Mexichic Flowers & Events is the studio of Jenn Valentine, a floral designer born in Mexico City and now based near Venice, working across Veneto, Lake Como, Tuscany and Puglia.

The name captures it: Italian elegance with Mexican soul, which in practice means a confident, expressive use of colour. Jenn came from fashion, luxury retail and visual design, and trained at flower schools in London, Madrid, Mexico and Italy, so there's real technical grounding underneath the instinct. Her studio doubles as a flower bar, where guests can be guided through making their own bouquets.

We love her for couples who want colour and character in their flowers, and something a little outside the standard Italian palette.

Good to know: the flower bar works well as a guest activity during a wedding weekend, not just as a studio space.
