Bohdana HORECKA
"Bohdana is absolutely wonderful to work with! She is highly professional, communicates clearly and promptly, and is always proactive in sharing ideas and suggestions.
We had a very unconventional marketing campaign, and she was open to the concept from the very beginning, embracing it with enthusiasm and creativity. She was incredibly supportive throughout the entire process, flexible, and always willing to explore new ideas.
I have nothing but praise for her professionalism, creativity, and positive attitude. A huge thank you, Bohdana, for being part of our event and helping us bring this unusual idea to life."
TIBi Events Production - Music Planning
"I can't thank TIBI Events enough for helping me plan the perfect proposal in Florence. From the first message, they were friendly, helpful, and always happy to answer my questions. What I really appreciated was their honesty and experience.
Everything on the day was organised perfectly. The team worked together seamlessly, and it all felt relaxed and natural. Because of their hard work, I was able to focus on the moment and enjoy it with my now fiancée.
The proposal was perfect, and the photos are beautiful. We will remember this day for the rest of our lives. If you are thinking about planning a proposal or special event in Florence, I highly recommend TIBI Events. Thank you again for making such an important day so special❤️"
