ISABELLA & JAKE

Lake Como, Italy

This destination wedding at Villa Balbiano unfolded as a refined, multi-location celebration rooted in both tradition and heritage. Following a classic Catholic ceremony at a historic church, guests gathered for cocktail hour at Villa Balbiano overlooking Lake Como before transitioning into an elegant reception beneath a glass house–style tent. A palette of creams, champagne, and soft blue set a timeless foundation, while meaningful details told a personal story — from Murano glass chandeliers honoring the bride’s family ties to Venice to a vibrant escort display inspired by the colorful hillside homes of Olinda, Brazil, thoughtfully weaving her Brazilian heritage into the weekend.
