Sara & Gaetano had their first encounter in the United States - specifically in Ann Arbor, which is located near Detroit. Sara was doing research at the University of Michigan and Gaetano worked for Chrysler at that time. "We met outside a club - thanks to mutual friends of ours -  and since then we have never left each other’s side”, Sara tells us. From when we were in Ann Arbor, we began seeing each other during every single free minute, sharing those little everyday things such as: food shopping at 11pm, doing laundry, taking our first trips together, and evenings with friends. I immediately fell in love with his charisma, his gallantry and even his bit of madness: a perfect cocktail! After returning from the United States, we began a long-distance relationship, as we come from different cities. Yet - despite all of the difficulties - we never thought even for a second that it wasn’t worth it!" 

"During our event planning, we visited numerous wedding venues on Lake Garda, but only in la Casa degli Spiriti did we find the exact atmosphere that we were looking for: the perfect environment to have an emotional outdoor ceremony, and a place where our guests could celebrate an elegant and refined wedding. The professionalism of the staff, the high level cuisine, and the service allowed us to understand that we would be sure to conquer all of our guests. Celebrating our wedding with a view on Lake Garda was truly our dream -  and we are happy that it came true! Even if only a few months have passed since our Big Day, we still think that our wedding was perfect! Even the weather contributed to its perfection - it was very "autumnal" for the beginning of September which was a positive element because it provided a tormenting and very romantic light, which allowed Sergio to take advantage in an incredible way!"

"The view overlooking Lake Garda left everyone flabbergasted, while the decorations and flowers provided the refined touch that we were looking for. The ceremony created a very strong emotion, and everyone was moved! The elegant, yet relaxed atmosphere put everyone at ease. We continue to receive enthusiastic compliments long after our wedding, and the smile that we saw at the end of the day on our guests’ faces was the biggest gift we could ever receive!"
