Discover The Love Story Of The Grooms Who Tied The Knot At Lake Como

Being in love and staying there whilst growing towards your own personal goals is truly a test of time. Same was true for the couple in love - Ameya and Ryan who after 10 years of knowing each other tied the knot. “Even though we come from 2 completely different backgrounds, we connected through our desire to travel the world together and experience many different cultures and diverse foods.” So when Ryan popped the question, 35,000 feet in the air, there was truly no better way to celebrate this much-awaited and memorable moment together than with a bottle of Dom Perignon over the Pacific Ocean.

The couple began planning the wedding of their dreams. To their surprise, they found their perfect spot for the celebration on one of their European getaways. “We love to say that we found our wedding venue on our honeymoon. It fit in perfectly with the vision we had for our Big Day.” For Ameya and Ryan, celebrating their union with their near and dear ones was of highest priority but this surely didn’t keep them from partying in style. From the minimalist décor to the picturesque backdrop of nature, each bit of their planning came together to create a wedding for the books.

Curious about what went on behind the scenes, we got in touch with the couple to hear all about their wedding planning journey and plans after.


The Duo’s Vision

“We knew from the early days of planning that we wanted to have an small destination wedding with our family and closest friends” shared the grooms. The 4 day soiree started with a beautiful champagne toast. From the outfits and décor to the events, the couple perfectly amalgamated both their traditions.


Mehndi And Baraat

“We both really enjoyed the process of watching the artist draw our mehndi designs” shared the couple who hosted this traditional event on the second day. “Our wedding coordinator - Anand Vivaah pulled off what seemed to be an impossible task of closing the streets of Lake Como for our baraat.”


The Wedding

The couple expressed that they wanted an intimate, but beautiful ceremony, overlooking the beautiful Lake Como. “Our dear friend and photographer Iris worked tirelessly to capture the best moments of the day and continue to relive that weekend through the photos we have around our home.”



The Aftermath

The couple’s intimate wedding ceremony continued into a cocktail hour with a wonderful singer which transformed into a memorable reception in an ornate venue at the hotel. “To end the day of celebration, we had a private afterparty where we danced the night away.”
