Out of this world experience with Ionian weddings, their service is amazing, biggest Thankyou to Rachel our wedding planner who was there to answer all my questions and be there to give us all the information we needed. My wedding experience was amazing from start to finish, wish I could do it all over again, would recommend 100%

Wow as the mother of the bride I have to give Ionian Weddings 5 stars. I literally have nothing negative to say about this fabulous company and I would highly recommend them – same for the bride and groom! I was so completely impressed by this wedding company – they sorted the transport, flowers, food, photographs, the most spectacular wedding venues and more…. They made my daughter’s wedding in Sorrento truly special and utterly beautiful. Everything ran smoothly, they took care of everything and nothing was a problem. The whole team were super friendly and did an amazing job! Thank you all so much !

We recently got married in June 2023 at Lemon Terrace Boutique Villa in Sorrento, Italy. When we initially decided to get married abroad, we researched the options and came across Ionian Weddings. It can be daunting putting your faith in a company to plan your wedding but we felt that it would be the least stressful way to plan a wedding in Italy and we are so glad we did! I honestly don’t think we could have planned it on our own and Ionian Weddings made everything easy for us.

We signed up for a package which included the venue, food, drinks packages, flowers, transport for guests (as the venue is outside of Sorrento), musician, limited photography and celebrant. We then added on some extras, for example extra photography, bridal hair, extra drinks and extra flowers. I liked that the prices were very transparent and we could easily budget. There was no pressure at all from Ionian Weddings to add on extras and we could have just gone with the basic package.

Maria was our UK coordinator and she was so helpful answering our many questions and researching things for us if needed. We decided to go for a symbolic wedding to make things easier for us, but they offer a lot of support with the paperwork if you wish to get legally married in Italy.

When we arrived in Italy, we met with Rosaria and Viola, who were the local coordinators. Rosaria is one of the most organised women I have ever met, and had a full itinerary documentation for us to refer to. She was present to welcome our guests for the pre wedding dinner and then on the wedding day itself, she made sure everything was going to plan and prompted us where needed. She took us to visit the florist as well as meet the hotel manager, and the restaurant manager before the wedding events started, so we felt fully confident that everything would go to plan., which it did.

Our wedding day was truly perfect and I really think a lot of it is down to Ionian Weddings amazing staff. If anyone is thinking of getting married in Italy, this venue is just stunning and I would 100% recommend.

I  just want to say the most biggest thank you ever to everyone who has helped to organise a wonderful wedding day for Tom & I.

I would like to especially thank Maria for all her help in the run up to the wedding & helping us to fill in all the forms. She has been amazing and so accommodating with everything including answering all our queries out of hours, she made us feel really important.
I would like to say a special thank you to Valeria – who has just been incredible this entire journey & helped Tom & I through the whole process. She is such a kind and lovely person who made the organisation of the wedding so easy. I have truly loved working so closely with her.
The wedding day was just magical and all the staff at Villa Sea View Villa were spectacular, Mikhal and Claudia were just fantastic and helped myself and Tom tremendously but also all the guests. The band were also absolutely fabulous and we all had an amazing time.
The pre-wedding at Foreigners Club was fantastic too.
I couldn’t recommend you and your team enough.
Thank you again for all your hard work in making a fantastic day.

We booked our wedding with Ionian way back in November 2021 for the wedding date of 30th June 2023. We have just had our amazing day in Sorrento and it was absolutely incredible! This was largely down to the professionalism and organisation of the team at Ionian.

Our first discussions around the wedding happened with Patricia. She was super helpful and prompt with her email responses. She discussed our options in depth with us and helped us choose our perfect venues of the Cloisters and Hidden Hillside Gem. She answered all our questions and once we had booked the date, we were kindly given the help of Lindsay.

Lindsay was an absolute star the whole way through the planning process, any question I had was answered promptly and professionally. Even when we hit a couple of issues with documentation in the UK, Lindsay was there to quickly put our mind at ease and do everything in her power to make sure our wedding went smoothly and as planned. I was kept updated and informed throughout the whole process.

Once we landed in Sorrento, we then had the wonderful Viola and Anna helping us to organise the day. Viola messaged me the day after we arrived in Sorrento and arranged a face-to-face meeting 4 days before the wedding. Viola talked us through what would happen on the day and took us to the cloisters, Hidden Hillside Gem, the Florist and to meet the photographer. Everything was so well organised, and nothing was too much trouble to arrange. Both venues are also completely out of this world, utterly beautiful! We were blown away!

On the wedding day Viola and Anna were with us during the ceremony at the cloisters and they both organised the entire bridal party excellently. I was so nervous arriving at the cloisters but both Viola and Anna kept me calm! Viola translated the ceremony into English too, a woman of many talents!

Once at the Hidden Hillside Gem we had the help of the incredible Silvana. Silvana had previously discussed with us how the reception would run and what to expect. She also tailored our drinks package completely to our wishes. On arrival, the decoration of the venue was so gorgeous. I had previously brought a few things (guest book, seating plan, photo frames) and Silvana and her team had arranged them beautifully and added their own decorations and flowers to compliment which was completely amazing! Throughout the evening Silvana organised us and ensured we were kept updated. She and her team kept the afternoon and evening running so smoothly.

I honestly don’t feel like I have enough words to thank the team I had at Ionian (hence why this review is so long!) The whole wedding planning process was a dream and it’s all down to them! It was the most incredible day of our lives and I would 100% recommend Ionian if you’re looking for an unforgettable, stress free, destination wedding.

Best wedding planners ever.
I would like to thank Ionian weddings for making our wedding in Sorrento perfect.
Communication was brilliant throughout the process. We had Lindsay as our planner in the UK and she went above and beyond for us. She was always good at getting back to us with requests and helped us throughout.

We met up with Antonella initially in Sorrento when we went for our walk around and she explained everything from where the venues where to meeting our florist to even recommending where to get pictures taken.

When it came to the wedding we had Viola who planned it and she was just amazing. She kept in touch, helped us with everything we needed. Went above and beyond to arrange everything and made our day look and feel perfect. All the small and bigger details where taken care of thanks to her. The flowers where just beautiful and even though we had rain the full week before she put us at ease and thankfully turned out beautiful on the day of.
If anyone is wondering if they need a planner then choose this company, no stress, no hassle just made out day unforgettable.

Wow wow wow, we had such an amazing experience from first meeting with Ionian to our actual day and then the follow up after.. literally THANK YOU..
Maria was our UK planner and Viola we met in Italy, both were very through and our day went so smoothly, I literally have no complaints and wish we could do it all again. They responded to every email, quickly, kept my nerves at bay and made sure nothing had been forgotten.
Rosaria was our celebrant who literally kept us in check during the service.. From the little details to the bigger items they have been amazing. Thank you all for everything – Mr & Mrs Jaggard 💕

Ionian Weddings – Fantastic Wedding Planners

I would like to say a massive thank you to Maria and the team at Ionian weddings. They have been such a massive help to us from the start of the wedding planning process right to the end. Marta and the in resort team were amazing. They went above and beyond to make our day perfect. All my worries and queries were answered and seen to right away. Customer service is absolutely brilliant and I would definitely recommend any future couples looking to get married abroad to do so with Ionian Weddings. Thanks for making our dreams become reality.

Dear Rachel,
