PLANNING YOUR DESTINATION WEDDING
THE STEPS FOR PLANNING A WEDDING ABROAD WITH US

IT’S EASY TO GET MARRIED IN ITALY

When planning a wedding in Tuscany or Italy, you will be guided by your destination wedding planner through this amazing journey. Our exclusive wedding planning services are structured into six clear steps to ensure a stress-free experience.

Your dedicated Italian wedding planner will take you to each one of those steps at the right time. Following our lead you won’t have to worry about anything. You will be able to make informed decisions and enjoy a seamless transition to your big day without any stress or worries.


STEP 1 - FIRST MEETING

We understand that finding the right destination wedding planner is not easy. Based on our experience a first meeting with us will clear your doubts and will also help us to understand your needs.

During the call, we will be discussing your ideas, needs, and related costs of the event. You will be offered a full picture of our wedding planning services, including our wedding design service.


STEP 2 - BUDGETING YOUR DESTINATION WEDDING

We respect your budget and choices and work closely with you to make sure you’ll be happy to spend your money in the best possible way. Our starting point is working high-end, which implies we use only the best wedding service providers to deliver a perfect wedding and a fantastic experience for you and your guests.

We will help you to create a realistic budget for your wedding after taking into consideration your ideas, preferred venue/s, and your stylistic choices.


STEP 3 - WEDDING VENUE AND WEDDING SERVICE PROVIDERS

Finding the right wedding venue is the first important decision every couple must make (after choosing your wedding planner, of course!).

Thanks to our extended database of exclusive wedding venues, we are sure we will be able to find the perfect place for your wedding in Tuscany. After the venue has been booked, we will start selecting the best service providers to cover all the aspects of the wedding: graphic designer, photographer, videographer, florist, light and music technicians, musicians, makeup artists, etc.

Our goal is excellence. You can be assured that all the wedding service providers we offer to your attention have been carefully selected thanks to years of experience.


STEP 4 - DESIGN AND PROJECT OF YOUR WEDDING

What’s more important than the vibe you want for your wedding?

To ensure that your intention is clear from the very beginning, we will work closely with you to define the color palette and the mood of the wedding. We will make stylistic choices, select the right furniture, and create the perfect decoration through the floral design. A 3D floor plan will make it easy for you to visualize what the reception will look like. A digital illustration (rendering) will leave no doubts of how everything will come together.


STEP 5 - LOGISTICS OF A DESTINATION WEDDING

Logistics is as important as the artistic side of a wedding.

Thanks to our experience, connections, and deep knowledge of the territory, we will provide you and your guests with the organization, comfort, and precision expected for a smooth and wonderful wedding experience in Italy.

All vendors involved in the wedding will receive a precise timeline where they’ll find exactly where and when things happen and what they will have to do.


STEP 6 - COORDINATION

…and on the wedding day, of course, the whole team will be on the ground making sure all details carefully prepared during the planning will find their place.

We will share with you this moment of joy and happiness and we will keep with us the memory of your wedding as much as your guests will do!
