Julia and Michael are both from the UK and are both very into medieval settings, especially Michael, who is a lead video game designer. They decided to celebrate their intimate wedding in the Lake district of Malcesine, Italy with family and close friends.
The grand ceremony and reception venue were held at the most picturesque, 13th-century castle, Malcesine Castle on Lake Garda. The terrace overlooked fantastic Lake Garda. A violinist played the Games of Thrones theme song during the exchange of the rings.
After the ceremony, everyone strolled down narrow and historical roads of Malcesine Village towards the harbor where they all got on a boat for a trip on the lake. Fresh aperitif with prosecco wine and canapés were enjoyed by all. Are you jonesing for a trip like this? At least we can live it through their eyes…

I love that this wedding is different from all the rest I’ve seen. The bride’s gown is pretty even though it’s short and I love how her heels complete the look. I will really incorporate my own style when choosing my wedding dress. It just gives it that additional WOW factor.
Those cufflinks are so cool! Those little details help make it feel really personal.
