New YouTube Episode Now Live

At Michelle Durpetti Events, we believe that excellence doesn’t happen by accident—it’s built through experience, passion, and perspective. And sometimes? Through a healthy dose of losing.

In the latest episode on my YouTube channel, I’m getting personal. I share what a lifetime in the show ring as an equestrian has taught me—not just about competing, but about resilience, leadership, and the value of every single experience, even (and especially) the ones that don’t end with a ribbon.

Spoiler alert: I lose more than I win.

And that’s exactly why I chase the win—and celebrate it deeply when it comes. That hunger, that discipline, that ability to fall, learn, and get back in the ring is the same mindset I bring to my life as a destination wedding planner, a third-generation restaurateur, and an entrepreneur.

On YouTube, I’m not just sharing beautiful weddings and behind-the-scenes footage (though you’ll find plenty of that, too). I’m inviting you into the real-life moments that shape how I plan, lead, and live—with intention, grit, and a touch of glamour.

 

 

Topics on my YouTube channel include:

  • Destination wedding planning tips
  • Life as a wedding planner & business owner
  • Lessons from the equestrian world
  • Hospitality insights from the restaurant industry
  • Travel inspiration + planning
  • Entrepreneurship and creative leadership

We’re almost at 50 subscribers and aiming for our first 100!

If you’ve ever wondered what goes into curating luxury experiences around the world, what it really means to be a planner (not just on wedding day), or what horses can teach you about handling pressure—this is the channel for you.

Whether I’m in the ring, designing a celebration in Florence, or updating the wine list at Gene & Georgetti, I believe in showing up with passion, precision, and purpose.

Thank you for being part of the ride.
