Michael Bublé and wife Luisana newlywed bliss on a romantic Venice gondola ride

By ANDREA MAGRATH

Honeymoon bliss: Michael Bublé kisses his wife Luisana Lopilato during a romantic sunset gondola ride in Venice


It is widely regarded as one of the most romantic cities in the world, and therefore a favourite destination among honeymooners.

Michael Bublé and his new wife Luisana Lopilato looked like the picture of newlywed bliss in Venice yesterday, where, like so many others, they have decided to spend their honeymoon.

The Canadian crooner and his Argentine wife lapped up the romance with an intimate gondola ride at sunset in the picturesque Italian city.


Romance: The newlywed couple looked relaxed and in love during the boat ride, a favourite activity for tourists


As they were ferried about in the water by a gondolier dressed in classic stripes and a straw hat, Michael cradled Luisana's head against his shoulder and kissed her forehead tenderly.

Luisana, 23, closed her eyes as she snuggled in against her 35-year-old husband as he stroked her hair.

The weather in Venice is in the mild low twenties Celsius, and the couple kept warm as the sun went down with a red blanket.

They looked like any other tourists as they took in the sights on the boat ride, a favourite with Venice visitors that costs between 40 and 100 euros.


Cosy: Michael and Luisana kept warm with a blanket as the sun went down


Their married life did not get off to the best of starts though. The day after their wedding the couple heard that their Buenos Aires home had been burgled.

It is thought that while the couple were enjoying their lavish party - which was highly publicised in the bride's home county - on the outskirts of the city, thieves were breaking into their house.

But Luisana defiantly said upon returning to their home to inspect the damage: ‘I will not let this ruin the happiest day of my life.’

The couple are planning a full ceremony with 300 guests next month at a mansion outside Buenos Aires, followed by another wedding in Vancouver in April.

They confirmed that they are having two weddings so both their families can attend.

'We are doing one in Argentina and that's for her close family, and then we are doing one in Vancouver,' Michael has said.

Michael also revealed that he will be giving his vocal cords a rest on the big day, as his fiancée has asked him not to sing at their wedding, instead preferring the musical stylings of Argentine-Venezuelan singer Ricardo Montaner.

In an interview with Ross King on Daybreak in December, Michael said: 'I asked my fiancée if she wanted me to sing and she said no.'

She said, "I want Ricardo Montaner". So now I’ve got Ricardo Montaner coming!'

'I’m a boy, I didn’t grow up thinking about my wedding day, so for me, I just want it to be good for her.

'Really, I just want her to feel like she’s had the perfect day.'

In a grand act of charity, the couple have chosen to opt out of a lavish honeymoon to instead head to Africa to undergo charity work for children's causes.

Lopilato, an actress who stars in the hit Argentine soap opera Atraccion x 4, met Michael after one of his concerts in Buenos Aires in November 2008.

A friend revealed: 'They met at a party the record company threw for him after his show in Buenos Aires.

'The head of the label wanted to introduce Michael to Argentina's most famous actress.

'When he met her, he said it was love at first sight.'

He then popped the question while on a trip to Argentina in November 2009.

Michael was previously engaged to long-term girlfriend, singer and actress Debbie Timuss, but the couple split up in November 2005.

He also dated The Devil Wears Prada actress Emily Blunt for more than two years, but the pair split in 2008
