Marry in Lake Como.
Lake Como is Italy's most glamorous lakeside wedding setting — historic villas, frescoed palazzi and terraced gardens dropping to the water, with private piers for boat arrivals. Its estates host elegant celebrations from intimate dinners to grand receptions; May, June, September and early October offer warm days and cool evenings.
