We live in the UK / US / Australia / Asia / Africa and want to get married in Europe. Can you help us plan everything from abroad?

Yes, this is exactly what I do. Most of my couples live outside Europe and plan from abroad, so my process is built around that. I guide you through every step online, from venue selection and budgeting to design, logistics and guest experience. You get one clear plan and one person holding all the moving parts, so you can stay excited about the day instead of overwhelmed by the details.

Which countries in Europe do you work in?

I plan celebrations across many parts of Europe, with a focus on Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, the United Kingdom and Greece. I also consider other locations in Europe if they fit your vision and are logistically realistic for your guests. I recently planned a summer wedding weekend in Poland, so rest-assured if you already have a specific place in mind, we can talk through what is possible there. If you have no idea where to start, I will suggest locations that match your budget, travel needs and style.

Do you only plan weddings, or do you also plan birthdays and other celebrations?

Weddings are a big part of my work, but not the only part. I also plan milestone birthdays, anniversaries, intimate dinner parties, proposals and legacy celebrations where families come together in a meaningful way. If it is an emotional moment that matters to you, and you want it thoughtfully designed and smoothly executed, it probably fits within my services.

We are a multicultural or cross-cultural couple. Are you used to blending different traditions?

Yes, very much so. Many of my couples come from different cultures, countries or faith backgrounds, and they want to honour all of that without the day feeling disjointed. I help you decide which traditions to keep, which to adapt and how to weave them into one coherent story. My goal is that you, your families and your guests all feel seen and comfortable, without turning your day into a long list of formalities.

What does your planning process look like from first call to event day?

We start with a consultation to understand your story, priorities, non-negotiables and budget. From there, I create an initial concept and planning roadmap, then move into venue and vendor selection, design, logistics and guest experience. You will have regular check-ins, clear timelines and one shared place for all important details. On the day itself, my team and I are on site managing the schedule, styling, vendors and any surprises, so you can actually be present and enjoy your celebration.

How far in advance should we get in touch to secure our date?

For destination weddings and bigger celebrations, I recommend reaching out 12 to 18 months in advance, especially for popular summer dates and well known locations. Smaller celebrations or weekday dates can sometimes be planned in a shorter timeframe, but the earlier we start, the more options you have for venues and vendors. Even if you are still unsure about the exact country or city, it is worth starting the conversation so we can shape the plan together.

What kind of budget do we need to work with you?

I specialise in events where you want a considered, high quality experience for you and your guests rather than the lowest possible cost. Because every celebration is different, I do not publish one fixed number, but I will always be very honest with you about what is realistic in your preferred location. On our first call we talk openly about budget, priorities and guest count, then I suggest options and locations that make sense for what you want to invest. You can be rest-assured to get the maximum value for your investment.

Do you work with small, intimate celebrations or only larger weddings?

I love intimate celebrations just as much as bigger ones. Many of my couples choose guest lists of 20 to 60 people so they can be fully present with the people who matter most. I also plan larger weddings and multi day weekends when you want everyone you love in one place. What matters most is not the size of the guest list, but the intention behind the celebration and your wish to create a thoughtful experience.

Can you help us choose the country and venue if we have no idea where in Europe to start?

Absolutely. Many couples come to me with a feeling rather than a fixed location, for example “sunset by the water”, “historic but not stiff” or “a villa where everyone can stay together”. I translate that into concrete suggestions across different countries and explain the pros, cons and realistic costs of each. Once we narrow it down, I handle the venue search, comparisons and communication so you can make a confident choice.

Do you also help with guest travel, accommodation and weekend activities?

Yes, guest experience is a big part of my work. I help you think through travel routes, accommodation options, welcome drinks, group activities and subtle touches that make your guests feel cared for from the moment they receive your invitation. I work with you to provide clear information for your guests and coordinate with key venues and providers so the weekend feels seamless rather than stressful for everyone.

Do you offer partial planning or on the day coordination only?

My main focus is full service planning and design, because destination and multicultural celebrations are complex and benefit from one consistent hand from start to finish. In some cases, I can offer a more tailored service if you already have certain elements in place, but I do not offer simple “day of coordination” where I join only at the very end. I want to be involved early enough to truly protect your vision, your budget and your peace of mind.

How do you communicate with international clients and different time zones?

Most of my couples are abroad, so I am used to planning everything online. We use video calls, shared planning tools and email or messaging for updates, and I am flexible with call times to accommodate different time zones where possible. You will always know what the next step is and where things stand, so even from another continent you feel in control and supported.

Do you work with local vendors or can we bring some of our own?

I have trusted local vendor partners across Europe that I recommend because I know their quality, reliability and attitude. At the same time, there may be specific vendors you feel strongly about, such as a photographer you love or a cultural element that needs someone from your community. In those cases we talk it through and look at what is realistic and allowed by your venue. My role is to build a team that makes sense for your celebration and manages the mix smoothly.

Are you actually there on the day of the event?

Yes. I am personally present on the day, along with the support team needed for your specific event. We are the first ones in and the last ones out, coordinating suppliers, styling spaces, managing the schedule and quietly solving problems in the background. I want you, your families and your guests to feel calm and looked after from start to finish.

What is the first step if we would like to work with you?

The first step is to fill out the enquiry form on my Plan page with a few details about you, your ideal location, dates and the kind of celebration you are dreaming of. I will come back to you with next steps and a link to book a consultation call, where we can talk through ideas, budget and fit. After that, I send a tailored proposal and outline of how we can work together. Once you are happy and your date is secured, we begin the planning journey.
