Arcadian Loft Opening Party

Last Tuesday, Jenn and I attended the relaunching party of The Arcadian Court.   1,500 people were invited to celebrate the partnership of The Bay and Oliver & Bonacini’s new venture – the face lift of the historical Arcadian court and the new event space, Arcadian Loft.     It was definitely one of the biggest events in the city and we were pampered with great food, great wine and great entertainment!

Here is the spectacular panoramic view of the Arcadian Loft overseeing the old and new city Hall.

20+ meetings in one day… but make it Puglia! 🇮🇹😂

Day 2 of WEMA B-Treat brought us to the beautiful Masseria Spina, and honestly, what a place to spend the day networking!

So many great conversations with talented wedding professionals, from venue owners and DMCs to photographers, designers and AV specialists.

And of course, we had to squeeze in some delicious Italian food along the way. 🤌

One thing I’ve learned after 20 years in weddings? There’s always something new to discover, and nothing beats meeting the people behind the beautiful places we see online.

New connections, fresh ideas, a few new friends, and so much inspiration to bring back to my couples. 🤎

This is exactly why I love travelling for work!

Puglia is definitely making its way onto my destination wedding favourites list! 👀

Puglia, you keep surprising me! 🇮🇹🛺

Exploring Polignano a Mare by tuk-tuk was such a fun way to discover this beautiful coastal town and experience a different side of Puglia.

From the charming fishing cove of Portalga to the statue of Domenico Modugno, the legendary singer behind Volare, we passed the famous Grotta Palazzese cave restaurant and made our way to the picturesque seaside village of San Vito. 🤍

The coastline, the history, the hidden corners… there’s so much more to Puglia than beautiful wedding venues.

As a destination wedding planner, I love discovering experiences like this that can make a wedding celebration feel even more personal and memorable. A tuk-tuk tour could be the perfect welcome activity for your guests, a relaxed day-after experience, or a fun way to explore together between wedding events.

Because some of the most special destination wedding memories happen beyond the wedding day. ✨

Would you add a tuk-tuk tour to your Puglia wedding weekend? 🛺

A work trip that feels like a little Italian escape. 🇮🇹🫒

Currently in Puglia for WEMA B-Treat, and what an incredible experience it’s been!

From discovering beautiful properties and connecting with wedding professionals from around the world to experiencing the local culture and hospitality firsthand, this is exactly why I love what I do. 🤍

And can we talk about @hotelcalaponte ? The warm contemporary interiors, relaxed atmosphere and my little patio surrounded by olive trees… definitely one of my favourite parts of this stay! 🌿

After 20 years of planning weddings, I still believe there’s no better way to understand a destination than to experience it yourself. It’s these personal discoveries, meaningful connections and little details that inspire the celebrations we create for our clients.

So grateful to be part of @wema.global B-Treat and to everyone who has made this experience so special!

A little networking, a lot of inspiration, and plenty of la dolce vita. ✨

Puglia, you’re making it very hard to leave! 🤎

Some wedding moments deserve a standing ovation… and Vanessa & Mike’s was definitely one of them! 🎭✨

From their theatrical grand entrance to Mike’s EPIC processional surrounded by 18 cold sparklers 🔥 — these two really knew how to make an entrance!

But what makes this wedding even more special is the friendship that came after. From planning their big day to now hanging out over board games… who would’ve thought? 😂🎲❤️

Happy Anniversary, V&M! 🥂 So grateful we got to be part of your celebration and even happier that our paths crossed beyond the wedding day.

Here’s to more love, laughter, and competitive board game nights! 🤍

this one. 🤍🇮🇹

R&K’s Ravello wedding was pure magic — the views, the energy, the people, the love… everything just felt so them.

The kind of wedding that reminds you why destination celebrations are so special: everyone you love, in one unforgettable place, making memories you’ll talk about forever.

Happy 1st anniversary, R&K 🥂
Still smiling thinking about this week.
