‘Your constant support throughout the year leading up to our Wedding as well as during the wedding day was second to none. I felt reassured and in safe hands knowing that someone was on the "same page" as myself, and would do everything possible to deliver my dream of having a Wedding abroad to the highest of quality standard of which it certainly was! The fact you could be contacted at any time, any day made it even more easier, and to be responded to quickly and efficiently made any worries disappear so I could enjoy the preparations for our life changing event. You always went the extra mile for us, nothing was a problem, and you genuinely cared. For someone like myself who shall we say is a "control freak" I trusted your judgement in that you would make our Wedding Day as magical as what I had imagined. You certainly delivered what you said you would.'

    Positano Dream Wedding Experience with Fede

    Making the decision to get married overseas can be daunting and overwhelming. When we decided to have our wedding in Italy, we knew that we would require the assistance of a local wedding planner. Our journey started with a google search where we found IWE and had our first call with Federica. There are many great things I can say about our experience with Fede, but I'll start by saying she is a true professional who genuinely loves what she does; this is something that makes all the difference. From the very beginning until the end, she was always just a quick email/zoom call/message away and always got an answer to us ASAP. When I had questions or concerns, I didn't have to worry about whether my concern was being taken care of and I had full confidence that I was in good hands. In the days leading up to the wedding we had some curve balls thrown our way due to changing circumstances. Throughout these events she remained calm, smiling and assured us that whatever we decided, she would take care of it - and she did it so seamlessly! I am very grateful to have had Federica by my side throughout; she is compassionate, kind, hardworking and as a bonus, has excellent taste. Thank you Fede for making our wedding event an absolutely beautiful one that we will not forget!

    Truly the best of the best!

    Where to even begin! We found IWE from a simple google search and from the moment we had our first zoom call with Francesca we could tell what a truly special person she was. For the next 20 months, Francesca worked tirelessly to put together an Italian wedding beyond our wildest dreams!! She picked up on our style and preferences very quickly, found us the highest-quality vendors, and always provided the most helpful suggestions. She made everything about the planning process SO easy and effortless. We came to visit Polignano about a year before our wedding and she went out of her way to arrange for a wine tasting at our venue, complete with *dozens* of selections and home-made foccacia from her husband's catering company Puglia Kitchen (who we hired for our post-wedding pool party and were OUTSTANDING!). And that was only the beginning! Francesca went absolutely above-and-beyond to take care of us and our families in the week leading up to the wedding -- everything from finding a last-minute shirt replacement for my man-of-honor to picking up a prescription for my father-in-law when he had a medical emergency. And the wedding itself....there was no detail missed, she took care of absolutely everything! My husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing, and the result was honestly the most stunning and once-in-a-lifetime experience. From the music to the catering to the decor, everything was such a dream!! And we owe it all to Francy....who has now become a very dear friend. We cannot thank you enough.

    The best day of our lives!

    Getting married abroad can be an overwhelming experience — especially during a pandemic! — but Francesca went above and beyond for us. From scouting venues when we couldn’t and giving honest and thoughtful feedback, to supplying us with a carefully curated list of talented vendors, and planning out every last minute of our day, we truly couldn’t have asked for a more dedicated and thoughtful person to have guiding us through the process.

    We had three separate wedding events that Francesca planned, including pre-wedding drinks the night before and a lunch the following day, as well as many logistical details involving buses for family as they moved from their accommodation to the venue. All of this went perfectly, and our guests are still reminiscing now, four months on.

    The big day itself was held at Villa Cenci
    — a venue we’d never actually seen until the day before the wedding, which speaks to the level of trust we had in Francesca — and she ensured every detail was completely perfect. It was without question the best day of our lives, and we will be forever grateful for everything she did to ensure that for us.

    I’ve since passed on Francesca’s details to two family friends — one of whom was at the wedding and blown away! — and would recommend her to anyone else in a heartbeat.
