Full-Service Wedding Planning
For couples who want every detail managed — from venue selection through to the last dance.

A Different Service
Beyond the Compass
The Compass is expert guidance for couples planning their own wedding. But some couples don't want to plan at all — they want someone to manage everything, from the first venue visit to the final farewell dinner, and they want to enjoy the process without carrying the mental load.
That's what Lauren Portia Events offers. Lauren — the founder of Italian Venues — takes on a select number of full-service weddings each year. End-to-end planning, complete supplier management, on-the-day coordination, and the deep Italy expertise that comes from years of building this platform.
This isn't a product with a fixed price and a set deliverable list. It's a bespoke relationship. Lauren works with each couple individually, and pricing reflects the scope, season, region, and complexity of the wedding.
What Full-Service Means
Everything. From Start to Finish.
Venue Selection
Personal site visits, shortlisting, and negotiation. We find the perfect venue and secure the best terms.
Supplier Curation
Every supplier handpicked, briefed, and managed. Photographer, florist, caterer, musicians, hair & makeup, celebrant, lighting, transport.
Budget Management
Full budget planning, tracking, and payment coordination. No surprises. No overruns.
Legal Paperwork
All Italian legal requirements handled — Nulla Osta, translations, municipal bookings, and apostille coordination.
Guest Experience
Welcome packs, accommodation blocks, transfer logistics, day-after experiences, and guest communication.
Design & Styling
Working with your florist and stylists to bring your vision to life. Mood boards, site plans, table layouts, and installation oversight.
Timeline & Rehearsal
A minute-by-minute run-of-show. Full rehearsal coordination the day before, ensuring every supplier knows their role.
On-the-Day Management
Lauren and her team on-site from morning until the last guest leaves. Problem-solving, supplier liaison, and seamless execution.
