Working with Ben and his team at Italy Weddings was one of the best decisions we made in planning our Tuscan wedding. From our very first call, Ben brought a grounded, gracious presence that made the entire planning process feel calm, clear, and inspired. His attentiveness to every detail—both large and small—was extraordinary. He offered well-curated recommendations for every vendor, from florists to photographers to live bands, only suggesting professionals he trusted and knew would deliver exceptional quality. His relationships with the venue owners, caterers, videographers, and musicians made every part of the process feel seamless and elevated. Even when the forecast teased us with potential rain, Ben had multiple contingency plans in place and handled it all with such quiet confidence that we never once felt stressed.
Beyond logistics, Ben’s thoughtful suggestions for extracurricular experiences—like the private vineyard lunch and wine tasting—were some of the most memorable parts of our wedding weekend. He was always available, responsive, and generous with his time and insight. Navigating a destination wedding in Italy could have easily felt overwhelming, but Ben’s blend of British charm and Italian warmth was the perfect bridge. He saved us countless hours and heartache, allowing us to fully immerse in the joy of the experience. If you’re considering a wedding in Italy, trust that you are in the very best of hands with him. Truly, it was magic.
Hair and Make up.
The moment I saw Consuelo walk in, I knew I was in good hands. As a bride, the hair and makeup trial can feel a bit nerve-wracking—but her presence was instantly calming, and her talent was undeniable. She is not only an incredibly skilled artist but also a kind, grounded, and graceful soul who made me feel truly seen and cared for. On the wedding day, she and her team arrived on time and worked with such ease and precision. Their energy was calming, their work was flawless, and they brought to life the exact vision I had dreamed of—effortless, timeless elegance. I felt radiant, confident, and most importantly, like myself. I’m so deeply grateful she was part of my wedding day and would recommend her to any bride looking for both beauty and heart in her glam team.
Florals
The florals for our wedding were nothing short of breathtaking—an exquisite blend of elegance, emotion, and artistry that elevated every moment of the day. Marisa and her team poured their hearts into every detail, and it showed. From the moment I laid eyes on the arrangements, I could feel the intentionality behind each stem and placement. Every bouquet, tablescape, and floral arch felt like a living painting—lush, romantic, and soulfully composed. The color palette was perfectly balanced, the textures layered with sophistication, and the overall effect was both timeless and wildly beautiful. This wasn’t just floral design—it was floral storytelling. Marisa and her team didn’t just decorate a space; they created an atmosphere that felt sacred, alive, and deeply aligned with the spirit of the day. I am endlessly grateful for their vision and their gift, and for turning our wedding into a living work of art.
Photography
Working with Mary and Maurizio was one of the most meaningful parts of our wedding experience. From the very beginning, they brought such a calming, present energy—gently guiding us while allowing space for real, unscripted emotion to unfold. Their ability to capture not just moments, but the feeling within them, is truly rare. Every photograph feels like a portal back into the day—full of light, intimacy, and quiet magic. They have an artist’s eye and a storyteller’s heart, and their deep connection to one another translates into how seamlessly they move through a space. We felt completely held and seen by them, and the final images are more than we ever dreamed. Timeless, soulful, and full of life—we will treasure them forever.
Catering
Your team was absolutely phenomenal—every single bite was unforgettable, and the love and care they poured into their work was evident from start to finish. We had the joy of working with them for both our pizza party rehearsal dinner and our wedding day, and each experience was uniquely special. For the rehearsal dinner, the atmosphere was elevated by thoughtful touches—like flour tossed across the wooden tables and charming décor that made it feel warm, rustic, and full of heart. On the wedding day, they flawlessly executed a stunning multi-course sit-down meal that left our guests in awe. The flavors, the pacing, the presentation—everything was done with such elegance and precision. Their entire team worked so hard, yet with such joy and grace, and it truly added to the magic of our celebration. Il Sorriso went above and beyond, and we are endlessly grateful for the nourishment and beauty they brought to our wedding weekend.
