BACKGROUND AS A BALLERINA

Mariella’s background as a dancer with the Royal Swedish Ballet in Stockholm started in 1991. Later love brought her to New York City where she continued her dancing career but also worked with the organization of exclusive corporate events; the Swedish General Consulate and the Canadian Consulate were among her clients. Since 2003 she has been based out of Stockholm as an event and wedding planner and helped a large number of wedding couples make their dream wedding a reality.

GLOBAL WEDDINGS

There have been ceremonies by priests, rabbis and officiants, receptions at the Grand Hotel in Stockholm as well as in couples’ private residences. Stockholm city, Värmdö, Lidingö, Fjäderholmarna, Kalmar, Linköping, Visby, Sala, Skövde, Skåne, Engelberg och New York are only a few examples of all the places Mariella has travelled. Many of the weddings have been multinational, where the bride or groom have had another nationality than Swedish. Regardless of nationality, location, weather or budget they have all been fantastic weddings – where happy and relaxed wedding couples have had the opportunity to experience a day filled with beautiful memories that will surely last a lifetime.

  • Dear Mariella,  Thank you so much for helping us on our special day! It really was the best day and we're so happy with how everything went. So many of our guets told us it was the best wedding that they'd ever been to and that was in no small part down to all your hard work and your incredible team! From recommending the best vendors to your totally in control attitude to making sure everyone got off the island on time, we really can't thank you enough! It really was an amazing wedding and a memory that we will cherish forever! Tack, Tack, Tack!

    Karolina & Mikael

  • Mariella.... Just wanted to say another thank you. We can't be happier and are still overwhelmed about our dream wedding. Nothing would have been possible if not for you. From the mental support of you being calm the entire week before despite some hiccups, to recommending the best band and photographer imaginable, organizing hair appointments for 16 bridesmaids and to coordinating all imaginable vendors and making sure we were in our seats for all speeches. Just thanks and forever gratefulness from me.

    Lyndsey & Jocke

  • Mariella,
    Vi vill tacka dig för all hjälp och stöd du givit oss från dag 1. Vi hade aldrig klarat av att själva organisera en sådan internationell tillställning med hög standard utan ditt kontinuerliga stöd och effektiva arbete. Vid varje problem vi stötte på eller kände att vi inte hann med att göra själva fanns du alltid tillgänglig!”
