Singing Celebrant • Mindful Yoga Teacher • Wedding Professional

Rossana | Roxy Rimmel

Based in Milan, Italy, I am an international communication specialist devoted to luxury weddings and intimate celebrations. Hearty, cheerful and deeply committed to flawless results, I bring an efficient yet serene energy to every event. Strengthened by over 20 years of experience, I have curated 130 prestigious celebrations at breathtaking venues across Lake Como, Garda, Venice, Tuscany and beyond, starting as a planner before evolving into a celebrant. My philosophy bridges meticulous event organisation with a warm, joyful, and relaxed atmosphere.

From Diplomatic Protocol to Bespoke Ceremonies

My career is built on a diverse foundation of high-profile PR and international event management. Based in Italy, I've lived in Spain and Michigan, deepening my love for different cultures and my language knowledge and my clientele has always been international. Since 2006, I have coordinated everything from exhibition fairs and fashion shows to diplomatic missions for the Mayor of Milan and wellness retreats. Writing official diplomatic speeches naturally evolved into crafting custom wedding scripts, merging my passion for storytelling with my love for live vocal performance and yogic mindful well-being.
