Italy Destination Wedding Planner
Ciao! I'm Federica Tamborini, founder of Joy Wedding, and an Italy destination wedding planner specializing in bespoke and elegant weddings for US and international couples dreaming of getting married in Italy.
I personally guide couples from the USA and abroad through every step of planning a destination wedding in Italy, from venue selection and design to full coordination across Italy’s most beautiful regions.
Your Italy Wedding Planner
If you are a US or international couple planning a wedding in Italy, and you dream of a refined, authentic and highly curated celebration, you are in the right place.
As an Italy destination wedding planner, I specialize in weddings across Le Marche, Romagna, Umbria and Abruzzo, offering a tailored planning experience designed around your vision, your style and your story. Wherever you choose to get married in Italy, I will be by your side to create a truly bespoke wedding experience.

MY SERVICES
I offer a range of wedding planning services in Italy, from full destination wedding planning to the coordination of selected aspects of your event.
My role as an Italy destination wedding planner is to guide you through the process with expertise, clarity and intention — not to impose a predefined style or replicate weddings that all look the same.
I work alongside trusted professionals, helping you make informed choices while keeping your vision, values and priorities at the center of every decision. Each service is designed to support a bespoke, authentic and well-planned wedding experience in Italy.
Discover the wedding planning service that best fits your vision.
WORDS FROM INTERNATIONAL COUPLES
Planning a destination wedding in Italy means choosing someone you can truly trust.
Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with US and international couples who entrusted me with planning their wedding in Italy.
Here are a few of their experiences.
David & Emily
Destination Wedding in Umbria, Italy
Australian Couple
From the very first call, we knew Federica was someone special. There was an instant sense of calm, humour, and warmth — the kind of presence you hope for in someone who’s about to help you plan the most meaningful days of your life. What followed was nothing short of extraordinary.
Planning a wedding in Italy from Australia was, at first, completely overwhelming — we had no idea what we were getting into! But from day one, Federica made it feel not only manageable, but exciting, joyful, and totally seamless. She guided us through every decision, brought the perfect vendors on board, and created a celebration that was more beautiful and personal than we could have ever imagined.
Federica planned our three-day wedding celebration with such grace, precision, and genuine care. Every single detail — from logistics to design, from vendor coordination to last-minute curveballs (including an unprecedented thunderstorm) — was handled with incredible thoughtfulness and skill. She is remarkably detail-oriented, but never loses sight of the big picture. She made the complex feel effortless, and always with a smile (and usually a laugh, too!).
Harry & Victoria
Destination Wedding in Le Marche, Italy
UK Couple
Working with Federica was a highlight of our wedding experience. From the moment we met her over a zoom call, we knew that we wanted to work with her. She is incredibly kind and thoughtful, and she immediately put us at ease and made the whole planning process feel exciting rather than overwhelming. One thing that stood out was how committed she was to making sure everything felt just right for us. She was endlessly patient with our indecision, last-minute changes, and evolving ideas, and always met us with enthusiasm and creative solutions. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and she always made it happen.
Throughout the planning, she was incredibly responsive, no matter the time of day or the question, she was there. That kind of reliability was absolutely priceless in the lead-up to a big day. And on the day itself, she was a total star. When unexpected rain threw our schedule off, she handled it with such calm and precision that we hardly noticed a disruption. Everything was flawless, and every detail taken care of so we could just enjoy it all!
Federica helped to make our wedding day more beautiful and magical than we could have expected, it was perfect and we are so grateful to have had her on the journey with us! Thank you so much, we love you ❤️
Philip & Cristina
Destination Wedding in Abruzzo, Italy
US Couple
There aren't enough words to convey what Federica and her team did for us for our dream day.
As an international bride with Italian roots, Federica was able to help us combine the two cultures, communicate with us in both languages clearly (AMAZING!), and delivered an experience that we truly could not have achieved without her.
She is thoughtful, precise, and meticulous in her work - so much of her hard work goes on behind the scenes, but it is so evident that nothing she creates is anything short of magic.
She became a trusted friend and confidant throughout the process and I cannot recommend her more highly to anyone and everyone looking for a wedding planner. I cannot imagine my wedding without Federica and her team, and I cannot express how grateful I am.
For anyone scouring the internet looking for the perfect planner, this is your sign that Federica IS that person - I can say with 100% confidence. THANK YOU FEDE 💛
