Michelle & Keith - Capri Wedding, June 3rd, 2006

Laura, Wedding planner extraordinaire who will always hold a special place in my heart.

I cannot begin to thank Laura enough for everything. From our initial contact I knew I wanted to work with Laura.

Arranging a wedding is hard enough without having to do it in another country, but my visions of the wedding were all made reality and Laura's dedication to our event made me feel like I was the only bride getting married.

We are so happy we picked Capri for the wedding.

It is really the most astounding island with such warm friendly people. We had approx 35 guests for the wedding and these guests did not just stay in one hotel. There were numerous bookings all over the island and despite the constant arrival changes and hotel swaps Laura controlled all the bookings which took so much stress away from me.

We had the vintage red taxi on the island for our wedding car. What fun that was! As my parents, my bridesmaids and I drove down to the Piazzetta to arrive at the Church the atmosphere was indescribable. People cheering everywhere, horns beeping and congratulations being shouted, island folk and tourists genuinely happy for us. The tourists of course love to snap away at seeing a wedding so you really do feel like you are famous. It was an experience in itself never to be forgotten.

We always wanted a church wedding so to have the Evangelic Church on the Via Tragara was fabulous. Such an intimate beautiful church, and of course Laura co-ordinated all the requirements for the ceremony. From the pastor from the mainland who performed the ceremony in Italian and English (which added so much charm to the whole ceremony), what a wonderful man he is too, to the String Quartet who played.

The music was heavenly and touched the hearts of many.

Carlo our photographer was remarkable. I am not one for having photographs taken; in fact it's one of the hardest things for me, but most of the time I did not notice Carlo working away. He managed to blend in well with the guests and get those natural looking shots. A very experienced professional who's portfolio speaks for itself.

Our reception at the Capri Palace was extraordinary. From cocktails on the roof terrace with breathtaking views to the divine meal that was served in the evening. The attention to detail was incredible and all the staff were wonderful providing everyone with exceptional service.

After our many discussions with Laura about music, she recommended a fantastic live band and DJ.
Such talented musicians and being able to transition from the cocktail reception to the meal to the disco went unnoticed.

For each transition we had different styles of music, just perfect.

The flowers were incredible, exactly the colours, styles and flowers we wanted. Even the pomander with pearls I had designed for my youngest daughter was made. Absolutely beautiful. Thanks to Marilena for all her hard work.

This has been quite hard for me to put into words, as words cannot express enough, my emotions also get the better of me (as you may well remember Laura your shoulder was there for me when needed!) but I have wanted to write to you some heart felt words of appreciation.

Laura you are such a warm, positive, helpful individual with a great sense of humour and your professionalism is none like I have ever experienced. My daughters thought you were fantastic and like me they are hard to please!
It was fantastic having you with me through the whole event, right from the rehearsal dinner you arranged for all our guests down to the last minutes of the night of the wedding.

I could always see you making sure everything ran smoothly. Having you there made it complete and I would not of had it any other way.

Every guest has felt such emotion, and commented how magical the wedding was. And for most it was quite overwhelming. The wedding surpassed all expectations.
I am so grateful we all have those memories that will stay with each one of us forever and its all thanks to you Laura.

I am so glad you were there for me always and so supportive. My rock, My friend.

Thankyou
