Lake Como is home to some of the most luxurious venues- with sites drenched in history scattered across the region. There are many unbelievable locations to choose from to host your luxury Lake Como wedding, but one of the largest and most historically important venues of the lake is Villa Balbiano.
Situated between Il Dosso di Lavedo and the Comacine Island in the town of Ossuccio, Villa Balbiano can be traced back to the noble Govio family residence, circa the 16thcentury. Cardinal Tolomeo Gallio was the first to redesign the original palazzo after the drawings of Pellegrino Tibaldi. Through time the palace has been passed down to numerous people who have enlarged and embellished the villa.
The interior of the villa boasts historically detailed 17thcentury frescoes with matching elegant baroque décor. In addition, Villa Balbiano is surrounded by century old manicured gardens, featuring an outdoor pool, fountains and a gorgeous front facing view of the lake. The grounds are equipped with six luxury suites, four additional bedrooms in the left wing and five bedrooms in the adjacent building for guests.
A Villa Balbiano ceremony will take place on the luxurious garden facing the lake, while the reception will take place on the grounds around the pool. In the case of inclement weather, the reception can be moved into the villa’s dining room. Indoor accommodations cater up to 60 people, with the hire of a marquee if there are additional guests. During low season, the palazzo can be rented out for one day-otherwise a minimum of three days is required during the high season.
For a prolongated stay, you and your guests can enjoy either the indoor or outdoor swimming pool, private access to the lake and an onsite gym. Extra services include wine tasting, cooking lessons of local gastronomy, golf courses and a private guide. These are a few among the many additional services you can add to your luxury wedding stay. If you are interested in further information regarding this magical site, please contact us through our website or email.
A luxury wedding is just a reach away! Say I do in Villa Balbiano.
