Jess and Daniel - romantic tale in Como
Jessica & Daniel
Lake Como, Villa del Balbianello
Oct 11th 2024
//
From the hustle of New York City to the stillness of Lake Como's shimmering waters — Jessica and Daniel chose Italy to bring their love story to life in the most magical way. October wrapped the day in soft golden light, making everything feel timeless, almost suspended, as if the universe had paused just for them.
They got ready together in a quiet boutique hotel overlooking the lake. No rush, no distance. Just warm smiles, shared glances, and the quiet joy that comes with choosing presence over perfection.
At sunset, we boarded a classic wooden taxi boat, gliding across the golden water toward one of the lake’s most iconic gems: Villa del Balbianello. Yes, the very one where Star Wars was filmed — and now the setting for a private, deeply emotional exchange of vows and rings on the terrace overlooking the water.
No crowd, no noise. Just the wind through the trees, their words echoing softly between the columns, and — as if scripted by fate — a wild fox emerged quietly from the hedges during their portrait session. A surreal and magical moment, like a scene straight from a Disney fairytale.
This wasn’t just an elopement. It was an experience — ethereal, heartfelt, and timeless. A celebration of love in its purest form, surrounded by beauty, wrapped in magic, and sealed with a view that will live in their hearts forever.
