The importance of choosing the right crew for your getting ready //⁠

Let’s be honest, no one has a totally simple and straight forward family and friends life. We can probably all think of that one slightly difficult family member or problematic friend. HOWEVER, it is imperative that on your wedding day you choose your bridal party wisely and leave dramas at the door! Just a gentle reminder that this is YOUR day, YOUR rules and your wellness should be at TOP PRIORITY. So, some simple rules to follow to make sure you can enjoy the day with the right people at your side: ⁠

Less is more! Having few but good friends is better than a room full of people that are just going to make you stressed. ⁠

Close friends only: Your mum wants to bring her friend round? No thanks. This is your time to be with the people that are closest to you.⁠

Leave drama out the door: try and choose people who are going to make you calmer, not more stressed! If there are any feuds between guests, try and separate, and if this is not possible, talk to them before and make sure they understand that the day is not about them. ⁠

When you have come to a decision regarding who is going to be at your side before the madness starts, it’s always good to set a tone: brief your friends / family on how you’d like the morning to go. Do you tend to get nervous? Make sure they know this is a relaxing and calm affair. ⁠

Last and most important: do not try and please everyone! This is a golden rule of weddings in general and one that is hard to follow. Although sometimes it can feel as you need to entertain and please people, try to remember that your friends are there FOR YOU, so just go with whatever makes you happy! ⁠

I’m engaged...NOW WHAT? ⁠

After all the excitement, you finally sit down and start browsing weddings in Italy, start to look at venues, suppliers, areas and all the tips and advice you can find online, just to realize this is a MUCH BIGGER field than you were expecting! The endless amount of information gets overwhelming pretty soon. ⁠
This is something we get told by couples during first consultation pretty much all the time. ⁠
WHERE DO I START??⁠

We find a very deep breath is always a good place to start! Then, start simple. Don’t focus on the details before you set the basics. The details will follow naturally. ⁠
Now, there are a few simple steps that need to be taken care of before you start browsing. And these are: ⁠

✔️Set a budget and allocate who is paying for what. Yes, this is crucial information to start planning your wedding. A budget is what turns your ideas into a tangible reality. ⁠

✔️Write down a guest list. This doesn’t have to be precise but without a fairly good idea of numbers it will be impossible to budget for a wedding, or to find the right venue. ⁠

✔️Think about the type of wedding you want: is it in the countryside / city / sea side? This will help narrowing down one or two areas to focus on. Do I want a one day affair or a multiple night stay? ⁠

✔️Set a date or date range: think about weather, how hot is it going to be during that time? When does the sun set? Do you want to keep the wedding outside? Do I need it to be on a weekend? ⁠

After these are set, you’ll have a solid starting point to try and focus on finding the right area for you, a suitable venue, and so on. ⁠

Is this helpful? If so, you’ll find our first consultations even more so. We like to make sure you get your time worth with super helpful information on how to budget, what areas of Italy might be better for you, and much more! ⁠

Drop us an email and schedule yours in, totally free of charge :) ⁠

What does a wedding planner actually DO? We read some articles online talking about ‘crafting exquisite floral arrangements’, or ‘coordinating every little detail’, and we can’t help but thinking how much the job of a planner is still very much unknown, and how much it differs from the universal image of Jennifer Lopez in a suit, heels and a headset (we are mostly in trainers and pretty sweaty too!). ⁠
Jokes aside, our job is so much more than arranging pretty flowers on a table: we are your ANCHOR, and the best investment for your wedding. Here’s only a few examples of what you’ll get working with us:⁠

🎁Years of experience in the field and invaluable knowledge ⁠
🎁A completely bilingual team who can communicate effectively with you and all of your suppliers ⁠
🎁Quick thinking and problem solving when inevitably something goes wrong⁠
🎁Someone for whom you are always their TOP priority⁠
🎁Someone who can transform your blurry ideas into a physical reality ⁠
🎁Someone who you can trust with your doubts, worries and anxiety and who will be 100% honest and unbiased when giving you advice. ⁠

Our bookings are open for 2025 but availability is going fast for venues and suppliers. If you are thinking of a 2025 wedding THIS is the time to book! ⁠ contact us for a totally free first consultation 🥂

We totally adore getting pictures from our weddings, but seriously, these film pics from Hope & Joe’s wedding in Ravello are absolutely amazing! Huge thanks to for capturing the day so intimately, and of course to one of the most stunning brides we’ve ever laid eyes on (even if she doesn’t think so!) and the most relaxed and lovely groom. We’re absolutely smitten! Congrats!⁠ 🥂

OUR VALUES // ⁠

I have been having a good dig into the deepest routes of our company lately. Big changes are coming our way, and it's all really exciting but changes also force you to change perspective and turn the lens towards ourselves.
What makes us who we are, and what makes us different from everyone else? ⁠
We believe that our strength lies in ourselves! We give the upmost importance to these 3 values:
✨Truth
✨Initiative
✨Effective communication
These 3 pillars are the fundamentals of our work ethic, and we believe that they are essential to successful event management and client relationships. ⁠
here is no luxury without a heart. And we believe that fully.

Want to know more? Send us an email and let's get this started!⁠

Dream big. ⁠

My Journey

It all began for me, as it does for so many wedding planners, when I organised my own big day. It was so important for me get married in Italy, not only because it is the country of my birth but also because I imagined that there could be nothing better than a celebration of our special day with family and friends set within the romance of the Italian countryside. Wonderful food and plentiful local wines come as standard, the sun is (almost!) guaranteed and superb service from local staff is part of the Italian culture and makes for a wonderful, calm day.

Our budget was pretty tight, and with a practical hat on, weddings in Italy are significantly cheaper than in the UK without compromising on any of the ingredients that make the day special.

I’ve always had the drive to organise, I plan holidays to the last detail, and am always the person who is asked to plan a get together or organise an event. I have worked in hospitality for many years, and have an ingrained passion for food and wine, especially that of my own country! After navigating several jobs in restaurant management and corporate hospitality, I eventually arrived at a beautiful hotel in the English countryside where I discovered my true passion as a wedding and event planner. From there I have decided to embark on this solo adventure, and I am extremely excited to share it with all of you!

My goal is to give you and your guests the very best of Italy: farms growing entirely organic produce, vineyards producing wine from century old vines and family run Agriturismi who exclusively use pure, unprocessed native products which then goes to support small Italian businesses.
