Hollie and Josh’s beautiful Villa Cipressi wedding in Lake Como was the perfect blend of timeless elegance, breathtaking scenery and relaxed Italian romance. Set on the shores of Lake Como beneath glorious sunshine and blue skies, their Villa Cipressi wedding brought together stunning florals, incredible lake views and an unforgettable atmosphere from beginning to end.
Wedding Ceremony at Villa Cipressi, Lake Como
The day began with a beautiful outdoor ceremony overlooking Lake Como, where Hollie and Josh exchanged personal vows surrounded by family and friends. Framed by elegant white florals and panoramic views across the lake, the setting could not have been more spectacular.
Following the ceremony, guests enjoyed aperitivo on the terraces while taking in the scenery and celebrating beneath the Italian sunshine. Family photographs and relaxed moments with guests followed before everyone explored the beautiful gardens and pathways that make a Villa Cipressi wedding in Lake Como so special.
Villa Cipressi Wedding Reception
One of the highlights of the day was a private boat tour across Lake Como, allowing Hollie and Josh to experience some of the region’s most iconic views while capturing portraits on the water.
Back at Villa Cipressi, guests gathered for dinner overlooking the lake as a live saxaphone player performed throughout the evening. Heartfelt speeches, incredible food and a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere created the perfect setting for the celebrations.
As the sun began to set over Lake Como, Hollie and Josh cut their wedding cake on the Cipressi Terrace before sharing their first dance surrounded by family and friends. Following a dress change and a second portrait session around the villa, the evening continued with music, laughter and unforgettable views across the lake.

From the stunning lakeside ceremony to the boat tour, elegant styling and spectacular Lake Como backdrop, Hollie and Josh’s Villa Cipressi wedding was a beautiful example of a stylish destination wedding in Italy. The day blended natural moments with refined details, creating the kind of imagery that perfectly reflects my editorial wedding photography approach.
