Luxury Elopement in Venice

Elopements are the perfect way of having the most unique and personalized event, entirely built upon the couple. Some couples opt for a wild, carefree day; some others are all about having a glamorous and luxurious elopement experience, and we can easily say that Donna and Joel fit into the latter category! Every detail of this elopement felt like a high-fashion fairy tale. Starting with the dress, Donna flew from Seattle to Australia several times to work with ms. Anna Campbell herself to create the most amazing, “romantic and Italian” wedding dress! Donna and Joel got ready in the beautiful suites of Ca Sagredo, and shared the most romantic first look in the unforgettable Sala della Musica.  As Donna said when interviewed for Junebug Weddings,

“I think my favorite moment from my wedding is when we had our first look. We had Andrea Bocelli playing in the background. The building we were in was centuries old and full of history and grand splendor. The grand Canal was just outside our window and the moment was filled with so much emotion and love.”

The grandiose frescoes were somehow a leitmotiv of their wedding day, in the splendid Venice tradition: for their ceremony, the couple chose the spectacular, historical Sala Capitolare di Scuola Grande dei Carmini. Their wedding ceremony was intimate and romantic, and it was followed by a walk, a water taxi, and a gondola ride around Venice, as you know wat they say, Venice is truly experienced by its water!

Their wedding night ended splendidly in the charm of the Gritti Palace, where a romantic table for two was the cherry on top of such an exquisite luxury elopement in Venice.
