Based between Verona and Lake Garda, Ella Events is a destination wedding planning agency for couples marrying in this corner of northern Italy, from the city itself to the lakeside and the vineyards of Valpolicella.

Looking after people, and all the emotions that come with a wedding, is at the heart of how they work. The team advises couples on Italian wedding traditions and customs, while leaving plenty of room for their own personalities in the plans. They put a lot of weight on transparency, which helps when you're planning from abroad, and their promise to couples is a simple one: they'll take care of you.

We love them for international couples who want a Verona wedding planner with local roots, and who'd like a little Italian tradition in their wedding without it feeling like they're following a script.
