Salzburg wedding
Wedding Thank you! Our wedding day was AMAZING! We are overwhelmed with joy and gratitude for all that Irene and Mihai did to make OUR DAY so special! They are a wonderful team who gave us more than we could have imagined! Here’s our story... I was engaged! It was time to plan the wedding. Josh and I wanted to enjoy this experience. We wanted our wedding day to be all about us! It was clear we were eloping! We knew we were going to be travelling in Europe for the honeymoon but we didn’t know the exact destination we were going to get married. I needed help! I found Irene quite quickly in my search for wedding planners in Europe. She has this elegance that you can see in every wedding she has done. It's hard to find that level of consistency. I had to know more about her and if she was available for us. I quickly sent an email. Irene promptly replied and answered all my questions. Securing her as our wedding planner was an easy decision. We are in California and planning a wedding in another country comes with challenges. Irene and Mihai helped us find the country where we could have a legal ceremony without too many restrictions. Within Austria, they helped us find the perfect location based on how we envisioned our wedding day. They helped us navigate the legal paperwork like rockstars because it’s confusing. This awesome duo then helped us find fantastic vendors to pull the details of the day together. We choose the Schloss Fuschl Hotel for our Wedding location. It’s beautiful and we could escape into our own world for a few days where we could be spoiled. Irene and Mihai helped us with every detail from reserving our room to the ceremony and dinner location at the hotel. The make-up artist, the salon blowout, the nail appointment, the massages, the champagne, the five-course dinner, the wedding cake, all of the beautiful flowers, the amazing Katka Koncal and her husband, Daniel, for the stunning photography ......absolutely everything that we needed they helped coordinate. Ultimately we could not have had a better experience and we couldn’t say enough nice things about these two wonderful people.

Picture your dream wedding
Pause for a moment and picture your dream wedding. Imagine the sights, the sounds, and the feel of your ideal day. Now imagine someone who has the magic powers to extract that exact fantasy from your mind, breathe life into it, and make it a reality - down to the smallest detail; everything one thousand times more beautiful, more perfect than you ever imagined. It sounds too good to be true! But it’s not if you know Irene and her team at High Emotion Weddings. We immediately fell in love with the classic elegance and breathtaking beauty that exuded from a photo after photo in HEW’s portfolio. The initial discovery call sealed the deal for us. Irene was warm, inquisitive, and thoughtful. She wanted to know about us as a couple - our likes and dislikes; what our ideal day looked like; how we wanted to feel. We found this to be refreshing compared to calls we had with other planners whose first order of business was to discuss numbers, logistics, and deposits. With them, it seemed like just another transaction. With Irene, it immediately felt personal. We worked closely with Irene and Mihai to refine the details of our wedding weekend. They consulted us about every element - website, music, photography, food & beverage, decor, you name it! They asked us to share the vibe we wanted, and they narrowed down a few options for each category from which we could choose. This was a blessing for people like Joe and me who are super indecisive! Irene and Mihai provided their expert opinion when we asked for input, but they were never pushy and never tried to sway us in any particular direction. Irene graciously advocated for us when speaking to vendors - communicating our desires and our concerns and negotiating to price when it was warranted. Each step of planning was handled so thoroughly and so methodically. Irene was speedy and comprehensive in her responses. Her communication via email was always crystal clear - something not easily achieved for most people, but super important when it comes to planning the finer details of a destination wedding. We had regular status calls where Irene provided us with a list of completed, ongoing, and future tasks. I cannot stress enough how buttoned-up everything was. We were in lockstep with Irene and Mihai through the entire process; our visions completely aligned. We truly felt a partnership with them. Joe and I always scoffed and rolled our eyes when people would tell us our wedding is the best day of our life. “We’ll have lots of best days!”, we’d respond. How wrong we were. We both can honestly say that Irene and Mihai gave us the most incredible day of our life. The thought, care, and attention to detail that went into planning were second to none. The execution was flawless. They took all the stress out of planning a wedding. They did all the heavy lifting so we could sit back and simply enjoy our day. They created a masterpiece: making it possible for us to marry in an exquisite church, and then celebrate our love with our family and closest friends in an actual palace! The expressions and reactions of our families and friends are forever ingrained in our minds. We have never felt so much happiness, so much love. We’ve been to a lot of great weddings, but there’s something about them that always seem so generic; cookie-cutter, if you will. They all have a similar look and feel, bar the different flowers or linen colors. That wasn’t the case for us. Everything that Irene touched was pure gold. If you want a day that’s truly special, truly one-of-a-kind; a day that truly captures and reflects your essence as a couple, you need to hire High Emotion Weddings. No one will put as much love or thought into making your special day a reality as Irene. She is sincerely one of the most talented, creative, perceptive, and beautiful humans I know. Thank you, High Emotion Weddings, for setting the bar so high. You are truly masters of your craft.
