Ciao Jess & Jimmy,
Thank you for considering Che Figata for your wedding in Rome. I loved reading through your vision, the focus on effortless elegance, your Italian heritage, and the idea of a Catholic ceremony followed by an exclusive-use villa reception. It gives me a clear sense of the atmosphere you want to create.
I’ve curated a tailored selection of packages designed specifically for your date and the Rome setting you’re drawn to. From exploring ceremony options at Sant’Ignazio to securing a venue like Villa Aurelia (or comparable estates), my goal is to streamline the entire process so the planning feels intentional and your wedding day feels calm and enjoyable.
I’m looking forward to learning more and starting to shape this experience with you both.
Welcome.
Sono Tarah, planner, designer and creative director of Che Figata.
For the past fifteen years, I’ve worked in marketing, events, design, and brand direction, helping people and places tell stories that feel alive. My work bridges Italy and the Carolinas, blending dolce vita sensibility with intentional design and calm strategy.
I started Che Figata to create experiences that move people. Weddings that feel cinematic, interiors that feel soulful, and brands that feel human. With a background in graphic design, interior styling, and luxury event direction, I approach every project like a visual language: color, texture, emotion, and space working together in harmony.
Benvenuti, let’s make something unforgettable.
About.
Bespoke planning, editorial design, and refined production for destination weddings in Italy.
Your wedding deserves more than coordination, it deserves creative direction, intentional structure, and a planning experience that feels as calm and beautiful as the day itself.
At Che Figata, we design and manage weddings with an editorial eye, a designer’s precision, and the fluency of a team deeply rooted in both Italian and American cultures.
We specialize in celebrations that are immersive, heartfelt, and aesthetically driven, blending the architecture, mood, and romance of Italy with refined design and seamless production.
This proposal offers three carefully structured tiers, each crafted to support a different level of creative involvement, weekend flow, and guest experience, while ensuring you remain fully supported, never overwhelmed, and deeply present throughout your wedding journey.
Love Letters.
From our very first call, I knew Tarah was the one. She instantly understood my vision and brought it to life with creativity, honesty, and total calm.
She was my hype woman, voice of reason, and comedic relief all at once. Our wedding day was stunning, stress-free, and beyond what I dreamed of. Her passion, work ethic, and heart shine through in everything she does.
I'd choose Tarah and Che Figata a hundred thousand times over.
Bree & Jeffrey
She's the wedding planner you didn't know you needed. Fluent in Italian, endlessly creative, and impossibly calm. Somehow, she takes all your chaos and turns it into a beautifully orchestrated event that feels effortless.
Tarah's creative eye is unreal. She designed our website and invitations like a luxury branding agency, all while managing vendors, logistics, and last-minute curveballs with grace.
If you're planning a wedding in Italy (or anywhere, really), hire Tarah. You'll get stunning results, real kindness, and someone who makes the whole experience fun and completely stress-free.
Lindsay & Travis
Hiring Tarah and Che Figata was the best decision I made for my wedding. Tarah understood my vision instantly. It was like she was in my head. Her creativity, professionalism, and organization are unmatched. She handled every detail and every hiccup so effortlessly that / spent my entire wedding day completely stress-free. The result? Absolute magic.
Chandler & Connor
Tarah was nothing short of phenomenal. She consistently went way above and beyond to help us with every single detail of our wedding. Working with her was a dream come true - everything went perfectly on our wedding day thanks to her. I would recommend working with her to anyone.
