Effortless Elegance at This Lake Como Elopement at Villa Monastero

Villa Monastero is a timeless choice for a Lake Como Elopement. The bride, coming from Australia, was so beautiful and elegant in her lacey white dress. As one of Italy’s most luxurious destinations, Lake Como with expansive villas and manicured gardens surrounded by serene turquoise water and rolling mountains is the ideal choice, it’s no wonder that so many couples dream of saying “I do” in Lake Como!

A beautiful couple coming from Australia

Abigail and Daniel, a beautiful couple from Australia, immediately knew that Lake Como exuded the sophistication they wanted for their wedding. However, they needed a bit of assistance to bring their visions to life. Since Leoventi has nearly 20 years of experience planning Lake Como weddings, the couple wholeheartedly trusted our team to help!

Starting their day at an upscale hotel in the glamorous area of Bellagio, Abigail got ready alongside her mother. Already stunning, it didn’t take much for her to look like a model. Once her hair and makeup were complete and she slipped her lacey white dress on, Abigail was ready to head to the venue in a sleek boat taxi arranged by Leoeventi.

Ceremony at Villa Monastero in Varenna

When choosing a venue for their ceremony, Villa Monastero was an easy choice for Abigail and Daniel. With a romantic balcony overlooking the lake, Villa Monastero is one of the most stunning spots for outdoor ceremonies in Lake Como. Between its classic Italian architecture and bright botanical garden, this villa is not only perfect for ceremonies but also for photoshoots.

When the ceremony began, everyone was mesmerized by the bride’s beauty, the groom’s emotional reaction, and the incredible views in every direction. With Leoeventi’s founder Monica serving as the celebrant, the couple exchanged vows and lit a unity candle during their intimate symbolic ceremony.

Sealing the deal with a romantic kiss, Abigail and Daniel’s ceremony came to an end. However, the celebration was just beginning! With their seven guests, the couple enjoyed a complimentary toast from Leoeventi with a local prosecco.

Photoshoot at Villa Melzi

Then, it was time to take some photos to commemorate their grand day. Once the couple had taken some pictures with their guests, Abigail and Daniel snuck off for some private photos at Villa Melzi. On their boat ride to the next villa, the couple enjoyed an intimate moment together, which was beautifully captured by one of our talented photographers.

While Villa Melzi does not host ceremonies on their property, their impressive gardens serve as the perfect backdrop for wedding pictures. During their photoshoot here, Abigail and Daniel got to experience all of the magic of Villa Melzi, and they were even able to take some photos on a classic Italian Vespa!

Lake Tour on a stylish boat

For their final stop of the day, Abigail and Daniel hopped onto the stylish boat one last time to meet up with their other guests for dinner. At an elegant restaurant right on the lake, the couple shared an impeccable meal with a breathtaking view to celebrate the start of their marriage.

The perfect ending to a perfect day, the newlyweds were overjoyed with how well their Lake Como wedding turned out. Because of Leoeventi’s planning and support from start to finish, Abigail and Daniel were able to truly focus on celebrating their love for each other!
