The new office will focus on providing experiential campaigns for leading luxury lifestyle brands and affluent private clients, as well as wedding design and planning.
The office adds to Quintessentially Events' global portfolio of office locations, which includes set-ups in Dubai, Hong Kong, Geneva and Cote d’Azur.
Milan will be spearheaded by Giulia Giradi and Valeria Bertei, with Giulio Zambeletti acting as chairman of Quintessentially Events Milan.
Giradi, who will take on the role of events and marketing manager, has previously worked on events for designers such as Dolce & Gabbana and Stella McCartney at Bulgari’s hotel in Milan. Bertei has been hired as wedding and events manager and comes from London PR and events agency The Communications Store.
Anabel Fielding, founder and chief executive of Quintessentially Events, said: "Since the launch of Quintessentially Events & Weddings in London in 2005, the high-end, international wedding market has shown consistent growth year on year, with occasions now running over several days, at amazing locations around the world and ever-increasing in size, profile and scale.
"With so many of our clients looking to find the perfect location, we have been poised to open a dedicated office in Italy. We are very excited to partner with Giulio and his team in Milan now where we hope to mix fabulous local ingredients with stunning venues, seasoned planning experience and our standard commitment for service excellence."
