Our dream wedding between Zurich and Zug
From the first meeting to the dream day: our wedding at the Löwen
From the moment we walked into the Löwen, we knew: This is the place where we want to celebrate the most beautiful day of our lives. The first encounter with the team was warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere of the venerable building exuded a charm that we couldn't resist. It was a sunny Saturday when we arrived at the Löwen with happy hearts and full of anticipation for our wedding.The wedding ceremony in the wine cellar
Our decision to hold our free wedding ceremony in the romantic wine cellar of the Löwen turned out to be the perfect choice. The old vaulted ceiling with its warm lighting and rustic stone walls created an intimate and romantic atmosphere that made the love in the air tangible. Surrounded by the loving gaze of our closest 60 family members and friends, every syllable of our vows became an unforgettable moment. A small live music band set the mood with soft melodies that made our hearts soar.The aperitif in the beer garden
After the emotional ceremony, everyone made their way to the picturesque Löwen beer garden in a cheerful mood. There we met the rest of our guests and were greeted by a sea of congratulations and beaming faces. We enjoyed the aperitif under the shady greenery of the trees while the champagne flowed and the house delicacies tantalized our palates. With 140 guests, we celebrated as if the sky had pushed the clouds aside just for us.The party in the ballroom
The highlight of the day was undoubtedly the exuberant party in the Löwen's impressive ballroom. The majestic atmosphere of the hall and the tasteful decorations left no doubt that this was a very special moment. Both young and older guests were invited, and the music ensured that everyone got their money's worth. The DJ had a good hand and it wasn't long before the dance floor was full. The room decorations were perfectly coordinated down to the last detail: from the place cards to the flower arrangements. The buffet, which offered a variety of exquisite dishes, was another highlight; everyone found something to their taste.Unforgettable memories
Our wedding at the Löwen was a celebration that we and our guests will never forget. A big thank you to the whole team who made our dream day possible. Everything was perfect. The Löwen not only met our expectations, but far exceeded them. Every moment was a treasure that we will carry in our hearts forever. From the intimate ceremony in the wine cellar to the exuberant celebration in the ballroom - our wedding at the Löwen was truly a day full of love, happiness and unforgettable moments.More blogs
