Beau and Nadine – 2022

We eloped to Amalfi and we’re lucky enough to have Raf plan everything for us.

He made the process so easy from helping us with vendors to picking a place for dinner.

Raf made us feel comfortable and the entire process was easy.

No matter what questions we asked or changes we wanted to make, he was there to help.

Would 100% recommend Raf, he really made our day so special.

Richard and Jennifer – 2022

We can not recommend Raf highly enough as a wedding planner! He took on our challenging case and made our dream wedding come true – an intimate ceremony in a beautiful and romantic 14^th century church on the Amalfi Coast.

We contacted Raf from the US in May, only 4 months before our wedding date, hoping to have a combined Catholic & Civil ceremony in early September (a very popular time for weddings in Italy). On top of our tight timeline, the Catholic part presented special challenges as one of us was non-Catholic.

Raf delivered above and beyond our expectations. The outcome was so special to us and the process was also wonderful; he clearly loves what he does and is a joy to work with. He made what could have been a very stressful process incredibly easy.

Raf clearly communicated the somewhat daunting paperwork requirements upfront and assured us that if we followed his instructions carefully, we could accomplish our goals. He was responsive, supportive and an excellent problem solver throughout the process. When we struggled to get some needed appointments for the paperwork in Italy, he made them for us and attended some on our behalf. His relationships with local authorities were invaluable and definitely facilitated our process. And he does it all – he even acted as translator for our application filings with the Catholic church and local authorities and during our ceremony (the Priest did the service in Italian). He also arranged for a special priest to do our ceremony who was understanding of our mixed-religion situation and delivered a very meaningful ceremony. And his vendors were also very high quality and reasonably priced; working only from a couple of photos of flowers I liked, his florist created a stunning bouquet that I absolutely loved!

On top of it all, he’s really a good guy! From the moment we first reached out to him to our arrival on the Amalfi coast (where he scooped us up at the train station with a big smile and reassuring hug) we knew we were in great hands!

We are forever indebted to you Raf – Grazie Mille!

Marius and Ernesta – 2022

In short, Mr. Raf was absolutely perfect in every way. From the moment we contacted him to plan our wedding, he was professional, attentive, and incredibly helpful. He took the time to get to know us and understand our vision for our special day, and he worked tirelessly to ensure that every detail was taken care of.

Mr. Raf’s knowledge of the local area and wedding industry was exceptional. He was able to recommend the best vendors for our needs, from florist to caterers and musicians. He also provided us with a range of beautiful venues to choose from, and worked with us to find the perfect location for our ceremony and reception.

Throughout the planning process, Mr. Raf was always available to answer our questions and offer advice. He was patient, kind, and understanding, and he made us feel like we were his top priority at all times.

On the day of the wedding, Mr. Raf was simply amazing. He coordinated every aspect of the event with precision and care, ensuring that everything ran smoothly and seamlessly. He was calm, confident, and in control, which allowed us to relax and enjoy every moment of our special day.

Overall, we cannot recommend Mr. Raf highly enough. He is an exceptional wedding planner who truly goes above and beyond to create the perfect wedding experience for his clients. If you’re planning a wedding in Ravello or anywhere else in Italy, we would highly recommend working with Mr. Raf. He is the best of the best!

Stuart and La Toya – 2019

I cannot express how grateful I am to have had Mr Raf as our wedding planner. My Husband and I are from Sydney, Australia and we were married in Ravello, Italy in August 2019.

Planning an overseas wedding is daunting enough, but as I had no family living in Sydney with me, planning our wedding on my own was even more so. I discovered Mr Raf after reading through several reviews online and it was evident that he came highly recommended by everyone that had worked with him previously. After contacting a few different planner’s I knew immediately that Mr Raf was by far the most thoughtful, caring and truly dedicated planner. I had hundreds upon hundreds of questions throughout the entire process and Mr Raf went above and beyond each time to ensure I was reassured and confident in the process and my decisions. Having never been to Ravello before, and having not seen our wedding location until the day before the wedding it’s safe to say I was a little nervous. The moment my Husband and I met Mr Raf in person ALL of my anxieties and worries disappeared. He is not only a phenomenal wedding planner he is a true gentleman, so kind and warm and calming, exactly what a Bride needs when planning a wedding and more importantly on the actual wedding day. I truly believe that my wedding and the process of planning it would not have been as magical and joyous as it was had I not have found Mr Raf. All of our guests could not speak highly enough of him after the wedding and all guests were blown away with how beautiful our wedding was – all thanks to Mr Raf. He essentially held my hand through every process of planning from the very beginning. I will forever be grateful that Mr Raf was a part of our wedding and I cannot recommend him highly enough to any couples that are looking to be married in Italy.
