John Legend returns to the lake

There are those who leave, but there are also those who return. At the end of the season, the arrivals and departures of celebrities at Lario are simply impressive.

After Pippa Middleton, actors, football players and tycoons who appear on the list of 2023 billionaires, John Legend and his wife Christine Teigen, are expected on the shores of the lake in the coming days.

The famous couple decided to celebrate their wedding anniversary in the same place where their wedding took place in 2013.

They are expected on Thursday 14 September in Passalacqua, where they hosted a welcome brunch for friends and family, who will then attend a big party planned for Friday 15 September at Villa Pizzo, where they said “I do”. For this occasion, the model chose three dresses published in the glossiest magazines on costumes and society columns: a white tulle strapless dress for the ceremony, an ivory dress for the reception and, finally, a red dress with a handmade bodice and skirt. with embroidered crystals for dancing All three from Vera Wang, an American designer of Chinese origin, best known for her wedding dresses.

The fabulous ceremony was attended by many guests from the star system. From Kanye West and Quincy Jones to Stevie Wonder and supermodel Brooklyn Deke, the bridesmaid. During the wedding celebrations, Legend performed the song All of Me, composed in honor of his new wife at his residence in Como.

In the video for the famous single, the panorama of Lake Como is the protagonist of a series of evocative black and white images: most of the scenes were actually filmed at a private residence in Fiumelatte; at the end there is a wedding scene at Villa Pizzo and the first kiss of husband and wife.

Since then, Lario has always held a special place in the hearts of the singer and model, who has publicly stated on several occasions: “We have had the opportunity to return there many times. Venice has a unique charm, Florence has the best food, but Lake Como will always be my favorite place.”

Thus, this connection has always remained strong and lasting, and after the sensational news of Clooney’s possible escape, it will help restore the image of this region, undoubtedly associated with global ambassadors.

An image that also influences economic activity since large events involve many local suppliers: caterers, floral designers, audio and lighting services, drivers and bodyguards.

From what little we have been able to gather so far, the list of local companies that Legend has consulted with is long, as they are very privacy conscious and therefore require the utmost confidentiality. However, based on the preparation, it is easy to predict that the scenography will be spectacular, even surpassing the wedding one.
