I Propose | Elaborate on how the two of you met or on how the proposal went down.

We were destined to meet. Our families knew each other but we had never met and we didn't know that we were very distant relatives. The occasion for our first encounter was created when I moved to the city where he was living and his parents invited me for lunch on a Saturday afternoon...and since then we never left each others'side! We spent seven years together before getting married and during this time we grew up together always supporting each other. We felt that we were the right person for each other since the beginning and we started picturing our wedding long before it actually happened.

Bride & Prejudice | Express some memorable experiences you had during the planning.

The year before the wedding has been amazing and surreal. We were living together for more than a year when we had to separate for few months because of our jobs. It was not easy to plan a wedding under these conditions. This year was the most intense, busy, demanding and emotional year of my life. But I would live it again. During this year we also found our new apartment, we furnished it and, finally, few months before the wedding, we went back to live together in the same city. The nicest memories of this period are related to energy and enthusiasm we felt and we were surrounded by. This period made us feel very close to each other.

My Fair Wedding | Describe an event that you feel was unique or even funny.

The party was perfect...a cocktail at sunset under the warmth of the Italian sun, a dinner lit by thousands of lights and then dancing like children until late night. All of this in an amazing location that was so beautiful my eyes could not believe it. It had been imagined and designed in every detail and seeing it realized was a real dream. Friends and relatives made us the happiest people in the world.

Don't Tell The Bride | Reveal something that happened behind the scenes.

The month before our wedding was pretty difficult. We both fell ill, I had a horrible cold that didn't allow me to walk for several days and he got one leg injured during a basketball match. Until a few days before the wedding we didn't know whether he would be able to walk without crutches. Everything went well in the end....I had a handsome limping groom.
