Wedding By Joy is Oriana Curti, a Paris-trained freelance make-up artist and hairstylist based on Lake Como, with more than 20 years of experience in beauty and fashion.

As part of the Pat McGrath make-up team, Oriana works on international fashion shows and has collaborated with Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, Prada and Max Mara, but what she loves most is working with brides.

Her philosophy, “You, but Elevated”, is about enhancing what’s already there with a refined, modern touch inspired by fashion, so brides feel like themselves at their most beautiful, confident and at ease.

From the very first conversation, brides speak directly with Oriana, who takes the time to understand who they are, what they love and how they want to feel. She speaks English, French and Italian.

We love Oriana for brides who want fashion-show expertise alongside a calm, supportive experience, created around them from the beginning to the very last touch.

Good to know: Wedding By Joy works on location across Lake Como, northern Italy and the Italian lakes, with packages for elopements, intimate weddings, photoshoots and larger celebrations, plus a trusted team for guests.
