Dear Elisabetta,
Firstly we must apologise for not contacting you sooner to thank you for planning and working with us on our very special Wedding Day in Tuscany.
[...]
We had the most wonderful day and we loved the ceremony and the special gifts we received which were a a complete surprise and a wonderful gesture from the Town Hall. We plan to get the picture framed as soon as possible and have already framed the beautiful certificate.
Our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever attended (apart from their own) and the comments since seeing the photos and video were such that if you plan to get married this is the way to do it and in such a beautiful place.
[...]
We are hoping to come back to SG next year for our Anniversary so we will come by to see you if you are around and of course we will give you our recommendation as it was a truly wonderful day with memories we will treasure forever.
We look forward to hearing from you seeing you in the future.
Kindest Regards

Dear Elisabetta

Thank you so much for the email. Hope you are well. We are, but we are missing San Gimignano so much.

The pictures are so amazing, we're extremely happy with the outcome.
Vincenzo did a fantastic job.
Please let him know, that he can of course use pictures for both his page, and also to send to the places mentioned.

We will gladly review him, but cannot find review section. Can you point us to it?

Hugs from Denmark

Hi Elisabetta

I wanted to email you to thank you for such a special day for us, we enjoyed every minute and although I'm completely disorganised you managed to keep everything on track. We loved the harp player and the meal with Max was fantastic.

The photographer was very patient throughout the day and we can't wait to see the photos. [...]

Commentaire:
Le 15 septembre 2016, nous avons eu le bonheur de nous marier à Grève dans la magnifique région du Chianti. Cette journée de rêve nous la devons en grande partie à Elisabetta qui a déployé tous les efforts requis pour nous permettre de réaliser ce beau projet de vie.

La préparation et la réalisation d’un mariage à l’étranger demandent la prise en charge de nombreux dossiers pour garantir sa réussite (ambassade, mairie, organisation du site, musicien, traiteur, interprète, photographe, légalisation des documents, fleurs, décoration, transport, etc.). Il est essentiel d’être accompagné par des experts sur place qui ont les compétences, les ressources et les contacts pour réaliser ce type d’événement, ce que l’agence Special Days a accompli avec grand succès.

Ce qui résume le mieux notre expérience avec Special Days, c’est le nombre d’étoiles (5) que nous lui avons décerné.

Merci Elisabetta pour ta disponibilité, ton professionnalisme et ta passion que tu nous as transmise tout au long cette belle collaboration.

Nous te souhaitons plusieurs autres réussites !

Commentaire:
My husband and I were looking for a wedding planner to assist us with our elopement in Tuscany. We wanted something small and private, but still special and beautiful. We live in the U.S and have no connections in Italy, so I googled some of the planners in the Chianti region. Elisabetta at Special Days replied very quickly and offered her assistance right away. She gave us many options, suggestions, and personalized ideas for our wedding that made the process go very smoothly. Elisabetta contacted and set up all of the services we needed for that day, including a harpist! Everything was very timely and professional, so I did not stress leading up to the event. We had a couple of things to finalize upon our arrival in Tuscany, but we fully trusted Elisabetta in selecting some final flowers and decorations. Everything turned out absolutely beautiful and Elisabetta was not only the officiant, but she coordinated and set everything up perfectly on that day!! We are so thankful for our gorgeous, amazing day in Tuscany and have been receiving so many compliments. Special Days in Tuscany has our highest recommendation!!!!

We found Elisabetta did a great job for us and made sure we had everything. We had no experience with Wedding Planners, especially one in Italy! However, Elisabetta understands English very well and also the requirements for UK citizens to be married in Italy and everything that we needed was explained very well.

During the weekend Elisabetta worked non-stop and was very accommodating making sure we had everything that we needed and that everything was prepared. She clearly knows what she is doing and is very experienced.

Elisabetta is very sociable and a calming influence. She is very easy going and we like her very much.

We would highly recommend Special Days in Tuscany.

Commentaire:
When we came across Elisabetta we were searching for a wedding planner. Several months later we celebrated our perfect wedding and emerged with a new friend.
Elisabetta was the fifth or sixth wedding planner we had contacted with our specific request – find us a villa big enough to house our family for a week where we could also host our wedding reception. Oh and please find a secret spot where all you can see is beautiful Tuscan countryside in every direction.
Where the others failed Elisabetta delivered. She paid attention to our requests and searched until she found the perfect place. Just as we’d requested, it was a quiet out-of-the-way location and she felt the owners were the kind of people we could work with. Since we were on the other side of the world we put all our trust in Elisabetta. We took her advice when it came to the caterers, a hotel for the days leading up to the wedding, the restaurant for the pre-wedding dinner, the cafe for the post-wedding drinks, the florist, the photographer and more. All came from her recommendations based on her contacts and her local knowledge. And there wasn’t a single thing that didn’t live up to her promise. In fact even though we’d spent months dreaming about our perfect wedding day there were many things that exceeded our expectations.
Elisabetta’s customer service was one of those things. We’d spoken via Skype many times before we finally made the trip to Tuscany and when we finally did arrive she gave us a warm embrace and made herself available to us whenever we wanted. She took us on a tour of the wedding venue in Siena and reception venue in the countryside nearby, gave us tips for the things we needed to do before the wedding and acted as a fixer, translator and Sat Nav for our guests as they made their journey to Italy. She didn’t once appear put out by our regular appeals for help. In fact every indication was she was genuinely enjoying the process.
When the wedding day came Elisabetta was there every step of the way, making sure everything went to plan. She made our guests feel at ease and was a pleasure to have around.
It was only by chance that we found Elisabetta and we’re so glad we did. She took the stress out of organising a wedding from another country and has given us such great memories of our time in Tuscany. We’re already planning our return visit and look forward to catching up with Elisabetta to share memories of the day she helped to make so special.

Commentaire:
we have the most incredible memories of an outstanding week, topped by the most emotional, atmospheric and beautiful wedding anyone could hope for.
[…]
First of all, a big thank you for making it such a special day. The amount of organisation and work that goes on behind scenes must have been incredible - I know you negotiated hard to get arrangements in San Gimignano as we wanted. [… Our guests were so impressed with the ceremony, the town hall (some said the love that was in the ceremony was so evident), and the courtyard which was a magnificent place for the prosecco.
They were bowled over when they saw the setting of our villa, with the views, and the aperitifs laid out so beautifully. The food ...... what can I say?? I will email Giuseppe and his family and team, but the whole thing was delicious. He is an amazing caterer and thank you for recommending him. The guests could not stop talking about it!
Your suggestions for other providers were equally successful; Valerio and Marco sounded so good, the string quartet were just right and we look forward to seeing the photographs and video in due course - they were certainly kept busy at all times!
Your florist copied our photograph for the table settings perfectly, in fact they looked better than the original! Please convey our appreciation. And the town hall sunflowers on the function room mantelpiece were a brilliant idea - I think you did that.
[…]
Our guests summed it up by saying it was the best wedding they had attended, and some of the engaged couples said they were frightened how to follow it, the bar had been raised so high!

So, a big thank you once again from all of us.
[…]
Best Regards,

Janet (madre della sposa) e famiglia

Dear Elisabetta,
now that the excitement and the hectic of the last days have settled, we would like to take the opportunity to say a bit "Thank you" to you! You have really been our saviour in many situations in the last days and we really appreciate so much everything you have done for us:

• Showing us this wonderful church that created exactly the right and festive atmosphere you want for a wedding (not to mention the "celebrity" reception by all the clapping and shouting tourists when my Dad and I stepped out the car on the square in front of the church :-))
• Recommending the great singer and organist that did an amazing job at creating very emotional moments with their music - not to mention their willingness to integrate our friend into their performance (she had so much fun playing with the two that she is now considering joining an orchestra again :-))
• Helping us with the flowers - the decoration was beautiful and everybody loved and complimented my bridal bouquet
• Supporting us with organizing transport to the church - even though we changed our mind a hundred times
• Acting as last-minute saviour by recomending a tailor that fixed our friend's dress very quickly and easily - we had already thought that she could not join the ranks of the bridesmaids, but then your tailor saved the dress!
• Putting in a lot of effort to organize child care for the small children - even though all your contacts were working somewhere else that day
• Even convincing your son and his friend to act as altar boys - it was amazing how easily they adjusted to the German ceremony It was a marvellous day for us and having you at our side really gave us a lot of ease and confidence that everything would work out. We are very happy we found you. How much easier would the whole organization have been if we had found you earlier. If we had to do it all over again, we would have entrusted you with the entire wedding - it would have saved us so much stress...
[…] All the best and thank you so much again! Ulrike + Sebastian

Our experience with Elisabetta and her colleagues was exceptional. We hired Special Days to do the following: Pick us up in Rome and take us to our hotel in Florence, by way of a tour of Orvieto Arrange our wedding (including photography by Mario) in Siena Arrange a day trip to Tuscany (San Gimignano) Everything was done to perfection. We could not be happier with the process, the price and the results. We kept worrying that something would go wrong on this very special event and trip, but it all went so smoothly and so "Special" that we keep smiling as we talk about this wonderful experience. Thanks so much to Elisabetta and Claudia and Mario. You are all the very best at what you do.

The minute we received a reply to our wedding inquiry, we knew that Elisabetta was the one to organise our Special Day! She answered all our respective emails quickly and efficiently and dealt with all the necessary paperwork as required. Having given her our requirements she found the perfect location for our intimate wedding in San Donato in Poggio. Everything was arranged with ease and with out question, even if we changed our minds along the way. Our day was absolutely perfect, all our wishes were met and our wedding ceremony will stay with us forever. It brings a tear to my eye just thinking about it.

My wife and I decided to renew our vows for our 10th anniversary, whilst on holiday in Italy with our children and parents. I had no idea where to start in organising the event. I contacted Elisabetta via specialdaysintuscany.com and from the start it was clear she would handle everything professionally and to our taste. Quite simply we had an amazing day, one of the best we have ever had as a family, with memories we will always cherish. Thank you to Elisabetta for all the preparation and ensuring the day was a success. I will wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone wishing to do the same as us. Mark, Chloe and family

We are so glad that we decided to use Elisabetta to help us organise our big day! She is very efficient and organised, and the whole process felt very straightforward and stress free. Elisabetta's recommendation for restaurant for our wedding lunch was perfect, and several of our guests said it was the best lunch that they had ever had, and the best wedding that they had ever been to! We felt that Elisabetta took the time to help us with queries, both in emails before the wedding and in the days before the wedding, and that she was very proactive in making suggestions that would improve our wedding. We would highly recommend using her. Thanks!
Sandra

Dear Elisabetta
Thank you very much for your message and not at least: THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!
You have been the greatest, this could not have been done so well without you. Regarding that we did not know the area at all, it would have been quite hard to do this on our own. It is so nice to hear that the providers thought well of us, we appreciate that a lot. Thank you for telling us. And we think the same about them, everyone has been so nice and helpful! [...] The wedding day itself was totally unbelievable. We are out of superlatives… San Gimignano is an amazing town with the most fairytale-like atmosphere. It was like being in a movie… all the clapping and cheering people in the squares, the wonderful weather, the touching ceremony, the surprising kidnapping, the photographers, dinner, speeches, - and the walk with torches to La Rocca with the dance and balloons… ahhh..what more could we wish for. I simply felt like Cinderella. Simply fantastic.
Nini and Per-Christian

Commentaire:
The other reviews are very complimentary about 'Special Days' but did not totally prepare us for our wonderful experience. The planning, organisation, attention to detail and personalised service from Elisabetta was outstanding. She listened to our thoughts and her communication was exemplary. We had an intimate wedding in Cortona set in a charming town hall rich in character and the wedding room was exquisite. The memories of the atmospheric setting, enchanting ceremony and beautiful flowers will stay us forever. We would like to say thank you so much to Elisabetta for such a wonderful wedding, for being there to support us and for making our day truly special.

Dear Elisabetta, We just wanted to write a short note to thank you for all your help and expertise in arranging our wedding in Volterra this September 2012. You always responded very promptly to our emails,which was a great reassurance to us. And given how many questions I had you were extremely patient! We chatted on skype and then met up in April when we came over to make a decision on our venue.It was great to be able to discuss plans face to face. We felt you always had time for us. Given we had an intimate wedding with only a handful of guests your recommendation of a restaurant for our wedding meal was spot on- so thank you for that also! Everything went without a hitch and we had the most wonderful day in the most beautiful surroundings. We cannot recommend you highly enough. Grazie Mille! Sara and Carl Sept 2012

We had the perfect wedding in San Gimignano, thanks to Elisabetta. She organised everything from the ceremony (both the civil and religious aspects) and the reception, to the smaller details such as hairdressers and airport transfers. Everything was done calmly, efficiently and to the highest possible standards. This gave us great comfort, especially as we were organising the wedding from so far away (Ireland) We cannot thank Elisabetta enough for making our wedding so special. We very much enjoyed our day and our guests had a wonderful time - we will all be speaking about it for many years to come! We would highly recommend Elisabetta to any couple wishing to marry in Tuscany. Maebh and Sean

Commentaire:
My wife and I had the perfect wedding in San Gimignano this July. We used the services of Elisabetta at Special days. She was friendly and very professional and achieved everything she said she would. She was especially helpful with the legal paperwork which required meeting several deadlines, and dealing with several embassies since I am from the UK and my wife if from Germany. Elisabetta also has very good connections locally (for instance with the commune), so was able to secure the ceremony room in the town hall at an early stage. Business in Italy is mostly conducted face to face so you cannot do this with a wedding planner unless you can be there in person and have time on you hands. I wish Special days all the best in business and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this firm. James and Kristina

Thank you so much again for making our wedding in Tuscany a dream come true. Your professionalism and knowledge in handling all the legal paper work for us was phenomenal and gave us peace of mind in our decision to marry in a different country. Your attention to details was fabulous as you took care of our florist, music, hairdresser and jeweler. It was a very romantic and wonderful story you have helped us create to start our lives together. All our best wishes, Liz and Ian

Commentaire:
Dear Elisabetta – George and I can only tell you that we had the most wonderful wedding day and far above what we could have hoped to expect. I was concerned that traveling so far and not seeing or assisting in the procedure of the ceremony and in a different country might cause a misstep or two to occur. My fears were foolish. Your help by E mail before we arrived, you schedule of meetings for pre-ceremony legal documentation were flawless and the ceremony itself could not have been more beautiful and memory creating for both of us. We are sure that would have occurred without your help and assistance. We both felt as if you were part of our family as you guided us and for that we thank you. We talk of that day often and you are part of that conversation and as we tell our friends of our wedding day you are always part of the success story. We wish you the best of success in continuing your assistance of others who want to enjoy the beauty of a wedding in Italy

Hi Elisabetta, We have now been back home for a couple of weeks and are so pleased that our wedding went so well. After meeting with you last year we knew that our week at Croce and the wedding day would be special but the reality was far better than we could ever have imagined. We are hoping to return next year for our first anniversary and a few of our guests are very keen to join us. Thank you once again for all your help and hard work and for directing us towards Croce. Kindest regards
