A day in the life of a wedding planner in Italy…
“Lights…Cake…Action!”
“Wow!…what an amazing job!…How on earth did you get into that?” is a regular response when I reply to the standard ice-breaker “What do you do?” The gasps and wide eyes reflect the glamour and magic rightly associated with summer Italian weddings.
Admittedly, being a wedding planner in Italy is amazing in many respects; it being the most testing, varied, emotional, exciting, physically demanding, creative and rewarding job I have ever done.
I never set out to be a character from the film Father of the Bride, choreographing swans through fountains, neither did I dream of being “J-Lo” from “The Wedding Planner”, urgently whispering into a headset “FoB gone awol, report to BM asap!” but more than once, couples have actually delighted at having “their own personal Franck!”
Having always worked in events and harbouring a passion for Italy, organising weddings and parties for English speaking clients in some of the most beautiful corners of this peninsular combines the perfect balance of work and play. I remember one grey morning sitting at my desk in Piccadilly, answering a call from a London wedding agency who were looking for an Italian-speaking planner to join their team.
I polished my shoes and dived straight in!
