When I met Anna, Nathan and the little Lorenzo I was immediatly impressed by the harmony that caracterized that family.
Anna, of Italian origin and Nathan, Greek, but both British of adoption, had chosen the Orta lake for the celebration of their wedding. They called D Day for the planning of the wedding: from the location to the little details.
After some proposals I expected for some weeks before received their definitive chose: civil rite in the Orta town hall and venue at Hotel Villa Crespi. A classic combination for weddings on the lake that guarantees a perfect result.
During the wedding day the sun was shining even if that april had been caracterized from a very bad weather.
The couple slept at Villa Crespi from the day before so the bridal preparation took place there, giving me the possibility of looking at the settings and in the meanwhile follow Anna dressing.
Here she is, shining with the very nice Lorenzo:
Here there are Anna's sisters with their mother
Little buses pick up guests from the hotel to the middle of Orta, when every body was arrived I called Anna boat, by which she was arriving to the town hall.
After some minutes the boat arrived next to the garden of Orta town hall.
a string quartet composed by women (dressed in pink as the colour of wedding) was waiting for the bride
also Nathan was waiting very excited
The ceremony had been celebrated by the civil officiant with a translator
The ceremony had been enriched by Anna sisters vows and underlined by the melodies played, of which one compesed by Nathan for Anna! Everything was perfect!
At the end of the rite tha classic rice tossing took place in the garden
In the meanwhile everything was ready: centerplaces
placecards with old pictures of the lake
menu cards
wadding favors
here I am with my couple, a wedding planner 6 days before the delivery!
Thank to everybody for the collaboration, the support, the comprehension and the friendship.
A special thanks to ENRICO MOCCI for the pictures!
