We did a destination wedding here in August from the USA. The villa was beyond magical and beautiful, the food was delicious, and everything went perfectly thanks to Ernesto! He was very thorough, accommodating, and answered all of my questions. He even suggested my event coordinator, Barbara who was very creative and helpful! My Italian and American family had a blast.
