Walking into Friday and this new month of March like…
For those who’ve been here a while, you know I’m Michelle Durpetti—the force behind Michelle Durpetti Events, as well as the third generation at Gene & Georgetti in Chicago. I’m also an equestrian, lover of fabulous parties, coffee-obsessed, and a vintage Gucci enthusiast.
And while you may know that I’m deeply committed to building bridges between the U.S. and Italy, you may not know that I proudly serve on the Chicago Sister Cities Milan Committee, fostering global, cultural, and business exchanges between Italy and the U.S., and I am a member of the National Italian American Foundation, which strengthens U.S.-Italy relations. Additionally, I am honored to be a Knight of Alba! By representing Italy in multiple ways—including speaking the language fluently when working there to bring gorgeous weddings to life – when I tell you as a couple looking to plan in Italy that I have unique knowledge and insight to the culture and country in addition to being fluent in the language -> I mean it! 🤩👌🏼🇮🇹✨❤️
The photo above, taken by my husband Collin Pierson, is from the top of a mountain in Davos, Switzerland (one of Europe’s highest towns at 1,560m/5,120ft). We were recently at Fuxägufer, a dreamy spot that also hosts weddings! The Privé Retreat was beyond inspiring, and I’m thrilled that we’re officially adding Switzerland to our list of destinations thanks to an amazing three weeks of wonderful relationship building in Italia & Svizzera too! 🇨🇭🤍❤️ Discover the magic of destination weddings in Italy and Switzerland in this post we just shared on the Michelle Durpetti Events blog!
