About Emma

Hello, I'm Emma.

I was born in Ricadi, on the Calabrian coast, and I have spent more than fifteen years organising events, including as head of internal events at the London Stock Exchange.

I know this coast, its islands and the families who run its venues. I bring that to your search, along with the organisation of someone used to events where nothing can go wrong, so you can choose with confidence from wherever you are.

What I do

From the first search
to the last dance.

Cliffs and boats along the coast

Venue finding

A shortlist made for you: venues I have checked for your dates, guests and budget, with the prices I have secured, and visits arranged with you or for you.

Where most couples start

Planning

Suppliers, timings, your guests' travel and stays. Partial or full planning, shaped around what you would like me to take on.

Once the venue is chosen

On the day

I run the day with the venue and every supplier, so that all you have to do is be there for it.

Calm, from start to finish

The private collection
