From our initial interactions, she was incredibly responsive and attentive to our needs. Throughout the planning process, Ilaria's organizational skills were impeccable; she kept us on track and ensured that every detail was considered. She was always willing to go the extra mile, like when she persistently negotiated with vendors to get us the best possible deals. What truly set Ilaria apart was her genuine care and consideration. She was always patient and understanding, even when we had to make last-minute changes or had numerous questions. She arranged an outdoor tent for us at reasonable costs last minute due to the poorly weather forecast. Her friendly and approachable demeanor made the entire planning process enjoyable, and we felt like we were working with a close friend rather than a vendor. We were particularly impressed by her proactive approach; she anticipated our needs and offered suggestions that we hadn't even considered, like arranging hospitality and staff meals for our photographers and video-makers, and buying our dog treats the morning of our wedding day. Overall, we are incredibly grateful to Ilaria for making our wedding planning experience stress-free and enjoyable. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and warm personality made her an invaluable asset, and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to any couple planning a destination wedding!

From the moment we began planning our wedding, Lara and the Glam Events team proved to be an invaluable part of our journey. Lara was my key point of contact throughout everything. She was the friendly face I met on my very first consultation call and the last face I saw before I walked down the aisle. From the moment I met her over video chat, I threw away all the other planner names that I saved and knew that she was the one for me. Her warmth from the very beginning was evident. Her organization and patience throughout the entire process were nothing short of remarkable. She truly understood my concerns and, while all of our vendors were wonderful (thanks to her connections and recommendations) she always made sure my voice was heard and my vision was protected. It was clear from the start that she cared about my wedding as if it were her own. Despite juggling numerous other weddings, she always made me feel like I had her full attention and that somehow I was her only bride. Her responsiveness was impeccable—never once did she miss a beat, and every email or message was met with the warmest and friendliest response. Lara's knowledge and connections within the industry were evident through her fantastic vendor recommendations, all of which exceeded our expectations. I must also mention the stunning graphic designs that the glam events team dreamt up for our wedding table, which were more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. Lara and her design team truly brought my dream to life. On the wedding day itself, Lara and her incredible team at Glam Events went above and beyond in every way imaginable. Raisa and Martina, who assisted during the event, ensured that every guest was well taken care of, anticipating needs before they even arose. One moment that stands out was when Lara noticed a guest with a sunburn—she immediately offered her cream to help, a gesture that perfectly encapsulates her thoughtfulness and dedication to the comfort of not only the bride and groom, but of every wedding guest. And when a group of guests decided to jump into the pool fully clothed during the after-party, Lara and her team were miraculously prepared with towels when we were ready to come out. Their attention to detail was astonishing; nothing escaped their notice. The entire wedding day ran so smoothly that guests are still talking about it, praising the seamless organization and flawless execution. Lara made sure my husband and I could enjoy every moment without a worry in the world. She whisked us from one part of the event to the next, making sure we fully experienced the joy of the day. I truly felt like a queen at my wedding, thanks to Lara and the Glam Events team. I went into this journey with a wedding planner and left with a lifelong friend. Thank you, Lara, and the entire Glam Events team, for making my wedding day everything I dreamed of and more. But more importantly, for making the planning process entire stress free and enjoyable Rachel Reed2024-08-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the moment we met Lara on FaceTime, she made us feel like we were friends for a lifetime. She made everything so easy, so effortless, and communicated the whole time with us. We planned the wedding slowly for two years with Lara and are so pleased with how it all turned out. Every vendor she recommended went above and beyond, not one thing was wrong the day of the wedding. We cannot be more happy of how our three day wedding weekend went. Thank you so much Lara & team. You made our wedding so special and even more than we dreamed. Rachel & Jeryl Alice Holtham2024-08-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were recommended Glam Events once we picked our wedding venue in Tuscany, and as soon as we spoke to Lara we knew we wanted to work with her. She was incredibly professional and from start to finish was kind, accommodating, and made sure everything ran smoothly. The team have a superb contact list to help you find all of your suppliers, and offer honest and practical advice. We wouldn’t have been able to do it without Lara and her amazing team, and cant recommend them enough! Olivia Szczerba2024-08-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Where do I begin! Lara and her team at Glam Events were top notch from the start. Fun to work with, always professional, positive and upbeat, organized, creative, and respectful of budgets and vision. She never made our requests feel impossible or difficult. She went above and beyond. We were working with her from the US but that was no problem -- she assisted us exceptionally throughout the whole process. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Glam Events is THE top choice - look no further! Scott Matthews2024-08-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best wedding planner ever!

She made our wedding day so special and my wife loves her more than me now... lol Thank you for everything Lara, we can't wait to plan another party with you! Honest Reviews2024-08-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you're looking for the perfect wedding then you MUST use Glam Events. Ilaria was recommended to us for our destination wedding and she was AMAZING from start to finish. Nothing was ever too much trouble. From what’s app messages to email to video calls, she was always on hand. We first met in April 2023 for a venue scouting weekend and Ilaria’s suggestions were brilliant. She listened to our requirements and made some great venue recommendations. With our venue chosen and date set for July 2024, we then returned in April 2024 for a fabulous weekend of food and wine tasting, hair and make up trial and meeting vendors to make final choices. With so many decisions to make, you could easily feel overwhelmed, but with Ilaria by your side she makes the whole process really enjoyable. We had a three day event with children present and the whole occasion ran so smoothly and to absolute perfection. I cannot express how grateful we are to her for orchestrating the best and most memorable weekend of our lives. One thing I learnt from this experience is that you must trust the process and Ilaria is always right! I cannot fault the service we received and it was 100% the best money we’ve spent. You won’t be disappointed. Marc-André Tondelli2024-03-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We truly had the wedding of our dreams in Italy. The reason why the dream did come true, was 100% Ilaria. commitment and experience ensured that (it's hard to believe) nothing went wrong during the wedding. During the preparations, Ilaria always kept the big picture and still had a sense for details. During the wedding we were able to sit back and enjoy the party while Ilaria managed everything perfectly in the background. We will recommend Ilaria to everyone and thank her for an unforgettable experience. Grace Lam2024-03-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our wedding in Tuscany in October of 2023 wouldn't have been half as magical but for the incredible effort of Lara. In just under 10 months, she helped create an event that was absolutely perfect and way beyond what our imaginations could have conjured up alone. As we regularly reminisce about this most special moment in our lives, we find we’re always thinking of Lara too and just how grateful we are to have had her by our side for the experience. After initially trying to do it all ourselves and plan an intimate destination wedding all the way from Los Angeles, we realized that we needed the help of a local planner. Lara came highly recommended through a colleague whose son was using her for their gala wedding in Tuscany as well (we heard only amazing things from them after their affair). She suggested an introductory Facetime call and we immediately knew she was the consummate wedding professional. She was warm, friendly, organized, and spent time really getting to know us and listening to our preferences. We particularly appreciated that Lara wanted to make sure we were mutually a fit, so she suggested a trial run before moving to a contract. This really showed us how much she cares about her clients and always puts their needs for their special day above her own. We started our work together by identifying some options for the villa, which was to serve as both the venue for the ceremony as well as housing for our families. Lara got back to us promptly with a fabulous list of venues, with one that absolutely blew us away. To this day, we’re still stunned and feel so lucky to have found this one villa. We would have never, ever have found it without Lara and her local expertise. From there, we were set. We booked the villa and signed on with Lara for the rest of the planning. Over the following months, Lara guided us through the process of selecting vendors and ironing out all the other details. She was thorough, responsive, and flexible. She was also really intent on helping us find the right providers for everything we needed, and not once did she put any pressure on us to use her connections. Lara even offered to contact vendors that we found on our own via Instagram, which is how we ended up with our amazing photographers (LaTo Photography) and makeup & hair artists (Bezal Makeup). Lara delivered on everything she promised, and advised us on so many little touches that elevated the entire wedding. We met Lara for the first time in person the day before the ceremony and she was as lovely as expected. It was like reuniting with an old friend. During the big day, she was there at every step making sure our vision turned into reality. She was calm, collected, gentle, hardworking, and unshakable. Even when the weather forecast turned out to be less than ideal, she helped us pivot while still maintaining our standards and expectations. Lara is unbelievable at what she does. Overall, working with Lara and Glam Events in Tuscany was an 11/10. Without reservation, we recommend Lara to anyone who wants a planner they can trust to deliver on their vision, and provide expert guidance from beginning to end, all while being a sweet and kind human who exudes positivity along the way. We can’t wait to have another excuse to throw a big party so that we can work with her again.
