Laura Mesi is a girl from Brianza who has decided to celebrate her wedding with herself by promising eternal love. A demonstration act? A courageous gesture to make yourself known? The fact is that the characteristic elements of a marriage were all there. White dress studded with brilliant Svarosvski, tulle veil, Mendelssohn's wedding march, bridesmaids, bouquet of fragrant flowers, party at the restaurant and even the honeymoon in Mars Alam.
to Laura Messi it was a wedding in all respects but without a fundamental element: the groom
A fairytale wedding even if it has no civil or religious value
Laura had promised to get married by the age of 40. And so at the turn of the fourth decade of age she organized a real wedding with months of preparation. A ceremony worth about 10.000 euros, 70 guests including relatives and friends, white dress, throwing the bouquet and finally the wedding ring. A double ring that testifies to the promise made to itself.
The fairytale wedding was celebrated in a farmhouse in Vimercate. The bridegroom was missing. But only because Laura Mesi, from Lissone, is the first single bride in Italy. After a long love affair lasting 12 years and thrown behind her with so much suffering and disappointment, the XNUMX-year-old has made this courageous decision. Getting married to herself. A step that does not arise from a renunciation at all and does not have in itself any feeling of revenge. After the disappointment she realized that she is comfortable with herself and that this is the dimension of her happiness and her fulfillment.
The courage to marry herself was an achievement of maturity
Laura's wedding, celebrated by a friend, has no legal or religious value. But for the girl it was not a step taken lightly.
At forty, she felt strong enough to really be herself. And she did not want to accept that nothing and no one could tell her how she should live and what she should do with her life.
According to Laura, you can live a fairy tale even without the charming prince.
Laura is the first single bride in Italy. But not the only one to make this gesture. Nello Ruggiero was the first husband who last May had pronounced the first fateful "Yes" to himself in Naples.
Will they both launch a fashion? Maybe..
