Who is a wedding coordinator, his services and duties

Planning and organizing a wedding is no easy task for a couple, especially if the wedding is planned in another country. However, not all brides are ready to entrust the organization of their dream wedding to someone else.

With enough free time and motivation, you can organize your wedding in Italy on your own.
