Marvellous and beautiful destination weddings overseas

We hope you enjoy looking through some of the beautiful photos captured at the wedding of Diane and Dave, May 2019 in Malcesine Castle.

The bride was with her Dad in the Hotel Excelsior for the first photos, then we had some photos in and around Malcesine and a fun ride around In the Tuk Tuk. Dad was waving to everyone as they drove through the streets.

Dave waited at the castle for his bride, and looked very nervous, but his face lit up as she walked down the aisle and he carried on smiling all day long.

Champagne and drinks were provided in the grounds of Malcesine Castle, giving the guests time to have a wander round, and gave the bride and groom time for photos with Gwen Courtman, the photographer.

After they left the castle, they were whisked on in the Tuk Tuk, through the narrow streets of Malcesine and to the harbour to board the boat for the lake cruise that would drop them at the reception venue.

The wedding party all arrived smiling and waving on the boat, and went straight into the restaurant for more prosecco and nibbles before dinner and dancing. The speeches were very emotional, even the wedding planner cried.

Lake Garda is one of europe's largest lakes and is Italy’s largest lake, and offers something for everyone, such as sailing, surfing, theme Parks, cable cars, boats and ferries, walking and is very popular for cycling and rock climbing. It is a great place to kick back and relax, or do the opposite and have an activity holiday.


Lake Garda Weddings is Lake Garda's leading wedding planner, we have arranged over 3000 wedding on Lake Garda and have the attention to detail that comes with so much experience. We have an office in the centre of Malcesine with a team of 4 wedding planners. We can assist with flowers, beauty treatments, musicians, transport, boat trips, photography and video, wedding cakes and hair and make up too. You will have a wedding planner with you on your wedding day to translate the ceremony and make sure everything runs smoothly. We will also guide you through the document procedure back home too before the wedding.


We offer civil weddings, but also symbolic ceremonies, blessings and vow renewal ceremonies. We have also had the pleasure of arranging some baby naming ceremonies for couples who married in Malcesine and wished to come back for a symbolic baby naming ceremony.


Lake Garda is surrounded by the Garda Mountains, and is host to 5 main islands, and several smaller uninhabited ones
