Ciao Lauren!
It was so great meeting you, and I’m really excited about the possibility of working together on your Portugal destination wedding at Pousada Mosteiro de Amares during the week of September 5th, 2027.
Because I’m looking to expand my business into Portugal, I’m happy to offer you 25% off my planning packages. I truly appreciate couples who are willing to trust me as I grow into a new region.
All packages below are fully inclusive and already include my travel and accommodation, as well as vendor research and on-site scouting if needed. If I feel a site visit or vendor scouting trip would benefit the planning process, I’ll handle organizing and covering those costs myself as an investment in expanding my work in Portugal. In other words, you won’t need to research to vet vendors, I’ll take care of that.
As your destination planner, my role is to organize the moving pieces, guide vendors, and make sure everything runs smoothly so you can stay present and enjoy the celebration.
Below you’ll find custom service options designed specifically for your wedding at Pousada Mosteiro de Amares for 130–150 guests.
Con amore,
Tarah
Sono Tarah, planner, designer and creative director of Che Figata.
For the past fifteen years, I’ve worked in marketing, 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.

Client Words.
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. No matter how wild my ideas were, she had my back and executed everything flawlessly.
Tarah became so much more than a planner. 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.

There are not enough words to express how grateful we are to have chosen Che Figata for our planning needs. Tarah is fantastic! Organized, timely, responsive, supportive, knowledgeable and thorough. She is also insanely creative with design! Tarah was able to think of every aspect and possible outcome for our wedding day and planned ahead for everything! I did not have a worry in the world during our special day (and I am a huge control freak) - My husband and I were able to enjoy our day with no concerns or reservations. Our day turned out beautifully and it was a HUGE wedding (260 guests). I will be recommending Che Figata to everyone who needs an event planner!
sarah & christianShe'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. She's positive, composed, and quietly running the entire show behind the scenes.
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.
