Italy Wedding Planner – Work with the Best
I think my wife is the best Italy wedding planner!
On my website, I feature many weddings that were overseen by my colleagues, highly esteemed Italian wedding planners. However, I am also proud to showcase my wife’s wedding planning company:
I am an independent professional wedding photographer; however, when working with my wife, we really enjoy planning and designing weddings and events as a team.
She mostly plans weddings in Tuscany, but Lake Como and the Amalfi Coast are also popular destinations. She orchestrates luxury weddings from start to finish, and I photograph them.
We prefer to work with clients that prioritize photography and, like ourselves, are people that enjoy the details as much as the more significant aspects. We love creating unique experiences rather than cookie-cutter weddings.
Are you looking to make the planning process as easy as possible? Then you need an expert to help you. We combine our years of experience to guarantee you a perfect special day that’s totally stress-free.
The weddings at the bottom of this page are all examples of our work.
"I am not a fan of images that are pale, hazy, blurry interpretations of reality. If the sky is blue, then it should be blue, not white."
Experience And Passion – A Winning Combination
Over the years, I have worked with the best wedding planners in Italy. I have found that you should try to have your wedding photographer and wedding planning service work together. This partnership will assist you in finding the best wedding locations, as well as help with the timings, schedules, and lighting (crucial for the photography) throughout your entire wedding day.
If you want a recommendation for a great planner, ask me. I am happy to suggest one of my excellent colleagues. Or why not try our own comprehensive event planning service? You will love working with a husband and wife photography and concierge event planning team!
Choose a reputable wedding planning service and enjoy one of the happiest days of your life even more! Leave the worrying behind and hire a professional. Take the stress out of your big day.
Tips To Choose A Top Italian Wedding Planner
A top Italian wedding planner will make your wedding an unforgettable and intimate experience for you and your guests. Weddings have countless variables that you need to consider.
The complexities of an Italian wedding can quickly multiply if not kept in check. Because of this, it makes sense to pick an Italian wedding planner with local knowledge about wedding venues, and all the other aspects required to make your special day truly memorable.
- Make sure they have experience with wedding planning! There are plenty of people in the wedding industry that are just starting out. There’s nothing wrong with that, but be aware of who you are talking to.
- Make sure you can communicate effortlessly. No language barriers.
- Make sure they are listening to your ideas and are willing to work with you. Not just telling you what your wedding will be like.
- Watch out for clauses in the contract that oblige you to use their favorite suppliers. There is nothing wrong with this as long as you are aware of it from the start.
- Please don’t choose a planner based on their Instagram profile only. Make sure they have a full body of work for you to review.
- Ask for references.
"I also want to tell the story of your big day with timeless elegance. The photos should not only look great tomorrow but also fifty years from now."

Jules was the first thing I booked for my daughter’s wedding based on the quality of his photos online. I was a little concerned that he might be more used to high end expensive weddings; this may be true, but he did the job exceptionally well and the photos are amazing. I am having difficulty choosing which ones to frame without the house looking like a shrine to the the wedding.
I particularly liked how quickly he did the standard group photos and got on with taking more candid shots. He even took in his stride the fact that we wanted our dog in the photos.
Highly recommended, thanks Jules. - Jules was absolutely fantastic throughout our whole wedding day! Not only did he capture every picture on our list but each shot is gorgeous. Jules was very easy to work with and was exceptionally fast at moving through ........Nicole Dohogne
Jules was absolutely fantastic throughout our whole wedding day! Not only did he capture every picture on our list but each shot is gorgeous. Jules was very easy to work with and was exceptionally fast at moving through our long list of shots.
This meant my husband and I were able to actually enjoy a bit of our cocktail reception post ceremony which was important to us. Jules turned around thousands of images including a spectacular gallery of edited shots much more quickly than I anticipated.
His level of service was amazing and is clearly portrayed in the photos! My only regret is that I didn’t also hire him for the other pre & post wedding day festivities…

For those who are thinking about having a destination wedding or elopement in Italy – please please chose Jules Bower as your professional wedding photographer!
Our big home wedding was cancelled due to COVID 19 and not wanting to plan everything all over again – my husband and I had decided to elope in Italy instead.
I first reached out to Jules via email and he responded right away. I told him what my vision was and he was quick to help us out with providing us with different options in venues and vendors. Everything went so smoothly in planning for our big day!
On our big day – Jules is someone who knows what he wants and he will 150% make sure you are getting thee best! We were literally chasing the sun making sure we got alll the shots possible!
My husband & I are very camera shy and when I got my pictures – I couldn’t be more happy with how everything turned out – our candid shots were our favorite. He was able to capture our relationship to the dot!
We were also surprised with how fast we got our pictures back 🙂 Just in time for the holidays!
If you guys are on the fence of eloping or doing a destination wedding in Italy – let me help you – just DO IT! You won’t regret working with Jules!

Finding Jules might have been best thing that ever happened to us. My fiancé and I wanted to get married in Italy, and we decided to go for it about 8 days in advance.
We found Jules website and were blown away by the quality of his photographs, and we instantly knew he was who we wanted to work with to capture all the special moments on our wedding day. Jules and I emailed back and forth a few times, and he was always quick to respond, and was helpful and honest about everything I needed to know when planning a wedding in a place I had never been to before.
He understood that I was putting a lot of faith in him to guide me through the planning process, and he took that responsibility seriously. I liked him right away because I could feel how important it was to him, that we have the best day of our lives. He really wanted that for us. Jules has amazing contacts all over Italy, so after a few days of getting the basics in place, he brought in Simona (from Happy Brides) to help plan the rest of the details, and together we formed a wedding team that truly changed our lives.
All the way through the planning process I felt cared for and important. This was not just another wedding in a busy schedule for him, but it was an opportunity to help us live out our dream.
I am not someone who loves posing for pictures, and I am not overly comfortable being photographed but Jules made it a really fun experience for me. He was funny, and relaxed, and in control of the situation but always in a way that made me smile and feel like I was able to enjoy the attention. I felt like a celebrity for the day.
I can only speak for myself as the groom, but Jules took the part of the day I was least looking forward to, and made it a fun and memorable experience that I now cherish.
Earlier this week we got out pictures back, and once again we were blown away! After the wedding ceremony we were in a race against time to get as many good shots in good locations as we could before the sun went down. It was so much fun running around and getting in place, and having a special moment just in time to turn and run around somewhere else to do it again.
Again, Jules with his incredible eye for lighting was in control and put us in beautiful spots, and in our pictures I/we are laughing in half of them because it was so comfortable and so much fun. Almost every night this week wife and I have spent hours looking through all of Jules’s work, and the more I look at them, the more I appreciate him.
He is a special photographer, in a special country, and he captured our love and our day with such an amazing eye, I can’t thank him enough. We enjoyed this experience enough where we are already planning on going back to Italy in a few months and plan to call Jules just to hang out socially! We signed up for a wedding photographer and accidentally made a friend.
I recommend him with 100% of me and wish my experience on everyone who reads this.
Thank you for everything Jules! Without you, none of this could have happened. See you again soon my friend!
