The Big Event - Wedding and special event planners

Description

“How do we find the right  wedding organisers ? There are so many, but who does things differently? We don’t want to be offered standard packages,  the same wedding with just a different name on the contract! Get us somebody ELSE! who likes to be creative, and we don’t mean who is just great with a whacking big budget, we mean someone who can be clever with the budget and  who offers the unusual rather than the usual. Bring us inspiration, passion, creativity and honesty! Tall order huh!!”
That’s were The Big Event comes in!!!!!!!
So what you really need to know is how we can help you, how we can make your wedding extraordinary, and what our existing clients say about their experience of working with The Big Event.  Weddings at distance are never easy, sometimes with a different language, culture, work ethic etc.  We know from our own experience when selecting international partners, that what you might see on a website is not necessarily what you get in a real life, so choose your partners with care! 
“So why are The Big Event winning these high profile contracts?” Because we are totally passionate about what we do and if we think we can’t do a wonderful job for you, then we don’t take it on.  Everyone likes to earn money, us included, but the real satisfaction of doing an AMAZING job is really important to us, which we achieve together with you our clients, our very experienced team and our faithful, talented suppliers.
Our focus is  to offer you an exceptional level of service and to organise for you the most wonderful  wedding, keeping it simple and elegant with a very relaxed feeling to the day. Based on the strong supplier relationships that we have established, we will negotiate for you the best prices, service and quality products available and will ensure that only professional and expert suppliers are hired.

MUSIC

Having  formerly worked in the music industry for many years, we love to put our experience to good use and organise the music and entertainment  for your wedding .Budget and location tend to dictate the level that we can suggest to you, so for this reason we have a great choice of musicians from the very affordable to international household names. 

WEDDING TESTIMONIALS

Villa Fontelunga
Hi Rosie
We are back to real life and reality and wish we could turn back the hands of time to our wedding week.  I can't find the words to thank you enough for the best week of our lives. It was magical! Everything was executed with such elegance, care, and attention to every detail there was nothing over looked. All the events exceeded both Michael and my expectations. Please thank everyone who worked on the events. You and your team are absolutely the best!
We were also wondering if we could have the names of the wines served at all the events. Our guests said the wine and food was spectacular and all the credit goes to you! With much love

Hi Rosie,
wanted to thank you again for an amazing wedding.  Everything exceeded our expectations and was so well organized.  All our friends and family are still raving about the “wedding of the century”.  It was a dream wedding for me and Brian, to say the least.  We so appreciate all the hard work you and your team put into it.  
Thanks again
Katie and Brian (Los Angeles)

Il Falconiere Cortona
Dear Big Event, we cannot thank you enough for all your help in making our day so special and perfect, your guidance, advice and support with selecting the venue, flowers and music gave us and our guests a fabulous day to remember. With your attention to detail on the day everything ran smoothly. Even the sudden changes of plan caused by rain, appeared seamless to us, and dare I say it, made the day even better. The atmosphere created by the vaulted room, candles, good food and above all the most beautiful music and singing, made the evening so much more special than
we had imagined possible, we just wish it could have gone on for longer.
Our brief of Simple, Elegant and Wow, was exceeded far beyond on our expectations, thank you so much.

Cortona
Let it be said that even though you’re one of many wedding planners in Cortona, you stood out above the rest and won over our hearts. We engaged Rosie McGrath-Panchini from The Big Event to help us plan our son’s wedding in Cortona. Within one week we had the arrangements made for the restaurants, wine, flowers, music, interpreter (Rosie,) photographer, and even the beauty salon. She was very helpful and thorough with the “matrimonio” paperwork so if you want personal service directed toward your individual needs or for suggestions based on experience, she is a gem and we couldn’t have completed the wedding without their expert services.

Castello di Vincigliata Florence
We can only describe our wedding day as magical! It truly was everything that we had dreamt of (and more)!
We could not have organised such a brilliant day without the help of Rosie, Isabel and their amazing team of contacts!
The florist, celebrants, photographer and entertainment were of all the highest standard and the catering (wow!) - the fact that our guests are still talking about the incredible food several months later says it all. One of the highlights of our wedding (and there are many), was the singer chosen to perform during our ceremony. Her voice was exceptional and has left us with such beautiful memories of our special day. Thank you Rosie, Isabel and team for doing such a brilliant job!

Dear Rosie and Isabel
Thank you to everyone who worked so hard in order to make the week so enjoyable and such a success.
Rosie McGrath Panchini and Isabel Gavidia were great wedding planners. We really appreciate all their hard work in pulling off such a great event. It would have been impossible to do it without you!
Rosie has a great team of people she works with, who without fail, were all top quality.
Without you we wouldn’t have been able to organise such a fantastic event. It was truly a memorable occasion and will live long in our hearts.
