A wedding planner will always be useful, even if you are looking for something simple. This type of figure in fact is a stress-relief during the whole journey because she knows the area, the vendors, the pros and cons of each spot. She can provide you a list of the most magical spots where to get married, some lovely restaurants to have an intimate dinner, a small bouquet and a buttonhole too.

Photographer & Videographer

Memories are forever, but photo and video too! The best way to show your family and friends your wedding in the iconic Lake Como is to have an excellent team of photographer and videographer. They will be by your side the whole day, from the getting ready to your intimate and lovely dinner. Capturing every moment of the wedding is fundamental.

Hair & make up

In the most important day of your life, you have to shine like a queen! And you need to have a look that will resist to anything, emotions included. For this reason, hiring a professional team that will take care of your hairstyle and make up is part of the essential vendors for your Lake Como elopement.

You can’t say you get married on the Lake if you don’t have a boat ride! Water taxis in Como are very popular, and having a tour of at least 30 minutes will assure not only a beautiful experience, but also iconic pictures of the two of you.

We always suggest to enjoy the wedding day in a relaxed way, from the morning to the evening. This is our suggested timeline for the perfect elopement in Lake Como:

This is just a generic timeline, as you can set the day as you prefer. But in our experience we can say that schedule is the most appreciated by couples. .

We can say that the average starting cost to elope in Lake Como is € 15.000,00. This amount includes a wedding planner, photo and video for 6 hours, a small boat tour, a bouquet and a buttonhole, a dinner for two and a fee for a ceremony venue.
