First of all - a huge thank you again for everything - believe it or not - everyone is STILL talking about my wedding and I am still coming down to earth. Ciao Sonia How are you? I hope you are winding down now for a break after the wedding season! Anyway - first of all - a huge thank you again for everything - believe it or not - everyone is STILL talking about my wedding and I am still coming down to earth. It was a dreamlike experience - and we were so lucky the boats went - it made such a difference. The church and flowers were beautiful and I had the warmest round of applause from the people at Vernazza when I arrived. It was very special - and Father Jan even rang the bells when we came out and again we had a huge round of applause. All my family and friends were very taken with the location and kept asking me how I'd found it and I just kept telling them that you had found it based on what I had requested. Well done again! It was fantastic - I just hope I haven't ruined the wedding experience for others now given they are still talking about it several weeks later (and having been to other weddings). The string quartet were fantastic and did a brilliant job with the sheet music I sent over. It was very special and when they started to play Danny Boy - a stream of sunlight just came in the window and seemed to light up Darren and I at the front. Loredana was very good and received lots of compliments - it was great to have her there on the day and I'd really like to send her a thank you card if you had her address. The violin and accordion player worked really well because they took it in turns to play much of the music and the accordion player came around and serenaded each table which my guests loved (a real novelty), The violinist got big rounds of applause for some of her Irish melodies - thanks for finding them. The food was amazing and Fabrizio did a brilliant job and the staff were very fast clearing the courses (all 8 of them) and the wedding cake was beautiful. I really cannot think of anything I would change.Once again - many thanks Sonia - I simply cannot express how delighted we still are. It was simply amazing! Let me know if you want me to provide a testimonial etc - I'd be more than happy to recommend your services Best Wishes - Ruth
