Lee and April
Testimonial from April and Lee : Our Magical Wedding Day,From the minute myself and my partner got in touch with Mario Capuano and Annamaria Staiano about organising our wedding in Ravello- they were both nothing but helpful, organised, and made the organisation process a breeze. A plan was put together instantly with guide prices and things to include and consider for the perfect day. Both Mario and Annamaria reply with speed via email- and always answer all questions/queries throughout the planning process clearly and make life simple - which is what a bride and groom need during the stressful process of planning a wedding. Not only did they plan and organise the most magical wedding day- they also organised guests accommodation, a pre pizza party and transfers- making things easier for all of us :)From helping us chose our beautiful ceremony and reception venues (Belvedere Principessa Di Piedmonte and Villa Eva) - which all of our guests mentioned numerously that it was the most picturesque, stunning setting they have ever seen at a wedding; to arranging our flowers and decoration, our music choices (guitar/mandolin and 2 x dj’s) to our amazing photographer Enrico Capuano- who is the most accommodating and patient person. Not to mention many other inclusions in our package- all coming together to make the most magical stunning wedding which we are eternally grateful for. During our debrief before the wedding both Mario Capuano and Annamaria Staiano patiently listened to all of our ideas and decor ideas - bringing them to life on the day - including making our beautiful sparklers and our freshly picked organic lemons making them into our table names- leaving us nothing to worry about making on the day. I am generally a worrier and a stress head - but with the help of Wagner Tours/Weddings this was not the case. It went so smoothly and not a worry was shed. And the FOOD/CAKE. Wow. All of our guests commented on the quality and amount provided - often hearing ‘the best food they have ever tried at a wedding’. Thank you to all of the staff included on the day also- so polite, caring and efficient. Overall we couldn’t recommend them more - the whole day - best day of our lives and one never to forget. Thank you all for making our dreams come true. April and Lee

Testimonial from Jay and Cat : After deciding to have our wedding in the beautiful Villa Eva, we were introduced to Mario Capuano and Annamaria Staiano from Wagner Tours. From the moment we met this pair, we felt confident that we could trust them to help us organise the most important day of our lives so far. Living in London, we were not able to travel back and forth to Italy as much as we might have liked to, so we left almost everything in the professional hands of Mario and Annamaria. In the few months leading up to the wedding we were in contact via numerous emails, most days, and they were always so prompt in replying and keeping us up to date with the progress of our wedding. It is natural for any couple (especially the Bride) to be a little bit stressed out in the few days before the wedding, but when we arrived in Ravello (three days before the wedding day) both Mario and Annamaria made time to see us, talk to us and reassure us that everything was under control. I have to say that I have no words to describe just how incredible our wedding day was. From early afternoon, until the early hours of the morning the next day, at least one member of the Wagner Tours team were by mine and/or my husbands side. The photographers ( Enrico Capuano team ) /videographers ( Pier Canta Team )made us feel relaxed and at ease. The venue was decorated to pure perfection. The kind, caring nature of Annamaria calmed my nerves and made me feel almost stress free (she is an angel). And Mario, well what can I say, he is funny, professional, organised and was with us until the bitter end (4AM)!!!We both wish so much that we could have our wedding all over again. We miss Ravello, Villa Eva and Mario and Annamaria very much! But since we have experienced our perfect fairytale, we hope to encourage anyone else considering a wedding in Ravello that they will NOT be disappointed with the Wagner Tours team.They truly can make dreams come true. Grazie del cuore.Con tantissimo affetto, Caterina e Jai
Alexandria and Daniel
Review from Alexandra and Daniel : We had our wedding day 4th September, the perfect day we could have ever wished for!Having deciding against getting married in England, We did some research online to find somewhere in the Amalfi coast to get married, to which we kept coming across excellent reviews regarding Mario Capuano at Wagner tours, that evening we emailed him quite late and within an hour we already had a reply. He explained to us in detail various options to have at our wedding, and gave us the dates he had available for the following September, including a spreadsheet with all potential costs. We then decided to visit Ravello with both our mothers a year before so we could get an idea on the weather for September and see what accommodation was nearby for guests etc Having previously visited Ravello 8years ago with my mum I vaguely remembered the area, but as soon as Daniel and his mum saw the church and villa Eva we all fell in love with it. With a year of emails to each other Mario Capuano and AnnaMaria Staiano were there to help us every step of the way to make our dream wedding come to life, they were both extremely helpful and efficient. We felt like we were bombarding them with emails but they always got back to us that day, and nothing was too much trouble for them. Everyone we spoke to in England were so surprised how relaxed we were, having both Mario and AnnaMaria as our wedding planners we felt practically stress free. They helped us every step of the way especially regarding what we needed for the catholic ceremony, and civil part and also kept giving us reminders, so we had enough time for our documents to arrive safely. We arrived in Ravello 6 days before our wedding, and had the pleasure of meeting them both to go through our final briefing, we felt as though we were meeting friends as they made as feel so relaxed and welcome. They both guided us through the order of the day and gave us suggestions of how everything should go which were perfect. When our wedding day finally arrived we can’t even explain how magical it was, the church looked beautiful with the white runner and petals on the floor followed by the flowers at the front. As soon as our guests saw villa Eva they were in awe, the view looking over the coast as the sun was setting was fabulous. AnnaMaria decorated the venue beautifully down to every last detail, all of her suggestions she made worked wonderfully even to providing petals for our walk through for guests to throw as confetti. We had Enrico Capuano as our photographer, and Pier Canta for our videographer, as suggestions from Wagner tours they both caught every single moment and detail of our wedding from getting ready to our first dance, we even visited Ruffolo Gardens for some private wedding photos and videos. For the music we decided guitar and mandolin for half, then the Neapolitan Quintet for the dinner they did not disappoint they had everyone up dancing and singing through out the evening, all of our guests loved it. The food from the canapés to the 5 course meal and wedding cake were all delicious and plentiful, none of our guests were left hungry and all said how lovely and fresh the food was. The day felt as though it went so quickly, having wished it didn’t, and our guests couldn’t believe how everything flowed so professionally with both planners taking care of everything that day so we could enjoy it as much as our guests. We can’t praise Mario Capuano and AnnaMaria Staiano enough for everything that they have done for us during our whole wedding process, without them both we wouldn’t of known where to begin. They both work so hard to make our dream come true, we trusted them every step of the way and they did not disappoint.All of our guests have said it’s the best wedding they have ever been too and still can’t stop talking about it. Thanks for Everything Daniel and Alexandria
Anushka and Ben
Testimonial from Anuska and Ben : The most beautiful wedding have could have imagined, When Anushka and I decided to get married in Ravello - we were worried that being out of the country (we live in London, UK) would diminish our ability to plan the beautiful wedding we so badly wanted. Thanks to the team at Wagner Tours (see below for the stars of the show) - all of our hopes and expectations were exceeded. The day was absolutely beautiful. It was organised down to the tiniest detail. And not once did we feel out of touch, out of control or stressed. It was a day we will remember for the rest of our lives, and we do sincerely believe our guests will too. Mario Capuano - Wedding Planner; Annamaria Staiano - Wedding Planner, Enrico Capuano – Photographer, Pier Cant - Videographer : We would recommend Wagner Tours wedding and weddings to anyone.
Niamh and Omar
Niamh and Omar : Wedding of dreams, My husband and I got married in villa Eva in July and I have to say it was picture perfect our guests had nothing to say other than we had a fairytale wedding and that is exactly what it was. My husband and I had been in the amalfi coast the year before and decided to take a look at venues for our wedding and villa eva stole our hearts but what also made our decision clear that Ravello was the perfect destination for our wedding was meeting our wedding planners Mario Capuano and Annamaria Staiano without them it would not have been possible to have our dream day in the most stunning location on earth.I dont have enough words to praise Mario and Annamaria as they really take all the hassle and hard work out of planning a wedding, they are truly experts at what they do and make you feel so comfortable putting your magic day in their hands. I highly recommend them, we did not just gain wedding planners but great friends who we will gladly go back to visit.Working with Mario we were also able to have Enrico Capuano as our photographer and Pier Canta as our videographer and they did not disappoint our pictures looked like they were from a magazine and our video brought tears or joy to my eyes being able to relive our wedding day again is so magical.All I can truly say is thank you so much to such a highly professional and well organized team of people for the most beautiful day of our lives.
Natalie and Achille
Natalie and Achi : The perfect wedding ! We had our wedding in Ravello in September and it was absolute perfection ! Our wedding planners, Mario Capuano and Annamaria Staiano made everything super easy for us, even as I was planning long distance from Florida. They answered any and every question I had and rather than worrying about not hearing from them consistently, they actually kept checking up on me when I slacked off (which was very appreciated from a procrastinating bride) ! You feel like your wedding is the only one they're working on because of their attention to detail. All of our guests were stunned by how beautiful Villa Eva was, and the food was out of this world ! If you're worried about not being able to sample the food beforehand, DON'T BE. On the actual day, everything ran seamlessly. I can honestly say if I had the chance to do the whole thing over again I wouldn't change a thing, they made everything perfect. Our photos and videos are absolutely gorgeous thanks to the team they work with, Enrico Capuano and Pier Canta. Overall I cannot recommend this wonderful team enough, they made our wedding better than I could have imagined.
Jesse and Lacey
Lacey and Jesse : The perfect wedding We married at Villa Eva in Ravello in October . Mario Capuano and Annamaria Staiano made planning a wedding in Italy from the UK easy and stress free. They were always on hand to answer any question at any time. They made our day perfect for us is every way and all our guests have commented on what an amazing wedding it was with many saying it was the best wedding they had been to (even over their own).Enrico Capuano (Photographer) and Pier Canta (Videographer) captured our day perfectly without making us feel like we were constantly being snapped.
Matt and Rachel
Wedding Perfection Hi Mario , Annamaria and Enrico When we decided to get married in Ravello on the Amalfi coast we didn't even know where to begin, but after searching on the internet I read a few people's reviews stating that they had an amazing wedding planner named Mario Capuano, therefore I contacted you and you responded after one hour with lots of information, ideas and photographs and immediately I knew you were the right person to help us plan our wedding in Ravello. Mario Capuano and his wonderful team (Annamaria Staiano, Enrico Capuano and Francesca ) went above and beyond to ensure that our special day was perfect. Throughout the lead up to the wedding, Mario and Annamaria were always available to answer any questions that we had in a friendly and efficient manner. Their competence and wealth of experience shone through from the very start so we knew that on the day we could leave everything in their capable hands and not have to worry about a thing. They took the time and care to understand exactly how we wanted our wedding to be and went out of their way to make special arrangements and ensure that everything was just as we had hoped. Enrico Capuano is an extremely talented photographer, whose knowledge of the local scenery makes for fantastic photographs. Both Enrico and his assistant, Antonella, quickly put us at ease in front of the camera and they captured every moment of our day beautifully. We really cannot recommend the location of Ravello, the setting of Villa Eva and the expertise of Wagner Tours enough and we are so thankful to everyone who had a part in making our wedding day so wonderful.

Greg and Rya
“Our Wedding day” My wife and I got married in Ravello in May . After our first meeting with Mario and Annamaria , we felt we could put our trust in the team to coordinate our wedding. We were impressed at how passionate Mario was when talking about previous weddings he had arranged. Mario Capuano helped make our day so special. We would recommend him and his team at Wagner Tours for a magical wedding in Ravello.From the very first email, Mario and Annamaria were very prompt in answering our many questions, Mario had fantastic ideas and amazing knowledge of the area and the legality of getting married in Italy. We arrived on the Wednesday before our Friday wedding. We had a large party travelling from the airport via the transfer arranged by Annamaria. She greeted us and our guests when our coach arrived in Ravello and had arranged for our luggage to be taken to the Hotel Giordano.We met Mario on the Thursday morning and he took us to the registry office to finalise some legal documents. We then discussed the final arrangements for our wedding the next day. We felt so relaxed and reassured that everything would be ok, and were able to enjoy our day confident that everything was in order. Our wedding day was amazing ! Mario and his expert team ensured we could still get married in the gardens that we had chosen. It became very clear how good a working relationship Mario has with his colleagues including the florist, registrar and hotel/bar owners. The town hall gardens looked perfect, with flower petals scattered down the aisle; the white chairs and beautiful flowers. The rain could have ruined all of this, but the florist came to our rescue and arranged beautiful lace white umbrellas for us and our guests so we could still enjoy the gardens. After the ceremony, we walked down to the town square for a toast with music playing in the background and the sun shining (finally). It was a lovely idea to have a drink and take pictures with the amazing views of Ravello. Enrico Capuano, our photographer captured the area, our friends, family, and our personality in our wedding pictures. He liaised with Mario throughout the wedding, and stayed with us much longer than we expected. When we received our pictures there were moments we didn’t even realise Enrico Capuano had captured which was a brilliant surprise.After an hour we made our way up to Villa Eva whilst my wife and I had some pictures taken in hotel Maria. Mario with Enrico ensured our guests had all arrived safely and to our surprise as we walked into the Villa they were all lined up to through confetti over us.What can one say about the Villa Eva...... it was amazing! Annamaria did a fantastic job of decorating the villa, it was more perfect than we could have imagined. The flowers in the villa were beautiful and flowering at just the right time, the candles on the pavement as you walked into the villa entrance made it so picturesque. The table decorations were classic and simple, just as we wanted them.....stunning! The food, including the canapés; five course meal; and wedding cake was all of a very high standard, and I can honestly say no one was left hungry! The service was also very professional and discreet. We had a day we will never forget, and many of our guests have commented that it was the best wedding they had been to. This was made possible by Mario and his team. We feel so lucky to have met them and to have had our magical wedding arranged by them. A big thank you, to Mario, Annamaria and Enrico. Hope to see you soon.

“'Its such a perfect day...'”From the moment we met Mario Capuano and Annamaria Staiano we knew that our wedding day would be everything we dreamed of. They supported us through every step and they made all of our ideas possible. The fun started at the pizza party the night before the wedding, which was such an excellent idea so all of the guests had a chance to get to know each other. Then when the big day finally arrived we felt so relaxed and were able to enjoy our day. Words can't express how amazing Mario and Annamaria are and how grateful we are that they arranged and planned our wedding day so we could celebrate with our closest friends and family. Finally we would like to say a massive thank you to Enrico Capuano our photographer, who made us feel so at ease and relaxed all day we can't wait to see the photos. So again, we can't say it enough THANK YOU. We can't wait to come back to Ravello which is such a special place to us now xxx Jessica and Miles

“Our Italian Fairytale Wedding” by Catherine and David ( Uk ) We had our wedding last week and it was a dream. I had 9 months to arrange my wedding and we wanted it in Italy. We had contacted a few planners but Mario's response was fast and the prices were definitely competitive. I think its better to go with a planner who is local to the area! Mario Capuano helped with arranging my guests accommodation which was a great help. We never visited Villa Eva and to be honest we did not need to. The villa is spectacular and the way it was decorated was superb. The villa is much nicer than the photos online!! Mario and his team did a sterling job from start to finish. I took on board his advice as he has been doing this for a long time. When we got to Ravello, Mario and Annamaria Staiano went over and above to make sure our day was brilliant. Annamaria got bubbles for my little flowergirls and make sure my table decorations were perfect. They are both very hands on and helped me with all the details of the day. Enrico Capuano the photographer was a delight to work with. He made me feel at ease on the day and worked well with my little flowergirls. His work is so creative and I cannot wait to see the finished product. I cannot recommend Mario, Annamaria, Enrico and the team enough. They are wonderful and my wedding day was amazing. When your guests say that they have just been to 'the best wedding ever' it makes you feel amazing. Thank you so much to the best wedding team ever!!! xxxx

“A Hollywood wedding in Ravello” by Pier and Viridiana There are no words that can describe how incredible and special Ravello is. If you are looking for a glamorous venue for you and your guests look no further. When I visited Ravello last October I interviewed a few wedding planners. When I met Mario Capuano and his photographer son Enrico Capuano I knew they were the ones for us. Mario and Enrico had incredible knowledge of Ravello and they thought about every thing including the after-party for our guests and suggestions for great suppliers in the area.Mario is not like the others, he works on big city time, not 'italy time' he responds quickly to emails and is always open and honest about logistics. Mario will try his best to make your dreams come true. Mario was the point of contact for all our guests for hotels, transfers and tours... every one was very pleased with his work. Mario is effervescent and knows everyone in the business which helped as I was a very hands on bride and decided to have very different elements to my wedding. Enrico is an absolute pleasure. DO NOT BOOK ANOTHER PHOTOGRAPHER. Enrico is YOUR MAN! Enrico is talented and calm and knows Ravello like the back of his hand. He knew the angles we were after and was aware of the things i didnt like about myself and was conscious of them... and i cannot wait to see the finished product. Annamaria Staiano is an absolute pleasure, her smile will put you at ease. She too is great and if im honest the whole team at Wagner was great. There were some small hiccups as with all weddings but none which were the fault of Mario and his team. Every one says their wedding was the best, but ours truly was and we couldnt have done it without Mario and his team.

“Stunningly beautiful.......”We have just come back from the most beautiful 2 weeks in Italy for our wedding. When we first came across Ravello online, we weren't even engaged and had only seen photos but we said when the time comes it will be the place, it just looked so picturesque and being half Italian i knew i wanted to get married there . We didn't know how it would be possible but after a little searching we came across Wagner Tours and Mario Capuano. From the first email Mario was very informative, sending me lots of options and a very clear sheet with costs so that nothing was hidden or a surprise, this put us at ease straight away as weddings are the most expensive times in your lives and it was amazing we could plan and know how much we needed. We saved so hard and it was so worth it because the day was so stunning. Mario helped us plan and organise everything to perfection, making suggestions, reigning me in if I made an extravagant suggestion and was always so quick to reply to me , even though I had 1000 questions....sorry Mario :-). Someone that needs a big mention is the amazing Annamaria Staiano who as soon as we entered the office 3 weeks ago have us the biggest hug and welcome we felt so special . She is such a star and totally understood all the little details I wanted, even helping me prep some things , adding extras in that i had forgotten and always with a smile. I felt so comfortable with her and she truly is a beautiful person who really is the heart of Wagner Tours. There are no words to express what a lovely person she is. From the minute we arrived in Ravello even though there were other weddings happening she made time for us and let us pop in, or ask questions.We also have to mention Lola the dog who is an important part of the team and even was at our wedding. We would often see Lola across the piazza at night and everyone loved her. I had been following the photographer Enrico Capuano online since we got engaged , looking in awe at his work and getting excited about our day. He was so so friendly when we would chat over Facebook in the lead up and you can tell that he loves his job and is so talented, i just cant wait to see the photos. On the day he was calm and smiley and we felt comfortable, i forgot to ask for some specific shots that i wanted but im sure he has lots of beautiful ones that i didn't even realise .His work just seems to get better and better. Everything from the mouth watering food and cocktails at Villa Eva to the beautiful Violin that was playing as i walked down the aisle and the fun live music from the mandolin and guitar as we walked through the village was just beautiful. Of course as with any wedding there were a few little niggles on the day, you just want it to be perfect, but not that anyone else would of noticed. You are always mindful when you are asking people to come out and spend their hard earned money to watch you get married abroad, but everyone was blown away by Ravello, Villa Eva and the day as a whole.To hear from more than a handful of times that it was the best wedding our guests had been to was pretty amazing .Its honestly made us feel so proud to have that kind of reaction and and none of it would be possible without Wagner Tours!!
Peter and Rachael
testimonial from Rachael and Peter “Best decision we ever made!” Where to begin! We have so much to thank the team from Wagner Tours for, they provided us with the most perfect wedding day imaginable. Led by Mario Capuano, nothing seemed to be too much trouble. When my wife first contacted Mario, we were instantly put at ease by the quick responses and the fact that Mario asked for the most important thing first, the documentation required to legally get married in Italy. Any query from us or our wedding party was quickly responded to and dealt with. As soon as we arrived in Ravello our driver Antonio was there to greet us and provided a very informative drive to Ravello, pointing out interesting landmarks on the way. Now in Ravello, we popped into the Wagner Tours office to officially introduce ourselves to Mario and Annamaria Staiano, and what a lady she is! She is one of the most welcoming, genuine people you could ever wish to meet. As soon as we had a discussion with both Mario and Annamaria we knew our big day was in safe hands. Any worries we had were put to rest straight away and this allowed us to enjoy our time before the wedding. Mario met with us on the Thursday and walked us through where the wedding and reception would take place. My wife was also able to book hair, make-up, nails, flowers, favours and our wedding cake with a minimum of fuss and was able to have hair trials before the big day. Annamaria was in contact with me throughout the week if there were any questions we may of had and even managed to book my Dad a room for the weekend at very late notice, not the easiest thing to arrange on a busy weekend! On our wedding day my wife was able to prepare in comfort with her bridesmaids thanks to the planning of Wagner Tours. Our photographers, Enrico Capuano and Gianni visited us both whilst we were getting ready, Enrico was fantastic throughout the day and we cannot wait to see the photos! I met Mario at Luigi’s bar with the rest of our guests before proceeding to the beautiful town hall gardens. The whole ceremony was like a fairytale and was wonderfully executed from start to finished. We then walked down to the square for a prosecco reception and my wife and I then went with Enrico to the Rufolo gardens to have our photos taken. Once again Enrico put us at ease and spent a great deal of care and time ensuring he got the perfect shot. We then walked with our guests to our reception at the Villa Eva, wow! Everything looked incredible and it blew us and our guests away. Enrico took us for more photos whilst our guests enjoyed the canapés and stunning views. Both Mario and Annamaria were there for the entire evening should anyone have any questions. After the group photos and the speeches it was time for the food, unbelievable! Every course was perfect and all dietary requirements were catered for without fuss. Following the cutting of the cake it was time for the first dance and the disco, and what a disco! Our whole wedding party sung to every song and the acoustics at the Villa Eva were perfect. Our guests were absolutely blown away by the whole day as were we. Special mention to Mario’s little dog Lola who was a smash hit at the wedding!! After a relaxing day on the Sunday Annamaria organised a guided tour around Pompeii and a trip to Vesuvius for us and some of our wedding party. We had a minibus for our group which included a one year old and Annamaria ensured that a baby seat was provided. The guide around Pompeii was really informative and the long climb to the top of Vesuvius was well worth it with the amazing views that greeted us at the top. The day was fantastically organised and well worth the money. We didn’t want to leave but we know we will certainly be coming back and we have made two friends for life in Mario and Annamaria, thank you both so much for making our dreams come true, it was even better than we ever could have imagined! If anyone is thinking about getting married in Ravello, use Wagner Tours, it will be the best decision you will ever make!!

“THE BEST WEDDING PLANNERS YOU CAN FIND!!!!”When we decided to get married, we thought that we could handle the organization by ourselves and we were s little sceptic of the idea of having a wedding planner. We could not be more wrong!!!! MARIO CAPUANO and his team are absolutely FANTASTIC!!!! They are highly professional, very creative, fun to interact with, very good at communicating via email (which is a huge relief if you don’t live in Italy, like us). They are super-organized and from your very first meeting Mario will provide you with regular updates (in writing) on every little aspect of your wedding. Most importantly, they are a great source of fantastic ideas and even if they will always do their best to accommodate your requests, no matter how crazy they might get, they will not spare you their precious advice (saving you from your own excessive craziness sometimes ;-). Most importantly, their work has given us the unique opportunity to relax and enjoy our time in preparation for the big day. That is truly invaluable! Every member of the team is a great professional. Annamaria Staiano, who co-organizes the events with Mario is a super-energetic lady who will make sure every single aspect of the event goes as planned. Enrico Capuano and Gianni are truly great photographers. Armando and Carmela are the best florists you can find.We’ve spent over a year interacting with Mario and his team, and believe us, we were truly sad of saying goodbye after the wedding. Whenever we go back to Ravello, we will certainly pay a visit to Wagner Tours and reminisce the good times we’ve had!

“The most wonderful day”When we decided to get married in Italy we knew that we had to find a great team to work with to ensure that our day was perfect and we sure did! Firstly Mario Capuano was always on hand to answer any queries we had, always emailed straight back with the answer. This really means something when you are planning your wedding! Nothing was ever too much, every idea we had he let us know what he thought and if he thought something could be done in a better way. When we arrived in Ravello and met Annamaria straight away she put us at ease. She listened to how we wanted things and had helpful ideas of her own. The hotels that Mario recommended were excellent. Villa Maria was wonderful, the staff, food and location perfect. The night before the wedding Mario recommended a pizza party for all the family and friends, this was such a good idea! There was so much lovely food and wine and the whole family loved it! The wedding day was so wonderful. We went with Enrico Capuano for our photographs and he was brilliant. He put us all at ease and even though we are yet to receive our pictures, we know that they will be wonderful. The ceremony was excellent and the added touch of drinks in the square was loved by us and the guests. When we arrived at Villa Eva, wow it was all layed out so beautifully! Just how i wanted it. The food was amazing! the guests cannot stop talking about the spaghetti and aubergine crust, it was to die for! The staff were brilliant and attentive. All our family and friends had such an amazing time and cannot stop talking about how wonderful it all was.I want to do it all again! We cannot recommend or thank Mario and his wonderful team enough. Ravello is a fantastic place to get married and with Mario and the team, they just make it perfect. We cannot wait to return!!!

Review: “Bellissimo Wedding!! Dear Mario, Grant and I cannot thank you and your family enough for organising the wedding of our dreams. We have been in a wonderful Italian bubble, since our special day last week. From the moment we chose you as our wedding planner, you have been professional, attentive, reliable and, above all, kind and friendly. Nothing has been too much trouble for you-you would answer my emails straight away-even on weekends and bank holidays!! We felt that our wedding was safe, in your hands, from day one. As a self-confessed perfectionist, I can honestly say that we would not have changed a single thing; even down to the flowers, ceremony decorations and table decorations-they were all perfect and your attention to the fine details cannot be faulted. On the day, your professionalism, organisation, warmth, friendliness and sense of humour was appreciated by us and all of our guests-you and Enrico Capuano ( the photographer ) really did go above and beyond to ensure we and our guests have memories to cherish forever-thank you so very much.
Danny and Chloe
'' A truly Magical Day ''Mario Capuano and Annamaria and Wagner Tours Team put together a flawless wedding for us! Having never been to Italy or knowing anything about weddings, we put our blind faith into their abilities and trusted that the day would be perfect - and it was. If I could do it all again, I would ask that it is done exactly the same. Our Wedding Day from start to finish was exactly as I dreamed it would be. From the minute Enrico Capuano and Janny ( the photographers) arrived in the room to take photos where I was getting ready they made me feel so relaxed and like a Princess. Thank you! If you are thinking about getting married in Ravello, do it!! Mario will deliver you the best day of your life.

“Truly unique” Mario Capuano, Annamaria Staiano and Enrico Capuano ( THE photographer) at Wagner day Tours really surpassed our expectations. I started planning my wedding only in January this year and decided upon getting married in May. With only 5 months to choose a location, wedding planner and get everyone there we were a little nervous that it wouldn't happen. Well after picking the Amalfi Coast, I found Wagner day tours. I contacted Mario and within hours he had contacted me back. And this was the quality of service I got throughout planning my wedding. He had fantastic ideas and amazing knowledge of the area and laws etc about getting married in a different country. He and Annamaria helped me plan the type of ceremony, reception venue, hotels to stay and even the finishing touches of favours on the table. Well the planning was finally over and it was time for us to get on the plane and get married. We meet with Mario and Annamaria 3 days before we got married and this was the 1st visit we had to Ravello. Well what can I say, I was blown away!!! I really had picked the best person for the job. When I walked to villa Eva where we were having the reception I knew it was going to be a truly magical wedding. It was completely and utterly stunning. The day came and Mario stayed with us the whole day and evening and he guided us through the day with ease. I didn't feel at all on edge as I knew if I need anything or had any problems Mario was there to help. Annamaria set up Villa Eva and she made it beautiful all my guests said how beautifully decorated it was. Enrico you made me feel so comfortable in your more than capable hands. You made the whole experience of been photographed a joy. You also made us laugh which made us relax and not worry about the camera. I'm so glad we picked Mario and his team and I would definitely recommend them. :)

“The Most Amazing Wedding Day!”We got married on 15th June in the beautiful town of Ravello, it was truly the most amazing day and beyond our expectations! Everything was perfect and we couldn't have done it without the fantastic support of Mario and Annamaria! Organizing a wedding abroad is a challenge but it all seemed easy with their help and the way it all worked out was unbelievable! From the ceremony to the reception and after-party, it all was very well organized and we could focus on enjoying our special day and celebrate with family and friends. We did not have to worry a single second about anything, Mario was there to ensure it all runs smoothly. Even after a short thunderstorm during the toast on the main square he came with an umbrella for the bride :-) we are still stunned by how amazing this entire day was, the musicians at the ceremony played our chosen songs in a beautiful way, Annamaria went beyond our expectations to set up all the special items for decoration we brought with us and the photo corner especially at Villa Eva, the dinner table setting was beautiful, the food was absolutely delicious and all our guests loved it (and there was a lot of food!), the cake was fantastic with nice lemon flavor, and last but not least: Superb photographers! Special thanks to Enrico Capuano and Gianni Coppola ( the team of photographers) who were both brilliant. Enrico Capuano was helping us to relax a little and make it fun! The first few photos we have seen look absolutely amazing and we cannot wait to see all of them! We can strongly recommend Mario and his entire team to all future brides and husbands, with their help you will have a wonderful wedding, guaranteed, and they will make sure it will be even better than your expectations! The most important and best decision we made was to select Mario as our wedding planner ! For us and our guests, it was an unforgettable experience, they all still send messages saying it was like a dream and the most wonderful day! Again, thank you all, it was truly wonderful!!
Kirsty and Holiver
Mario we would like to thank you so so much for organising our special day for us!! We knew it would be amazing but we were blown away by how beautiful the venue looked! Walking in and being greeted by a gentleman in a bow tie with welcome drinks was great. The candles and fairy lights were absolutely stunning! Our guests were stunned at how beautiful the venue was they felt they had stepped into a film and my father said he had tears he had never seen somewhere so beautiful. The service was incredible and you are so fun! The waiters were so professional and efficient and the whole night was so organised! I trusted your organisation but it was even more than I expected, we didn't have to worry about a single thing the entire night and were able to relax and enjoy our time with our friends. I had very particular requests and asked lots of questions and you were always very patient with me! You are brilliant at your job and we can't thank you enough for everything you did for us!! Enrico Capuano ( our photographer).... YOU ARE SUPERB
Laura and Russel
Dear Mario .Russell and I truly loved our wedding in Ravello! We are grateful for all of your advice, guidance, and hard work to make our day exactly how we envisioned it to be after months of planning. Working with you was a wonderful experience and we never worried considering we were thousands of miles away. Our wedding day was the most unforgetable, spectactular and memorable day of our lives and we could not have asked for anything more, the whole day was like a dream and one that will stay in our hearts from that day forward, forever
Liam and Rachel
Dear Mario, Annamaria ,Enrico and Pier We want to begin by thanking you for our very special day. It was perfect...the weather, the location, the people. Ravello is breathtaking. It i was the most beautiful setting to get married and the wonderful people who helped make our day so special will aways be in our hearts. Enrico Capuano and Pier Cant , the photographer and videographer. Let me tell you, these guys are the best , as so many people have viewed our phots and video and have all said that they have NEVER seen such amazing work! That is true, as the photos were absolutely breathtaking, and his imagination and talent to think of some shots that he did, is not your average photographer! They are so incredible. We have memories that we will treasure forever. Everything went smoothly and Annamaria was a great help. We couldn't have done any of it without your help and we thank you so much for everything. If anyone is ever contemplating getting married in Ravello and needs a company to help them, I would recommend you anytime!
Tariq and Louise
Dear Mario Ravello was wonderful as we both new it would be. We love the area, and look forward to an opportunity to explore more of the Amalfi Coast. Enrico Capuano, our photographer was brilliant. He was very kind a patient while we tried to get the pose he wanted and also in allowing us to choose various poses and shots ourselves. We have never met a photographer who will allow someone to tell him what they wanted but Enrico was brilliant. The reception. I don't think we could have chosen a more splendid location than the Villa Eva. It is an amazing villa, and brought a fairytale end to the day. The views form the terrace alone were splendid. The staff were pleasant and courteous, and nothing was too much trouble. Finally, none of this could have happened if it wasn't for yourself and Annammaria . You offer a wonderful service which allows for a stress free build up to the wedding. We would like to thank everyone at Wagner Tours for making our day magical, but special thanks go to you, if any said to us that they were thinking of getting married in Italy, we wouldn't hesitate in recommending your services. We thank you again for all your help
Paul and Aoife
We want to sincerely thank you and your team for producing our spectacular wedding. Everyone always dreams of the perfect wedding, but our wedding in Ravello really was a dream come true. There were absolutely no problems, everything was on time and beautiful. Even the weather cooperated to make it a 'time of our lives' experience on the magnificent outdoor garden at the Ravello town hall. Everything was perfect from the flowers, the musicians at the ceremony and of course the evening reception and that fantastic cake. I would particularly like to thank you for organising the flowers which were just beautiful and for recommending Enrico Capuano the photographer, being photographed by him was certainly an experience we won't forget . We cannot Thank Mario, Annamaria and Enrico for making our Wedding Day as perfect as it was. It is a day we will hold in our hearts for the rest of our lives and Wagner Tours helped to make it beyond any dream!!!
Natasha and Adam
The stress of planning a wedding at home ( Uk) was beginning to get to us so we decided to look at the options of getting married abroad. Neither of us had ever been to Ravello before but had always planned to. I did a search for getting married in Italy and one of the websites that caught up my attention was Wagner Tours Wedding and Wedding .I contacted Mario and he replied almost immediately with various available locations. This contact remained consistent throughout the entire planning of our wedding, almost every day there was an e-mail waiting for us when we got home from work. Nothing was too much trouble for Mario and Annamaria ( assistant), he was more than happy to cater for our individual needs and requirements. Enrico Capuano our photographer was remarkable. I am not one for having photographs taken; in fact it’s one of the hardest things for me, but most of the time I did not notice Enrico working away. A very experienced professional who’s portfolio speaks for itself. We have no hesitations in recommending Mario Capuano, Annamaria Staiano and the team at Wagner Tours. They made our wedding and holiday an unforgettable experience and we have the photos by photographer Enrico Capuano to prove it!

The Best Wedding Planners Ever!”If you are looking for a wedding planner in Ravello, then look no further than Wagner Tours! Mario and his team organised every detail of our special day on June, and we wouldn’t have changed a thing. It was perfect! We contacted Mario and a few other wedding planners in Ravello, but Mario gave the quickest and by far the most comprehensive initial response. From the very beginning we had a 100% confidence in Mario and his team and they have exceeded our expectations. Mario and his team work virtually all hours of the day and sometimes his email replies are instantaneous. He guided us through the wedding planning process – from the legal requirements, to when to sort the photographer, flowers, menu etc. He told us when we needed to finalise each detail and then sent a confirmation email for our records. He also sent an updated spreadsheet each time we had booked another element of the day so that it was crystal clear what we had and hadn’t booked (including costs). We popped into Mario’s office unannounced in June and were greeted with a very warm welcome. He dropped everything and gave us a tour around Ravello – hotels, reception venue and town hall gardens. It was clear that he knows most people in Ravello!! We saw another of Mario’s weddings in progress and sat out of the way watching from afar. Mario noticed us and brought over some beers for us. That sums up Mario’s warm service!On the day of our wedding (and in the week run up to our big day) – Mario was always on hand and nothing was too much trouble or left to chance. He and his team organised everything perfectly and the day ran so smoothly because of this. Even on the morning of the wedding they helped to sort out a few last minute details to make sure that we weren’t worried about anything. Mario has a great ability of always being there making sure that the day was running to plan but was never intrusive – he was on hand if you needed him but stayed in the background. He was there until the very end of our day – even on hand to eject a few wedding crashers who tried to sneak into our party!We got married in the Town Hall gardens. They were absolutely beautiful and the view was stunning. We would definitely recommend getting married in the Town Hall gardens as your guests will be amazed. The ceremony was lovely and Mario brought a bit of humour to the ceremony when he announced “you can now kiss the Bride” even though we had already kissed three times!!The walk from the Town Hall gardens to the square with the guitar and mandolin was incredible and Mario had arranged for drinks on the square which worked brilliantly. We had two photographers on the day – Janny and Enrico Capuano . Enrico put us at ease and we have seen a sneaky peak of a couple of his photos and they look incredible! We would definitely recommend having Enrico as your photographer. We can’t wait to see the rest of his photos.We had our reception at the beautiful Villa Eva. It looked absolutely fantastic and our guests were blown away by the venue and the views. The staff were incredibly attentive and really looked after us and all our guests. The food was the best food we have ever had - and we don’t just mean wedding food! The canapés were delicious and the food was always hot and portions very generous! Our wedding cake was beautifully decorated and tasted wonderful.One of our concerns about getting married abroad was that the personal touches would be overlooked. However, we couldn’t have been more wrong. Annamaria took care of everything – tying the tags on our limoncello favours, mounting the table plan, putting out the name cards, setting out our fingerprint tree and displaying photo boards that we had brought out with us in a beautiful way. The flowers also looked absolutely beautiful. We were always made to feel special by Mario and his team and like friends rather than clients. They always had time for us and made us feel special even though we know they were super busy planning other weddings. We can’t recommend them enough. Overall, it was the best day of our lives and we can’t thank the team at Wagner Tours enough! We will be back in a year’s time
Leah and Brian
We would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank-you for all your help in making our wedding day in the lovely Ravello villa eva garden perfect. All the planning/organising was made so much easier through contact with you by email, and we received very prompt response and good advise when booking everything (villa eva / hotel/transfers/ hairdresser/photographer/videographer/ flowers/ reception, etc.) We would also like to thank Annamaria who helped with our initial enquires, and Mario who was on hand on the big day to co-ordinate everything. Everything was just as we had hoped. The ceremony was lovely with Mario taking the ceremony in English. The photographer ( Enrico Capuano ) and videographer ( Pier Canta ) were both very professional (and extremely enthusiastic!) Everyone has commented on how professional the photos look, and we have all our memories now stored on DVD as well. We were very impressed with the food & service received at the reception. Thank you once again to everyone at Wagner Toursl for making our Ravello wedding dream go as smoothly as possible. We only hope that we can return to Ravello one day!

“Wedding Perfection!”From our very first enquiry all the way through to our wedding itself, we could not have asked for a better experience. Mario Capuano and his wonderful team (Annamaria Staiano, Enrico Capuano and Francesca ) went above and beyond to ensure that our special day was perfect. Throughout the lead up to the wedding, Mario and Annamaria were always available to answer any questions that we had in a friendly and efficient manner. Their competence and wealth of experience shone through from the very start so we knew that on the day we could leave everything in their capable hands and not have to worry about a thing. They took the time and care to understand exactly how we wanted our wedding to be and went out of their way to make special arrangements and ensure that everything was just as we had hoped. Enrico is an extremely talented photographer, whose knowledge of the local scenery makes for fantastic photographs. Both Enrico and his assistant, Antonella, quickly put us at ease in front of the camera and they captured every moment of our day beautifully. We really cannot recommend the location of Ravello, the setting of Villa Eva and the expertise of Wagner Tours enough and we are so thankful to everyone who had a part in making our wedding day so wonderful
Mark and Cibele
Wedding Perfection Our wedding in beautiful Ravello was like a dream. From the first e-mail to Mario Capuano we knew we were in good hands. Our wedding day was perfect. We met our photographer, Enrico Capuano, the morning of the wedding in the main square of Ravello, Enrico was wonderful. After the ceremony he took some photos throughout the Villa Rufolo and then we walked through the streets of Ravello and on the roof of the Villa Eva for some additional shots. The wedding day went so smoothly it was almost nerve racking! Every detail was taken care of by Mario Capuano and Annamaria Staiano. The splendor of the villa Eva where the reception was held cannot be described. The guests could not stop taking pictures of it trying to capture its beauty. The grounds were beautiful and everything was in bloom. The food was superb and the staff very pleasant. The hours seem to float by and it was hard to say good-bye as we left to go back to our hotel. It was a wonderful day.Thank you Mario for making our wedding day most memorable and care free. We have and will continue to recommend you to everyone who asks about getting married in Ravello.
Siobhan and Liam
“Exceptional Experience and even better service” Siobhan and Liam - Mario Capuano, Enrico Capuano andAnnamaria Staiano with Wagner Tours are extraordinary at planning, making and commemorating unbelievable wedding experiences. But more importantly, they are great people who care about how and why they do what they do. We would have been lost without their guidance, expertise and attention to detail. We are forever gratefully for the lifelong memories they helped us create and were happy to share some of those moments with them. Simply, there are no other options when planning any sort of event in the Amalfi Coast; Mario, Annamaria and Enrico are the best at what they do and you will never be disappointed. Mario, Annamaria and Enrico we cannot say thank you enough!
Natalie and Robert
Wagner Tours was recommended to us through a friend when we decided we wanted an Italian wedding. We visited the Amalfi coast August and Wagner tours far exceeded any other operator we met with. Mario and Anna-Maria have been brilliant from start to finish, keeping me and my now husband on track with paperwork requirements to the running of the day, decorations and finishing touches. They were always a pleasure to deal with and I completely trusted Mario and the team with our big day. We got married on September 15 and it was beyond any of our expectations. It was so beautiful and we were totally blown away (as were the guests). The day flowed and Mario and the team took all of the stress away so we could enjoy every minute. Enrico Capuano was our photographer and was fantastic (with a degree in photography I’m pretty fussy) he captured the day beautifully and just made us feel totally comfortable. Food, flowers, DJ etc were all brilliant, I cannot recommend Wagner tours enough. If you're a bride (or groom) thinking of booking your wedding with Mario - do it, i can guarantee you will have the time of your life :-)
Andrew and Josphine
Mario, Annamaria, Enrico , You completely surpassed every dream we had of having a beautiful wedding in Ravello. The wedding day that you planned for us was the happiest day of my life. Not only were you a cheerful devoted and supportive voice during the planning process but you created a day that ran so seamlessly and smoothly. We could never have imagined our day going as perfectly as it did. We and our families are absolutely ecstatic with the results. We all had such an outstanding day. I would recommend you to anyone from anywhere wanting to have the best wedding planned in Ravello, and I am proud to now call you my italian friends
Barbara and Ross
“The most perfect day...” Barbara and Ross .We have just returned home from the most amazing week in Italy for our wedding. I can honestly say the whole day went perfectly and will be one we will remember for the rest of our lives. None of it would have been possible without the hard work and dedication of Mario Capuano and his team, Annamaria Staiano and Enrico Capuano. From the start, Mario was extremely helpful and gave us clear ideas of the costs involved. Mario was very quick to respond to all my emails and provided us with lots of recommendations for hair, make-up etc ( all of wish I was extremely pleased with on the day).Annamaria is so lovely! She helped to ensure the day run to plan and decorated our tables exactly how we envisaged them.Ravello itself is in the perfect backdrop for a wedding. All of our guests commented on how utterly amazing the views are. We had our reception at Villa Eva which again cannot be faulted! The food was exceptional.Enrico is an amazing photographer and from the few shots he showed us on the day, I know that our wedding photos will be stunning. We would highly recommend Wagnar Tours to anyone who is thinking of getting married in Ravello. It was the best decision we ever made!!
Cory and Molly
“ Our amazing wedding in Ravello” We recently got married in Ravello in August the year. It was the most amazing day and was all thanks to Mario Capuano our wedding planner, Annamaria Staiano and Enrico Capuano our photographer. We had visited twice before our wedding and each time felt like we were already part of the Ravello family. All I can say is that Mario and Annamaria are superb in everything that they do. It's difficult when you live in a different country and you are trying to organise your wedding via e mail, but there was no need to worry. The contact via e mail from both Mario and Annamaria was exceptional. For both myself and my now husband and our guests, nothing was too much trouble. They both guided us through what should happen each month in the run upto the wedding to ensure we didn't leave ourselves with lots of last minute arrangements. We were kept up to date on costs and information so nothing ever came as a surprise. We organised a band from the UK to play for us and although we thought this may be quite difficult logistically, a couple of Skype calls and everything was soon sorted including any equipment we needed. From the Town Hall Garden to the venue for the wedding breakfast, the flowers, catering and everyone behind the scenes involved in our wedding preparation, we couldn't have asked for more. And that's not forgetting the pizza party the evening before which was a great success. One thing we can honestly say is that if you want your dreams to come true, then Mario and Annamaria will make that happen for you. They are truly special people and we can't thank them enough for everything they did to create such special memories for us. We have made such special friends in Ravello and look forward to seeing them again when we return.
Jesse and Jessica
My best wedding ever! (Villa Eva Ravello)” I was proposed and we decided to get marry in Ravello. In June me met Mario Capuano from Wagner Tours and we decided that Wagner Tours could help us to settle everything for us. In the months before the wedding we had close email contact with the Wagner team about the ceremony, food, drinks, DJ, make-up artist, photographer ( Enrico Capuano ), wedding cake.... Wagner Tours took all the stress that normally comes with a wedding, away. Finally we married on June. I had no stress at all. My bridesmaids and me looked gorgeous (thanks to the hairdressers and makeup artist) and the wedding locations was perfect decorated. We can't thank you enough...thank you very much Mario and Team
Jordan and Devon
“The perfect wedding! Forever grateful to Wagner Tours ” The number one question I’ve gotten over the past month since our wedding has been “how were you able to plan a wedding in Italy from the US?!” Most of our friends are shocked that we didn’t take a separate trip to scope out the venue and meet with the various vendors beforehand. To be honest, I had some reservations about whether I could pull off an Italian wedding – site unseen, but I had my heart set on getting married on the Amalfi Coast so I was willing to take the risk! ;) I first came across Wagner Tours on Trip Advisor and was so impressed by the endless number of rave reviews that I shot an email over to them to find out what they might be able to do with our preferred dates and budget. I heard back from Mario Capuano immediately with the most organized, comprehensive, clear and transparent overview - it was so refreshing! Mario Capuano, Annamaria Staiano, Antonella e Francesca are truly amazing at what they do. I will do my best to keep this review concise, but I really could go on all day about how great they are to work with. They were quick to respond to my (many) emails and always reassured me that they had it all under control – that I should just relax and enjoy my vacation! The team was true to their word and planned and oversaw every single detail of our wedding– including things I hadn’t even thought of myself. There was no request too big or too small for them to handle – they managed everything from finding hotel rooms for our guests to planning our rehearsal dinner and orchestrating every minute of our wedding day. Maybe one of the most important parts of any wedding is finding a great photographer who is fun to work with. We decided to go with Wagner Tours’ recommendation and hire Enrico Capuano – this was one of the best decisions we made. Enrico is young, enthusiastic and has a wonderful passion for photography. He is a joy to work with and takes absolutely stunning photos. THANK YOU ENRICO! Our wedding day was perfect. I couldn’t have asked for anything more beautiful and special. Our guests continue to compliment us on throwing such an exceptional wedding - many saying it was by far the best they had ever attended! All the credit goes to Mario Capuano and the Wagner Tours team. I am eternally grateful to Wagner Tours for our perfect day and for making wedding planning such an enjoyable experience for us. It really was the least stressful part of getting married! ;) THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
Lucinda and Mark
“Wonderful Wedding Celebration in Ravello” Mario Capuano, Annamaria Staiano and the rest of their team helped us put on a perfect weekend for our Wedding party in June 2015. We fell in love with Ravello and decided to have our wedding in the town. Arranging a wedding abroad can be a difficult task but Mario was always quick to reply to our emails and many questions, kindly repeating himself when we had forgotten details! We had 80+ people at Villa Maria, which was gorgeous and needs little added to it to make it look beautiful. The food was absolutely amazing and incredibly impressive by "wedding food" standards. We used Enrico Capuano as our photographer. Enrico takes his work seriously and has a good eye and made us feel relaxed in front of the camera. In the run up to our special day, Mario and Annamaria also helped us to organise a "Pizza Party" welcome evening which was great fun and also a day trip to Positano. We'd give Wagner Tours 6 stars if we could.

“Our very special day on July ” To all future brides and grooms, who have chosen Ravello in Italy as their wedding destination: We would like to sincerely recommend you to let your wedding be planned by Mario Capuano and his team - Annamaria Staiano, Antonella Somma and the photographer Enrico Capuano .They made this day so perfect, we couldn't have imagined it to be more wonderful! Everything - from the planning till the realization was absolutely flawless and professional. Our wedding was three days ago - we are still so overwhelmed and everyone from our guests is calling us to tell us once again that the day was absolutely amazing, keep asking us how we have managed to organize everything so perfect! Mario and his team have supported us throughout all of our thousand of questions and natural worries if everything will run smoothly and made this day so special. This was the best choice that we have ever made and as fresh Matrimonio :-), we could only say to the whole team - a big and sincere GRAZIE!!!
Sean and Peyton
“A dream wedding in Ravello, beyond our expectations...” We were just married in Ravello last week and are still smiling so big and can't stop talking about how amazing our wedding experience was. Two years ago when we started thinking about planning a wedding in Italy, I contacted a few wedding planners along the Amalfi Coast and after the first reply from Mario Capuano at Wagner Tours I knew we were dealing with a special and unique group in Ravello. He was the most professional, most straight-forward, and the most flexible out of everyone else we talked to. With confidence we started to move forward and walked into Wagner Tour Offices as we were visiting the area on holiday. The moment we walked in the door, Mario dropped everything to meet with us and then brought us on a walking tour around Ravello, explaining all the options of locations we could choose from. Each option kept getting better and better, and as Mario got to understand what we were looking for, he kept making more suggestions to better cater to our needs. We were thrilled to start to plan our wedding, and then had to put everything on hold as we were expecting a child. Mario congratulated us and said to get back to him when we were ready. The relief of knowing we could pick up where we left off when we were ready, was huge for us. A year later, we were back in communication and finalized our plans for our wedding the following Spring (originally we planned for June but April was such a beautiful time of year in Ravello!) Although I had not met AnnaMaria Staiano in person until the week of our wedding, her communication with me was personable, professional and so accommodating that I was so thrilled to meet her in person and give her a big hug! Each time we walked in the office we were greeted by Antonella Somma who had a huge smile on her face and was ready to help us in any way we needed. Wagner Tours helped to arrange not only every detail of our wedding day, but also our travel and accommodations for ourselves and our guests throughout the entire week. Our guests truly enjoyed staying at B&B Tatore and Villa Maria, both were beautiful and unique. Having the help of planning all of these details, gave us more time to relax and enjoy ourselves. The recommendations from Wagner Tour Offices for Adele as a make-up artist, Gerardo as a hair-stylist and for Tony and Claud as musicians, Carmela for beautiful flowers, and Pino and Chef Luca at Restaurant Tatore for a stunning and elegant wedding reception venue made the day as special as it was. The food at Restaurant Tatore was the best meal we had on our trip and the creativity and attention of the chefs was truly remarkable. Our guests are still talking about the dessert! Our family and friends were so impressed with every little detail and so were we! Everyone kept saying, "This must have taken so much planning!" But in reality, it was the easiest for us! Mario and Annamaria took care of everything and it was evident how much time they put into making our day as beautiful and unique as it was; a beautiful ceremony at Villa Maria, a first toast in the main square, and an amazing dinner reception at Restaurant Tatore, all joined together by a joyous walk through Ravello as we travelled between venues. This was our favorite part. Enrico Capuano blew us away with his charismatic personality and his ability to capture our day with such beauty. He kept us smiling and laughing as he spent hours following us around Ravello and creating memories for us to cherish for years to come. Pier Canta, our videographer, was equally as stunning and we cannot wait to view the beautiful video he has put together for us. Our wedding was dream-like, and although I never use the word "perfect" I cannot think of another way to describe our day...it was absolutely perfect. Thank you so much for everything, Mario and Annamaria, we are so grateful!
Alex and Lee
So Mario has asked us if we want to write a review of the days which covered our wedding....hmmm....well let's just say the aftermath of our wedding has left everyone of our guests struck with awe and the bride and groom absolutely stunned. From day 1 when making enquiries with Mario, we always felt a certain confidence and trust (extremely important). Mario and his team's efficiency in answering all of our queries and assisting our guests with bookings was second to none. We would normally receive response within 20 minutes (UK companies were taking upto 5 days!!). Anyway, on the Friday we had a pizza party for which we were nervous as we had read a couple of bad reviews before hand. We questioned Mario about this and our doubts were quickly turned to reassurance, Mario assuring us he would oversee the party - which was immaculately organised. The food and drink was excellent and our guests were able to enjoy a lovely evening! So, to Saturday and the wedding day...the bride was elegantly styled in the early afternoon by the brilliant Gerardo (who had earlier in the week run a successful and very professional trial at his elegant salon) The civil ceremony which followed was beautiful! With the awesome backdrop and serene music from the violinist. Mario made a few jokes which brought laughter from the crowd and gave things a light-hearted feel. The walk down to the main square accompanied by the guitarist and the mandolinist was absolutely brilliant. The main square which was packed with people enjoying coffees and gelatos, froze and gave us an unrehearsed applause - making the hair on the back of my neck stand up! The toast in the main square was again immaculately organised and so on-point with timing with the extremely handsome Enrico Capuano on hand making arrangements for photography. The procession led to the Villa Eva which drawing gasps from what looked like an adoring public! Talk about feeling like a celebrity!! The reception was run unbelievably to schedule, all down to Mario and his staff and their attention to detail and atmosphere. The tables were beautifully arranged by the Wagner team again with immaculate attention to detail and love. From canopes on the lawn to an exotic wedding dinner. Mario and his wonderful assistant Annamaria were always on hand providing assurance and taking any stress away from the bride and groom leaving us simply, to enjoy the day - amazing. Il finish with these last words....this wedding exceeded our expectations.
Laura and Charles
Exceeded all our expectations - Amazing! We've just returned home from our wedding in Ravello and what a trip it was! We are so happy we chose Wagnertours to arrange our wedding, every step of the way they have been so accommodating, efficient and quick to respond to all of our emails. They took all the stress out of planning our wedding. We knew from reading previous reviews that we could trust them whole heartedly and we weren't wrong! When we met Mario and Annamaria for the first time they were so friendly, we was greeted with hugs and they listened carefully to how we wanted our decorations arranged, they genuinely cared about making sure our day was perfect. The day itself ran so smoothly from start to finish. The ceremony was just beautiful, the flowers were stunning and exactly as I had asked for and as I made my way down the aisle of petals, I couldn't actually believe this was our wedding - it looked like something out of OK! magazine! We then made our way to the square for a toast accompanied by the guitarist and mandolinist which was just magical, all of the locals were taking pictures of us and congratulating us we felt like celebrities! Enrico Capuano, our photographer filled us with so much confidence, he knew exactly what he was doing and even showed us some of the photos as he was taking them just to make sure we was happy, such a lovely man and also Mario's son! On arriving at Villa Eva for our reception, our guests were awe struck by the stunning venue. All of the waiting staff were amazing, the guests were never without a drink and the canapes were beautifully arranged, with the stunning Ravello scenery as a backdrop. The day just kept on getting better and better! Our wedding meal was some of the best food I've ever tasted, especially the pumpkin and mussel risotto which was delicious. The DJ kept some of our guests going until the early hours and we had the best time dancing the night away. We genuinely did not have anything to worry about the whole day, Mario and Annamaria were always there keeping things running smoothly, even until 4am! We could not have asked for a better wedding day and we cannot thank Mario and his team enough for working so hard to provide it for us. So many of our guests have commented that it was the best wedding they have ever been to and I cannot disagree!

“ Ravello Dream wedding ! ” Me and my husband got married in Ravello and had a catholic wedding. It was the best day of our lifes and its all thanks to Mario Capuano and his team from Wagner tours. He answred any question we had within a few minutes by mail. We really felt the passion about weddings in Mario and Anna-Maria. They where so helpful with everything and had every little detail planned. All through the year planning for the upcoming wedding we always felt that this was going to be amazing all because of Mario affection to the planning. And it really was! It was more than you could ever dream. The picutres you see are pretty but its nothing compared to the feeling of being there and experience it in reallity. When we arrived to Ravello and met both Mario and Anna-Maria we felt the wormth of these amazing people. Even when the nerves where high they calmed us down. The wedding was perfect and the venue at Villa Eva was amazing. Anna Maria arranged the venue with perfection and we were so satisfied with it all. Its worth every penny! And the photographer Enrico was so professional and the photos he takes are stunning. We highly recomend wagner tours and Enrico and are so blessed to have had them arranging our wedding! Thank you for our amazing wedding and for the best day of our lifes!

“The best wedding planners for your Ravello wedding” My husband and I visited Ravello and immediately knew that we wanted to get married there. It is such a beautiful place. We met a couple of wedding planners but found it very easy to choose Wagner tours. Mario Capuano took such time and care to explain everything to us, showed us around and explained all of our options. Once we decided to go ahead, it couldn't have been easier. Mario explained all of the various costs that would be involved, so there would be no surprises. He answered all of the questions we had all along the way. He replies to emails very quickly! We knew that we were in good hands. When we arrived in Ravello for our wedding we went to meet with Mario and his assistant Annamaria Staiano. They both put us at ease and made such that we were very relaxed about the day. I had faith that Mario and Annamaria would do an amazing job. And they did! Everything went perfectly. Well, apart from the weather - it rained! Can you believe it? But it really didn't matter. It was the perfect day. Annamaria set up the venue beautifully and made sure that everything went very smoothly. Mario was amazing with our guests and at our ceremony, and all through the night until our party ended at 4am!!! We hired Enrico Capuano as our photographer and we are really happy with the gorgeous photographs we have received. Enrico captured the whole of our day - right through from getting ready (me and my bridesmaids + my husband), the ceremony, our toast in the square, the dinner, first dance and the dancing! They are really great. I could not recommend Mario, Annamaria and Enrico highly enough. We had an amazing time, such a fun wedding and wonderful memories.

“A wonderful day in a wonderful setting.” We first visited Ravello in August , we instantly fell in love and knew it was the perfect place for us to get Married. It seems a difficult task to be able to write a review that truly captures how wonderful our wedding day was. We first met with Enrico Capuano, we instantly knew that we wanted Enrico to be our wedding photographer. He was welcoming, professional and creative. The previous work he had showed us was absolutely stunning. We couldn't wait for him to capture our special day. Enrico then introduced us to Mario from Wagner Tours who explained to us in great detail how it would work to have him as our wedding planer. On arriving home we decided to work with Mario and the team and we couldn't have been happier with our decision. Mario was on hand to answer all of our queries via email and always put us at ease. He made the process easy and stress free. We couldn't have asked for better patience, organisation and creativity. The choices that were offered for flowers, music, food (the list is endless) were incredible and we found that both Mario and Anna-Maria gave great advice on what they would recommend when we were struggling to decide. When arriving in Ravello in July for the wedding, Mario and Anna-Maria were both extremely helpful and organised in making sure that our big day ran as smoothly as possible,We had a bit of a hiccup with rain on the wedding day (we were told this was a sign of good luck!) but Mario and the team handled this well, even though there was a bit of a rush to get both the outside and inside venue ready just in case the weather worsened. Luckily, we were able to continue with our wonderful ceremony outside as planned. Mario conducted the ceremony so well, and we had many comments from guests about how wonderful it all was. I cannot thank Anna-Maria enough for being a calming influence to me from day one of arriving in Ravello until the wedding day. She set up both the ceremony and reception venue perfectly, it was exactly how we wanted it to be. I was speechless when arriving to our reception at Villa Eva, it was far more beautiful than I ever remembered. We would highly recommend anyone to use Wagner Tours and Enrico Capuano Photography when planning their wedding in the beautiful and enchanting Ravello. A massive thank you to all at Wagner Tours and Enrico, we will be looking forward to our next visit to Ravello

TESTIMONIAL: “Mario and Annamaria went above and beyond” When we decided to get married on the Amalfi Coast we messaged many wedding planners to be disappointed at the cost and the late responses....but then we stumbled across a review about "Super Mario" and let me tell you just how Super Mario capuano is!! Firstly he responded to my first email which was 8pm on a Sunday evening...not just by email but with a phone call. Straight away he sent me all the information we needed and answered all my questions...fluent English. .yes with strong Italian accent but that's what you get when picking Italy for your venue. If you want perfect English accent then get married in England. He talked us through the Italian traditions and food and we felt very safe and trusting that he knows what he's talking about. We picked the beautiful Villa Eva for our venue but had a civil ceremony in the town hall. From day one Mario was very quick to organise every tiny detail and guide us through every step. When we popped over the year prior to our wedding at very short notice...The staff couldn't do enough for us..even though a wedding was in progress they still found the time to let us have a sneaky peek at the venue and show us around. Annamaria has the patience of a saint and towards the end when I wanted to check the finer details, she reassured me hundreds of times. On arrival we felt like they had 100% enthusiasm for our wedding and even though they do hundreds of wedding they made us feel very special. Mario even went to the florist and took a picture of my boquet and sent it to me incase there was anything I wanted to check..It was perfect of course. Unfortunately it rained on our wedding day and we thought we may have to get married in the town hall. ..but super Mario pulled it out the bag. Even though he had got his team to set up the town hall, at the last minute the sun came out and he got a message to me to say I could have my dream wedding after all in the town hall garden..I have no clue how it changed it all so quickly but we had the most beautiful wedding in the only half hr of sun that day. Then afterwards because the weather was against us the photographer Enrico Capuano and the Videographer Pier Canta stayed until midnight to make sure they got the perfect shots..so again above and beyond. Mario Capuano and Annamaria stayed throughout the entire night until 4am to make sure everything went smoothly. The food, cake, setting and dj were amazing. Everything exceeded our dreams and more. Truly amazing!!!!

TESTIMONIAL: We found Mario Capuano of Wagner Tours Wedding and Weddings through a google search, and when we think back of the day we believe we were very lucky to have landed on their site and without knowing it at the time, we were in the safest hands that could be. Throughout only 6 months of planning, ( we felt we were taking a leap of faith, not having met our planner in person and managing everything by correspondence. We cannot speak highly enough about Mario and Annamaria, everyone we dealt with from first point of contact was superb. We received top notch service from venue sourcing right the way through to the wedding day itself and even since ... Mario was INCREDIBLE! His patience, and willingness to say yes to make all our dreams come true is priceless. There literally was nothing she couldn't make happen. he is easy to work with, replies quickly to your email and is on the ball in terms of her to-do list. It took all the stress out of our big day considering we lived in London and were planning an Italian wedding, he had his finger on the pulse and we really felt comfortable and relaxed that she had everything covered. ...On the wedding day itself, Annamaria was fantastic, she was friendly, professional and extremely helpful, was spectacular, everyone was amazed by the beautiful Villa Eva venue, the food and the entertainment.. The flowers were stunning, the photographer Enrico Capuano was very friendly and put me at ease (I am not comfortable in front of a camera) and the musicians were fantastic. I particuarly loved the piano and Sax at the dinner. The food and service at Villa Eva was fantastic and everyone talked about the quality of the food and how much of it there was! We even had an amazing full moon above the dinner table. Thank you Mario, Annamria and Enrico

TESTIMONIAL: Amazing service and detail in everything Mario and his team do. They take great pride in ensuring every detail, email, phone call and request is immediatley attended to. We could not have asked for more in a company or wedding planner. The team were so helpful and very good with us considering we speak no Italian at all and we could not recommend this team enough, no words are enough to say thank you for an amazing wedding planned out to every last detail and listening to a brides wishes. Enrico Capuano is an incredibly artistic photographer who makes you feel at ease in front of the camera. He has a true talent for photography. Thank you so very much

TESTIMONIAL:“"A fairytale"” It is extremely difficult to draft a review that encapsulates just how exceptional our wedding was. Myself and my wife Nuala got married in Ravelo on the 3 June and after having time to reflect, there are really to adjectives that could the day justice. The out door venue for the ceremony was absolutely stunning with views from over the Amalfi coast. In terms of venues for the reception, the Villa Eva was better than any wedding venue I have ever been to and also overlooked the beautiful Amalfi Coast. On arrival at the Villa Eva we were greeted with a large variety of canopes and to be honest, if that had been the only food we received we would not have felt short changed (the variety and quanity was fantastic). In relation the actual meal itself, it was a fine dining experience with seven courses. A number of guests have since said it was the best meal they have ever had and the wine was also out of this world. We arranged for our own band to come over but the DJ organised by Mario was fantastic as well and played late into the night (I think it was about 5.00am) before we left the Villa. I know it can be quite daunting getting married abroad and myself and Nuala were both very nervious when we initially booked the wedding. However it immediately became clear that we were both in safe hands with Mario and Anna-Maria. It was clear that both were extremely well organised and professional. Their response times to emails was extremely fast (myself and Nuala often wondered whether they actually slept) and every request we made (no matter how difficult) was accomodated. Whilst there are no superlatives to describes their level profesionalism, I would like to highlight one incident. When sending in the meal requests for the guests, I advised Mario that one of the guests (out of 120) was lactose intolerent. Not only did Mario tailor the menu for her for the sit down meal, but he also set up a table with lactose free canopies for her to enjoy on arrival at the Villa. In my opinion this is an instance of going beyond the call of duty. Mario also stayed in the Villa to the bitter end which again shows a level of commitement that I have never seen from a wedding planner. To sum up, myself and Nuala are still trying to come to terms with just how perfect our wedding is. I have given the day 5 stars but to be honest there is not a rating that I could give that would do the day justice. A massive thank you to all at Wagner Tours wedding and weddings and to Enrico Capuano, our incredible photographer , we will be looking forward to our next visit to Ravello
