Bringing American sensibility and quiet luxury to your European destination wedding.
What I bring to the table is more than just local knowledge. You are getting someone with boots on the ground, someone who speaks the language, who can navigate the twists and turns, and who’s deeply connected locally.
What you get when you hire me is the best of both worlds: the cultural fluency and on-the-ground expertise of a local, paired with the refined sensibility and standards of an American-trained planner. I’ve honed my craft to deliver weddings that not only feel elevated and intentional, but are interpreted through an American lens , which is exactly what many of my clients are looking for.
Hiring a wedding planner especially for a wedding abroad—can be overwhelming. You're placing significant trust in someone to manage complex details from a distance, often across different time zones and cultures. Miscommunication and lack of local insight are common challenges when working with planners unfamiliar with the region. VWE eliminates those concerns.
As a Lake Como native, I provide clients with the advantage of local expertise, cultural fluency, and logistical precision. There are no time zone delays, no language barriers, and no guesswork. Every decision is informed, strategic, and tailored to the realities of planning events in Italy—ensuring a smooth and elevated experience from start to finish.
