Our wedding day was unforgettable. Each moment more magical than the next, you and your team made sure that everything went smoothly from A-Z. When working with you, I knew I was in experienced and skilled hands, but I still felt like I was speaking to family, who cared about us and our wedding day as much as we do. It was the absolute perfect balance and we could not have asked for more.
From the strong vendor recommendations, to the day-of coordination, the organized ongoing communication, the execution of absolutely everything… every part of this experience was wonderful yet professional. Even during the occasional (and unavoidable hiccup), you are calm and collected, and ready to resolve it. Rossana, you are a LIFE SAVER!!!!
Thank you so very much to this team for all the hard work, time and effort you have put in to make this a true success. We are a happy couple and we will always recommend you!!!
We have been back in Dubai for just over a week now and unfortunately we have come back to reality.
We would both like to thank the two of you for the wedding. It was a hell of a weekend. Neither of us could have imagined it all coming together the way it did even though we, and especially Nadine, was involved in the organisation of it all with the two of you. The welcome drinks at il barrino and the pool party the day after worked out great and the venue on the wedding day looked amazing from beginning to end. You were definitely correct with the dancing by the pool. It was more than we could have imagined and we would like to thank the both of you for all your help and guidance.
I am sure you will both be busy for the rest of the summer with many other weddings so we wish you the best of luck until the end of the season, and hopefully a welcomed break when winter arrives.
Stay safe and stay in touch,
So many our guests, friends and family have said it was the best wedding they have ever been to, and we all want to do it again.
Such a pleasure to deal with all of you over the last year, but Rossana a very extra special thanks goes to you. You are an exceptional planner and truly fantastic person! Thank you for all your hard work and always going the extra mile.
We really hope to see you all again when we visit Italy again, it would be great fun to catch up!
Gratzi Mille
Until next time…!
First, as we were living far away from Italy (Dubai, then the US), we quickly realized that hiring a local wedding planner was crucial to help us realize our dream wedding. Doing our due diligence (as management consultants always do), we found Rossana to be the most responsive and enthusiastic about our project from the beginning. Even before any contract was signed, after only a couple of Skype calls, we had our 1-day itinerary ready to visit 7 venues around Florence!
One could have expected this level of energy and dedication to lower down once the contract was signed, but this was not the case. She seemed very professional and objective-driven, which was a perfect match for us, as we are both used to manage projects in our job. Given my wife’s personality, she was very hands-on when organizing the wedding and I can foresee how this could have been an issue with other wedding planners (who may be used to have more autonomy in choosing vendors, for example) but it worked very well with Rossana and her team.
Thanks again for your patience in responding to the over 2 thousand emails we exchanged (+ countless whatsapps)!
Also, all along the organization phase, Rossana and her team were responsive to our queries, keeping the momentum high, in spite of the long duration of the planning.
They were also going the extra-mile, doing many things not written in the formal contract, as for example contacting the local churches or organizing a family dinner the day before the wedding. Supporting us with the churches was really helpful to keep the stress level low (as much as possible) in spite of the opacity of the process with local religious authorities.
Finally, on D-day, Rossana and her team were extremely helpful both for us (as we didn’t have to worry about anything and could fully enjoy the day, and even have a little time for some food during the cocktail, which apparently is unusual for newly-wed couples!) and for the guests (many of them gave us great feedback on Rossana’s team presence on the ground, especially as she is fluent in French and English, so she could sort out questions for all nationalities attending our wedding!). More impressive is that, in spite of keeping everything well under-control, including schedule-wise, their presence was very discrete, which was super appreciated too. We believe this balance between control and discreteness is pretty hard to find, so really well done!
In a nutshell, we would strongly and warmly recommend Rossana and her team if you are looking to organize the perfect wedding in Italy. In addition of being a great professional in her field, she is also a super nice person to work with, and we could feel she was doing anything possible (in and out of contract) to make this day the best of our life.
Thanks for everything!! Grazie mille!!
We would do it all over again tomorrow!!
Me and Tim would love to renew our vows in 10 years time and hope you will plan it again!
Thank you again for everything, if your ever in London you always have a place to stay. Lots of love.
You guys gave us the most incredible and perfect wedding that we ever could have hoped for.
Every single person loved the day and it was the most amazing experience of our lives. Thank you so much for all of your help, your friendship and your guidance over the last 18 months. We loved every moment and wish we could do it all again.
We’ll send you some of the photos when we receive them and please do stay in touch.
Lots of love,
Since we live in the United States, we relied on her expertise, recommendations of style and vendors, and other helpful suggestions. We were initially drawn to picking Rossana’s team because she connected with us on a personal level, had great energy and eye for detail, and her experience of wedding planning.
The wedding day couldn’t have gone better thanks to Rossana and her team. Everything was planned perfectly, and exceeded our expectations! We are their biggest advocates!
We can’t wait to come back to Italy; we’ll stay in touch!
