Anna and Dmitriy
It's been a while since I've been trying to figure this feedback out. I just don't want to write general things like «the best day ever», «professional approach», «high level of service», «individual approach», etc.

For some time, I could not find the right words to thank Olya for the path that we went through together: from a symbolic ceremony for two to a real Catholic wedding in the family circle. Therefore, I decided to tell the story step by step.

My husband and I immediately decided that we would have a wedding for only two of us, that it would be only our day. We wanted to enjoy it, rather to worry about friends and relatives.

Initially, we planned a symbolic ceremony in Prague, as we love that city very much. But then I saw some photos of the city of Alberobello, Italy. These snow-white houses charmed me, and I told my husband that it would be great to see the place live. A little later, when we were on vacation in France, we wandered into a temple. An organ was playing there, and we got so delighted with that music that we decided organ music to be a "must have" at our wedding! Some time later, the Volga Wedding Show was held in our city. We were guests of the event. There we got the contacts of Olga Provotorova, so we contacted her. All in all, since that moment we stopped just dreaming about a perfect wedding. Our wedding preparation actually began.

I didn't even think of organizing everything on my own. I perfectly understood that it was not an easy task: another country, a different mentality, and different language. At first, we contacted Olga for advice just because we were not used to trusting strangers, especially, on such a serious issue. Also, the events had been held for several years in a row by her, so we assumed that people would not cooperate with scammers over and over again. We came to an understanding that it was an influential agency that value their reputation.

I immediately outlined the requirements to Olga: the ceremony should be symbolic, should be held in a church with organ music, my husband should approach me riding a horse and he should take me to the ceremony, in general, it should feel like a fairy tale. All the action should take place in Rome, as we decided to kill two birds with one stone combining our wedding and vacation. Olya specified the budget we were counting on right away, she sent us a checklist and an agreement to preview.

After receiving the estimate pricing, we, obviously, decided to search for some other options as well (better or even cheaper ones). To our surprise, the same day Olga contacted us and said that other event-managing agencies had contacted her with a request to help organize our ceremony. After that, we decided that it was better to trust her and not to interfere in the process! Apparently, that turned out to be the right decision.
While searching for the right place in Rome, it turned out that we couldn't have it all at the same time. So we had to transfer our event to Venice as Olga was based in there and it would be easier for her to help us with the event. However, it the organ could only be installed in an active temple and symbolic ceremonies couldn't be held in active temples, so technically our plan was not quite possible to be realized. Then Olga asked: "Well if this exact vision of the ceremony is so important for you, then why don't you actually get married and have a real church ceremony?". This was a good question. However, I am an Orthodox and my husband is agnostic. How do we marry in a Catholic church then? Nevertheless, we had to decide on something either it was a symbolic wedding and there was no organ music or it would be a real ceremony with organ music.

After several months of thinking it over, we decided to consult a priest in a Catholic parish located in our city. The wonderful priest turned our to be very modern and easy to communicate with. As a result of our conversation, my husband decided to be baptized. It was also finally decided to have a real ceremony. In Catholic Church, a preparation for baptism and marriage is a very long process, accompanied by training, education and so on. Speaking generally, it is a huge story so I am not going to tell it now.

In Venice, not a single temple agreed to marry us, since we were not parishioners. Our hope ruined. But then Olya sent us a video of a temple, which is located on the other side of Italy, in the city of Martina Franca, in the same region of Apulia, near the city of Alberobello (that I told you in the first part)! Isn't it a pure miracle?!

Olya thought through everything to the smallest detail; actually she was literally inspired by those details. She thought through the theme of the wedding, place for shooting, location, dinner, also what beauty salon to choose, we were also supposed to have the gathering of the bride and guests. In general, we didn't have to care about anything, really.

However, the only thing we did care about was the language barrier at the ceremony, as we didn't speak Italian and the priest, who was supposed to marry us off, didn't speak Russian. Nevertheless, he was absolutely wonderful and really sweet. Olya was always there for us and actually helped us during the ceremony by the request of the priest.

It was like a fairy tale: I walked in a white dress with a long veil, my dad led me to the altar to organ music, my husband raised the veil, we exchanged vows, then there were tears of joy and the locals who were present in the temple greeted us and congratulated. It was unforgettable!!!

Then there was dinner. This is a whole new story. We did not have any musicians or hosts. Olya made it up for them all. It was a laid-back evening with family. We asked Olya to order dishes and a cake at her discretion. And that was the right decision as well. The serving of each dish was also accompanied by a story about it. Olya is an amazing and incredibly interesting person. Even our parents, who are not quite used to such events, felt relaxed and enjoyed their time.

Olya, you are a fairy. Thank you for organizing our best day.

As for the organization of the wedding itself – everything was perfect and we enjoyed our day just as we planned.

Thank you very much for such a wonderful wedding day! We couldn't have been more happy. You truly did it justice! You took care of us and made sure that we had everything!
