About Me

Hi! I’m ILENIA

destination Wedding Planner

This is my greatest passion, what I love to do: create unforgettable emotions and weddings that tell a story: yours.

ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE MYSELF…
I am your guide
in the landscape of destination wedding planning and contemporary design.

I’m someone who truly listens. When I organize a wedding, I take the time to connect with my couples, understand their needs and desires, and offer them the best possible solutions.
If you’re here, it’s probably because you’re dreaming of a wedding in Italy—an exclusive experience for you and your guests.
I’m originally from Reggio Calabria, a beautiful city in Southern Italy, but I fell in love with Florence’s breathtaking landscapes and Renaissance architecture, so I made it my home.
Before becoming a Wedding & Event Planner, I spent seven years working closely with the world of private events and weddings, gaining hands-on experience and
refining my expertise. My passion for this industry grew gradually, and what started as a side project alongside my legal career eventually became my full-time profession.
To get more insight into this beautiful industry and to further improve my skills, I pursued specialized training in Destination Wedding Planning, mastering all the secrets. Today, I use my experience and network of top-tier vendors to bring my couples’ dream weddings to life.

In 2017 I opened Massara Events Agency, which today relies on a team of highly qualified and experienced professionals. I guide them through every step of the planning process, ensuring that each wedding is flawlessly executed and truly unforgettable.
Over the years, I have built valuable collaborations, and in 2018, I was a semi-finalist at the Italian Wedding Awards, a prestigious recognition of excellence in the Italian wedding industry. From start to finish, I’ll be by your side, helping you select the most exclusive venues, the latest design trends, and the best vendors, carefully chosen over years of collaboration. My team and I will handle every detail so you can enjoy each moment, stress-free, turning your wedding into an unforgettable experience.

 

I Work With You To Bring Your Big Day Vision to Life, Stress Free

Planning a destination wedding is an art that requires research, meticulous planning, and specialized expertise. I will be your trusted guide throughout every step of the process, ensuring a wonderful experience for your wedding and your stay in Italy.
From breathtaking landscapes to rich historical and artistic heritage and, of course, the finest food and wine, I’ll help you immerse yourself in the beauty and culture of this extraordinary country. Every experience I curate is designed to make your stay unforgettable, allowing you to fully embrace the charm and authenticity of your chosen destination.

Planning & Budgeting

With our Wedding Planner services, it is possible to organize top-notch weddings. The wedding is planned by true professionals in the industry through a comprehensive consultation on every aspect of the day.
Starting with the budget and the requests presented by the client, the event is planned every single moment of the day. A range of services will be offered to characterize and complement one’s ceremony and reception.

Venue & Decor

I can lead you to the discovery of many exclusive and charming Italian locations, such as castles, country relais, villas, palaces, churches and mountain huts, medieval villages, hotels, wineries, abbeys, monasteries and more.

Event & Guest Coordination

First-rate suppliers will be proposed: arrangements, floral decorations, choice of catering, photo and video services, bridal styling, car rental, transfer and guest reception and much more. All following an elegant and consistent thread that will create a happy and memorable day.
Not only that, to better welcome your guests a welcome party and a farewell party can be planned, giving a unique Italian experience.
