About this vendor

Your Destination Wedding in Italy is a wedding planning service in Tuscany and Italy. The company is operated by two wedding planners who have decided to combine their skills and curate memorable experiences for couples.

Lucia is 40 years old with 14 years of experience and is based in Tuscany with Sicilian origins. She is a Mediterranean woman who is passionate, empathetic, impulsive, and a volcano of ideas! She loves the sea, music, and everything that sparkles. Lucia Saltalamacchia decided to specialize in the art of wedding planning by attending courses in Italy and overseas. She works with the best professionals in the industry, both locally and internationally, to ensure excellence in service. Over time, Wedding in Maremma (registered trademark) transformed into Lucia Wedding Events.

Ilaria is an incurable romantic and serial organizer who has made her passion her profession. Born and raised in Milan, she loves animals, good food, meeting new people, and traveling. This passion combines perfectly with her work because although her headquarters are in Milan and Lake Como, she works throughout Italy and wherever she is needed.

In love with love, she constantly seeks inspiration in the couple's story to make their wedding unique and works with them. Ilaria gives maximum importance to details and empathizes with clients. She is the perfect wedding planner if you want to create your event with originality, joy, and a pinch of lightheartedness! Her primary purpose is to make wedding planning a journey for the spouses.

We’ve had a perfect wedding in Tuscany

Lucia and Ilaria helped us to organise our wedding in Tuscany and we couldn’t have dreamt about a better outcome. We and our guests had unforgettable time in Tuscany. The civil ceremony was romantic and touching. Location offered spectacular Tuscan views and authentically friendly atmosphere. The food was amazing and we can’t really think of one thing that could have been better.

Working with Ilaria and Lucia was a pleasure. We started with an interview about our expectations, budget etc. and they walked us through the plan of the preparations. Their approach was really end-to-end: research of potential locations and vendors; making sure that everything is arranged in time; taking care of formalities with local council and coordinating the entire wedding day. This made the entire process a lot easier for us and we could really enjoy our day rather than stress about flowers or food.

Last (but not least) Lucia and Ilaria are really amazing, passionate and friendly people who really care about their work. Thank you!

I could not have asked for better people to make our dream wedding come true. Ilaria and Sara were more than I could ever dream for. Ilaria even officiated us. They both did such an amazing job with flowers, music, everything was perfect. I love the both of them so much for what they did for my now husband and I:) HIGHLY recommend both of them, and thank you both so much!!!

Lucia Helped Bring Our Vision to Life

We highly recommend Lucia. From the very beginning, she was professional, kind, and a pleasure to work with. What stood out most was how well she listened to us and understood exactly what we wanted for our wedding.

My husband and I weren’t looking for a formal or traditional wedding, and Lucia really embraced that. Rather than steering us towards a standard approach, she helped us find the right vendors and made thoughtful recommendations that reflected our style and priorities. Throughout the planning process, she was organised, supportive, and incredibly easy to work with, and everything came together exactly as we had envisioned.

Thank you, Lucia, for all your hard work and for helping make the day run so smoothly. We truly enjoyed working with you and would wholeheartedly recommend you to other couples.

Job well done

From start to finish, everything ran smoothly. It was clear how much work went on behind the scenes to make it all happen, and we are grateful for the entire process. In the end we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Lucia and her team helped create memories we’ll carry with us for the rest of our lives.

Incredible!

To sum up in one word- Lucia was simply “superb”. From our very first engagement, she was very responsive & extremely enthusiastic about making my vision come to life. She listened & understood exactly what I wanted to achieve with my theme. Which was unusual in itself -“diamonds & sparkles”! Lucia handled all the details for me (& there were a lot!). And it was all in the detail…. Every single detail meticulously thought of by Lucia & executed with slick procession. On the day- I just got to enjoy my party & see my guests truly “wowed”. An incredible event & the best party I’ve ever been to-guest’s all agreed! Words can’t thank Lucia & her team enough for making my milestone birthday so special & memorable. Thank you!

Everything I asked for and more ❤️

I first reached out to Lucia and Ilaria to help plan our 10th Wedding anniversary. We were hoping to celebrate with a beautiful trip through Tuscany that included wine tastings, an intimate ceremony and a wonderful dinner. I asked for fun, low stress, beautiful. The entire week was planned and coordinated to perfection. We had private transfers, multiple wine tastings, cooking classes, massages and spa experiences and the most amazing vow renewal. The vow ceremony was an absolute dream. They found the most beautiful location, found a perfect celebrant and handled every little detail. This experience could not have been more perfect.

If you are looking for someone to listen to you and handle every small detail, these are the women for you!

In the pictures you will see Ilaria, Lucia and our Celebrant! Such a great match and a perfect day.

True wedding angels!

Ilaria and Lucia are truly amazing at what they do. We mostly dealt directly with Ilaria and she is truly wonderful. They answer in a timely manner and are so patient. Ilaria always answered the questions I had and reassured me. Our wedding exceeded our expectations. Even with all of the updates they sent us, it was still even more beautiful than I imagined. Ilaria checked on us after the wedding to make sure our travels were going well. They made this process as easy and seamless as possible. When we had a last minute idea or two they made it happen without any issues. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone without a doubt.

Matrimonio in Maremma 14.06.2025

Abbiamo contattato Lucia quasi un anno fa, e da subito si è rivelata una guida preziosa nell’organizzazione del nostro matrimonio da sogno, che in soli 9 mesi ha preso vita tra Milano e la Maremma.
Non è sempre stato semplice: abbiamo trovato Lucia quando avevamo già selezionato alcuni fornitori con cui lei nonostante non fossero i suoi è riuscita a collaborare, abbiamo scelto di celebrare le nozze in una casa privata , e non in una location già attrezzata per eventi. Questo ha comportato qualche sfida in più, ma Lucia ha saputo affrontare ogni ostacolo con grande competenza, calma e determinazione.
È estremamente preparata dal punto di vista tecnico, e i fornitori che ci ha consigliato sono stati impeccabili sotto ogni aspetto.
Siamo certi che affidandosi a lei in una delle location che conosce bene – e che sono già predisposte per accogliere matrimoni – e affidandosi ai suoi consigli per i fornitori il risultato non possa che essere eccezionale.
Nel nostro caso, nonostante le complessità di una casa privata, Lucia ha saputo ascoltarci ed è riuscita a realizzare esattamente il matrimonio che desideravamo, regalando a noi e ai nostri ospiti un giorno indimenticabile.
Grazie di cuore, Lucia!

Our Fairytale in Montemerano

It’s hard to put into words just how grateful we are to the incredible Lucia. From the very beginning, she was more than just a wedding planner — she was our calm, our guide, and our biggest support throughout the entire process.

Every single detail was thought through with such care and attention, and because of that, we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Even when the weather forecast wasn’t in our favor, she reassured us so gracefully that we truly believed everything would work out — and it did. Her calm confidence and kindness gave us peace of mind that let us fully enjoy the most special day of our lives.

Our wedding day was more beautiful than we ever imagined. It was seamless, joyful, and deeply meaningful — and we owe that to Lucia. Her talent, dedication, and heart created not just an event, but a memory that we’ll treasure forever.

Thank you, Lucia, for standing by us every step of the way and for giving us the greatest gift — a wedding day filled with love, laughter, and pure happiness. We’ll never forget it. 💛

With all our hearts Gio & sali
