Marcos and Evelina an easy-going couple from Sweden eloped in Rome!

Wedding Marcos and Evelina

Marcos contacted us to arrange a symbolic wedding this spring. Marcos with his sweet wife Evelina, lovely daughter and closest family travelled to Rome to celebrate their wedding.

They selected a beautiful roof top terrace with view of the Roman Forums. It was a typical spring sunny day. Our Swedish officiator accompanied by our guitarist brought tears in everybody’s eyes. Marcos and Evelina asked our guitarist to play “Con te partiro’” by Andrea Boccelli. It was so romantic… a toast followed the ceremony and then off we went to take pictures in Rome.

Evelina styled her hair herself, she looked beautiful. I wish I could style my own hair like that!

Marcos and Evelina chose a restaurant on the Appian Way for their reception. They wanted something different outside the beaten path and what a good choice it was! The old Appian Way was once one of the world’s most important roads and the most famous of all the roads that radiated from Rome towards the far ends of the Roman Empire. Old cypresses, views of the ancient aqueducts and roman ruins adorn the street.

The restaurant located on the Appia Antica in Rome had lovely outdoor and indoor space. The refined menu included a rich antipasto buffet followed by two main dishes, a second course, fruit salad, little tarts and wine.

Marcos and Evelina thanked their guests with typical bomboniere/favors – boxed almond confetti decorated with pretty ribbons that matched the table setting. A nice final touch!

Congratulations to Marcos and Evelina!
