Fate wanted our spouses Claudia and Domenico to get married in Verona, in the historic estate Relais & Chateaux Villa del Quar, which belongs to the bride's family. The ancient villa, with magnificent lounges and a beautiful park surrounded by vineyards, has become the ideal place for a traditional Italian wedding.

In choosing colors our couple has given preference to shades of green and white. Bouquet of the bride in peonies of pastel colors, as well as the boutonnieres of the groom and witnesses. The set up for the Catholic ceremony and the floral decoration for the wedding lunch were designed in the same classical style. Numerous were the guests from all over the world, who enthusiastically supported the style chosen by the bridal: black tie. Each guest received a personal gift: personalized bracelets for ladies and green silk ties for men, embroidered with the initials of the bride and groom and the date of their wedding.

The ceremony took place in an ancient church, linked to the story of the bride, where her baptism and the marriage of her parents were celebrated. The aperitif, accompanied by Italian musicians, was organized in the pool area of ​​the villa, while lunch was served on the rooftop terrace. Table were decorated with original compositions of green apples, wood, natural fabrics and fresh flowers. Throughout the evening, guests could experience a bit of their childhood in a classic kiosk with cotton candy and ice cream, and have the opportunity to participate in fun rides.

At the time of the cake cut, the villa became a true fairytale castle, thanks to a special lighting and hundreds of candles and lanterns, hanging on olive trees or lying on the grass.
