We wanted our wedding to be one that our friends and family would remember. My favourite part of the wedding day…it’s impossible to decide!! Every part of the day exceeded our expectations – it was like a fairy tale wedding – this absolutely could not have been achieved without our wonderful wedding planner Sara Mazzei from Infinity Weddings and Events®. The church service (organist, trumpeter, opera singer and pianist), the transport, the jazz band, the canapés and drinks reception, the food, the wine, the flowers, the venue, the wedding cheese cake, the cocktails, the sky lanterns and finally the DJ all were all amazing. Really we could not fault any part of our special day. If you are planning a wedding abroad and can afford to do so, invest on a wedding planner. This was by far the best decision we made for our wedding. Read the article >>> Eve and Michael (UK), Tuscany, May 2011

Ciao Barbara,
Thank you so much for arranging an amazing wedding for us. We were nervous about the idea of getting married abroad, but you made it stress-free. More than that, you and your team at Infinity Weddings organised the perfect day in a beautiful part of the world. It was just how we wanted it. Thank you

Dear Barbara, I wanted to write to you to thank you for all the hard work you put into making our wedding day come together.
We had a really magical day and the setting in the end was just perfect. We were very impressed with the catering, the celebrant was fantastic and we very much enjoyed the band.
I wish you all the success in the future.

What hit us was Barbara’s tireless and total dedication. The passion she puts into her work and her availability are two things that reassure and provide a result in line with one’s expectations.

How do I even begin to find the words to let you know how much more special you made my wedding day Barbara?! I think I called you with only 4 months till the wedding day, completely stressed out and worried the wedding would be too difficult to make happen. After our first "meeting" on Skype I felt so much better, you took over all the work without excluding me from any the decision making. You are so organized and thoughtful, the added touches you suggested for my day made it perfect. After we started working together, I was able to enjoy the planning and preparation for my wedding instead of worrying if everything would get done. That right there, is the biggest gift, because I love my memories of planning for my wedding in Italy. You were always available to me, via email or Skype when I had an "urgent" question and most importantly you helped me with the answers. You just made everything run so smoothly....and along the way of planning my wedding we became friends, another cherished memory. Thank you for your professional help, your personal touches and your friendship. When we are back in Italy a visit to you will definitely be part of our plans!

Sara, we do not know where to begin in thanking you for the most beautiful wedding you organised for us. From the moment we met you we immediately warmed to you and felt so comfortable and at ease. We knew straight away that we wanted to work together with you as you treated us like old friends and made us feel so relaxed. Your passion for what you do shines through and we feel so lucky to have found you. We simply could not have organised such a special day without you! We could not have imagined the wedding to be so perfect from start to finish but it truly was a fairy tale. All of our guests have said how wonderful it all was and could not believe how magical everything turned out. I do not think anyone had been to a wedding quite like it. The attention to detail was fantastic and everything ran so smoothly. As the bride I did no have to worry about any of the organising on the day and that was amazing. You were always there to help and reassure us and took care of all the guests needs, from answering questions to organising their transport!! When we came to visit those few times we had such a lovely time with you and that made it easy to work so closely with you. It is rare to find someone like you and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Our wedding was an absolute dream and we loved every second. It was incredible and the food was to die for! We will definitely be recommending your services to any friends who are considering marrying in Italy! Sara, once again thank you so much for making our special day more amazing than we ever hoped. We will never forget the memories we made that day and we wish we could do it all again. Please give a big hug and kiss to our hosts as they too were amazing and we won't forget them. Along with yourself they were the best hosts we have ever come across and also made us feel like family. If you ever come to London please call us as we would love to show you around!

As soon as David and I met Barbara’s assistant in Rome I felt much more at ease and felt like I was in good hands! The next day I met Barbara and our initial feelings were confirmed, I felt comfortable and assured immediately. Barbara has an amazing warmth and I found her presence on the days leading up to the wedding and the 'big day' invaluable. Barbara's customer service is second to none, I cannot more highly recommend Barbara and her team. I hope everyone uses Barbara because you (hopefully) only get one shot at this and Barbara made my day relaxed and perfect!! Thank you Barbara.

If you decide to make Tuscany the destination of your wedding, please call Barbara Calo. I was pleasantly surprised by her sincerity and professionalism. One might think that language barriers may have been an issue while planning a wedding in a different country. However the quality of her staff and service and ability to communicate with us and different vendors was never an issue. She was always available, always responded to our emails and questions, and always gave us the most accurate and thoughtful answers. She was always there to aleviate the stress. If there was ever anything that we needed help with, we knew Barbara could do the job. Over a span of a year, we got to do all of the fun wedding planning activities together… collaboration with florists, menu and wine tastings, visiting cake shops in Florence, deciding on table decorations, doing dress alterations, shoe shopping, etc. Everytime we went back to plan we would stay for at least a week, and would get to meet with Barbara enjoying the lovely scenery and would dream about what the big day would finally be like. She was always as enthusiastic as us, always hopeful, positive and confident that our wedding day would be the best wedding in history…and it was just that ! I do have to admit, there were many stress-filled moments where I thought « Why in the world did we ever decide to have our wedding in Tuscany ? Why couldn’t we have had it here, close to home ? » After I would write Barbara an email, and would think to myself that having a wedding in Tuscany isn’t the worst thing that could have happened to us. Barbara’s help proved to be invaluable. My final thoughts, now an month and a half after the wedding, it truly was pure SUCCESS! We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding ! After a year of stressing with the paperwork, decisions and more decisions, we did it ! Our friends and family keep telling us « That was one of the best weddings ever ! » , « What a fairy tale ! », « It was perfect ! » And from friends who will soon be married « It’ll be hard to top that ! » Many thanks to Barbara. Our wedding would not have been what it was without her.

My husband and I would like to say a huge thank you to Sara and her team for making our 'big day' so magical. Sara was so patient with me and my little knowledge of what's needed to plan a wedding and had some fantastic ideas to help me decide on all aspects of it. We had never been to Italy and had never seen the cloisters before the day prior to our wedding but were reassured every step of the way and were made to feel so at ease that it really didn't matter. We couldn't be happier with our choice of location and choice of wedding planner! Sorrento is such a beautiful, romantic place, the scenery is stunning, the people are friendly - I want to move there! Thank you Infinity for making our wedding so perfect! Many thanks and all the best for the future!!

Words can not express how perfect our wedding was in Certaldo on the 29th July 2011, this of course thanks to lovely Barbara. Certaldo is simply a magical place and it will stay in our hearts forever. The palace looked amazing and I would like to thank the officials of Certaldo for allowing us to marry in such a beautiful setting. The day was the intimate wedding we had been dreaming of. Thank you so much.

Michael and I met Sara in October 2010 during a visit to Florence to choose our wedding venue. Sara immediately made us feel comfortable in knowing we could successfully plan a wedding overseas that would realize our dream! She has a very authentic and personable style and offered candid feedback to help us stay true to our vision and help us make the best choices for our wedding. Sara assisted with many areas of the wedding, not just the traditional elements of the day, but worked with us to create hotel and accommodation recommendations for our guests. Our guests also enjoyed working with her on planning their wine tours during their visit, of which everyone thoroughly enjoyed. Overall, Sara is a pleasure to work with and has a keen ability to read her clients style. She works to create a vision that will represent the couple and highlight the celebration of their marriage in a truly unique and beautiful way.

It was with some trepidation that we booked a wedding in Tuscany without visiting the location first. We needn’t have worried because we had Barbara as out Wedding Planner. Barbara is a kind, supportive and professional lady. She dealt with my queries and endless emails promptly and thoroughly, and always made me feel confident that everything was under control. She was very forthcoming with recommending things for the wedding, and giving alternatives if something wasn’t to our taste. We stayed in a spectacular location with great accommodation, a large pool and Villa. Our hosts couldn’t do enough to make our stay as stress-free and perfect as possible. We were married in the town hall, and our reception was on the terrace in the Villa, with dancing in the courtyard. The catering and drinks exceeded our expectations, and all our guests were equally impressed. We were also very happy with the value for money given the quality and quantity of the food and drink. Barbara made sure that every detail of the wedding was taken care of, so we didn’t have to spend time worrying about the arrangements and could get on with having a good time instead. We can not thank everyone that was involved in the planning of our wedding enough. If you are thinking of a wedding in Tuscany don’t hesitate to contact Barbara at Infinity Weddings, you certainly won’t be disappointed!

Sara and her team at Infinity Weddings helped make our wedding day everything we had hoped for. From showing us possible venues to making the day a huge success, Sara was helpful, professional, friendly and highly organised. She has expert local knowledge in sourcing the best suppliers and took care of everything. We can't recommend Infinity weddings highly enough.

Dear Barbara, Jo and I thought we would drop you quick a line about our beautiful wedding in Positano now we have had time for it all to sink in having returned to England. Your team were exemplary in their efforts to find us a venue showing us a myriad of places and providing ideas for our big day. Then when we decided on Positano the location staff were extremely professional in organising and helping with decisions. Your constant correspondence with us on costs and choices was a great help and eased our concerns that every detail was being attended to. The day went like clockwork and all of our guests really enjoyed the service, food and atmosphere that the Location provided. Some explaining it was the best wedding they had been to! We would both like thank you for all the tireless work you and your team put into our wedding plans and I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone and in fact I already have! Keep up the good work and thank you very much.

Barbara, we can't thank you enough for such a memorable occasion. We are so thankful for the pictures as it felt like the entire wedding was over before we knew it, so now we get another chance to see the beauty of the evening. All we've heard from the guests since the wedding was how beautiful everything was and that it was far and away the most stunning wedding they have ever been to. And many of our guests have attended hundreds of weddings, so “complimenti a te!!” We certainly share the same sentiment.It was absolutely beautiful....everything from the flowers to the food to the wine.....”perfetto!”. I hope we get a chance to talk soon and reminisce on such a wonderful event and life long memories! Thanks for making it a unique and extraordinary event. I think one of our friends said it best...."by the end of the night, we were expecting a unicorn to fly in and take you two away....truly magical!" What a great job you have of making such wonderful lifelong memories for people. You have impacted our lives in such an amazing way, and started our journey together with such elegance, passion, and beauty. We are so appreciative, thankful and fortunate to have found you. Keep spreading the love. You do amazing work!
