At only 45 minutes drive from Malpensa Airport, a Lake Orta Wedding is the perfect choice for a sophisticated wedding in Italy. Set like an emerald jewel, it is surrounded by gently rolling wooded hills. Its romance has inspired artists, poets and writers from all over the world for century and for lovers it is hopelessly romantic..
Cream-colored houses roofed with thick slate tiles arranged like a display of biscuits, narrow streets, stone houses, flowers blooming brightly on balconies, lacy wrought iron gates and charming old buildings. Its main place is like a parlor closed on three sides by porticos, in the shade of which small shops do a brisk trade, while the café terraces have tables reaching right to the water’s edge. Orta has the same atmosphere as in the ancient times and wandering among its streets and piazzas is a magic experience. Take a break and drink a coffee and you will see the Island of San Giulio that seems to float in mid-air, magically suspended, unsure of its position between heaven and earth. You can reach it by a boat in 10 minutes: it is worth all the time that can be given to its exploration. Its elegant, arcaded houses, narrow alleys and sudden lake views are treasures beyond words.
You can get married at the wedding hall in the town square , a sixteenth-century building with frescoed walls, an outside stairway and a tiny campanile breaking through the grey roof like a chimney. Or at the elegant Villa Bossi, a beautiful 17th century villa facing the Lake of Orta.
Your Lake Orta Wedding will have the same atmosphere as in the ancient times and you will live and relive it as in a fairytale.
