Thank you so much we had the best day and couldn’t thank you and the team in Italy enough it was truly perfect!
There are not enough words to capture how much Perfect Weddings Abroad helped us organise our dream wedding abroad. From the moment we first contacted the team, they showed a level of professionalism and organisation that instantly put our minds at ease. What truly stood out was their transparency regarding the available packages and their inclusions. They left no room for confusion and made sure we were well-informed about every aspect of the planning process. One of the most outstanding aspects of their service was their accessibility. No matter what time we called, their team was there to help, patiently answering all our questions and addressing any concerns. This made us feel like a top priority, and it's a testament to their dedication to providing a top-quality service.
After lots of research, we knew that Sorrento, Italy was the perfect place for us to tie the knot. Once our package had been confirmed, the UK team introduced us to our Italian wedding planner, Viola. Instantly we knew we were in excellent hands. Viola's impeccable organizational skills and unwavering support throughout the planning process were nothing short of extraordinary. She even went the extra mile by arranging a visit to the wedding venue a few months before the big day, providing us with a detailed plan that left no room for uncertainty. Viola's wedding planning experience became evident in her ability to turn our vision into reality. She played a pivotal role in guiding us through the complex documentation process, ensuring that everything was in order for a seamless wedding ceremony. Her attention to detail was simply meticulous, leaving no room for error.
On the wedding day, Viola's dedication and expertise shone through. She orchestrated every detail flawlessly, making sure everything was perfect upon our arrival. She ensured that everyone was in their designated places at the right time and, most importantly, that everyone was happy and enjoying the celebration. Her presence was invaluable, and she contributed significantly to making it the best day of our lives. Perfect Weddings Abroad and their Italian wedding team, with Viola taking the lead, went above and beyond our expectations. Their professionalism, transparency, and unwavering support transformed our wedding abroad into a memorable and stress-free experience. We owe them our deepest gratitude for helping us create the perfect day we had always dreamed of, and more. If you're planning a wedding, especially abroad, this company is the one to trust.
Eleanor & Thomas
We wanted to take the opportunity to thank everyone at Perfect Weddings Abroad, we could not have asked for a more amazing day. From our very first enquiry when we spoke to Julie, to the actual day itself when Valeria went above and beyond to make our day perfect, we never once felt stressed! I would recommend PWA to anyone thinking of getting married abroad. From the flowers, to the car, the photographers to the venue, everything was organised with incredible attention to detail.
We were so lucky as the weather also played ball and all in all, it was a truly magical day and evening. Our guests were blown away by the setting, and all appreciated spending a few days in Sorrento before and after the main event! Beats getting married under a grey and cold English sky any day..
We had the time of our lives, thanks to Perfect Weddings Abroad! Maria was our initial contact and was fabulous. We got married in Sorrento and our planner Anna was absolutely brilliant. She organised our ceremony, flowers, harpist, three course lunch & evening reception all to perfection. She answered any of our questions putting our nerves at ease so we could just take everything in and just enjoy our day to the fullest. It really was our dream wedding!
The whole process from beginning to end was seamless! The wedding planner (Viola) in Italy made it such an enjoyable experience to plan the wedding and then when the day itself came, it went perfectly! All of our guests were wowed and we had the best day and have some amazing memories! Cannot thank Viola and the rest of the team enough!
P.S. We also just want to mention how amazing Viola was on the day, dealing with a few minor issues on the day so professionally but with empathy and efficiently. Our day went so perfectly and we truly believe that was mainly down to her. Thank you so much Viola, we are so so grateful
We booked our wedding in Sorrento back in 2019 for 2020 but as like a lot of people we had to postpone it not just once but twice! Perfect weddings helped us all the way through advising and helping us all the way we finally got married this June in Sorrento and the wedding went perfect the wedding planner in Sorrento was amazing we was really worried but we went through everything and even made extra effort to make sure things went right on the day without question they took items back and forth from the hotel in there own time it was really magical and our day was a perfect wedding abroad
It finally happened and it was PERFECT!! After two years of waiting (Covid of course) we finally got married at the Cloisters in Sorrento, Italy. It’s absolutely stunning there and we highly recommend. Antonella (Resort Rep) was incredible, we had issues with our legal paperwork and without her we wouldn’t have been able to get married. She managed to get all our documents legalised 48hrs before our wedding day. She made us feel relaxed and reassured us that everything would run smoothly… and it did. She thought of every small detail which made our wedding so special. Thank you to all at Perfect Wedding Abroad for recommending the Cloister and The Castore for our reception. Again The Castore venue was breathtaking!
From start to finish they offered a fantastic service! Can't thank them enough for making our day even more amazing than we could ever anticipated! Thanks to Maria the wedding organiser from the UK, she did a first class job, explaining everything and helping us plan, also thanks to antonella from Sorrento for all the hard work she did for us. It was a beautiful day, the violinist, the register, the photographer all were awesome! Everything was perfect! Thank you all xx
The wedding was better than I dreamt it could be! Thank you and your team so much, so organised and professional throughout. Thank you for giving us the best wedding!
We would like to thank you for all your help and support over the last 2 years. You were always so helpful even when i bugged you with lots of questions. The process was so easy and we were able to enjoy it rather than getting stressed over what was needed to be done. We couldn't have asked for a better day and Perfect Weddings Abroad understand what is needed to be done and ensure its as simple as possible. The in resort team were fantastic, Viola is amazing at what she does and made us feel so special. If people are looking to get married abroad i would definately reccommed you. Many Thanks for all your help Kim and Tom- The new Mr and Mrs Lane.
The Cloisters is a perfect mix of traditional and outdoors. Walking in through the archway and then seeing the tree and the blue sky above surrounded by the stone work is breathtaking. The guitar and mandolin players kept guests entertained before during and after the ceremony and added such a personal touch by playing songs special to us. While we were having some photographs inside cloisters they kept our guests happy outside.
Castore (our reception venue) had the most amazing views and everyone just stopped in silence as we watched the sun set. The food was also fantastic and they met all of our guests requirements.
It was perfect!
We just wanted to say a MASSIVE thank you to the team for arranging our wedding in the beautiful Sorrento - it really was perfect! We couldn't speak more highly of the team, the organisation, the venues, the attention to detail, our wedding specialist, Georgia, and especially our fantastic in-resort coordinator, for whom nothing was too much trouble. 5* service, we really couldn't have wished for more! Thank you so much again.
