When it comes to organising a wedding, the first thing to think about is when! Do you like spring, summer, autumn or winter months? Have you always dreamt of a wedding in the summer, on a seaside location? Or with the snow? Are your favourite flowers blossoming in spring or late summer? For us, we were initially thinking to pick a bank holiday, so our anniversary would have always fallen always on a holiday!

Our wedding day was the best day in my life so far. I had a tiny mental breakdown the night before the wedding, when I was very stressed hoping everything was going to be amazing. Also, I was terribly missing Thomas, who slept in the hotel while I stayed at my parents’ house. I think every bride experienced that at some point during the wedding preparation, for me that happened the night before my wedding.

One of the first things we did after choosing the date of our marriage, was to start looking for the perfect location where to celebrate our wedding day! I am from the North of Italy, from a little town in the county of Bergamo (BG), so we wanted to celebrate our marriage in Italy. However, in order to make the journey accessible to all our guests, some of which were coming from the UK, Ireland, Netherlands, etc.
