Georgina  & Andrew Lucia  Wedding

Wedding in Venice on September 15th, 2007 

 

Ciao Martina

I just wanted to write to let you know what a wonderful wedding we had in Venice.  Many of our guests commented on it being one of the best weddings they had been to, it was such an event!  

I don't know where to begin so I will start with the Dei Dogi hotel - the staff were fabulous there.  Tanya was very helpful and followed all my requests for table layouts etc.  The waiting staff during the meal were super efficient, friendly and charming and really went out of their way to provide 5 star service.  The food was magnificent (one guest said this was the best wedding meal he had ever eaten) with the mushroom risotto a particular winner (I could eat it now just thinking about it!).  The bedroom they gave us was unbelievable and we had to do a guided tour so all our guests could see it.  My only comment about the venue was that we couldn't hear the music outside, when we originally spoke you did say that we would be able to hear it but we couldn't and they really needed speakers outside.

I am so glad you recommended having the pictures taken in St Mark's Square - when we walked in everyone started clapping and lots of tourists started taking our photograph - we felt like celebrities!  The photographer and videographer were very good and we can't wait to see the final results!

I was really pleased we went for the individual water taxi's - it looked like we were in an action film when we all filed out one by one into the lagoon on our way to the hotel.  It was definitely a unique form of transport to our wedding venue.

Pastor Plescan's service was lovely, he is such a nice man and we are really pleased he agreed to marry us.  The organist he arranged for us was great and played the hymns we requested perfectly (I don't know if she had played them before or not but it certainly sounded like she had).

Can you please say thank you to Luisella and the other lady that turned up at the hotel (I am so sorry I didn't get her name) but she was absolutely lovely and helped my mum get me into my dress - my mum said she couldn't have done it without her!

Thanks so much to you and everyone at Exclusive Italy for making our wedding day so special, the last 11 months of planning have been a really memorable and fun time culminating in the most perfect day on the 15th September!!


Kind regards

Mr & Mrs Lucia x
