All my husband and I can say about Camilla and Marco is that they are so wonderful and accommodating down to the last detail. Our day on 9/14/25 at Villa Field in Positano was nothing short of magical. Everything was perfect and my husband and I keep talking about how much fun that day was. It was so special and spectacular and we could not have asked for anything better. My bouquet was perfect, boutonnière was perfect. The hair and makeup person was amazing and made me look 10 years younger and it was Camilla that suggested her. We can’t wait to see the rest of the photos that Marco took, but the ones we have already are nothing short of fantastic. It was the best, most memorable day we have ever had. I haven’t even mentioned the amazing ceremony with that Camilla performed…we both cried through the whole thing. Cannot say enough about these two. If you’re thinking of doing this, you shouldn’t hesitate to get in touch with Love Gracefully. Loved every minute!! We are so thankful for this amazing day!!

Words can’t express how amazing our experience with Love Gracefully was! We chose Lake Como for our location. Giulia was our planner! We chose the Diamond Package.

She answered all of our questions in a timely manner and went the extra mile to accommodate additional requests and preferences we had.

It was so nice to just show up and have everything ready without dealing with any of the stress that normally comes with wedding planning.

Our day was absolutely beautiful! The boat ride was highly anticipated and it did not disappoint! It was one of my favorite moments of the day!

We were lucky enough to have perfect, sunny, and clear weather on our wedding day (September 4th, 2025, ~75 degrees Fahrenheit).

Our photos were ready within 3 weeks and they are absolutely breathtaking! We couldn’t be happier about them!

We would not change a thing if we were to do it all over again! It was truly the best day of our lives!

Love Gracefully are true experts in curating one-of-a-kind, luxury weddings. From start to finish, every detail was thoughtfully planned with our wishes and needs in mind. They work only with the finest photographers, videographers, boat captains, florists, venues, and hair & makeup artists—no detail is ever spared.

Our dream wedding on Lake Como was everything we had envisioned and more. The Love Gracefully team brought it to life seamlessly, and we will always be so grateful for their dedication, professionalism, and artistry.

Highly recommend to any couple looking to create a once-in-a-lifetime celebration!

I got married using Love Gracefully's services in Lake Como in July 2025. My planner, Eleonora, did everything to make my wedding day special. It was the best day of my life and it wouldn’t have been possible without her hard work and organization. From our first meeting to the actual wedding day, she was an absolute joy and pleasure to work with. Eleonora understood my vision perfectly and brought it to life in a way that exceeded all of my expectations. I’ve received so many compliments from guests on how beautifully everything came together — and that’s thanks to Eleonora and the Love Gracefully team.

Working with Love Gracefully was an absolute dream from start to finish. From our very first meeting, everything was easy, clear, and stress-free. The team made it simple to understand the flow and timeline of our big day, which gave us so much peace of mind leading up to the wedding.

On the day itself, every single person we worked with was professional, thoughtful, and genuinely kind. They made us feel so comfortable and cared for, and everything came together beautifully—we honestly could not be more impressed or happier with the entire experience.

Special thank you to our wedding team:
Alessandra Roma
Nicholas Ferrarese
Aleesandro Galetti
Daniele Gagliardi
Morgana Flori
Mandello Boat Tour

We are beyond grateful for the memories created and captured, and we wouldn’t change a thing. Highly, highly recommend Love Gracefully to anyone looking to celebrate their love in the most heartfelt and seamless way possible.

A small side note (which wasn’t related to the team directly on our wedding day): we didn’t get champagne on the boat tour, though it was listed on the program. But honestly, this was such a minor detail compared to the joy of the day, and it didn’t take away from how wonderful and special everything was.

Thanks again,
Ari & Chelsea

We had the absolute privilege of working with Gabriella from Love Gracefully, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the very beginning, Gabriella brought warmth, professionalism, and creativity to our journey and helped us pull off something truly unforgettable: a surprise wedding in Crete for my now wife.

Coordinating a wedding overseas is no small task, but Gabriella made the entire process seamless and stress-free. She anticipated every detail, guided us with genuine care, and worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure everything flowed perfectly on the day.

One of the highlights was how Gabriella didn’t just plan the wedding she joined in the celebrations. She helped guide and teach traditional Greek customs and dances to our guests, which brought everyone together and made the night even more special. It was such a beautiful touch, especially as my wife’s father is from Greece, making the location and traditions even more meaningful to our families.

Thanks to Gabriella and the Love Gracefully team, our wedding in Crete was beyond anything we could have dreamed of; intimate, emotional, and full of joy. We will be forever grateful to her for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime.

Jeremie made our big day a breeze! We love his work from his Instagram and reached out. He is so easy to work with and a true expert. His recommendations made the photos and day go so much smoother while capturing our most treasured moments into photos that will now last a lifetime. He is professional, passionate, goes over and beyond for his clients, and so fun to be with. I highly recommend Love Gracefully!

Bibiana, and Lorena were absolutely the best to work with. Bibiana was so wonderful and helpful. Bibiana guided me through every detail, and answered every question all the way up to the event. I surprised my wife with renewing our vows in Paris. It was a perfectly planned day. Ali, (Alex) performed our ceremony and he is such a wonderful person. He made the ceremony very special while devoting his time to us that day. I would recommend Love Gracefully to anyone looking for that special occasion. I can't thank them enough for all their guidance, and professionalism. You can put your trust in this team. It is an experience we will never forget.

Our Love Gracefully planner Belinda was exceptionally supportive, very prompt in responding to any questions while making plans and thoughtfully made suggestions that would augment our experience as well as our travel related to the elopement. We were so happy to work with her. All supporting individuals she secured for us provided wonderful service as well ( e.g. driver, photographer). Everyone involved was warm and engaging throughout the experience. Recommendations for ceremony location, flowers, food afterward, etc were all spot on. The ceremony itself was beautifully written based on information we provided through an easy to use online format. We would highly recommend elopement in beautiful Portugal with Belinda and Love Gracefully.

Thank you to Cristina, Grazia, and the rest of the team at Love Gracefully!

From the beginning, Cristina was amazing at planning a very special proposal for my fiancée and me in the gorgeous town of Castelmola, Sicily.

From planning a photoshoot with Grazia, who was incredible, to booking a reservation at the most stunning restaurant in Castelmola, Cristina was an amazing help every step of the way.

It was truly a dream for my fiancée and I, and we could not be happier.
