The stay
We will share nearby stays and travel notes for a dreamy Lake Como weekend.
We’d love to know if you’re planning to join us for our wedding in Lake Como, Italy. We’ll be sharing formal invitations with all the details later this year.
Your note helps us shape the first details of our Lake Como celebration with care.
Little details
Villa del Balbianello is only accessible by water. We will be arranging water taxis for all guests so the journey is seamless. There will be one or two pickup points around Tremezzo that will be shared later.
The ceremony and reception will both be held at Villa del Balbianello on Lake Como, Italy.
Most guests will fly into Milan (Malpensa or Linate airport) and travel by train or car (around 1-1.5 hours). We might be able to organise a mini bus from the train station or airport if needed but please let us know in advance.
We recommend renting a car for the most flexibility during your stay, as public transport and taxis around the lake can be limited and less frequent between towns. Having a car makes it much easier to explore the area at your own pace and travel between villages comfortably.
We strongly recommend staying in Tremezzo or Lenno as this is where the water taxi pickup will be and where most guests accommodation is located. The venue is only accessible by boat, and transport between towns around the lake is very limited, so staying nearby will make the day much easier. We’ll be sharing a curated list of hotels and villas near Lake Como across different budgets.
We love your little ones, but due to venue capacity and the nature of the day, this will be an adults-only celebration. Moms and dads, consider this your well-deserved night off!
We’re only able to accommodate guests invited due to strict capacity limits at the venue.
Your presence is the greatest gift to us, especially with the effort of travelling to celebrate with us in Italy. However, for those who wish to contribute, we will have a wishing well at the reception.
We recommend not travelling with physical gifts due to luggage restrictions.
Women: Elegant summer garden formal, please wear colours especially pastel tones. Over the knee length. No white, black, grey or dark colours. Ladies, please note that the ceremony and cocktail hour will take place on gravel so we recommend not to wear stiletto heels. Comfortable block heels or taking flats with you are recommended. Men: Formal suits, think linen suits, light colours. Preferably no black. Dress code moodboard added later for reference.
We kindly ask guests to be present in the moment during the ceremony but during the rest of the wedding you are welcome to take as many photos and videos as you want. We’ll share professional photos afterward.
Yes, we’re planning a welcome event an evening before the wedding day on 06.07.27 and will share details soon.
Formal invitations with RSVP details will be sent closer to the date once plans are finalised.
In early July, Lake Como is typically warm and sunny. You can expect daytime temperatures around 25-33°C, with cooler evenings by the lake. It’s generally a beautiful time of year, with long daylight hours and a very relaxed summer atmosphere.
Villa del Balbianello has both indoor and outdoor areas, but most of the celebration will be outdoors weather permitting.
A covered option is in place so the celebration will continue beautifully.
