What are the best photography locations for a Villa Pizzo wedding?
Interior photography
A Villa Pizzo wedding offers some of the most stunning backdrops for photography, making it a premier choice for destination weddings in Lake Como. A charming stone staircase guides guests down to the lake level, where four elegant halls captivate with portraits, intricately painted ceilings, refined stucco work, and luxurious furnishings.
One of my personal favorites is the Muggiasca Hall, known for its bright walls and soft natural light. It is the largest of the four, accommodating up to 60 guests for dinner or serving as a dance floor for larger celebrations. A more intimate hall is ideal for private dining and the remaining two medium-sized halls can host approximately 20-30 guests for a seated dinner. On the second floor of the villa, there is a Bridal Suite.
Lakeside gardens
The Darsena is especially captivating. It is a stunning two-level stone terrace extending over the water, creating a magical setting for both intimate and grand celebrations. Its versatility allows for anything from understated elegance to lavish, extravagant décor, serving as a blank canvas for any wedding vision. A grand entrance is guaranteed: the bride emerges from the garden path, descends the short staircase, and walks down the aisle as classical music sets the scene for an unforgettable ceremony. The Darsena can accommodate up to 200 guests. Villa Pizzo’s gardens are particularly extensive. In fact, villa Pizzo has several conservation projects inviting trained horticulturists from all over the world. These offer vast variety for photography, including the secluded Orangerie Garden and the romantic Garden of the Eye.
Private Boat Access
The private peer guarantees you can begin your Lake Como wedding with a breathtaking boat entrance, setting the tone for an unforgettable day. In addition, the easy boat access means you can easily embark for a boat photoshoot.
