I met Elena for the first time in Como, after receiving a warm recommendation from Villa d'Este, where we did our wedding. After the meeting, my husband and I looked at each other and knew that we have finished searching for our wedding planner, she was found. Relaxed, attentive and most importantly puts the needs of the bride and the groom first. Planning the wedding was a long process but Elena made it the most fun process for me as a bride. She was next to me through each step, always taking care of our best interest. The wedding day went by exactly as planned, all thanks to Elena and her sense of commitment, she made sure that all the vendors involved will be on time and will give their 100%. Elena to me is an honest, caring, responsible and amazing person that I will always remember with respect. Thank you Elena for making our evening unforgettable and simply perfect. You truly made me feel like a princess in my very own fairytale.

Ciao Elena! I wanted to thank you again for being the most amazing wedding planner. We couldn't have imagined three events that were as perfect and magical as they turned out to be, and it wouldn't have been possible without you!! Thanks for your patience with all our ideas and requests.

I cannot recommend Elena enough. She planned three days of events for my wedding weekend culminating with a 110 person wedding at the Villa d'Este. Through the whole process, Elena was communicative, honest, relaxed and fun. Because of Elena - planning a Lake Como wedding from LA was a breeze: I showed Elena a few Pinterest pins, told her my vision, and Elena executed all of the work and gave me my fairytale wedding. I met Elena for the first time in person ~5 months before my wedding. After that meeting, I had zero doubt Elena would take care of the entire weekend. She is incredibly thorough, organized, and knows the Lake Como vendors very well. Because of Elena, the planning, leadup to the wedding, and wedding weekend was stress free. The weekend and especially the wedding exceeded my expectations by 10x. She gave me a wedding beyond my wildest dreams. Moreover, she is a good person and wonderful to work with. Choosing Elena to be my wedding planner was the best decision I made.
