Hiring Simona to be our wedding planned was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning process. As soon as we had Simona on board, everything felt a lot simpler. She gave us fantastic guidance recommending vendors, with a variety of options and price points so we could meet our needs. Simona was very quick responding to any questions we had and was brilliant on the day making sure everything went very smoothly. From helping us with the legal side of getting married abroad, to organising transportation for my family, Simona was there every step of the way. She made the whole process feel very smooth and stress free. Thank you so much Simona!!

Planning a wedding from Arizona to Tuscany felt overwhelming at first, but working with Simona made it effortless. She connected us with a curated group of vendors she personally trusts who were also familiar with the venue. Every single one of them was phenomenal. She even helped us add live ceremony music at the last minute, which became one of our favorite details.

On the wedding day, Simona was truly invaluable. She kept everything organized, on time, and running smoothly while quietly solving problems before we even knew they existed. Anytime something needed to be adjusted, she handled it quickly and calmly and always kept our happiness the priority.

Beyond her professionalism, she is incredibly kind and reassuring. At our intimate wedding it honestly felt less like hiring a planner and more like having a trusted family member there making sure everything was perfect.

We could not imagine our Tuscany wedding without her and would recommend her without hesitation.

Simona was the coordinator for our wedding at Villa di Ulignano in October. On our rehearsal and wedding day she ensured everything ran smooth and worked with all of our vendors.

We truly have the best of praises for Simona and would highly highly recommend working with her as your coordinator. She has been working in the industry for years and knew most of the vendors we were working with. She was incredibly kind but ensured that all the vendors ran smoothly. She also helped answer guests questions and generally helped with anything as needed.

Most importantly she was great to be around. Coordinating can be stressful but she ensured that me and my husband were laughing and stress free throughout the day. I cannot imagine a better person to work with and am glad she was there for our wedding day.

She took care of things I was stressing about without me even asking for her help! All the little details, from the set up the morning of, or the extension of the open bar she handled so easily and seamlessly. She is an incredibly calming presence and I cannot emphasize enough how much better we felt having her by our side during our wedding weekend. You will not find anyone better-hire Simona!!!

From the moment we met Simona, she immediately put us at ease. She took care of everything we needed—plus everything we hadn't even thought of.

Her attention to detail and calm presence throughout the entire planning process made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and enjoyable. Planning our wedding with Simona was honestly one of the best parts of getting married.

Simona truly understood our vision and brought it to life in ways we never could have imagined. The couple of days leading up to and during our wedding were absolutely amazing, and every single person who attended was blown away by how beautiful everything turned out. Her creativity, organisation, and dedication exceeded all our expectations.

She managed every detail with such care and made us feel like we were the only couple in the world. It was clear that she genuinely cares about making each event special and unique. Thanks to Simona, our wedding day was everything we dreamed of—and even better than we ever could have imagined.

If you’re looking for a wedding planner who will make your day effortless, fun, and unforgettable, Simona is your person. We’re so grateful for everything she did to make our wedding the most magical day of our lives

We were recommended to use Simona and her team at Above & Beyond by our venue. From the beginning, Simona offered thoughtful suggestions and creative ideas that helped shape our day into something really special. Simona handled everything with calm, care and professionalism. On the day itself, Simona's attention to detail and support made all the difference. We couldn't recommend her more

We worked with Simona as our wedding day coordinator and she did a really wonderful job. She was very easy to work with and was on top of everything all throughout our wedding day, we didn’t have to worry about a thing.

Simona was exactly what we needed to have the most perfect wedding experience.

I cant recommend the incredible Simona enough!
When we decided to get married in tuscany we knew we were going to need some help being from the UK ourselves.
We met Simona in 2021 and from that day she was great, we went out to Italy 3 times before our wedding and Simona would meet us each time, taking us to the florists, caters for food and wine tasting, organised hair and make up trials, to the town hall. She even invited my partner and I to join her family for pizza at a local restaurant, how incredibly kind is that. Simona also drove us to our wedding venue just so we could see it for one last time before our big day in a few months time.
I really don't know how we would of had the wedding day of our dreams if it wasn't for all the help from simona, she even let me whatsapp her instead of email as that's my preferred way of communicating.
She helped right up to the last minute and even when I realised we didn't have time to order a seating plan, simona organised this in Italy for me, bringing it to the venue with a aisle stand.
Her attention to detail was beyond measure.

Simona became more than a wedding planner but mine and Johnnys friend. She even married us! Adding extra special touches such as warming of the wedding bands to all our guests and a wine ritual where you join two wines together, perfect as we got married in a vine yard!
Thankyou simona for everything ❤️

Simona at Above and Beyond Tuscan Weddings is simply THE VERY BEST OF THE BEST !!!!!!!!! Literally from our first conversation 18 months ago until the final wedding guest retired on the wedding day Simona was there for absolutely every little thing ( having organised all the major logistics ).
We arrived a few days before the wedding & Simona saw us every single day. She even alerted us to a closed bridge on our route to the destination, giving us an alternative & saving us hours on the journey. What other wedding planner would check your route like that. How kind it was.
In addition Simona married my daughter & son in law as she is certified to do. That was a huge saving of €1000 ,as she incorporated it into her very reasonable fee. Simona organised the venue ( CASALI DI BIBBIANO) ,flowers, catering, entertainment ,photography ,hair & make up ,& rehearsal .
She also suggested some wonderful Italian traditions such as the warming of the rings & blending of two wines together so that Jenna & Johnny could drink from the same challis.
As well as sorting a coach to ferry guests to and from the venue and the airport, she even took the drivers number & spoke to him that morning to double check the meeting point.
Most touching of all was when we arrived at the Town Hall to complete paperwork. Simona gave Jenna a beautiful bouquet to hold. This detail hadn’t even occurred to us with everything going on. It was this attention to detail that made EVERYTHING PERFECT.
If you are thinking of marrying in Tuscany, there is no more beautiful place on earth. If you want to do it with ALL THE FUN AND NONE OF THE GRIEF , then Simona is the woman to make it happen.

Simona was absolutely incredible. She used all her expertise and knowledge of the area and vendors to help us create our dream wedding. She made excellent suggestions of vendors and was happy to work with vendors we suggested too. Our wedding was a fairytale and that was all thanks to Simona. Simona made planning our wedding easy and she removed all the stress from us throughout the planning process and on the day. I couldn’t recommend her and her team more highly.
