice), wove the story of Danielle and Amar’s love. Weather played its part, introducing an unpredictable element to the day, yet withholding rain until the dinner’s conclusion. It was a stroke of luck that gave us soft, enveloping light throughout the day, but without the need to open umbrellas.

Dinner commenced with an unconventional burst of energy — spontaneous dancing and the joyful popping of sparkling wine bottles, setting a tone of lighthearted celebration. The true spectacle, however, unfurled after the heartfelt speeches, and began with a romantic first dance between the bride and the groom. Then, an electric DJ set set the dance floor ablaze, transforming the elegant wedding on Lake Como into a celebration not just of union but of unbridled joy. This wasn’t merely a wedding; it was an extraordinary testament to the sheer fun and excitement that can be found in the heart of an elegant Lake Como celebration. This was the beautiful wedding of Danielle and Amar!
