Hi! I’m Ilenia
Hi! I’m Ilenia, a Destination Wedding Planner based in Florence. Before starting as a Wedding & Event Planner, I spent seven years of professional shadowing getting closer and closer to the world of private events and weddings.
The passion for the events industry grew in me gradually and my business started as a parallel project to the path in the legal field. Eventually this path full of challenges, variety and human contact ends up prevailing to become my profession.

What factors can help form an overall picture of the professionalism and creativity of a wedding planner?
The assessment of a wedding planner’s professionalism and creativity can be based on several factors, including:
1. Experience and Training: A wedding planner with years of experience and specific training in the event industry is often more professional and creative.
2. Portfolio: The quality and variety of previous work, shown in a portfolio, can give an idea of the wedding planner’s style and creativity.
3. Reviews and Testimonials: Reviews from previous clients on platforms such as Google, Facebook or specialised wedding sites provide insight into the reliability and skill of a wedding planner.
4. Services Offered: The range of services a wedding planner is able to offer, such as detailed planning, budget management and the ability to create unique themes, is an indicator of their creativity.
5. Network of Contacts: The quality of the suppliers they work with, such as florists, photographers and locations, can demonstrate their level of professionalism and ability to organise tailor-made events.
6. Problem Solving Ability: The ability to deal with unforeseen events during the planning and execution of the event is a key indicator of professionalism.

Frequently asked questions
What is the biggest challenge for people planning weddings on their own?
The biggest challenge is definitely the language for destination weddings, hence the difficulty in communicating. Finding and proposing a suitable venue for the bride and groom is another crucial point and finally the ability to have an overview of the whole event for those outside the industry. Every supplier will try to sell their service (including the venue) but only the Wedding Planner can have an impartial and competent view at the same time.
Which month is best for getting married in Italy?
It is difficult to make such predictions because the weather is subject to various fluctuations. However, the most popular months for weddings still remain May, June, September and October. August is considered too hot. On the other hand, winter weddings have a special charm.
What are the costs that are often overlooked when organising a wedding but should be taken into consideration?
One thing to consider when planning your wedding budget is that suppliers often quote the price of their services without VAT. However, VAT affects the final price and is a cost for the bride and groom and can be of different types, usually 10 or 22%. Therefore you have to be very careful and consider it, otherwise in the end the overall cost of the wedding will be increased.
It’s Going to be Perfect!
