Don’t hesitate hire Al Fresco Wedding to plan your dream wedding!!

Beatrice and Al Fresco Wedding are absolutely incredible. When we first decided we wanted to get married in Italy, I did lots of research looking for a wedding planner. I was referred to Beatrice from a previous couple who raved about her and when we met Beatrice I understood why.

We had to reschedule our wedding 3 times due to covid! And every time Beatrice was there to make sure everything was planned perfectly. Throughout all the ups and downs and stress of trying to plan a wedding from another country during covid Beatrice was always there to support us and make sure that when we did finally have our wedding it was incredible. Al fresco wedding has so many connections to so many vendors that it made planning so much easier as well. When it came to finally having our dream wedding every single detail was carefully planned and taken care of over the entire wedding weekend. We can’t thank Beatrice enough for all she’s done for us and making our wedding dreams come true.

Bea was always very responsive and prompt. Any issues I had she would resolve almost immediately.

All of our paperwork and planning was perfect and even though we had a rainy day in the end the plan B she had planned was beautiful.

Liz and Roberta were there and very helpful as well.

Would do it all over again or another event through Bea for sure!

Beatrice is simply the best

Choosing to work with Beatrice for our wedding was the first and best decision we made! We spoke with a few people initially but where some seemed disorganized, others were uptight and bougie. Then came Beatrice!

Not only does Beatrice have great taste and fantastic relationships, but she is also easy to work with throughout the entire process. We can’t imagine planning and executing our wedding with anybody else.

For anyone thinking of getting married in Tuscany, do yourself a favor and hire Beatrice and her team on day one.

Best wedding

Our experience with Al Fresco Wedding company was the best! Our wedding planner was Roberta, who is the best wedding planner! We truly recommend her, because she is doing a job, what she really loves and we love her!

Roberta is really perfect, all the emails were very detailed and if we had some questions (and we had those a lot :)), she alway replied really fast. We always got a lot of options to choose from (party places, photographers, videographers, florists).

On the wedding day, Roberta took care of everything and we were able to enjoy our day, we would not change anything. The best team to help organize your dream wedding.

Wonderful Wedding Planner & Dream Wedding!

Planning a wedding during a pandemic and across the world seems like it would be a challenging task, but it wasn’t with Roberta from Al Fresco Wedding. My husband and I knew right away when we met Roberta over Skype that she was going to make all our dreams come true. Over a short period of time, we built a very strong relationship. It was clear that she listened, communicated and wanted to implement all of our desires when it came to our special day. Every vendor and service was exactly want we envisioned and more. Roberta made us a priority in every way and even bailed us out of a couple of sticky situations on the days leading to the wedding. We greatly value our relationship with Roberta and can’t wait to see her next time we are in Italy.
We highly recommend working with Roberta and Al Fresco Wedding for a magical wedding experience!

Best Experience

Planning a Tuscan wedding while living time zones away in Denver, Colorado was a daunting task until Alfresco Weddings and especially Roberta took over the planning. From the first skype call I knew I was going to be in amazing hands. Roberta worked with me on all aspects of the wedding and truly understood our needs. On our planning trip to Italy about 5 months before the wedding, Roberta set up and accompanied us to various caterers to include Caterer and Florist. Together we picked the most perfect vendors for our wedding! While our wedding was not going to be a large affair, it was a time for our family and close friends to come together and celebrate with us. We wanted to start out the wedding festivities with a welcome reception and Roberta went as far as taking us on a walking Irish Pub tour to find our venue in Florence. Once we left Italy, we had everything buttoned down and the rest was smooth sailing with Roberta always on top of everything and replied to any communication at lighting speed.

When the big day arrived, Roberta and her team felt like a part of the family. Roberta made sure everything was executed to perfection and all our little touches were incorporated. We could not have had the wonderful wedding day that we did without the work of Alfresco Weddings and the ever-amazing Roberta!

We are forever grateful!

Could have never done it without you!

Liz and the whole team from Alfresco Wedding were simply amazing. We were doubting to hire a wedding planner but in the end we are more than glad we did and it was worth every penny. Not only the standard service before, including the fact that Liz is perfectly fluent in both English and Italian (huge value add!!!) but also all the extra work and effort put in due to the slightly more special circumstances with Covid were incredible. On the weekend itself, it took a huge load off of our minds to know that Liz and the team were there to support which meant we could simply relax and enjoy. Liz was not only very friendly but also very accommodating, flexible and really understood what we wanted and tried her best to make our wishes and vision come true – great customer service and focus!

Wedding planner

We worked with Liz who was fantastic! She immediately got who we were and what we wanted for our Italian wedding experience.

She works with a team of great vendors including music, flowers and venues. It was extremely easy to communicate with her from Canada and plan all the details, it wasn’t a stressful process at all.

Thanks Liz and her team for making our wedding amazing!

Fran delivered! Fran is an absolute angel! So our scenario was this is a destination wedding in Siena, Italy and the bride has never been to Europe (groom, yes). We had over a year to plan the event, but we were working hard to have sufficient funds for the trip and the event and so never had time to see/taste/listen to any of the choices she gave us for pretty much anything we needed to decide on. We placed our faith in her giving us options to decide from that were reputable and worthwhile. She sensed our needs and also our hesitations, so she made suggestions and presented them in a manner where she exhausted all other means and explained why we would do it this way instead of the other without being pushy either. In the end, we received rave reviews about catering, the women loved the floral arrangements, all the guests really loved the folk trio that serenaded us all day, our cake, AND WE REALLY HAD OUR FAIRYTALE WEDDING! within reasonable allocated funds!

Francesca ist das Beste was uns passieren konnte. Unsere Hochzeit ist nun einen Monat her und wir hatten unsere perfekte Traumhochzeit in Florenz und Francesca hat sogar unsere Vorstellungen übertroffen. Von Anfang an war Francesca sehr zuverlässig, sie antwortet sehr schnell und hat unsere Wünsche aufgenommen und uns wunderschöne Vorschläge für Locations unterbreitet. Francesca ist super sympathisch, bestens organisiert und geht auf alle Anforderungen perfekt ein. Sie ist bestens vernetzt mit verlässlichen und professionellen Zulieferern, die alles möglich machen. Sie hat wirklich an alles gedacht und hat sich für jeden Wunsch eingesetzt und für sich einen Mehraufwand in Kauf genommen. Sie hat das Budget kontrolliert und mit dem Action Plan uns durch das gesamte Hochzeitsjahr geführt. Unsere Gäste waren mega begeistert und es war für alle ein Erlebnis. Francesca ist wirklich ein Engel und mit dem Herzen dabei und wir würden alles genauso wieder machen.

Our dreams came true! Francesca was always responsive, knew instantly what type of venue and vision we had for our wedding and found us the perfect place that was organic in nature, historic and beautiful. Originally we needed space for 80 people to stay on one property and host a rehearsal dinner, a wedding reception with seated dinner AND a dance party afterwards as well as having the guests enjoy the property as part of an Italian vacation. Francesca found us the perfect place. That was the biggest decision we made first and after that everything else fell into place. Francesca answered any and all questions (and I had a LOT!) professionally and promptly. Even with the time difference between the US and Florence we had great communication the entire time. Every facet of the wedding was discussed and decided upon and we were ready to go when the Pandemic hit. We then had to decide if we were going to cancel or postpone. After many months we decided to postpone and without a blink Francesca was quick to work with us to set up another date and make sure all of the vendors were on board. I can’t tell you how much joy it brought to see Francesca in person when she arrived. She radiates confidence and happiness and I knew we were in good hands for the day. She orchestrated everything that day and we had the most beautiful Italian wedding. Our vision was accomplished. Everything was perfect. This whole time Francesca was invisibly moving around making everything happen when it was supposed to so that we were working with the setting sun for dinner and photos – it all worked out perfectly.
