Behind the Brand

What was the initial spark for your brand, how did it all begin?

I embarked on this wonderful adventure 16 years ago after a fulfilling corporate experience in luxury goods and fashion, where I held roles in marketing and sales. My commitment to my responsibilities was marked by a deep passion, often leading me to go above and beyond, treating the companies I worked for as if they were my own.

Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, the desire to create something of my own was always burning within me. The transition to the world of events seemed like a natural progression, and weddings, with their enchanting allure, quickly became a central focus of my business. The catalyst for my entry into the world of wedding planning was a corporate event I organized for the CEO of one of the companies I worked for. This connection led to planning his daughter’s wedding, marking the beginning of a beautiful journey in the wedding industry.

Reflecting on my first wedding planning experience, it was a truly magical event. The attention to detail, the joy on the faces of the couple and their families, and the seamless execution of every element reinforced my passion for creating unforgettable moments. From that point onward, weddings became more than just events; they became a core aspect of my business, and I couldn’t be happier about it.

The inspiration to become a wedding planner stems from my deep appreciation for the magic that surrounds weddings. The opportunity to play a pivotal role in crafting moments that couples will cherish for a lifetime is immensely fulfilling. With a background rooted in dedication, passion, and a strong sense of responsibility, I am honored to continue creating and curating extraordinary experiences for those embarking on the beautiful journey of marriage.

How would you describe your aesthetic?

Timeless, soft elegant and authentic

As a planner or stylist, what are you inspired by at the moment in the world of weddings?

I find inspiration primarily in our couples’ love stories and who they are as individuals. Their unique journeys and personal tastes guide our creative process and shape the overall vision for their special day. Additionally, we draw inspiration from various sources, including other industries such as interior design and architecture, textures in fashion, and the art of traveling the world. Exploring diverse cultures, landscapes, and architectural marvels broadens our perspective and infuses our work with fresh ideas. Moreover, the venues where we work play a significant role in inspiring our designs, as each location offers its own distinct charm and character that we aim to highlight and celebrate.

What would you like to see less of?

Lemons (planning most of our weddings in Italy we are always required to use lemons!!), olive branches, limoncello bottles as gifting, champagne towers.

A styling/planning tip or two you’ve learned along the way that you’d give to any couple?

The budget for a wedding is a reflection of both the actual costs involved and couples expectations. It’s essential to understand the true costs of various elements before setting expectations. By gathering data on the costs of different aspects of the wedding, you can build a budget that is realistic and not solely based on couples desired expectations. Avoid the common pitfall of assuming that everything will cost what you want it to cost. Instead, approach budgeting with a clear understanding of the market rates and prioritize accordingly to ensure your financial plan aligns with your vision for the big day.

For a savvy wedding styling tip, consider focusing your budget and efforts on creating impactful focal statement pieces rather than attempting to lavish every corner with decor. Identify key areas where guests’ attention will be most focused, such as the ceremony altar, sweetheart table, dancefloor or entrance, and allocate resources to elevate these spaces with stunning focal points. By strategically investing in these standout elements, you can make a lasting impression without overspending on every single detail. This approach not only maximizes the impact of your decor but also ensures that your budget is allocated wisely, creating a visually striking and memorable atmosphere for your special day.

Last but not least a wedding is one of the most significant events in every couple’s life and my best sincere advice is to do whatever feels right for yourselves!
