An Elegant Summer Destination Wedding in Italy from Vinctor's blog

This may be the wedding celebration of Cecile and Mark, who has been married around the 4 August inside a church ceremony in Arona, Lake Maggiore, Italy, then a reception in the majestic. The couple was engaged in March 2017, using their legal ceremony happening in Cecile's hometown in France, a couple of months before their Italian celebration.

"Choosing an outfit wasn't super easy for me. I'm slim, and also have very fair skin, so my biggest fear was appearing like a ghost on my small wedding day! My first knowledge about some well-known wedding designers wasn't positive: I was relayed through friends to reach with nude and strapless underwear and lightweight make-up to prevent damaging the dresses."

"When I tried the 'Elvira' dress, there is a long silence. It's then that I knew it had been the right one. This dress makes me feel powerful and elegant so when I put it on, I feel like I could fly. Even after the marriage, putting it on at home and jumping on my small bed up to I can continue to be a great joy."

Before making their method to the church, Cecile and Mark enjoyed an attractive 'first look' moment together, that was captured in most its joy and delight through the couple's brilliant photographer Matteo.

"Matteo would be a real superstar. He met us in London to have an engagement photo shoot a couple of months before the marriage, and even though I usually hate pictures, Mark and I were immediately put comfortably. We then stayed in contact by email."

"His photos, both on the engagement and also on the wedding day, are stunning and truly reflect the atmosphere of your day. I could not recommend him more. If you are looking for some talented and easy-going photographer, don't hesitate, he's your man!"

The bridesmaids chose blush pink bridesmaid dresses, pastel pink, and coral dresses, that they wore using their shoes, fresh flowers in their hair, and earrings.

"My dad walked me on the aisle, or to become completely honest, I walked my dad on the aisle! It was probably the most stressful moment for me personally, and I did walk extremely fast!"

Cecile and Mark first met soon after high school through mutual friends, whilst both on vacation in Brittany.

"We were built with a mini holiday romance during those couple of days, and both went back to their lives when the holiday was over. We didn't stay in touch at the time. Years later, I went to live in Paris to study, and we met again through the same number of friends."

"Mark was residing in London already, therefore we started an extended-distance relationship, along with a year later I went to live in London to accomplish my Master's degree. We moved in together at that time – it had been supposed to become just for annually – I never moved back!"

Tables were laid around the Castello's beautiful terrace, with white linens and pastel-hued floral centerpieces encompassed by rose gold and glass tealight holders.

"Each guest had two favors alongside their plates: a little bag of tea, along with a personalized Polaroid photo. As a nod to England, each table was named following a type of tea (Earl Grey, Darjeeling, etc.) and guests were given a little bag from the corresponding tea."

As the daylight started to fade within the terrace, the overhead festoon lights started to glow, and everyone enjoyed traditional Italian wedding cake, along with miniature desserts of pannacotta and tiramisu.

"We had also were built with a photobooth from throughout the party and our guests loved it! Pictures were printed around the spot, and that we received a hyperlink with all the photos in the provider around the following day. It was great fun along with a good complement towards the photographer's work."
