"We are thrilled to share our experience with Francesca Zafarana: she and her team of collaborators demonstrated great professionalism, creativity and empathy towards our wishes. We live in Milan but dreamed of returning to Sicily for our wedding. All our guests came from outside the city. Francesca was able to support us in managing our guests, creating experiences for them to enjoy in Noto the day before, and perfectly interpreting our aesthetic tastes. In addition to this, she made us feel confident in all the steps that led us to take the big step, always with a smile on her face, but at the same time with punctuality and precision. Francesca's fee was the best investment for the success of the event and, considering the effort and the result achieved, it was definitely favourable. The result of all this hard work was a perfectly organised day."

"We had a Dream Wedding in Castellabate – Beyond Our Expectations indeed. From the moment we contacted Michelle at Italy Bride and Groom Weddings, we knew we were in the best hands. Planning a destination wedding from abroad can be overwhelming, but Michelle made everything seamless and stress-free. She guided us through every detail, from choosing the perfect venue in the breathtaking town of Castellabate to coordinating every aspect of our special day. She looked after all of our guests throughout their stay too. The venue was absolutely stunning, with the most magical views of the Cilento coastline. Every detail, from the flowers to the exquisite Italian cuisine, was perfectly curated. The ceremony was heartfelt and personal, with Michelle as our Celebrant too, and the reception was nothing short of spectacular. Our guests are still talking about how incredible everything was. Michelle’s professionalism, kindness, and expertise made our dream wedding a reality. We cannot recommend Italy Bride and Groom Weddings enough to any couple dreaming of a romantic wedding in Italy!"* Karen and Michael, Married in Castellabate, 2024 "

"We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful officiant than Micaela for our wedding in Tuscany. From the very beginning, she brought such warmth, kindness, and genuine care to every moment of our ceremony. Her presence made the entire experience feel relaxed, heartfelt, and deeply personal — exactly what we had hoped for in such a special setting. What made her truly extraordinary was her ability to capture the day through her own lens, recording the ceremony and candid moments so naturally that we didn’t even notice the camera — only later realizing how beautifully she had preserved those memories for us. She felt less like a vendor and more like a dear friend guiding us through one of the most meaningful days of our lives. We’re endlessly grateful for her warmth, grace, and for helping make our Tuscan wedding everything we dreamed it would be. 🇮🇹🤍"

"Micaela was absolutely wonderful and delightful. We reached out to her on short notice and thankfully it all worked out. Half of my family lives in Rome and it was so important to us that we have a dual language ceremony. Not only did Micaela deliver on that, she also did a wonderful job with attendee engagement, crafted a personal introduction to our story and had wonderful elements of union that I didn’t expect to have with a symbolic ceremony. We worked with her for every element of the ceremony to create a beautiful bespoke flow that was so perfectly us. If you’re looking for that, no need to look further! Grazie mille Micaela!!"

"Semplicemente unica Devo essere sincera… tutti i nostri parenti erano increduli su questa nostra scelta di non fare il classico rito cattolico, ma dopo il rito civile celebrato da emilia sono tutti rimasti estasiati! A parte l’emozione del suo racconto minuzioso su di noi e il nostro amore, ma anche la magia che è riuscita a trasmettere in primis a noi e dopo a tutti loro. Emilia è speciale… e ha saputo rendere speciale il nostro giorno. Grazie"

"Kelsey Graham is a must have at your wedding I was married Saturday and Dr. Graham was my officiant. Besides the girl I decided to marry he was the best decision I made that day. I had only spoken to Dr. Graham two times before the ceremony, once as an introductory meeting to decide how we would like our wedding to go, and again when he sent the script over for our approval. People said that we must have known him for years, that's how personable he made our wedding. He was so funny and so professional and also has an incredible ability to make important decisions on the fly. He said that he provided us with microphones when we decided to say our vows. My wife and I are loud people so I told him we really wouldn't need them, he looked at me and smiled and said "Well than we won't use them that is not a problem." He is so understanding of the couples needs and wants and is willing to make any adjustments that he can in order to help us make our day as special as possible. It is hard to find someone who can do that wedding that doesn't have a one script fits all approach, but we found one. If you are reading this review looking for someone to officiate the wedding, stop looking and just give him a call. After one conversation about what you want with your wedding with him you will be so confident that he can do it and you will not regret it."

"We chose our officiant with our hearts, and we couldn't have made a better choice! From the very first meeting (via WhatsApp), she made us feel at ease, truly listening to us and understanding our story, our values, and the type of ceremony we wanted. The entire celebration was intense, authentic, and moving. Her words, based on the stories we shared about our journey, were able to convey our story with delicacy, depth, and joy, engaging both us and all our guests; the handfasting ritual, in particular, was truly touching. We never imagined we would be so moved, and Micaela managed to do so! Even our guests shared in our feelings and congratulated us on the ceremony, saying it was one of the most beautiful and heartfelt they had ever attended. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any couple looking for a personalized, well-crafted, and truly unforgettable ceremony. 💛"

Dear Sara, I really appreciate your kind words and I'm so happy we shared such a special moment together. Thank you for your handmade gift! You are an artist. I loved the ceremony and the Irish atmosphere and the venue was perfect for the two of you. I wish you all the best for the future, I'm sure you'll have many other unforgettable moments to live together, since you are a gorgeous couple!!! With all my heart, big hugs to both of you!

" Kelsey served as our officiant at our wedding. We live far away from where we got married so it wasn't possible to meet him before but he took the time to "talk" to us about the ceremony over the phone and email. He is super responsive to email which greatly helped plan things. He was very flexible with the ceremony and did things just as we asked. He also had helpful suggestions about how things should go which helped us as well. He was a bit more expensive than other officiants we contacted but it was all worth it. I would definitely recommend his services."

"Professionale,seria ed ineguagliabile Emilia.... Una persona speciale che prende a cuore il lavoro che svolge abbiamo avuto la sensazione che ci stesse sposando una parente intima. Si coinvolge e ti trasporta in una storia che sembra un sogno ma alla fine ti rendi conto che è pura realtà di cui tu sei il protagonista. Ho visto altre Celebrazione ma CREDETEMI È LA MIGLIORE. LA CONSIGLIO A TUTTI. Inviato il 21/07/2024"

"I wish I could give Luigi & Ceola Manor a higher rating than 5 stars. From the moment we looked at the venue to the day of our wedding, both Rachel and Luigi were extremely helpful. My wedding was perfect! I had 170 guests and everyone one I've spoken to had an amazing time, and I've received rave reviews on the food and the service. People are still talking about how good the prime rib was! The location is also beautiful. Ceola is located along lake Osceola in Jefferson Valley in the Hudson Valley region. I noticed a few of my friend's changed their Facebook profile photos to the ones taken at my wedding. The weather also helped. It was a gorgeous day, but I'm sure even if the weather "

Momentous Occasions thought of every single detail and gave it the full attention it deserved making our daughters day an unforgettable one! Planning both the bridal shower and wedding was stress-free as Momentous Occasions kept us on track and made it a piece of cake for us, not to mention enjoyable! A lot of care and dedication was put into the planning process to make the outcome of it simply perfect, also ensuring the bride was calm at all times. Momentous Occasions exhibited calmness, patience and perfection throughout the entire planning and execution stages. On the wedding day, Momentous Occasions was ensuring that all was going according to plan in the background while the rest of us were able to enjoy the moments of this special occasion. We cannot thank Momentous Occasions enough. We are so grateful for all the hard work and the hours spent on making this occasion one that our family and friends cannot stop talking about!"

"Dr. Kelsey Graham and Catherine Were fantastic to work with. They were easy to get ahold of if I needed something or had a question. His style and attitude helped me feel confident that everything was going to go well. They were always on time and ready to go. I live out of state so had to do all of the planning from a distance and I appreciated having an officiant and photographer I could rely on. I would recommend them every time."
