Taormina Weddings

Consigliatissimo

Mariangela definitely knows how to plan a gorgeous wedding! I feel like her and I had been communicating via email for almost a year picking out everything and discussing financials. She made everything SO much easier for our wedding in Sicily. Without her - this just wouldn’t have been possible to the degree that I wanted things. She knows some great vendors that are very talented and well known in the area. I found her by searching an IG tag of "Taormina wedding planners" and saw there was a girl located in Nashville (where I live) who used her. I messaged this girl asking about her experience and she absolutely raved about Mariangela’s talents and how much she highly recommended her. And I found out first handedly that she was exactly right! My wedding was the most beautiful wedding I’ve ever been to and a big chunk of that goes to Mariangela. She attended my welcome dinner and made sure everything went well. She was SO highly involved during the wedding especially after it rained. And at our farewell brunch she brought left over flowers from our wedding to display for our guests. It all was so sweet and truly made an impact on our days celebrating. If you are planning a wedding in Taormina you should go with Mariangela. She’s the person you need to make the absolute best wedding experience.

We can’t thank Taormina Weddings and our wonderful planner Mariangela enough for helping us create the most incredible wedding day in Taormina on June 6th, 2025. From the very beginning, she guided us through every detail with calm professionalism and genuine care. Her local knowledge of Taormina was outstanding; she knew exactly how to bring our vision to life and handled every bit of coordination and logistics flawlessly. We trusted her completely, and thanks to her, we were able to truly relax and enjoy our day knowing everything was in the best hands. We first met Mariangela a year before our wedding and quickly built a lovely rapport; by the time the big day arrived, it felt like working with a dear friend. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, and next time we visit Taormina, we’ll be sure to say hello; because we didn’t just gain a planner, we gained a friend. Grazie mille, Mariangela. YOU made our dream wedding a reality! ✨ Anthony & Chelsey

Working with Mariangela as my wedding planner was truly the best decision I could have ever made. From the very beginning, she impressed me with her professionalism, her deep knowledge of the industry, and her incredible eye for detail. She didn’t just plan a wedding—she created an experience that was beyond anything I could have ever imagined. Every step of the process felt seamless because of her guidance. She anticipated my needs before I even voiced them, offered solutions I never would have thought of, and always made me feel supported and at ease. Her ability to blend creativity with flawless organization is a rare gift, and it showed in every single detail of my wedding day. The result was a celebration more beautiful and magical than my wildest dreams. Everything flowed perfectly, from the ceremony to the reception, and it was all because of her dedication and expertise. Guests are still telling me how breath taking and memorable it was—and I know it wouldn’t have been possible without her. Beyond her talent and professionalism, Mariangela became such a comforting and reassuring presence in my life throughout this journey. Now that the wedding is over, I will truly miss working with her. She is more than a planner—she’s a dream-maker, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Choosing Mariangela as our wedding planner was one of the greatest blessings of our wedding day. My husband and I decided to have a very intimate ceremony, just the two of us, and having Mariangela by our side made it even more meaningful than we could have imagined. She wasn’t just our planner… she was our witness. That alone says everything. She gently helped me place my veil before I stepped into one of the most sacred moments of my life. She carefully pinned my husband’s boutonnière with such care and intention. She stood beside us as we exchanged our vows, present for every emotional, unforgettable second. Beyond the ceremony itself, she went above and beyond in every way. She connected us with the most incredible photographers, Max & Nunzia, who captured our day so beautifully. She recommended amazing restaurants throughout our stay in Taormina and truly elevated our entire experience. She also guided us through all of the legal steps and handled everything needed to ensure our marriage was properly legalized in Canada, which gave us so much peace of mind. Mariangela became so much more than someone organizing details, she became family. Her calm presence, warmth, and genuine love made us feel safe, supported, and completely at peace. There was no stress, only emotion and intention. She showed up for us not only professionally, but personally. And that is something we will cherish forever. Mariangela will always hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you for everything, we will be forever grateful! If you are looking for someone who brings heart, soul, elegance, and deep care into her work, Mariangela is truly one of a kind.

Our experience with Mariangela was absolutely the best. Everything about it was positive. We have been in contact with her for one year and half. All this time she showed her professionalism but also a human side which makes her so special. She loves her job and she does everything she can in her power (and more) to make you feel comfortable and create the wedding of your dreams. She’s very patient and so competent in her job. Now that our wedding is over we know that we will miss her in our lives, and we will definitely be back to visit her. She knows all the best people to work together as a team to deliver the best wedding (Make-up artist, photographers/video makers, florist etc..) You can 100% rely on her on everything. She’s absolutely THE BEST. Every guest at the wedding kept sending us messages to say how perfect the wedding day was. You can’t find anyone better than her. Love to you Mariangela!

Choosing Mariangela and Taormina Weddings was hands down the BEST decision my husband and I could have ever made planning our destination wedding. In working with us, Mariangela took on no small feat. We had a larger destination wedding of about 120 guests, coming in from all areas of the USA and Italy. I didn’t know where to start this arduous feat of planning a wedding from afar (site unseen), but Mariangela was very organized and diligent, leaving no stone unturned and thinking of everything. Over the next few months she helped us immensely and made the process seamless, and dare I say, enjoyable! After our initial zoom meeting, Mariangela had so many helpful suggestions as to next steps and how to accomplish our vision for our wedding. It felt like a weight had been lifted, and we knew immediately we had made the right choice in picking her as our wedding planner. Another wonderful factor in our decision was that my husband did not speak Italian proficiently, but thankfully, Mariangela’s perfect English made the process so easy for him to be involved as well. About 10 months before the wedding, we took a trip to Taormina for partly business, partly pleasure. Although she had events she was actively hosting, Mariangela still found time to meet with us every day to ensure we had all the support we needed (ie accompanying us or actually driving us to the various venues, the florist, hair and makeup trials, setting up an engagement photoshoot etc). It was invaluable to have someone with boots on the ground and personal relationships with local vendors to continue organizing things when we returned to our busy life in the States. Those following few months, Mariangela helped us with countless details, ie giving us ideas and handling the ordering of the favors, setting up the rehearsal dinner pizza night and even a last minute idea for a lovely pre-wedding winery trip, organizing a bus for 40+ people. She also took it upon herself to help our guests organize their own airport transfer, hotel accommodations, and excursions while visiting the area as well. When we returned to Taormina a few days before the wedding, Mariangela did not skip a beat. She had recommended a beautiful hotel to accommodate my closest family and friends, and I still have fond memories of her coming over to help us stuff the welcome bags for guests the night prior to everyone arriving! The day of went so smoothly thanks to her taking charge, and it truly was beyond anything I could have imagined. Two years later our guests are still raving about the "best wedding they’ve ever been to", due in no small part to Mariangela, who was somehow able to elevate an already magical place in Taormina to something even more special. Although it sounds cliche, Mariangela is not just a talented and dedicated wedding planner, but she feels to us now like a member of the our family. We still keep in touch and can’t wait to take our son back to see the place where we had the wedding of our dreams. Mariangela made that happen, and for that, we are forever grateful.
