From Germany to Italy: A Dream of Love at Villa Giona.
When Alena and Lorenz decided to say ‘I do,’ they chose the magical setting of Valpolicella to celebrate their wedding.
I met them as a planning assistant, and our connection was immediate and special, so much so that just a few months before the big day, they decided to entrust everything to me.
In record time, we transformed their vision into reality, creating a dream ceremony set in an enchanting landscape of cypress trees, olive groves, and vineyards.
Today, I want to take you with me into this intimate and cozy setting, where every detail tells the story of their love.

"Travel is very important to us, so one of the wishes for our wedding week was to have a once in a lifetime trip with our closest friends and family. With Ella’s help, we did exactly that. With her expertise and knowledge of the area, we were able to curate the perfect itinerary. We had private wine tours, buses to different cities, private walking tours, restaraunts, and more. We even had a private boat take us around Lake Garda and a private tour of the Isola del Garda castle. These experiences were perfectly chosen and gave us and our guests unique experiences that we will cherish forever. See attached for part of our itinerary, which Ella had beautifully made and set up in custom gift bags for when our guests arrived."
Lauren's words reveal a side of my work that few people know.
It’s not just about organizing weddings, but about creating experiences for the couple and their guests, transforming their stay in Italy into a collection of unforgettable moments.
Lauren and Ben wanted to spend a special week with their closest loved ones, and with a bit of work, I was able to make that happen. Thanks to my knowledge of the region, I crafted a tailored itinerary: private winery tours, city excursions, exclusive dinners, and a private cruise on Lake Garda with a visit to the castle on Isola del Garda.
Moments that brought the group closer together, creating an atmosphere that made the celebration even more unforgettable.
And you, have you ever imagined a wedding that isn’t just a celebration, but an experience to share with those you love?

Why settle for just one space when you have the opportunity to celebrate your wedding in such a magical place?
I love organizing dynamic weddings, and at locations like Villa della Torre, this becomes a reality!
Today, I'm taking you with me to show how we used the spaces for Ariana and Alex's wedding.

The wedding table of Ariana and Alex was a small masterpiece.
From the toile de jouy tablecloth to the napkins with delicate white and blue stripes, and even the checkered chair covers that echo the same tones, everything was selected to create a harmonious setting.
Creating this composition, which brought to life an elegant and timeless frame, was a great joy for me.
I firmly believe that magic lies in the details, even the smallest ones. My job is to ensure that every moment of this special day reflects the beauty and uniqueness you've envisioned.
And you, do you believe in the details?

"How can we create breathtaking scenographies, amaze our guests and evoke unforgettable emotions?"
This is one of the questions most couples ask me.
But my answer changes every time and it always comes after some time because every love story is different and deserves to be told for its uniqueness.
For Anna and Sol, I chose colorful smoke bombs. Both dedicate their lives to others, and especially for Anna, defending the rights of others and the weakest ones, it takes a large part of her life. Unity and sharing are the core values that underpin their present and future.
So what better than smoke with its fleeting nature to embody the essence of shared love? An invisible but powerful bond capable of overcoming any obstacle.
A ritual that created a spiritual connection among those who took part. Where each trail represents a fragment of each person’s story that intertwines with the others, sealing an eternal bond.
Would you like a scenography that reflects your personality?

"Come possiamo creare scenografie mozzafiato, stupire i nostri ospiti e suscitare emozioni indelebili?"
Questa è una delle domande che mi viene posta dalla maggior parte delle coppie.
E la mia risposta cambia, ogni volta e arriva dopo un pò di tempo perché ogni amore è diverso e merita di essere raccontato per la sua unicità.
Per Anna e Sol ho voluto dei coloratissimi fumogeni. Entrambi dedicano la loro vita al prossimo e, soprattutto per Anna, la difesa dei diritti del prossimo e di chi è più debole occupa gran parte della sua vita. L’unione con le persone e la condivisione sono per loro valori sui quali basare il loro presente e futuro.
E allora cosa c'è di meglio del fumo con la sua natura evanescente, per incarnare l'essenza dell'amore condiviso? Un legame invisibile, capace di superare qualsiasi ostacolo.
Un rito che ha creato una connessione tra le persone che ne hanno preso parte. Dove ogni scia rappresenta il frammento della stor

This is the most important aspect of my work as a wedding planner.
It's not just about organizing an event, but about capturing and valuing the feelings and connections that couples entrust to me.
Listening means entering their stories, dreams, and emotions to create a wedding that reflects their essence. It's a journey we undertake together, where I ask, evaluate, and, most importantly, empathize.
I feel like the older sister, a friend who offers a neutral perspective and sincere support. I don't consider myself an expert but an eternal learner, always curious and ready to discover the beauty of love. Listening is what makes my work unique and deeply meaningful.
The reason why I love it so much!

È questo l'aspetto più importante del mio lavoro da wedding planner.
Non si tratta solo di organizzare un evento, ma di cogliere e valorizzare i sentimenti e i legami che le coppie mi affidano.
Ascoltare significa entrare nelle loro storie, nei loro sogni e nelle loro emozioni per creare un matrimonio che rispecchi la loro essenza. È un viaggio che percorriamo insieme, in cui mi immedesimo, chiedo, valuto e, soprattutto, empatizzo.
Mi sento come una sorella maggiore, una confidente, un'amica che offre un punto di vista neutrale e un supporto sincero. Non mi considero un'esperta, ma un'eterna apprendista, sempre curiosa e pronta a scoprire la bellezza dell'amore. L'ascolto è ciò che rende il mio lavoro unico e profondamente significativo.
La ragione per cui tanto lo amo!
