The ladies love the regent


and why not.

You're a bad man for posting that.

It's also the first time I've been grateful that the forum YouTube embedding plugin doesn't work.

I first encountered the Boneschi IM3 at the start of 2005. It was in some wedding pictures in Italy and it was only much later I got more info.

It was used for the wedding of two American scooter enthusiasts, Melissa (Missi) Walker and Christopher (Jon) Kroge, in 2003 during their trip to Italy which coincided with the Euro Lambretta Jamboree 2003 in Perugio/Assisi.

Vittorio Tessera of the Italian Lambretta Club and Lambretta Museum arranged the use of the car.

Missi on the wedding:

You and Jon got married in Italy at a scooter rally, right?

We had both been into scooters for a while, and we were planning a trip to Euro Lambretta in Italy in 2003. A friend who is originally from Italy and was going to be traveling with us said, "Hey! Why don't you just get married while you're in Italy?" It's a ton of paperwork to make it legit over there, but luckily, we had some people helping us out. There's nothing like getting married at a scooter rally with all of these people. [Laughs.]

We were in Assisi, and Vittorio (Tessera) -- who runs Casa Lambretta, a company that makes reproductions of Lambretta parts -- pulled out an old car that was previously used to tour the Lambretta factory. The last person who rode in it was Prince Philip, so it had, like, the British flag all over it, and a clear plastic roof. I drove up in that, and my husband drove up on the scooter -- which we now own. We got married there, in the middle of town, and the press showed up. It was weird.

We then caught up with the scooter rally, so it was like having a really big wedding reception with a bunch of people from all over Europe who didn't speak English. [Laughs.]
