A Civil wedding in Lake Orta is truly magic.

An enchanted lake, a real jewel of ancient times. It welcomes you in its shores rocking you with its azure water. A boat takes the bride to the private jetty of Villa Bossi, where the old wrought iron gate is opened only for welcoming the bride and groom who will swear eternal love.

Civil weddings in Lake Orta are celebrated here, in the gardens of Villa Bossi, an elegant 17th century villa right on the lake which is a majestic background for romantic Lake Orta weddings.

And around you the picturesque village of Orta San Giulio; ancient slate roofs, tiny streets of cobblestones and flower-filled balconies sprouting from stone houses.

The impression is of being in front of a painting sketched on the blue canvas of the lake! The magical atmosphere of this medieval village has enchanted travellers and lovers over the centuries and along with the delighted beauty of Villa Bossi make your weddings Lake Orta an ideal setting for an outside of time event.

In case of adverse climate conditions, the civil wedding can be hosted inside the villa, in a charming and intimate marriage hall furnished with ancient decor. If you wish to add a touch of romance and poem to the ceremony ask for a classic violin or harp live music background.
