Kind Words
From the first enquiry to the last hug goodbye, I’m always aware of what a privilege it is to be trusted with someone’s entire wedding journey. Every couple, every family, every celebration is different and that’s what I love most about this work.
Here you’ll find kind words from couples who chose to plan their destination wedding in Italy with me. They’re honest reflections of what it was like to create their day together, from start to finish.

Our wedding in Sorrento was an absolute dream come true, and we owe it all to Cheryl and Cat at Bella Sposa. From the very first call, they made the planning process smooth, stress-free, and genuinely enjoyable.
Every detail from the flowers to the flow of the day was handled with such care and precision. On the day itself, Cheryl and Cat were everywhere and invisible all at once, managing every moment so we could simply relax and soak it all in.
We’re endlessly grateful for their warmth, professionalism, and the magic they created.

Planning a four-day destination wedding from California could have felt overwhelming, but
Cheryl made every step calm, clear, and joyful. Her honesty, organisation, and creative eye helped us stay true to our vision while keeping everything beautifully on track.
From detailed design boards to flawless vendor coordination, every element reflected us perfectly. Cheryl and her wonderful assistant, Cat, managed our weekend and guests with such care that we were able to relax completely and soak in every
moment.
Our wedding weekend was everything we dreamed of, elegant, heartfelt, and seamless from start to finish. Cheryl truly went above and beyond to create magic for us.

Lydia & Danny
“Above and beyond” doesn’t even begin to describe Cheryl and her incredible team. Planning a three-day celebration in Sorrento from abroad could have been overwhelming, but she made every step seamless, enjoyable, and fun.
From our very first call, Cheryl brought calm, structure, and genuine care. Her attention to detail is unmatched, and her ability to understand us on a personal level made our wedding feel completely our own. She handled everything with patience and perfection, allowing us to be fully present and stress-free throughout the entire weekend.
Our guests adored her too! So many commented on her kindness, professionalism, and the way she made everyone feel so looked after. Cheryl is not only an exceptional planner but also a truly wonderful person, and we’ll be forever grateful that she was by our side.
Molly & Patrick
Cheryl didn’t just plan our wedding; she brought our dreams to life. From the start, she intuitively understood our vision and guided us with care, never pressuring us and always keeping our budget in mind. We joke that she is the Mayor of Sorrento, given how well-connected she is.
Her attention to detail, warmth, and incredible connections made everything run perfectly. Guests told us it was the best wedding they’d ever attended, and many gave Cheryl personal shout-outs. What began as a professional relationship has become a lasting friendship.
Gabriella & Tim
We can’t thank Cheryl and her team enough for
making our wedding absolutely perfect. From the start, they were organised, thoughtful, and incredibly attentive, anticipating our needs and making the entire experience effortless, even from across the ocean.
On the day itself, everything ran flawlessly. Every vendor was perfectly coordinated, every detail beautifully executed, and we were able to simply relax and enjoy every moment. Our guests are still talking about how seamless and stunning it all was.
Cheryl combines creativity, professionalism, and genuine warmth the perfect planner for anyone dreaming of a stress-free wedding in Italy.
