Wedding planner

Beatrice has been marrying couples in Tuscany for fifteen years, mostly from northern Europe and the US. She works with a small set of estates she knows inside out.

Julie has been planning weddings in Bordeaux wine châteaux for over ten years. She offers a three-meeting package for couples who mostly want reassurance.

Anaïs plans Paris weddings in private mansions and châteaux less than an hour away. She has a long contact book and makes no secret of it.

Harriet plans manor weddings in the Cotswolds, with the full English tradition: speeches, a millimetre-precise seating plan, a whole weekend.

Eleni does a lot of elopements and very small weddings in the Cyclades. She is blunt about the constraints: wind, heat, stairs, August crowds.

Giulia plans on the Amalfi coast, where almost everything comes down to logistics: narrow roads, boats, staircases. She builds access plans guest by guest.

Louise has been planning countryside weddings in Vaud farms and estates for twelve years. She knows the regional caterers by first name and still negotiates every quote herself.

Margaux produces large-scale weddings on the peninsula, often over three days with a private beach and an arrival by boat. She books 18 months ahead.

Carmen plans finca weddings, usually outdoors and late in the day. She always insists her couples visit at least once before signing anything.

Yasmine plans riad and desert weddings, often over three days with a henna night, a dinner under canvas and a brunch. She also handles the Agafay desert permits.

Elena works on both sides of the border, from Ticino to Lake Como. She handles the Italian paperwork for Swiss couples — not a small thing.

Sophie works with the grand hotels of the Swiss Riviera and private chalets in the Oberland. A team of five, full production, and a habit of multi-day weddings.

Clémence works a lot with French-Swiss couples, between lake and mountains. Her method is written down: shared timeline, living budget, a check-in every two weeks.

Camille comes from interior architecture and it shows: clean lines, honest materials, nothing left to chance. She takes six weddings a year so she can stay present from the first meeting to the last crate.

Léa mostly marries foreign couples coming to the Riviera. She manages the gap between what a couple pictures from London or Zurich and what Provence actually allows in August.

Mariana works between Lisbon, Sintra and the Comporta beaches. Many French and Swiss couples come to her for Portuguese value for money.

Sara works with the lake’s historic villas. She knows exactly which jetty takes which boat, and when the light hits each terrace.

Naïma is French-German bilingual and plans a lot of cross-cultural weddings. Two-language ceremonies, families who don’t speak each other’s language yet, menus that must please everyone: her home ground.

Núria comes from corporate events and applies the same rigour to weddings: one shared document, one source of truth, nobody gets lost.

Marie does mountain weddings: alpine pastures, huts, small Valais villages. She warns upfront that the weather decides a lot, and always has a serious plan B.

Inès works with couples who organise themselves but want someone to hold the day together. Her prices are public on her own site, which is still rare in this trade.

Beatriz plans in the Douro valley quintas, at budgets well below the European average. A young agency, still with open dates.
