Laura Semp & Mark Kelly - Ravello wedding on August 24th, 2007

Hi Laura,

As promised I just wanted to thank you for everything you did for us to help plan our wedding!
We received the photos on Friday and spent all weekend looking through them and boring everyone we possibly could with them!

Everything about our wedding was perfect! And our meal the night before at The Hotel Garden rivaled the food at the reception the next day - all the staff were wonderfully helpful too - it totally exceeded all of my expectations but it set a very high standard for the wedding - but of course that was more than exceeded also!

Every single person who was involved in the wedding was just wonderful.

Mark and I won't ever be able to thank you enough for recommending our absolutely superb videographer - although he was more expensive than everyone else it was worth every euro and we would pay it all over again - because the finished result was truly fantastic. The demo that you get in addition to the video makes people cry every time!

The Town Hall was beautiful - the flowers were so very pretty, I loved the petals on the floor and on the columns at the entrance and over the doorway. And as for the Major and Anna who could have asked for 2 more charismatic people to be part of such a special day. They were both truly wonderful and made our day even more special!

As for our reception venue there are no words to describe the beauty of this Italian gem - we know it wasn't initially our first choice of venue but on your recommendation we opted for it, and once there nothing prepares you for the sheer exquisiteness of the surroundings - the photographs on the website don't do it justice, you have to experience the ambience for yourself. All our guests have said to us that they cannot describe to people how stunningly beautiful our wedding was because there are no words fitting - everyone's description is that you just had to be there! We feel honored and privileged to have been able to have our wedding in such an idyllic and heavenly setting. It truly is a magical place.

There is nothing to fault about the reception or ceremony everything you recommended to us was perfect, and the whole day ran like clock work and flowed beautifully! And I wouldn't have done without the Mandolin and Guitar accompanying us from the Town Hall all the way onto the belvedere terrace! They were such good fun and made everyone laugh!

I also just have to say how incredibly amazed I was at the wedding cakes - I really didn't think the cakes would be such an identical match to the pictures I sent I was gob smacked when I saw them! My only regret is I didn't get to eat enough! But then the food had been so wonderful I didn't have any room left!

In the evening the band and Francesca just topped off an absolutely superb day - I was unsure about how good Francesca would be but she blew me away she had an amazingly powerful voice and I don't think I left the dance floor once! The band were also perfect for the venue - and everyone remembers you and Mark having a boogie on the dance floor! In fact everyone keeps saying what a great dancer you are!

When you speak to everyone again would you personally thank everyone who was involved in making our wedding day so truly spectacular - All the staff at the Hotel Garden, Paula at Villa Cimbrone, Massimo, Andrea, Anna and all the members of the band and the guitar and mandolin players.

Finally Laura - what can we say, there is no way to show you how truly grateful we are to you. Getting married is such an important moment in any person's life if not the most important, and you made it so perfect for us in everyway. For that we will be indebted to you forever more - thank you for making our wedding everything we dreamed of and more.

Lots of love and best wishes especially for your impending new arrival!

Laura and Mark Kelly
