Che Figata
Planning a wedding in Italy should be chaos.
New country. New language. A six-hour time difference.
Add in a Type A personality and it should be a meltdown.
Enter Che Figata.
We’re not a wedding agency. We’re the calm in the storm—the planner, creative director, and secret weapon you didn’t know you needed but suddenly can’t live without.
Che Figata is Italian for “How incredible”—but not in the polished, predictable sense. Think chaos, distilled into elegance. Designs that read like luxury brand campaigns. Communication so seamless it feels like texting a best friend who also happens to speak fluent Italian and run the show behind the scenes.
We don’t follow trends—we dismantle them.
We don’t sell fairy tales—we build experiences with teeth.
From rooftops to ruins, forgotten villas to off-grid estates, we create events for those who see tradition as a creative obstacle, not a template. Behind every moment: real planning, real strategy, real execution. No drama. No ego. Just obsessive attention to detail delivered with calm, grounded energy.
Our clients don’t come to us for pretty.
They come to us for precision. For fluency—in culture, design, logistics, and taste.
And for the quiet confidence that says: don’t worry, it’s handled.
Nothing About this is Normal.
EHI, CIAO
So, you found us.
Maybe you’ve been planning this for years. Maybe you just want someone to take the wheel so you don’t lose your mind. Either way—you’re clearly not here for something basic.
I started Che Figata after 12+ years in branding, design, and event strategy because I was done watching great ideas get watered down. I walked away from the 9–5 to build something with teeth—something for people who know what they like and aren’t afraid to make it known.
This isn’t about perfection.
It’s about precision, presence, and pulling off the kind of experience no one else could.
If that sounds like your lane, we’re already speaking the same language.
I’m Tarah
so let’s get to work…
What We Provide
Creative Direction & Planning
Let’s skip the predictable list of services and get to what actually matters: I handle the creative backbone of your event—strategy, visuals, execution—all in one place. No fluff. No filler. Just well-built concepts with sharp edges.
I design and build custom wedding websites that actually reflect your style.
No cookie-cutter templates. No drag-and-drop BS.I create one-of-a-kind art for Save the Dates, Invitations, Menus, and day-of details.
You only pay for printing. The design? 100% yours, and no one else will touch it.
(Oh—and I’m a graphic designer, so it’s done right.)I craft color palettes and full event layouts—from seating to furniture flow to visual rhythm.
Every detail is built to carry weight.Tablescapes? That’s my thing. Vintage dinnerware. Silver-plated brass. Intentional placement. Zero guesswork.
I obsess so you don’t have to.
And just so we’re clear: I’ll help you pick your florals, but I won’t be the one arranging them.
Let’s just say I know my strengths—and I stick to what I’m damn good at.
Italy
But not the postcard version
Yes—there’s pasta, Prosecco, and gelato that’ll ruin you for life. But there’s also the Italy most tourists never touch—and that’s where I come in.
After a decade living in Tuscany, fluent in the language and fully embedded in the culture, I’ve worked across luxury fashion, music, events, and marketing in places most guides won’t lead you. I know the villa owners. The chefs without websites. The views that don’t come with crowds.
That’s why I don’t offer “tours.” I design experiences—raw, real, and custom-built for English speakers who want access without the clichés.
Ready to see the Italy that insiders keep to themselves?
Let’s get you there.
The Carolinas
Without the Southern Sweet
Rolling hills. Cinematic forests. Autumn light so good it doesn’t need a filter. This place isn’t just photogenic—it’s a design playground.
I bring an Italian eye to Carolina soil: sharp details, clean lines, and that under-the-radar elegance that feels effortless but hits hard. No frills, no fluff—just timeless design with real presence.
If you want an Italian vibe without hopping a flight, you’re in the right hands.
Let’s build something that looks like a scene but feels like you.
