The Italian Wedding Experience

The complete course for brides who want an intimate, elegant wedding in Italy. Step by step, from dream to reality.

Dreaming of a wedding in Italy, but don't know where to start?

You picture an elegant ceremony in nature, overlooking a lake or the sea, surrounded by your dearest people. But as soon as you start looking for information, everything gets confusing. Hundreds of ideas online, yet no one explains concretely how a wedding in Italy is organised. You don't know the local market, you don't know how the paperwork works, you can't check the venues. And you feel the beautiful dream slowly turning into stress.

The longer you wait, the more you lose access to the best venues and suppliers. The more you try to do everything alone, the more overwhelmed you feel. And the biggest fear stays the same: that your wedding day won't live up to the dream you carry in your heart.

The Solution

The Italian Wedding Experience is the course that gives you exactly what you need: clarity, structure and step-by-step guidance to organise an intimate, elegant wedding in Italy. Created by Marina Mătăsaru, with more than 10 years of real experience planning weddings all over Italy, the course takes you by the hand from vision to wedding day. No confusion, no stress, no costly mistakes.

Who I am and why I created this course

Sunt Marina Mătăsaru and, since 2014, I have been organising intimate, elegant weddings all over Italy.

I have created celebrations on Lake Como and Lake Garda, in Tuscany, on the Amalfi Coast and in Venice, as well as in medieval castles and historic villas. I have worked with couples from Europe, Russia, the Philippines and many other corners of the world — from spectacular three-day weekends to intimate weddings for two in a castle.

I created this course after seeing brides with clear dreams get lost in confusion, stress and contradictory information. In more than ten years of real planning, from paperwork and suppliers to choosing the right venue, I have gathered here the clarity and calm that help you make decisions with confidence.
