A boutique countryside estate near Siena with Michelin-starred dining and curated gardens, set on 300 acres of Tuscan countryside. Ideal for 30–60 guests for multi-day celebrations.
An 11th-century cliffside palace with the Amalfi Coast's most iconic infinity pool. Capacity 80–150 guests, often booked 18 months ahead.
A historic private villa above Marina Grande, with terraced gardens, frescoed interiors, and Bay of Naples panoramas. We produced a €650,000 anniversary experience here in two months.
A 15th-century monastery with a façade attributed to Michelangelo, in Fiesole. Reopened 2026 after a full restoration. Capacity 60–120 guests.
A three-day destination wedding in Tuscany uniting Catholic and Monsone traditions across cultures and generations.
Tablescapes featured Ginori porcelain — the same used at Gucci Osteria by Massimo Bottura — for a celebration where heritage met haute craftsmanship.
A private anniversary experience worth €650,000 designed and delivered in just two months across Villa Astor and Il Riccio in Capri.
Eleven Riva yachts transferred guests to Capri, with dedicated sommeliers per table and rare wines flown in from across Europe.
An intimate wedding for 25 guests at Grand Hotel Tremezzo, defined by an unforgettable arrival.
One of the spouses entered on horseback during a traditional Indian Barat ceremony, as the busiest road on Lake Como was closed for 30 minutes and escorted by local police.

Full-service destination wedding planning: creative direction, venue selection, vendor curation, budget architecture, on-site coordination, guest experience design, and multi-day event production. From your first consultation to your last dance, ELLEFFEVENTS manages every detail of your wedding in Italy — so you never have to.
You submit your request for a quotation. We do not send a generic portfolio or price list. Instead, every proposal is tailored to your vision and needs.
You schedule a consultation call through our calendar. This ensures our first conversation is structured, private, and fully dedicated to your project.
During the first call, we discuss your budget, vision and desires, preferred locations or regions in Italy, and the ideal package based on your expectations. At this stage, we also guide you toward the best areas for your type of wedding.
Once you decide to proceed, you sign the contract and complete the deposit payment to officially secure our services.
After the contract is signed, we schedule a second video call dedicated to building the detailed budget together, creating the moodboard to define the wedding vibe and aesthetic, and understanding your priorities, style, and the price range suitable for potential venues.
Within 7 days, we deliver a fully tailored Excel comparative file featuring 5 to 10 curated villas — including prices, services included, key information, pros & cons, availability (if requested), and videos and photos from site inspections, where we analyze every angle for Plan A, B, and C.
You receive full access to a private Google Drive folder containing all signed documents, planning files, scripts and timelines, music lists, guest lists, moodboards, budget sheets, supplier proposals, and more. Everything is transparent, organized, and updated in real-time.
Throughout the planning journey, we work on 2 to 3 topics at a time, ensuring focus, precision, and a smooth, stress-free progression toward the wedding day.
Everything US couples ask before booking a destination wedding in Italy with ELLEFFEVENTS — from timing and budgets to legal paperwork and vendor coordination.
For luxury destination weddings in Italy, we recommend booking 12 to 18 months in advance. This gives us time to secure the most exclusive villas (which often book 12–24 months ahead), curate the right vendor team, and design every detail without compromise. We currently accept new commissions for 2027 and 2028.
Our specialty is destination weddings in Italy for couples from the United States and internationally. We are fluent in English, work in US time zones during planning calls, and understand American wedding traditions, family dynamics, and expectations. We also welcome couples from Canada, the UK, and beyond.
Our average wedding budget ranges from €150,000 to €500,000+, with celebrations regularly exceeding €1M for multi-day experiences. We work best with couples who prioritize creative vision, exclusive venues, and flawless execution over cost-cutting. We do not offer packages or templates.
Yes. We coordinate the entire civil, religious, or symbolic ceremony process — including documentation from your home country, translations, apostille services, civil registry appointments at the Italian comune, and (when applicable) Catholic or interfaith ceremony permissions. Most US couples opt for a legal civil ceremony in the US followed by a symbolic ceremony in Italy, which we plan as the main celebration.
Both. We have deep relationships with the most exclusive private villas, historic estates, and luxury hotels across Lake Como, Tuscany, the Amalfi Coast, Sorrento, Capri, and Florence — many of which are not publicly listed. We also welcome couples with a venue already in mind. Within 7 days of contract, we deliver a curated comparative file with 5–10 venues tailored to your vision, complete with pricing, services, and our on-site notes.
Distance is never a concern. You'll have a dedicated planner as your single point of contact, all documents centralized in a private Google Drive, regular video updates throughout planning, and a complete on-site team in Italy on the wedding week. We've delivered weddings for couples we never met in person until two days before the event — and they've been flawless.
A non-refundable deposit secures our services upon contract signing. The balance is structured in 3 to 4 milestone payments aligned with the planning phases (venue confirmation, vendor commitments, final balance 30 days before the wedding). All vendor payments are managed transparently through our agency, with full visibility for you on every transaction.
