With Papardella’s extensive knowledge of Italy and experience, and an address book with the finest venues, we will ensure that your dream wedding is turned into a breathtaking reality. What could be more spectacular than exchanging vows by shimmering Lake Como, a civil ceremony in a thirteen century castle nestled in the hills of Piemonte, dinner reception in an old farmstead the Chianti region, or in the middle of an olive grove in Puglia. The options are endless. Let us create your perfect Italian wedding.
Wherever the wedding is held, in the city or countryside, many couples are now turning their celebrations into a weekend party. We can help you create a casual Friday night welcome supper in a private house and a reception –an opulent renaissance banquet in a sixteenth century palazzo in Venice or a lazy Sunday brunch for the morning after the big day. Whichever choice of location you make, you have the option to extend your celebration into a weekend party.
A weekend wedding gives couples the chance to spend more time with their family and friends, often somewhere new. One perfect day transformed into a continuous celebration.
