Why Lake Como Should Be at the Top of Your Destination Wedding List

For Newly Engaged Aussie Couples Dreaming Big

Congratulations - you're engaged! Now begins one of the most exciting parts of your love story: planning the wedding. And if you're dreaming beyond the borders of Australia, let us introduce you to a place where romance is woven into every cobblestone street, lakeside villa, and sunset toast - Lake Como, Italy.

As an Aussie-based couple looking for a dreamy yet meaningful destination, here's why Lake Como might just be the place to say “I do.”

1. The Romance of the Italian Lakes

Lake Como is a cinematic dream come to life. Surrounded by the dramatic Alps and dotted with storybook places starting from the main city Como and villages like Brienno, Bellaggio, Cadenabbia and more, it’s a setting that feels both timeless and indulgent.

It's not just a wedding - it's an experience your guests will talk about for years.

2. A Destination Wedding That’s Worth the Journey

Yes, Lake Como is on the other side of the world - but that's exactly what makes it unforgettable. Imagine bringing your closest friends and family together for a week of celebration in one of the most romantic corners of Europe. From Aperol spritzes at sunset to cruising the lake with your bridal party, it's not just a wedding day, it's an extended holiday.

And with so many Aussies already well-versed in international travel, why not turn your wedding into the ultimate getaway?

3. You Won't Be Alone

Planning a wedding abroad can feel overwhelming - different languages, time zones, and cultural nuances. That’s where we come in. At Lario Wedding International, we specialise in helping Australian couples plan breathtaking weddings in Lake Como. We speak the language (literally and culturally), understand what Aussie couples value, and make the entire process feel seamless - from venue selection to post-wedding prosecco brunches.

4. Iconic Venues That Go Beyond the Pinterest Board

From luxurious villas like Villa Balbianello (hello, James Bond!) to charming garden ceremonies overlooking the lake, Lake Como offers a stunning variety of backdrops. Whether you’re envisioning a big day or an intimate elopement, there's a venue to match every vision — and we'll help you find the one.

5. A Lifetime of Memories — Not Just a Day

One of the most magical things about a destination wedding in Lake Como is that it lingers. It’s not just the wedding photos that will take your breath away — it’s the espresso-fuelled mornings in the piazza, the laughter echoing over long Italian dinners, the sparkle of the lake at dusk. It becomes more than just a wedding — it becomes a chapter of your love story that you'll treasure forever.
