Couples usually decide to have a destination wedding in Lake Como during spring or summer, to enjoy the sunshine and an outdoor wedding with a breathtaking view. Whilst the lake is more alive during the summer and a lot of hotels and restaurants close down during winter, if you were to have a wedding in December around Christmas time it can equally be as beautiful and magical.
There are some venues which are actually perfect for a winter wedding in Lake Como.
These venues remain open all year round.
All the venues are situated in the city. Being in a city rather than a town offers you plenty of accommodation options and lots of things to do during your stay. Christmas markets, ice skating with a stunning lake view, skiing and snow boarding, drinking muled wine by the shore of Lake Como and truly enjoying the place without so many tourists around. You can celebrate your wedding and enjoy the festive season in one of the most romantic and splendid places in the world.
Lets talk about colours….
If you want to avoid the traditional Christmas red and green then you can choose something like berry, a mix of shades of red and purple. You can also choose white, silver, gold and greenery which is the 2017 colour of the year. Refer to Pantone to find the perfect colours for your day.
Decorations can be simple, classic & chic. Chandeliers, lots and lots of candles, wooden lanterns, fairy lights, string of crystals and garlands. Refer to our Pinterest Christmas board for inspirations.
A beautifully decorated Christmas tree is a MUST at your ceremony and your reception. How about mini trees as centrepieces on every table?
Fabulous Italian food and lots of red wine. Eat, drink and be married!
Weddings in Lake Como are no longer just for summer. Combine the magical Christmas season with your fairty tale day!
