About VB Wedding Studio, LLC
Valentina Bianchi
If Italy keeps coming up when you picture your wedding, this is where to start. I plan multi-day weddings in Italy for North American couples, translating how Italy works into an experience that runs on American standards. I grew up in Milan, lived in the Northern Lake District for over ten years, and spend half my life in the United States. I know the country from the inside and how my couples think. Most couples fall for Italy but worry about the distance. I keep the vision intact and handle the ground, so no detail becomes a problem. Marrying in Italy deserves better than getting lost in logistics, that's why I'm here.
I am Italian, and I live between Italy and the United States. That is exactly what makes this work. I read both cultures fluently, the Italian way of doing things and the American way of expecting them done. Italy is beautiful and genuinely hard to navigate from the outside. Contracts read differently, vendors keep their own rhythm, and couples doing it alone usually feel the gap. What I offer is access, the vendors worth trusting and the villas worth booking, run on the standards my couples expect, clear information, transparent relationships, fast communication. You get Italy working in your favor, without the guesswork.
In three words: Calm, Organized, Supportive

The best choice you could ever make
I can't recommend Valentina enough. We found her almost by accident, though I've come to believe accidents don't really exist, and she turned out to be the best discovery we could have made. What struck us right away was how clearly and confidently she laid out the way we would work together. We had our hearts set on Tuscany at first, but once we saw her work, the feeling of Lake Maggiore pulled us in completely, and I still don't have the words for what we lived that day. Our guests came from everywhere. I'm American, my husband is Argentine, my mom lives in Costa Rica, and his family is in Japan. It sounds like the setup to a joke, and somehow Valentina brought every one of them to the same place to share the most beautiful experience of our lives. She paid attention to everything. On the wedding day she thought of things we never would have imagined, and in every detail she kept the promise she made to us on our very first call. She made real what had only lived in our heads, and she went far beyond anything we expected. If you're even thinking about it, trust her. You won't regret it.

Valentina is by far the best wedding planner you could hope for. Patient, focused on all the details and incredibly involved. You can't find a better person for the job. She really does make your Italian wedding dream come true

Words cannot describe the incredible experience that Valentina provided for us. She is the most dedicated and thoughtful wedding planner to ever exist. I found myself asking my fiance multiple times “do you think she has any other clients” because that is how dedicated of a wedding planner she is. Valentina went above and beyond to plan an incredible experience for my 120 person wedding in Stresa. Not only did she plan every event flawlessly (welcome drinks with 2 boats, rehearsal at a winery, wedding at Villa Muggia, cooking class the day after) she also helped us arrange private transfers for many of our guests and even made dinner reservations for us. Being from Chicago, I am used to wedding planners treating weddings as nothing more than a business. Valentina treated my wedding as if it were her own. At the end of the weekend, she planned the most beautiful and moving farewell surprise I could have ever imagined. Her entire team is just as dedicated and thoughtful as she is. She advocated for us with all of the vendors, ensuring that we were getting the best possible price at all times. Valentina is well connected, well organized, and well versed in communicating with Americans. She is one of the most responsive people I have ever met! I could go on and on but at the end of the day I gained not only a husband in Stresa, but a friend in Valentina as well.
VB Wedding Studio, LLC•Jun 1, 2026Sasha, this made me smile so much, thank you! And that question you kept asking Robby says it all, honestly. Total presence and dedication for every couple I work with, as if each wedding were the only one. That's how I work, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Watching you three days together, your people, the laughter the love...the FUN!!! It was one of those weekends I'll carry with me for a long time. You came to Stresa for a wedding. I'm so glad you're leaving with a friend too. I'll see you around :-)

Ho conosciuto Valentina anni fa, truccandola durante un evento. Fu già allora un bellissimo incontro. Ci siamo ritrovate mesi fa', ed abbiamo avuto una meravigliosa conversazione sul mondo bridal, sulla nostra "vision" comune : offrire alle spose i nostri servizi unitamente ad un'experience umana avvolgente. La magia si è compiuta! Valentina mi ha coinvolto in una magnifica avventura professionale, in veste di make up artist. Con grande competenza organizzativa Valentina ha gestito i preparativi di sontuose nozze, sul Lago Maggiore, di una coppia Statunitense, con tanti invitati esigenti da seguire, e coccolare fin dal welcome party in riva al Lago. Il giorno delle nozze l'apoteosi! Con precisione inappuntabile Valentina ha curato dall'alba fino a notte fonda ogni minimo dettaglio, rivestendo una moltitudine di ruoli. La sua capacità di scegliere con attenzione i migliori fornitori , metterli armoniosamente insieme, dando loro fiducia, ha prodotto un'alchimia che solo una grande professionista come lei può orchestrare! (Translated by Google) I met Valentina years ago, doing her makeup at an event. It was already a beautiful encounter. We met again months ago and had a wonderful conversation about the bridal world, about our shared vision: offering brides our services combined with an immersive human experience. The magic happened! Valentina involved me in a magnificent professional adventure, as a makeup artist. With great organizational skill, Valentina managed the preparations for a sumptuous wedding on Lake Maggiore for an American couple, with many demanding guests to look after and pamper, starting with the welcome party on the lakeside. The wedding day was the apotheosis! With impeccable precision, Valentina oversaw every tiny detail from dawn until late at night, taking on a multitude of roles. Her ability to carefully choose the best suppliers, harmoniously bringing them together, and trusting them, produced an alchemy that only a great professional like her can orchestrate!
VB Wedding Studio, LLC•May 28, 2026Cara Fabia, leggere le tue parole mi ha davvero emozionata. Perché quello che descrivi va bene oltre una semplice collaborazione professionale, è esattamente il tipo di connessione umana che cerco ogni volta che costruisco un team. Con te, fin dal primo momento, ho sentito la stessa cura, la stessa attenzione al dettaglio, lo stesso rispetto profondo per la sposa come persona, prima ancora che come cliente. Lavorare insieme su queste nozze è stato un privilegio. Sapere che accanto a me c'era qualcuno con la tua sensibilità mi ha permesso di essere ancora più presente, ovunque servisse. Grazie per aver condiviso questo. E grazie per quello che porti, in ogni stanza in cui entri. A presto, con affetto. Valentina
