The People Behind Cin Cin Weddings

A TEAM THAT
UNDERSTANDS
ITALY.

Our work in Italy goes far beyond finding beautiful venues. We know the language, the culture, and the different ways people work locally. We understand the importance of personal relationships, clear communication, and getting the timing right throughout the planning process.

Cin Cin Weddings works across languages and borders. This allows us to work directly with our couples as well as Italian and international vendors, avoiding unnecessary language barriers or misunderstandings between everyone involved.

Over the years, we have built a carefully developed network of venues, caterers, florists, photographers, production partners, entertainment specialists, and transportation providers. What matters to us is working with people who are reliable, share our standards, and approach a wedding with the same care that we do.

We understand the trust you place in us when you put your wedding in our hands. We take that responsibility personally. Our aim is to ease the organizational demands while creating a planning experience in which you feel confident, supported, and understood at every stage.

Depending on the wedding, an experienced team supports our work on site. Together, we bring creative direction, planning, hospitality, and production together, from the first idea until the last guest has left.

Our Team

The CIN CIN WeDDINGS TEAM

Cin Cin Weddings is deliberately led with a personal approach. We also know how important it is to have people you can truly rely on by your side for a destination wedding.

Our team brings together different experiences, strengths, and personalities, with one shared ambition: for our couples and their guests to feel cared for while everything comes together behind the scenes.

ALBA

Founder · Creative Direction · Production

Alba comes from the international worlds of fashion, beauty, and production. Editorials, campaigns, and creative productions have shaped her eye for aesthetics, detail, and compelling imagery. Italy is a natural part of her life: she speaks the language, knows the culture, and understands its people. This instinct helps her create a natural connection between international couples and Italian partners. At Cin Cin, she brings it all together: creativity, intuition, experience, and the ability to turn many individual ideas into an atmosphere that feels cohesive and personal.

ERNST

Founder · Planning & Hospitality

Ernst grew up with hotels and hospitality. As a former hotelier continuing a family tradition, a Michelin-starred chef, and a restaurateur, he knows the art of hosting through both his work and his own life. He understands the experience, timing, and attention behind an evening that feels entirely effortless to guests. At Cin Cin, he brings that perspective to food, quality, service, and the many small details that make a celebration truly special.

JULIA

Event Producer

Julia is the person who gets things moving and makes sure they come together as intended. She keeps productions on track, coordinates vendors, manages timelines, and stays calm when ten things are happening at once behind the scenes. That combination of structure, momentum, and composure makes her an important part of our weddings.
