Let's Start Planning
Tell Me About Your Italian Wedding.
Every wedding I plan begins with a conversation — and this little questionnaire is the very first step. It helps me understand who you are, what you are dreaming of and how I can help.
Before We Speak
The first hello, on your terms.
Thank you so much for considering Lake Garda Weddings by Dulcie Butterfly. I'm so pleased you're thinking of me to help you create your wedding in Italy.
Before we arrange an initial chat, I'd love to get to know a little more about you, your plans and the wedding you are dreaming of. There's no pressure to have everything worked out — many couples come to me right at the very beginning of their journey.
Relaxed, personal and completely yours.
The questionnaire simply gives me a little insight into what you are looking for, what is important to you and where you are with your plans. When we do speak, it means our conversation can be genuinely useful and personal to you.
What It Covers
Eight gentle sections, no wrong answers.
The questionnaire takes just a few minutes to read through and fill in at your own pace. Here's what you'll be asked.
02
Your Wedding in Italy
The date you have in mind, where in Italy you're hoping to marry, the venue you're dreaming of and the type of ceremony that feels right for you.
- Date or year in mind
- Lake Garda, Tuscany, Como & more
- Civil, symbolic or vow renewal
03
Your Guests
A rough idea of numbers helps me suggest venues and styles that will feel right — from an intimate gathering to a full celebration with everyone you love.
- Number of guests
- Bridesmaids & groomsmen
- Children attending
04
The Wedding You Are Dreaming Of
The style and feeling you'd love — relaxed and intimate, elegant Italian, rustic vineyard or something completely your own. Tell me what matters most and how you want the day to feel.
- Your style
- What matters most
- How it should feel
05
How I Can Help
From full wedding planning to finding your venue, paperwork, flowers, photography, styling, entertainment and on-the-day coordination — tell me which areas you'd love my help with.
- Full planning or selected services
- Venue, paperwork & ceremony
- Flowers, styling & on-the-day
06
Your Wedding Budget
An important one, but there's absolutely no right or wrong answer. I ask so the venues and ideas I suggest are realistic for you from the very beginning — never something beautiful but out of reach.
- Approximate budget
- A little flexibility?
- Or simply seeking advice
07
Where You Are With Planning
How soon you're hoping to book, whether you've spoken to other planners and any quotes you've received so far. This helps me understand where you are and how I can best help.
- Your timeline
- Other planners spoken to
- Quotes received
08
A Little More About You
What made you contact me, what attracted you to my style and anything else you'd like me to know about your family, your plans and the day you're dreaming of.
- Why Lake Garda Weddings
- What drew you in
- Anything else at all
Why I Ask
A few answers makes all the difference.
I personally look after every wedding and only take on a small number each year, because I want to be genuinely hands-on with every couple I work with.
That's why I like to have a good understanding of your plans before we arrange a consultation. It means that when we do speak, I can make our conversation far more useful and personal to you — and you'll come away with real clarity about your next steps.
It's not a test. It's simply the beginning of us getting to know one another.
"There are no right or wrong answers."
Don't worry if you haven't worked everything out yet. Whether you have a clear vision or are only at the very beginning, your answers simply help me understand where you are and how I can best help you create something very special.
Personal, heartfelt wedding planning
