When our couples feel strongly about certain suppliers we are going to at all times endeavour to work with them. Having said that, after a few years of experience in the marriage industry I actually have learnt to at all times thoroughly look into every supplier before we conform to work with them, and that is in one of the best interests of our couples too. The good thing about having us in your team throughout the marriage planning journey is that we will offer expert advice and guidance on which suppliers will enable you to have an incredible day, and which now we have concerns about.

The marriage began with a welcome party at Palazzo Ximenes, a romantic hidden gem of a venue in the guts of historic Florence. Our suppliers worked hard all day to remodel the courtyard space into a trendy, glowing space overflowing with Italian lemons and coming alive with music and live cooking stations. Whilst our suppliers were putting together the foundations of the welcome party, our team was out delivering welcome bags to guests, checking in on our couple and doing final site visits at the marriage day venue, so it was vital we could depend on our florists, production company, caterers and musicians to bring all the pieces together.
The subsequent day our wedding planning team of 9 were working across 3 venues; the couple’s hotel (4 Seasons, Florence) where bridal prep was going down, the Florence Synagogue which was being styled and arrange for the chuppah, and Villa di Maiano where we had put up a clearspan marquee, installed air con and were now turning the space right into a floral oasis. It was an absolute joy to work with such talented suppliers who took our couple’s vision and turned it into reality, working from the direction we provided to them throughout the planning process.
