"I tried to imagine what our wedding day would feel like, but reality completely blew my expectations away."
"Surrounded by our family and friends in such an incredible setting, the day exceeded everything we could have imagined."
Polly and Will began their day preparing separately, surrounded by their bridesmaids and groomsmen. They then shared an intimate first look at Villa Monastero, a moment filled with genuine emotion. Afterward, they joined their guests at Villa Balbianello for a touching ceremony overlooking the lake. While family and friends enjoyed an aperitif, the newlyweds set off on a private boat ride across Lake Como to capture their first moments together as husband and wife. The evening continued at Villa Balbianello’s Loggia, where an elegant white and green decor set the scene for a festive dinner and dance, with live saxophone music carrying the celebration late into the night.
The ceremony took place within the iconic Loggia Durini at Villa Balbianello, accented by green and white florals and calla lilies along the aisle. Overlooking the unmatched backdrop of Lake Como, Polly and Will exchanged their vows to the romantic melodies of violinists. Filled with tender laughter and happy tears, it was a beautiful and memorable highlight of their day.
The reception began on the terrace of the Loggia, where Polly and Will shared a tender first dance overlooking the lake. Dinner followed in a warm and lively atmosphere, set amidst tables adorned with elegant crystal candelabras and a runner of mixed white flowers and greenery. This beautiful setting led up to a spectacular cake cutting framed by dazzling sparklers. After pouring the champagne tower, the newlyweds kicked off the festivities to the energetic sounds of a live saxophone, surrounded by their guests on the dance floor.
