How to Host a Luxury Wedding at Bella Collina: Real Wedding Inspiration

When you picture a luxury wedding in Florida, Bella Collina is the kind of place that instantly comes to mind. With it’s sweeping views, Tuscan-inspired architecture, and five-star service, it’s no surprise that this Montverde gem is one of the most sought-after wedding venues in the state.

If you’re a bride dreaming of an upscale wedding experience, let this blog be your guide. Inspired by a real event we helped bring to life in January,  here’s how to create a stunning celebration that reflects you. Your unique style should be fully embraced, bringing an elevated sense of elegance and emotion to your wedding.

Choose a Venue that Sets the Tone

Your venue is more than just a backdrop–it sets the tone for your entire wedding experience. Bella Collina delivers all of this from the moment guests arrive. The grand driveway, Tuscan-style architecture, and sweeping views of Montverde’s beautiful landscape. This venue fully immerses you and your guests in the luxury wedding you are dreaming of. 

For this event, we let the venue shine. Our event planner Pavone Events, designed elements that complimented, not competed, with the natural beauty and architecture.

Let the Design Tell a Story

Every great wedding design tells a story–and this one was no exception. From the arched chandelier installations to the perfectly curated signature cocktails, every detail was intentional. This wedding design reflected a modern, romantic aesthetic with a touch of European sophistication.

Our floral partners, Impekable Flowers, created lush arrangements with timeless neutrals and soft pastels. These florals added texture and movement to every event space. The team paired this with upscale rentals and layered textures from Echo Event Rentals and EventWorks. The result was a visual experience that felt immersive, refined, and luxurious.

Create a Multi-Sensory Experience

The word luxury isn’t just about what you see–it’s about what you feel. Weddings should never be cookie-cutter or taken at face value. You have the opportunity to create a multi-sensory experience for you and your guests from start to finish. 

At this Bella Collina event, guests were greeted with signature cocktails, entertained by a mime and living statues, and delighted by the scent of fresh florals at every turn. 

Live music from string artists set the tone for connection and conversation while a floral cart and interactive elements added charm and whimsy. The goal? To create an experience that guests would talk about long after the night ended.

Work With a Trusted Vendor Team

A dream wedding requires a dream team. For this event, we worked with top-tier vendors who know how to execute high-end events with precision and style. From photographers and beauty pros to rentals, musicians, and planners, each vendor brought their A-game—and it showed.

When planning your Bella Collina wedding, choose vendors who not only align with your vision but also understand the nuances of a luxury experience. The right team ensures everything runs smoothly and exceeds expectations.
