If you’ve ever caught yourself daydreaming about running through wildflower fields in Switzerland trust me, you’re not alone. Villa Honegg is that dream in real life. When I met up with Kate and Nick for their engagement session at their wedding venue, it didn’t just feel like we were taking photos, it felt like we were stepping into their next chapter. And honestly? It was magic. If you’re thinking about planning your own Villa Honegg engagement (or even your wedding here!), keep reading because I’m about to tell you everything that made this session unforgettable, and a few tips you’ll definitely want to know!

Why Villa Honegg Is a Dream Location for Your Switzerland Engagement

Sitting high above Lake Lucerne, Villa Honegg feels like the kind of place that knows how to leave you breathless. Snow-dusted peaks on the horizon. Endless green meadows stretching into blue sky. A cozy boutique hotel that somehow feels luxurious and wildly personal all at once. Kate and Nick picked Villa Honegg for their wedding day, and doing their engagement session here gave them the chance to slow down and soak it all in before the big celebration. They explored the rolling hills hand-in-hand, lounged on the terrace like literal movie stars (cue the sunglasses and champagne), and laughed their way through the meadows like nobody else existed. Villa Honegg just has that kind of energy. It’s intimate, cinematic, and completely unforgettable.

Tips for Planning the Perfect Villa Honegg Engagement

While this place is basically foolproof (seriously, you could point your camera anywhere and it would be gorgeous), here’s a little real-world advice to make your session even better:

1. Plan Around Light: Golden hour here is chef’s kiss. Whether you’re a sunrise kind of person or a sunset lover, those hours where the light is soft and glowy will take your photos to the next level. (Plus, fewer crowds = more space to twirl around like you’re in a rom-com.)

2. Keep Your Outfits Simple but Elevated: Kate’s lace mini dress and Nick’s cream suit were perfect. Something playful, elegant, and a little bit fun will match the vibe of the space without trying too hard. You want to feel like yourself, just a little extra sparkly!

3. Wander Everywhere: Don’t just stay on the main terrace! Some of the dreamiest moments happened when we wandered into the wildflower fields, snuck into the mirrored elevator, and found little hidden stairwells. The whole property feels like a secret garden.

4. Make It a Full Experience: If you can, stay a night or two at Villa Honegg. Wake up with the mountains out your window, sip coffee on the terrace, swim in that iconic infinity pool. Turn your engagement session into a mini celebration!

Kate & Nick: A Little Love Story in the Swiss Alps

There was something about Kate and Nick that just clicked. The way he looked at her like she was the only person on earth. The way she would burst into laughter at the smallest joke. Their whole vibe was easy, joyful, and just so them. We ran through fields of yellow blooms, danced on the stone steps, stole kisses in mirrored elevators, and ended the session overlooking Lake Lucerne, that classic “how is this even real?” moment you always hope for. It wasn’t just a photo session. It felt like a sneak peek into a lifetime of adventures they’re about to take together!
