About Us
Hello! I’m Barbara Gourdain, Founder & Director of Extraordinary Weddings Italy.
I launched my own company in 2011 after years of experience in marketing and event management across both the private and corporate sectors. Today we are an Italian wedding planner based in Cuneo, in the heart of Piedmont, just a short drive from the Langhe vineyards and the Ligurian coast.
Extraordinary Weddings Italy was born from a dream—a way to combine my romantic nature with my planning expertise and creative vision. I have always been drawn to destination weddings and working with international couples, inspired by my own multicultural family background.
The Noblest art is that of making others happy
I truly love what I do. Helping couples bring the wedding of their dreams to life and creating it alongside them is an extraordinary experience—each celebration is unique, meaningful, and deeply fulfilling.
I delight in spoiling my couples and crafting a wedding day that will forever hold a special place in their hearts. Imagine stepping into a world where every detail, every professional, and every moment is perfectly orchestrated to bring your vision to life.
We are a professional, warm, and attentive team who approach each wedding as a shared adventure. We build genuine connections with our couples and celebrate every step of the journey together—right up to the Big Day.
My Dream Team
Extraordinary Events Begin with Extraordinary People
Behind every unforgettable celebration is a team of extraordinary people.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of building trusted relationships with an exceptional network of partners and suppliers who share my vision, values, and unwavering commitment to excellence. These are the professionals I rely on with complete confidence—creative minds and skilled experts who approach every wedding with passion, precision, and genuine care.
Together, we have transformed ideas into remarkable celebrations, overcome every challenge with dedication, and created experiences that leave lasting memories. Our collaboration is built on trust, respect, and a shared pursuit of perfection, because the most extraordinary events are never the work of one person—they are the result of a team working in perfect harmony.
The Strength Behind Every Exceptional Event
A carefully curated network of outstanding professionals, united by excellence, creativity, and a shared passion for crafting unforgettable weddings. Together, we bring every vision to life with seamless collaboration, impeccable attention to detail, and an uncompromising dedication to creating extraordinary experiences.
