Winning WPIC Destination Wedding Planner of the Year feels especially meaningful this year. This journey started with my own wedding in Italy 16 years ago. With such a distinguished panel of judges, this recognition carries a quiet weight — one that I hold with deep gratitude.
Behind every destination wedding week abroad is not just design and logistics, but a family making it possible.
To my husband — who holds everything together at home while I travel — and to the grandmas who step in with endless love… this honour belongs to you too.
To my clients: thank you for trusting me with your most intimate celebrations, far from home. To be welcomed into your wedding world abroad is the greatest privilege of my work.
And to my fellow planners and creative partners around the world — your generosity, collaboration, and kindness are what elevate this industry we love.
This award is shared. 🤍

This Lunar New Year was filled with both reunion and arrival —
family and old friends who hold my story,
and new connections just beginning to unfold.
A reminder that life isn’t about choosing between old and new —
it’s about letting them sit at the same table.
So grateful for every circle that continues to grow. 🧧

Trruly honoured to be nominated for the WEMA Circle Awards 🤍
This one feels different.
After years of building celebrations across cultures, borders, and generations, being recognised on a global stage that values integrity, craftsmanship, and intention means more than I can say. No politics. No pay-to-play. Just real work, seen and acknowledged by peers who understand what goes into every detail behind the scenes.
WEMA represents the kind of industry I believe in — inclusive, global, and rooted in respect for both the craft and the people who pour their hearts into it.
Grateful to stand alongside wedding professionals around the world who continue to raise the bar with purpose, care, and authenticity.

Saving this post to end the year of 2025 🥹
From destination weddings across Europe to rooms filled with beauty and celebration, I’m deeply grateful for where this work has taken me. Yet nothing this year moved me more than standing at an event not just as a planner, but as a mother.
Watching my daughter work beside me at the Jiuding Scholarship Foundation Gala—focused, confident, selling 50/50 tickets for a cause, and then speaking in front of 250+ guests—was my proudest moment of the year.
A reminder that the most meaningful events aren’t always the farthest away—they’re the ones that bring your worlds together. 🤍

Closing out 2025 with a full heart ❤️
A year of adventures ✈️, travel 🌍, timelines 📋, and weddings 💍 across cities and borders.
Grateful beyond words 🙏 for the trust of our clients, the support of incredible vendors 🤝, and the friendships 💫 that carried me through every challenge.
Being entrusted with my couples’ most meaningful life moments is something I never take it for granted 🤍
This year stretched my creativity, tested my logistics skills, and pushed me past what I thought was possible — and somehow, I always made it to the other side 💪✨
None of this would be possible without the unwavering love and support of my family 🧑🧑🧒🧒
Wishing everyone a joyful holiday season 🎄✨ and a beautiful start to 2026 🥂
