"Luisa and Annick helped us immensely in planning our wedding celebration in Italy. As we are from the UK, it was really helpful to have two fantastic local ladies to navigate the cultural and language barrier we had, they were so amenable with scouting for venues with us and were there with us every step of the way including the catering tastings which was our favourite part! They recommended many fantastic suppliers and dealing with our numerous queries and requests, as well as the overall coordination on the day of the wedding itself, everything went perfectly! Thank you and Grazie Mille La Bottega Del Sogno!"

"Luisa’s staff is the best! They helped us plan our dream wedding and were with us every step of the way. We had zero stress on the day as they were there to coordinate it all, our friends and family all commented on how amazing & helpful they were - I cannot recommend them enough!! PLUS they drove me to the ceremony, aircon on full blast to keep me cool and even jumped out of the car to put a windshield cover on to make sure none of the guests would see me.”

"We feel so lucky to have worked with Luisa for our wedding in Tuscany. From the very beginning, they were incredibly kind, genuine, and easy to talk to—which made the entire planning process feel less overwhelming and more joyful. They brought great ideas to the table and were always open and flexible as our planning unfolded. One of the things we appreciated most was how they gave us thoughtful options at each step, so we were never stuck in decision paralysis but always felt in control. They matched us with the perfect vendors—our photographer, florist, hair stylist, DJ, and musicians were all amazing and aligned beautifully with the style and atmosphere we hoped for. They also introduced us to our venue, Villa la Palagina, which turned out to be the perfect setting for two unforgettable days in Tuscany with our family and friends. On the wedding day itself, they were incredibly helpful and attentive. We’re so grateful for their care, professionalism, and heart!”
Elizabeth & Sam (June 2025):
"We are from Canada and recently had our destination wedding in Italy, Tuscany — something that felt incredibly overwhelming to plan at first. But working with Luisa was truly the best decision we could have made. From the very beginning, she made the entire process so easy and enjoyable. Luisa always provided us with multiple options for every aspect of the wedding and was respectful of our budget. She offered thoughtful suggestions and expert guidance, but always ensured that the final decisions were ours. She maintained regular communication with all of our vendors, which gave us so much peace of mind throughout the planning process. On the day of the wedding, Luisa was nothing short of amazing. She arrived early to help set up, coordinated with everyone behind the scenes, and took complete charge so we could focus on enjoying every moment. Thanks to her, everything ran so smoothly — from the ceremony to the reception — and we truly had the stress-free wedding day we had hoped for. We are so incredibly grateful for all that Luisa did for us and cannot recommend her services enough. If you’re considering working with her — do it. You’ll be in the best hands!”

"The choice of the Wedding planner is not just a practical thing. Look for someone who understands your vision, who understands the essence of your love, and can transform it into reality. I spoke on the phone with 7 wedding planners. All great professionals definitely, but when I met Luisa by phone the first time she touched my heart. I felt immediately understood and that I would organize everything with a friend instead of a person who keeps a detachment from you and the event. Actually, Luisa does nothing with detachment, she really cares and we perceived that at every stage of the organisation. Always available and was present all the way! From the choices of shoes and dress until we left for our honeymoon. Practically a whole year. I can’t even think how I would have managed the emotional side of things without her, because she supported me like a sister would! I am Italian from Trieste, my husband is French, we live in London and we got married in Tuscany. Just by writing down right now I believe it conveys the logistic and practical difficulties we faced. These difficulties were greatly reduced thanks to her availability, professionalism and the Wonder Woman Luisa proved to be. She listened to every little preference and desire and turned them into reality. Our location, though beautiful, was complicated and rigid on some things, Luisa handled a large part of that stress and tried to minimise the impact on us. To give you an example, my husband wanted a very particular and rare car for our post ceremony drive away. Luisa found it despite our wedding being in a rural area. Then this car was sold and was no longer available. What did Luisa do… She found another one!! I absolutely wanted peonies for my bouquet. At that time they are rare, and not recommended because of the heat. Luisa got me the peonies and I don’t know exactly what she did, but they were perfect for the entire time. The guarantee you will get having Luisa as your planner is to have someone someone who lives your wedding planning with the same importance it has to you and not as “one of many” she has to organise. For her it is a passion, not a job. All this is complemented by her sweetness, a fabulous sense of humor and a lot of professionalism. For me, besides all the wonderful memories of my wedding and the events organised that weekend, I also feel the joy of having found a precious friend. I recommend Luisa for all these reasons, and others that I have not yet managed to express with words but that are kept in my heart.”

The wedding organisation is not simply a job….it is to cultivate an others’ dream that at the end will become also your dream.
