Destination Wedding Planner in Italy
Planning That Feels Like Slipping Into Something That Finally Fits
Planning an authentic destination wedding in Italy should feel like the moment you land. Warm air, slower pace, espresso in hand, and suddenly your worries melt away.
With over a decade of experience and a network that opens doors (and palazzo gates), I’ll lead your Italian celebration with heart, precision and expert strategy. Expect a destination planner who instinctively knows when to lead, when to listen, and when to top up your glass.
This isn’t just planning. It’s what you never knew you needed.
“Their time and effort to ensure that our day was perfectly smooth running, everything looked beautiful, the guests were happy and having fun, the food, beverage and service were impeccable and, that we were completely looked after in every aspect, was unmatched.”

The kind of support where everything, from the venue to the final detail, feels like it was handled before you even asked.

vision, grounded in your story.

World-Class Wedding Planning Across Italy
Italy is the dream. You’ve said yes to it.
Now let me take it from here. I’ll lead you through the details with care, clarity, and an intuition that only comes from years of doing this well.
When it comes to getting married in Italy, there’s a little more to it than choosing a view. There’s paperwork. Protocol. Processes most people don’t even know exist. I do however, and very well.
Whether you’re opting for a civil ceremony (legally recognised in your home country) or a symbolic one with more creative freedom. I’ll take care of it all. The translations. The town hall appointments. The documents you’ve never heard of, but absolutely need.
You’ll have someone who knows the system, speaks the language, and gets it right. The first time.
How It Works — For People Who Expect a Lot and Deserve Even More)
Step 1 – We Talk. You Exhale.
Not a pitch. Not a presentation. Just a conversation about your vision, your people, what you want this to feel like, and what you never want to worry about. Within minutes, you’ll know you’ve found your person. And I’ll already be three steps ahead.
Step 2 – I Curate, Coordinate, and Quietly Handle It All
From top-tier venues to the right florist. It won’t just be the ones with the most followers on Instagram, it will be the right one for you. I bring Italy’s finest to your feet. I’ll know your guests’ names, who needs a pre-ceremony pep talk, and who’s likely to run late.
You’ll have WhatsApp groups for the bridal party, a calm voice in the chaos. Every day will feel like the main event, with everyone in place, no questions asked.
Step 3 – You Show Up. I’ve Already Thought of Everything.
By the time your guests arrive, the stage is set. The energy’s right. Every detail has been designed, delivered, and fine-tuned to perfection. All you need to do is turn up, be adored, and wonder how on earth this feels so effortless.
Because that’s what I do.
Why Me
I’ve worked with clients whose standards are sky-high and whose celebrations stretch across coastlines and time zones. Three days, three locations, one effortless experience. I’ve translated legal documents, soothed last-minute surprises, and kept the beauty uninterrupted.
What I bring isn’t just knowledge. It’s emotional intelligence, honest advice, and a deep commitment to making sure you feel completely taken care of. Not just on the day, but every day leading up to it.
I’m selective about who I work with because this is personal for me, too. If we’re a fit, you’ll have me in your corner from start to finish; steady, kind, detail-obsessed, and totally invested in your joy.
“Our guests fell in love with Cheryl and how clear she made it her job was to look after what the bride and grooms intentions were for the day. We can both truly say we had the best day of ourlives and the most fun a couple should have on their wedding day!“
