Symbolic Wedding in Tuscany, Palagio Castle
Grazie per tutto! Si, siamo tornato.....Lei e tornato in Italia e Io in Germania. Prendiamo una luna di miele a piu tardi perche abiiamo tanto lavoro. Ho dimenticato molto Italiano, ma ricordavo molto questa settimana. Il castello era buonissimo....molta pioggia, ma loro hanno detto che possiamo tornare per piu foti. Ho molto di fare, quindi scrivo in inglese. Italy was wonderful as always. I lived there for 2 years and she lives there now....I'm there every weekend for skiing etc....It was my 5th or 6th time to Florence.
To answer your questions though.
The castle was fantastic. We didn't see all because of the rain, but the entrance is great, and the chapel was better than the pictures, we bought some wine, and the people were very nice.
All in all everything was great though, even the rain didn't bother us. We'll be more than happy to answer any e-mails. It's probably a little easier for me to answer them though, because I have a computer at the office and home for myself, but she shares with 3 other people at the office and doesn't have one at home.
Grazie ancora,
Joe

Protestant Ceremony in Church
And Reception at a Castle, Tuscany
We had a great time in Italy and we would like to thank you for your assistance and help throughout all this time, in California and in Italy! We will have great memories of our wedding and honeymoon, which we spent in Italy and France as well. (We visited Rome, Venice, Siena, San Gimignano, Pisa, Florence, Cinque Terra, Santa Maria Ligure/Portofino Bay, Monaco and Nice/Cote D'Azur, and have very nice memories, in spite of the heat wave).
The Church and Castle were wonderful, as were all the people who were involved. Veronica and Ilaria, and also our priest, Thomas Muller - all made us feel very welcome and were very accommodating during such an exciting and sometimes stressful event as a wedding. We are very thankful to all of them!
We were very satisfied with the Transport, the Hairdresser did a wonderful job and the photos are just great, the Photographer definitely is very artistic and talented! Our flowers were wonderful as well, and the Florist did a great job with arranging the tables' centerpieces. And the kids in our party had such fun time with Alice Delli. Lots of thanks to all of them and a special praise from all the parents to Alice. Also, the staff at Castello deserve a lot of praise - they were very, very good. Both in preparation and setup as in the actual catering and serving. We especially appreciate the serving of all tables at the same time, and the food exceeded our expectations. It was very, very good indeed.
We really like the photos that we received from our photographer.
All in all, the entire experience exceeded our expectations. We would especially like to thank you for all your efforts in creating a very memorable event and we can be a strong reference to your company if you so desire - just let us know.
With many thanks,
Liga

Protestant Wedding in Florence and VIP Reception in a Private Villa
The wedding was perfect! Your arrangements were superb! Yes, you can use my email address. The catering was superb and the food fabulous.
The wedding night was wonderful. The music both nights was perfect. Marie has an amazing voice - you need to list her for future weddings.
The Renaissance group - flag throwers, trumpets, drummers, dancers, musicians in costume was perfect - they were very talented! Weather was still
hot - that was out of all of our control. At least it didn't rain. Amazing on Sept 1 it cooled down and the rest of the time in Florence was beautiful weather.
Peter Casparian at St James Church performed a very religious and beautiful wedding ceremony. He is a very caring and wonderful individual! He was a person you instantly feel comfortable with and we were honored to have him perform our wedding!
The hair/makeup was fabulous - I would recommend them to other brides!
I will see if I can get a couple of sentences together you would like me to quote.
I can't wait to see the pictures and video - they were taking shots through the night and did not pose anyone. They seemed very professional and I wait for the results.
Ciao, Wendy

Civil Wedding in Florence + tour in Tuscany
Thank you and your company for making our wedding day so wonderful!
Everything was perfect! Our wedding coordinator Paolo was great. Paolo was professional, courteous, and a really nice guy. He was on-time for our initial meeting with him at the U.S. Consulate, and made the wedding day go off without a hitch! The flowers for my bouquet were just as I asked, and were beautiful. Although we have yet to receive our photos, (we've only been home 2 days), we were really happy with the photographer. He took at least 100 plus photos all around Florence, and was quick and very fun. We felt like "movie-stars"! Our lunch at "Beatrice" was terrific. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful, and the perfect setting for an after wedding luncheon. The owner of the restaurant took us up on the roof for a panoramic view of the city, and more photos. The couple who took us on our wine tour (Sylvia and Frederico) the following day were also a lot of fun.
We had a beautiful ride through the Tuscan country side, and sampled some wonderful wines. They even took us to some smaller towns that we missed this visit and last years. Sylvia even acted as an interpreter for us at a bank where we would not have had success without her help. Every thing was handled in a timely and professional manner, even the limo driver was on time to pick us up to-the-minute! Our wedding day was a huge success and truly memorable. We are so pleased with your companies service and will suggest it to any one for the future. We did meet another couple at the Consulate in Florence (the Monday before our wedding). They were also from the States, even from Philadelphia...small world....anyway, they were absolutely panic-stricken! They had used another company for the wedding plans, and it was not going well for them at all. Their coordinator failed to tell them correct times to go the Consulate, and as a result, their wedding was cancelled, and they even had to change the location of their wedding to Siena (their travel plans were taking them there). We felt very bad for them, and it made us appreciate your company all the more!
Thank you again so very much,
Sincerely,
Susan Green Liddy and Mark Liddy

Wedding in Pienza, Tuscany
First of all, Italy is incredible, everything was wonderful from the minute we got to Rome. The gentleman who picked us up at the airport in Rome was great, we had a little time after getting the Atto Notorio, which Daniella got us through painlessly, so he gave us a nice mini tour of Rome before dropping us off at the train station for the ride to Florence.
Florence was amazing! The staff at Hotel Della Signoria were very accommodating and helpful with all of our requests and questions. The hotel was in a very good location, walking distance to almost everything.
Petringano de Lago was also exactly what we were looking for, the service at the farmhouse was excellent and the accommodations were beautiful. Perfect location, if you are looking for a place for rest and relaxation.
Rome was the most chaotic place we have ever seen. We made a quick decision to return the rental car as soon as we got there. Not a good place for a tourist to be driving. Besides that, the hotel was also an excellent choice, walking distance to many of the attractions. The guide you arranged for the Vatican tour was very insightful and we received VIP service, no waiting in lines.
Pienza was perfect, everything that we had dreamed our wedding location would look like...quaint, beautiful and romantic. The walk from the hotel to the ceremony was filled with applause and congratulations from the residence of this wonderful little town. The ceremony was wonderful, the flowers were just what we had wanted...Silvio kept everything running very smoothly, from the time he met us at the hotel before the ceremony to the time we said good-bye it was a problem free event. The guitarist played beautifully, and it sounded great on the video. We were very pleased with the video and the wedding photos, if possible please pass along our thanks to the photographer and videographer for a wonderful job. Our reception luncheon at Del Falco was also a great choice, the food was delicious and the atmosphere wonderful. The hotel was very nice, and the view from our room was breathtaking!
Finally, we want to thank you for making our wedding and honeymoon more memorable and wonderful than we could of ever imagined. The service you gave us far exceeded our expectations. You managed to turn our thoughts and dreams into reality. Everyone from your staff was extremely helpful, and it was nice to know that you were only a phone call away if we needed anything. Please feel free to use us as a reference anytime, we would love to recommend you to anyone looking for a once in a lifetime experience.
Once again thank you very much. You are the "best".

Wedding in Elegant Villa near Florence, Tuscany
We could not have hoped for a more perfect day as the day of our wedding. Our wedding took place on March 11, 2001 at the Villa in Florence, Italy. Everything went flawlessly and every detail was covered. This perfect day was mostly due to the incredible professionalism and attention of the wonderful Euroevents and Travel Company, our wedding coordinators Sonia and Julian, and the wonderful staff of the Villa.
Planning a wedding overseas can be a stressful experience, but Euroevents and Travel made it seem simple and painless. From the first day they continually impressed us with their attention and detailed answers to all our questions. They always got back to us promptly with answers to our questions, examples of various services and unique suggestions of all possibilities. They had suggestions to fit every budget. All of our needs were met and the places they recommended were all top rate. Every professional they recommended we use were impeccably professional, from the hairdresser and makeup artists, to the photographer and videographer.
They also helped with every step of the legal process, to make sure all things were in place for the big day. The legal process can be intimidating, but someone from their staff was with us the moment we arrived in Italy to walk us through everything.
When the big day arrived, we were a bit nervous that everything would go smoothly, as we hadn't seen the flowers or the cake and some other things in person. However we found that we had no reason to be nervous-everything was beautiful. The flowers were among the freshest and most beautiful we had ever seen, and the cake was exactly as we had requested. The hairdressers and makeup artists they sent that day were so wonderful and attentive, and really worked with us and listened to what we wanted. The photographs are among the best we have ever seen-and many of our friends have commented that they have never seen their equal. The video was thorough and complete-no major event was missed, they captured it all and put together a wonderful video preserving our memories. Everyone providing a service arrived promptly and everything was done exactly on schedule. No detail was missed.
The place we held the wedding, the Villa was one of the most breathtaking places we have ever seen. It was as if we were a prince and princess in a palace on that day, and the staff treated us as if we were royalty. The food was some of the most delicious we have ever tasted, and our guests were delighted by the décor and the unbeatable cuisine.
We will remember this beautiful day for the rest of our lives and are so thankful we did something truly unique for our day. Marrying in Italy, which we feel is the most beautiful place on earth, will always be our most treasured memory. Euroevents and Travel was with us every step of the way and made this all possible. We cannot recommend them highly enough-they will make your special day perfect! Please feel free to contact us directly for more information.
Thanks again.

Civil Wedding in Tuscany
Our Florence wedding was absolutely perfect. I cannot thank you enough for all you did for us over the last 5 months. You answered every question patiently, thoroughly, and promptly. If it weren't for you, we never could have negotiated the massive amount of paperwork involved in making sure our marriage was legal. And Ameris -- what a jewel. She was so cheerful and prompt and knowledgeable and efficient -- and funny! She was a wonderful guide through our last steps. Please give her our very best wishes (we want to know when she is getting married!).
Thank you for all your hard work. I will recommend you to EVERYONE! In fact, I am passing your name and e-mail address on to a friend in Texas who has asked how to go about getting married in Italy. I told him he'd better correspond with you -- I only did as you told me, and everything went so smoothly!
We are so excited to receive the photographs and the final documents. Please send everything to our New York address.
Thank you again for all your guidance. I miss writing to you!
Stay safe in this crazy world, and if you ever come to the United States/New York, we would love to see you and show you our wonderful city.
Fondly,
Candace (aka Mrs. Stanley L. Malkin, M.D.)

Civil Wedding in Tuscany
We can't begin to find words thank you enough for all the efforts made by you and Euroevents staff to make our wedding in Florence the most memorable event of our lives. We were overwhelmed by the friendliness, charm and beauty of Florence and its citizens; indeed it is one of the most romantic and truly magical places in the world. Our time there will be etched in our hearts forever.
Our wedding at the Palazzo Vecchio was more romantic than we ever could have possibly guessed. The ceremony was beautiful and moving, and the Red Room was more gorgeous and awe-inspiring than we could have imagined. It was as if the love shared by the thousands of couples who have preceded us was filling the room, making our ceremony even more special. Words could never begin to describe the beauty of Florence, with the Uffizi Gallery, the Duomo, the Palazzo Pitti and Boboli Gardens, the Ponte Vecchio and so very much more. Our reception dinner at the Reataurante Beatrice was the perfect end to a perfect day. The restaurant was beautiful and the staff took exemplary care of us...from selecting the perfect table to menu and wine suggestions, we couldn't have asked for a more romantic reception dinner, in a more romantic setting. The private tour to Tuscany including San Gimignano and Siena and our tour of the Poggio Alloro olive orchard and vineyard even more perfect than we could have imagined. Our guide Stefania Danti couldn't have been more charming and informative. Mr. Gennaro Napolitano, our personal chef for our cooking class was wonderful, we will enjoy the recipes for many years to come. Your suggestion of Rome as our final destination was a perfect choice. The historic sites of ancient Rome, the beauty of the Vatican and the Sistine Chapel and the fantastic shops and restaurants were not to be missed.
As you could guess, we could barely imagine how we could ever bring together the hundreds of details that would be necessary for our wedding. From the planning process in the beginning where you made recommendations and answered all of our questions, you helped us create memories that will last a lifetime. You assistance and guidance with the paperwork made all the difference in helping us fly through the process without a snag. Our assistant/interpreter met us in Florence, worked with us to complete all our final paperwork and took care of verifying the final arrangements for the flowers and photographer. He was available day and night to help us with any questions and couldn't have been more charming or attentive.
We would like you to extend a special thank you to the hairdresser. We were ecstatic at how Nancy's hair and make-up came out. The flowers were more wonderful than we could have hoped, the florist did a tremendous job. The photographer did a wonderful job of suggesting locations for pictures before, during and after the ceremony. We can't wait to see the photos. We just know that they have perfectly captured our special day.
We just want to thank you again for making our wedding the most fantastic time of our lives. There are not words enough to express our gratitude to you and everyone at Euroevents.
All our love,
Nancy Allen & Larry Parretti
