Italian Event Planners
"I chose Italian Event Planners because I already knew Serena, and she planned the wedding of my dreams in October 2024. Throughout the whole planning journey I had a steady shoulder to lean on, a true professional who helped me choose the very best for my event. A special thank you to the rest of the team who were there on the day and supported me emotionally as well—each of you was fantastic. Andrea and I are so happy we chose you, and we would make the same choice a thousand times over."
Symbolic Wedding Celebrant
"Hello, I would like to thank Mirco from the bottom of our hearts. He was really very good at describing our story. From the first moment, my partner and I immediately felt at ease with him. He made us laugh, smile and cry, and we really could not have wished for more.
He celebrated our wedding in a special setting, with a view of the Colosseum... what can I say? Really the best. He also recommended a florist where we bought a small bouquet, and a photographer who took wonderful photos of us. We recommend them wholeheartedly.
Valentino and Josè"
Jaume wedding celebrant
"We were very happy with Jaume as our wedding celebrant.
He was easy to work with in the lead up to the wedding. He was easily available for video calls, then open to our direction on the tone and structure of the ceremony. He then guided us through the specifics of the ceremony and offered specific feedback on our vows and readings etc. when we requested it. On the day he performed very well, nailing that balance between earnest, fun, and smooth. He wrangled the various other contractors like DJ and photographer, kept the mood lively and easily got laughs from our crowd, and importantly spoke fluently (and beautifully) in English."
Anna | Wedding Celebrant Italy
"We asked Anna to celebrate our vow renewal, exactly a year and a day after our handfasting. For us, this wasn't simply a different way of marking our marriage — it was our way of understanding life and spirituality itself.
From the very beginning, Anna understood exactly what we were looking for in the ceremony: intimacy, emotional depth, and symbolism that felt entirely our own. Every gesture, every object we used, every moment we built together under her guidance fitted perfectly into the wider picture.
Our guests — even those who came in a little sceptical about such an unusual ritual — loved most of all that it was a moment that spoke of us, full of meaning that everyone could relate to, and everyone felt part of it, not least because we were all standing together in a circle.
The most moving moment for us was when our family and friends bound our hands with ribbon, blessing us with their wishes. Giving guests an active role within the circle and the ceremony, just as they are part of our lives, is without doubt one of the great strengths of a Celtic rite.
We couldn't recommend Anna more warmly — for her experience, and for her ability to truly see into a couple's heart and understand them at a deep level. She gave us a day we will never forget."
Wedding Celebrant Enrico
"Working with Enrico was such a special and fun part of our elopement journey. From the first interaction with him, I knew we would be in great hands and that we made the right choice for our celebrant. He handled everything with such detail and care, and was so intentional with every part of the process. My husband and I both felt connected and comfortable with him from the start, so when we finally met on our elopement morning, it felt like we were reconnecting with someone we’d known for a long time. The speech he wrote for us captured our story perfectly and made our ceremony unforgettable. At first we weren’t even sure if we wanted a celebrant but now we can speak from experience and say that there was no other way to go than choosing Enrico."
Valore Professional Celebrant/Officiant
"Valeria Michela Miccolis: a celebrant of immense V.A.L.ORE!
Choosing Valeria Michela Miccolis as our celebrant was one of the best decisions of our entire wedding. Truly, we cannot put into words how incredible — and especially how helpful — she was. With Valeria, you will definitely receive far more than what you pay for.
We found her through gigheaven.com, and she immediately stood out from everyone we contacted. Her energy, her passion, her bubbly personality — she captured us instantly.
Valeria was unbelievably supportive even before the wedding day. She guided us through every step with the Comune, helped us organise all the civil‑side requirements, and made sure everything was perfectly prepared. Her help was invaluable.
On the wedding day, with all the panic and pressure caused by torrential rain and a 2‑hour delay, she handled everything flawlessly. From start to finish, she was in full control, took charge, and delivered a beautiful ceremony despite the chaos. We are so, so grateful to have found her — we genuinely believe no one else would have done what she did.
We’ve attached a few photos with her, including one with the umbrellas she gifted us as a symbolic memory of the “trauma” we overcame together. It’s fair to say she is part of the family now.
If you’re unsure what to do… just book her.
You will not regret it — you will be in the best hands."
