Sally & Sean

from England
Daniela proved to be an exceptional wedding planner. Being an Italian who speaks absolutely perfect English, she was able to effectively communicate our needs to all the local Italian vendors and people involved in the organisation of our wedding. Nothing was too big a problem or too strange a request. 

Daniela is very dependable, intelligent and cooperative and, above all, she is calm. Weddings can be very fraught and ours was no exception but Daniela was always composed, efficient, helpful and encouraging. We felt we could call or email her with any problem or idea at any time and she would be willing to take it on board and use her initiative to find a solution. She was very mindful of our budget and often advised us when she thought we could save money in one area so it could be better used in another. 

Daniela is honest, intelligent, friendly, imaginative and dependable. She has the perfect characteristics for the ideal wedding planner and we would have no reservations in recommending her to any couple wanting to get married in Italy.

Daniela was absolutely amazing to work with! We started planning our wedding very early, and she was with us every step of the way! I never thought we could actually have our wedding in Italy until I found Daniela. She made all of our visions come true! She was very responsive, professional and accommodating. With us being in the States, the time difference was a challenge, but not for Daniela. She planned ahead to make sure we could talk via Skype. 
Since we don’t live in Italy we weren’t sure of the “normal” options for weddings (ie, food, cake, music…), so Daniela made recommendations for all of the above. EVERYTHING she recommended was EXACTLY what we wanted! Daniela met with us when we arrived and went through all of the plans. On the day of, everything was flawless! I will recommend Daniela to everyone!

If you are looking for the perfect wedding in Rome, then you have found the perfect wedding planner. 

From the first time we contacted Daniela, she was extremely professional, very organised and always responded promptly. Not only is Daniela great at her job, but she is also a lovely caring person too. This made the whole process of organising our wedding much easier.

Nothing was ever a problem and Daniela always went over and above to make sure everything was right for usWe even borrowed Daniela’s dog for our photos which was very special for us as our own dogs couldn’t be there. this was the perfect touch to make our wedding a wonderful day that we will never forget. Daniela went over and above to make our day perfect and she is a wonderful, caring person. If you need a wedding planner, Daniela is the best!

Jessica Knowles married BBC Presenter Nick Knowles

from England
With my partner working in the public eye, it was vital we worked with someone who could provide complete discretion. Daniela was pro-active, positive and always contactable. She has fabulous contacts and all the suppliers we worked with provided the highest quality service. Daniela was not only coordinating our wedding but a photo shoot for a national magazine in the U.K (as our wedding pictures were being shown in HELLO! magazine), we had 2 cameramen, a photographer, makeup artists, different locations, carriages and cars and she co-ordinated it all effortlessly. From start to finish the process of planning my wedding with Daniela was wonderful and her presence on the day itself was incredibly calming. I would whole heartily recommend Daniela for a personal yet professional service that ensured we had the most magical wedding day.

Lara and Thomas

from the USA
When my husband and I were in the beginning stages of wedding planning, we actually “interviewed” a few wedding planners, but eventually chose Daniela from Dolce Vita Weddings. We live in DC and wanted someone who is familiar with Rome, as well as the venues and vendors there. We were able to meet with Daniela and our vendors/venues a year prior to our wedding, and it was obvious from the vendors that Daniela has a positive reputation amongst them!

In hindsight, we are grateful that we chose Daniela. Our welcome party, wedding ceremony/reception, and farewell brunch exceeded our expectations. Daniela was easy to work with and communicate with. If we needed to touch base with her via video chat, she was able to set up a meeting as soon as possible. She’s very organized — each email thread has its own purpose (music, florist, menu, etc.), which was really helpful when our questions seemed all over the place!

It was evident that Daniela knows the vendors and venues well. She sent us many options for our Welcome Party, Church, Reception, and Farewell brunch. We loved working with Daniela from Dolce Vita Weddings!

Dear Daniela

Once upon a time there was a Swiss Italian couple living in Switzerland who just wanted a little fairy-tale wedding in Rome…  Fortunately, they have found a fairy godmother called Daniela De Luca who satisfied every wish they had and made that their dreams came true…

Jessica and me wanted to thank you again from deep of our hearts for everything you’ve done that we had our dream wedding. You were very understanding from the beginning until the day of the wedding and still today…;) It didn’t matter if we came up with any changes of plans or additional wishes, you managed it to our best. Since the very first e-mail contact you were always professional and at the same time cordially and close. Especially for Jessica it was always like a very good friend of her is planning our wedding. So she wasn’t afraid to write you all her ideas and images via whatsapp and you always wrote back straightaway. Some times it was stressful to make all the decisions but with your support and routine everything worked out perfectly. Every single guest enjoyed it and said that this wedding was the best wedding (excluded their own wedding of course) they ever were.

Thank you very much, grazie di cuore, “herzlichä Dank” (Swiss German ;))!!! Thanks to you we had a perfect wedding day and we will remember our day forever only with good thoughts! We would recommend every couple to get organized their wedding in Rome with “Dolce Vita Weddings”. 

Without doubt this was one of our best decisions we’ve made. By the way we can tell that we have found a lovely friend in Rome and we will keep in touch with you and hopefully will meet us again in Italy and Switzerland….:)

Grazie mille (we can’t say it enough) and hear us soon!!

Our dream wedding was brought to life and it wouldn’t have been possible without Daniela! 

My husband and I had the privilege of working with Daniela for our destination wedding in July 2023, and we couldn’t have asked for more. From the moment we began planning our wedding to the final farewell, Daniela went above and beyond to ensure every detail of our special day was perfect. If we could, we would relive our wedding day in a heart beat. 

If you’re considering an unforgettable breathtaking destination wedding in Rome and are in need/thinking of a wedding planner who will go above and beyond to bring your vision to life, you have found the one! 

While planning for a destination wedding can be difficult & uncertain when not even knowing where to begin, one of the many things that stood out to us was Daniela’s extensive knowledge of Rome and recommendations of only the best. She was always ready and available to answer any and all questions

What truly sets Daniela apart is her genuine passion for creating such unforgettable moments, and that is exactly what we have- til this day our guests are still talking about the wedding. She is truly the best in the business and surpassed our wildest dreams of having a destination for wedding. 

We can’t thank Daniela enough for making our wedding day absolutely perfect. Her experience, attention to detail, and genuine love made all the difference, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to plan their destination wedding.

Jolly and Victor

from the USA and Philippines
When my fiancé and I began this destination wedding planning process we knew a planner was a must. And we will always be grateful to our wedding planner Daniela! She made our wedding seamless! All we had to do was answer the questions via email and set up a few calls and we had the wedding of our dreams. We were traveling from San Francisco so you can imagine it was a FAR destination wedding to Rome, Italy. Daniela was very timely in her communication regarding various parameters of our wedding (finances, vendor coordination, etc.) and we felt extremely supported by her expertise with wedding planning. Daniela did a great job with organizing contracts, communicating with wedding rehearsal/day of vendors, and finding us various options for vendors. She walked us through every detail and truly made our special day run so smoothly.  You can feel the dedication she puts into her clients and work. Dolce vita weddings will definitely make your dreams come true. A pleasure to work with you Daniela!

Sylvie and Christian

from Germany
For us, Dolce Vita Weddings was a great choice! Daniela helped us to create our dream wedding, while the planning process was fun and stress-free. Her advice was always well-reflected and very helpful in our decision process. She helped us to choose all service providers, who also delivered a very good quality of services and products that were shaped according to our specific wishes. Everything about the venue (lightning, flowers, table settings etc.) ended up looking even more beautiful than we could have imagined. On our wedding day, she made sure that everything ran smoothly so that we could relax and enjoy the ceremony and celebration.

Daniela is a very professional, friendly and enthusiastic wedding planner with a good eye for details. She clearly loves what she is doing, which in our opinion is very important. 

We were certain from the start to be in good hands and to have a wonderful wedding. We were very happy to have chosen Daniela as our wedding planner and highly recommend her to anyone considering marrying in Rome and who would like to have that certain something. 

Thank you once again Daniela!

Victoria & Ian

from the UK
When my wife and I decided to get married in Rome we quickly realised that a wedding planner would be essential. We spoke to several different individuals and companies, both in the UK and in Italy and found Daniela with Dolce Vita Weddings to be the best by far.

Once we started planning the wedding with Daniela it was immediately clear that we’d made the right choice. Daniela says that she offers a bespoke service and that’s exactly what she does; we described what we wanted our wedding to look like and she understood what we meant and gave us exactly what we wanted.

There was no pressure to make the wedding bigger or more expensive and her advice regarding things that we hadn’t thought of and little details that would make the day even better was invaluable. Throughout the whole process Daniela was on hand to answer any of our questions very quickly and guide us through all of the paperwork and Italian bureaucracy, which to an outsider can be daunting but with Daniela it was a breeze. 

Our wedding simply couldn’t have happened without Daniela and I’m confident that nobody else would have done as good of a job as she did, we’re also proud to now count Daniela as a friend and hope to meet up with her and Scot dog for many years to come whenever we visit Rome. If you’re getting married in Rome, speak to Daniela and you won’t regret it!
