My husband and I planned a wedding in Italy from the UK, and a couple of weeks before the wedding had an unexpected issue with paperwork which meant that the wedding would have been cancelled. We found Europe Wedding and spoke with Massi, who did research for us and contacted all the people required in Italy in order to smooth the complicated bureaucratic paperwork process. We had a perfect wedding in Puglia and can't thank Massi enough for his professional service and support!

We wish we could do this all over again. Our first contact was with Roxy, who has patiently followed us in the selection of our possible venues. After multiple video chats with Massi (the founder) we finally picked our destination (yay!) and we were so relieved in having found the place that was thinking and dreaming of.
We then had a long but very fun planning with Lucy & Benny, who stepped into the wedding management for designs & mock up, vendors booking, spreadsheets and budget oversee. Their detailed program was really helpful and ease our life so much!
On the actual day they were always there around us, making sure everything was as expected and took very good care of our guests.
We are so grateful to the whole team for this AMAZING experience, lots of love!!

We are now back on Los Angeles.

I don't know where to start....... everything was planned SO WELL. We couldn't believe it. We were expecting something to go wrong (other than us missing our morning train to Florence on Friday) and it didn't. Lucy was THE BEST. Everything was so well organized. She is a very warm, friendly person while maintaining a high level of professionalism. Your company definitely has an asset by having her as an associate. We can't think of our wedding without thoughts of her and her family. Her little sister was bubbly and adorable. We were also privledged to meet her mother who is lively and full of grace. We want to keep in touch with her and hope to see her again in the future. I told her I was going to ask you for her email address because after the wedding, I didn't have anything to write it on and didn't have the capacity to remember it at that time. Please send me her email address. We want to send her a written thank-you for making our day so stress free and memorable.

The wedding hall alone was worth being married in Florence. I didn't realize it was in a castle.... I think that is important for people to know when choosing a wedding location. It sort-of adds something extra to the "room" when you know that it is in a castle, not just a city building. I don't think I can find the words to properly describe how much we loved it.
The red interior with the gold mirrors was something of a fairy tale. Also, the official who married us was quite delightful. He insisted on having his picture taken with us. I can't wait to see all of the pictures.

The photographer walked us through town to take photos. We also went to the rowing club and took pictures by the river. Then we headed out of town and took pictures over-looking the city. When we came out of the castle/town hall, we were almost mobbed by tourists who wanted to have their pictures taken with us...... so we made them happy and posed for a few extra shots.

A couple of notes on the hotels..... We stayed in 2 different hotels in Rome. We mainly stayed in Hotel Stendhal, but when we went back to Rome the night before we left for the U.S. we stayed in a different hotel because Stendhal didn't have a room. Hotel R (Rome) is great for 3 reasons.
(1) It is in a good location. (2) It is not expensive. (3) It is a newer hotel. Hotel M (Rome) is nice because (1) The rooms are huge (2) It wasn't that expensive. Hotel M was in a less central location, but once you knew your way around the city, it was better for us because the rooms were larger. Also, it was an older hotel and had more of the "flavor"
of Rome.

Hotel R (Florence) was a good hotel for these main reasons. (1) It was inexpensive (2) We had a suite #505 which was actually detached from the main hotel. It was behind the hotel and was a 2-story suite. It makes for a good honey moon suite.... especially for people who have a smaller budget.
You might keep it in mind. (3) Hotel R wasn't in the middle of the piazza madness. It was closer to the train station and actually quieter. We had our 2 guests in 2 single rooms and they were able to sleep comfortably with their windows open.

I will send you some pictures when we have everything sorted. Please send me Fabio's email address. Thank you for everything. It was so well planned and everything was beyond our expectations.
