With nine months of planning, the couple and their vendors brought to life the wedding they had always imagined. They felt “100% happy,” sharing that they would choose the exact same team all over again and that they wouldn’t change a single thing if they could relive the day.
Inspiration & The Movie
The whole wedding was inspired by the couple’s vision: round tables set in front of the villa, a romantic ceremony on the bridge, and a soft white-pastel palette featuring white hydrangeas, ranunculus, David Austin garden roses, and Odile peonies. The result was a timeless atmosphere that felt airy, elegant, and beautifully intentional.
Jacqueline Alice Goutier created a film filled with emotion and unforgettable moments. She captured every detail — the touching and breathtaking ceremony, the sounds, the vows, and the stunning fireworks that closed the night. With her signature storytelling approach, the final video feels like a scene straight from a romantic movie.
Bride's Morning & Fashion
Nasim’s morning set the tone for the entire day filled with effortless elegance with a spark of personality. She moved through the morning glowing, smiling, dancing, full of energy and emotion. The kind of bride who brings the room to life without even trying.
Her fashion story followed the same vibe and began with a sculptural Vera Wang gown, followed by a sleek party dress from Rosie Etienne, and finished with extravagant Rene Caovilla heels. With modern, refined beauty by Mariia Dubenets, Nasim embodied a look that was happy, elegant, emotional, and unmistakably her.
Groom's Fashion
Milad’s look centered around a tailored suit made exclusively for him, paired with a ROLEX watch and the timeless scent of Acqua di Parma, creating a refined and confident style that perfectly matched the energy of the day.
Ceremony
The couple chose Villa Bettoni for its cinematic setting, with a ceremony held on the bridge overlooking Lake Garda. They wanted something personal and meaningful, a ceremony infused with Persian–Iranian traditions that reflected their story and cultural background. The aesthetic and the setting allowed them to create a moment that felt both modern and deeply rooted in heritage.
Guests felt every second of it. The atmosphere was emotional and immersive, and their friends and family, who share a uniquely strong bond with the couple, were enthusiastic throughout the entire celebration. The whole day was beautifully captured by the talented team at Klassen Weddings, preserving every heartfelt moment and every detail of the experience.
Cocktail Hour
Right before the reception, the couple and their guests enjoyed a relaxed cocktail hour with live music, savoring the food, the atmosphere, and the conversations that set the perfect tone for the evening ahead.
Reception Design
Planned by the team at Illumina Weddings, the reception took place outside the villa, where round tables adorned with soft florals created an unforgettable atmosphere. The setting felt open, elegant, and beautifully curated, a space where the natural charm of Villa Bettoni blended seamlessly with the couple’s refined vision.
Reception
As the lights went down and the soft evening glow illuminated the setting, dinner unfolded in the most cozy and beautiful way, filled with effortless Italian charm. The atmosphere felt intimate, warm, and deeply inviting.
The couple was welcomed with waving napkins, sparking laughter and joy around the tables. Between the ambiance of the villa and the live music carried through the night, the reception took on its own magic, shaped by emotion, connection, and the couple’s vision.
Into The Night
Just before the night fully set in, Nasim slipped into her second look — a chic mini dress that instantly captivated everyone around her. It added a fresh, playful twist to the celebration and set the perfect tone for the evening ahead.
One of the most significant moments of the evening was decorating the traditional Millefoglie cake with fresh berries. It was a fun and interactive experience for the newlyweds, adding a playful touch to their celebration.
The night came to a close with picturesque fireworks lighting up the Lake Garda skyline, creating a magical experience for the newlyweds and all their guests. And to finish the celebration in the best way, everyone gathered on the dance floor, enjoying the music and ending the night with joy and energy.
