If you're considering a wedding in Italy, absolutely do it, and absolutely hire Julie Palombaro as your wedding planner! Longer version: We planned our wedding from Canada and travelled with 35 guests to il Borgia Castle and Monteluce countryhouse for three nights. Some highlights: -Julie helped us plan literally everything for the wedding, from menus to flowers to chairs etc etc etc. She's incredibly attentive, enthusiastic, and a delight to work with. She also performed our symbolic ceremony, which was everything we hoped it could be. I continue to receive compliments about the food, locale, service to this day. -Julie also helped us organize buses to and from Rome to carry everyone, rehearsal dinner food delivery to Monteluce countryhouse, a rental car to be delivered to the castle, and a beautiful Tuscany wine tour on the third day for all guests with our own bus. It was absolutely incredible to have such catered service. My husband and I have travelled the world extensively, and we're very impressed with the level of service provided. -the castle itself is the stuff of dreams. It is a genuine relic, and should be respected as such. There are all of the modern amenities, and this history and character of the location will absolutely leave you speechless. Even driving up the long tree lined lane is fabulous. If you're looking for the kind of wedding in Italy where your guests leave in awe and talk about it for years to come, this is your place. I felt like a true princess and will forever treasure our memories at il Borgia.
