The official kick-off to Maria and Raphael’s incredible Venetian weekend came to life on the spectacular terrace of the St. Regis Hotel, suspended over the Grand Canal and overlooking one of the most iconic views in the world. Conceived as a highly glamorous and international Welcome Party, the event was designed to instantly immerse their guests arriving from Spain into the authentic magic of the city.
The welcome experience reached its emotional peak through an extraordinary logistical detail: all the guests reached the party aboard traditional gondolas, docking directly at the hotel’s private pier amid general awe and excitement. On the terrace, the atmosphere lit up with contemporary reflections, music, and sunset toasts, defining from the very first hours the seamless, refined, and vibrant style of the entire celebration. Not just a simple welcome cocktail, but a spectacular, high-glamour prelude to an unforgettable weekend.
