Why and when did you decide to start Ester Chianelli Events?

My name is Ester, and I was born in Naples in the summer of 1982. I lived in three Italian cities until I was nine and always lived in Napoli. That’s why I can simulate at least five different Italian accents. I Graduated in Marine Biology, but deep in my soul, I felt to have an artistic talent that started thanks to my experience as a television journalist. I abandoned the biologist career at 23 years to devote myself to what most represented me.

As a television correspondent, I’ve travelled in more than 30 countries, filling my luggage with traditions and customs from every part of the globe and improving my relationship with foreign languages. As a young woman, I entered the world of events thanks to my relationship with my first employer. Through him, I was catapulted into this beautiful world, and I was fascinated by it so much that I dreamed of it as my life’s work.

After creating a dense network of contacts using my personality, creativity and positive approach, I started to move my first steps in the wedding world, becoming a well-known Italian wedding planner in a few years.

What’s the most popular wedding theme/style people go for?

The people that contact me want authentic and highly personalized events and prefer the natural and greenery style. The Mediterranean flora and the colours of the tiles of the surrounding Amalfi Coast inspire us.

What’s the most luxurious event you’ve had to organise?

Four days in Capri. A super private and locked event! Exact location but four different events with four different setups. Five international DJs and a famous American singer! The number of flowers and lights we were involved in was insane! Everything was perfect, and the couple was delighted and the greatest reward for me.

Which have been the most magical locations/ venues you’ve planned weddings in?

Absolutely Villa Cimbrone in Ravello!

Tell us a favourite memory of yours:

That was the precise moment I realized this would be my life’s work! A wedding planned by me had just ended, the joy I saw in the eyes of the spouses, their gratitude and the guests’ happiness, told me I had taken a good direction, now I can confirm that I was right!
