We knew we wanted to get married abroad but didn’t really know where to start. Malcesine castle and lake Garda weddings were recommended to us by a friend who had been to a wedding there before. We got in touch and from this first contact they have been absolutely fantastic. They arranged everything down to the last detail and always responded promptly with helpful information. The booking process couldn’t be simpler, we were given lots of options, kept fully updated via emails and all costs were fully itemised so we could keep an eye on the budget.

We had never been to malcesine before our wedding so we put a lot of trust in the whole team but when we arrived everything far outweighed our expectations. The place itself is breathtakingly beautiful and Deborah our wedding coordinator took us around the town and showed us exactly how everything would work. I normally ask a lot of questions but I didn’t need to ask anything as she covered everything before I even thought of it.

I had my hair done in the morning and again the hairdresser was superb. She did exactly what I wanted in no time at all. The salon is literally right next to the castle so it all worked beautifully and to be honest our day couldn’t have gone any better. We had our reception at la voglia too. Not only is this an incredible location but the food was out of this world and the service was just as good.

Gwen was our photographer and again she was fantastic. So accommodating and clearly extremely talented! I don’t normally like having my photo taken at all but I absolutely love the photos she took and will show them to anyone who will look!

There was no stress involved at all. Either in the run up or on the day. People kept remarking about how laid back we were but it’s just because we knew that they had everything covered. When we came back we had a party for all those who couldn’t come to Italy and trying to organise the party was much more stressful than the actual main event!

I would recommend lake Garda weddings and malcesine to anyone. In fact people can’t shut me up about how good it is! Everyone who came to our wedding have said they were hugely impressed by how smoothly everything ran and how great the wedding coordinator was. It really was the best day ever and we are so so happy that we chose Malcesine and lake Garda weddings as our host. I really think you get so much more for your money compared to weddings in the UK and if we could do it all over again we would!
