We truly couldn’t have imagined a more perfect wedding planner. From our very first conversation to our wedding day, everything was handled with so much care, creativity, and attention to detail. Every step of the planning process made us feel completely supported. Our wedding at Son Marroig in Mallorca was everything we had dreamed of and we were able to enjoy every single moment thanks to the flawless organization. Thank you for turning our vision to life and creating memories we will cherish forever!

Hiring Cygnus Events was one of the best decisions we made for our destination wedding in Mallorca! Planning a wedding from Canada could have felt overwhelming, but Irene and Viviana made the entire process seamless from beginning to end. From our very first conversation, Irene and Viviana were incredibly responsive, organized, and attentive to every detail. Despite the distance and time difference, they made us feel completely supported throughout the entire planning process. No question was ever too small, and they consistently went above and beyond to ensure every decision was thoughtful and every detail was taken care of. When we arrived in Spain, everything came together flawlessly. Their professionalism, calm presence, and incredible coordination allowed us to truly be present and enjoy every moment. They anticipated our needs before we even had to ask and made our vision come to life more beautifully than we could have imagined. What impressed us most is that their care didn’t end when the wedding was over. Even after the celebrations, Irene and Viviana continued to stay in touch, check in on us, and assist with anything we needed. That level of dedication and genuine care is incredibly rare and speaks volumes about the kind of people they are. Our wedding exceeded every expectation and was everything we had dreamed of—and so much more. We are forever grateful to Irene, Viviana, and the entire Cygnus Events team for creating an unforgettable experience that our family and friends will be talking about for years to come. If you’re planning a destination wedding in Mallorca, I cannot recommend Cygnus Events highly enough. Their expertise, passion, warmth, and commitment to their couples are truly second to none!

Irene, thank you so much for everything you did for us. Thank you will never feel like enough for everything you put into making our wedding day so special. Over the past nine months of planning, you were there every step of the way. You made the whole process feel so much easier, always taking the time to answer our questions, offer advice, and make sure every detail was covered. I always felt so comfortable throughout the process and had complete trust in you, which meant I could genuinely enjoy our wedding day knowing everything was in safe hands. You understood our vision from the very beginning and brought it to life in a way that was even better than we imagined. Every detail came together so beautifully, and we’ll never forget it. A huge thank you to Viviana as well. You were such an important part of making everything run so smoothly, and we’re so grateful for all the hard work and support you gave us throughout the day. The two of you made such a fantastic team. Irene, you are such a lovely person, and I truly believe you were made for wedding planning. Your care, organisation, and attention to detail are second to none. We’re so grateful to you both for everything you’ve done. Our wedding day was everything we hoped for and more, and we couldn’t recommend you highly enough.

Warm regards, Felicia & Matthias

I could not have asked for a more relaxed and easy wedding planning process! Everything was perfect from start to finish and we had a wonderful day. Viviana is kind, easy to work with, and worked tirelessly to make sure everything we wanted and needed was in place. Planning a wedding abroad can be daunting, but I couldn't have asked for a better coordinator! So happy to have worked with Viviana and would highly recommend to anyone.

Viviana is an extraordinary professional and an even more remarkable person. What makes her unique is the way she combines competence with genuine human care she listens, understands, and is always ready to support with kindness and dedication. She goes far beyond the role of an event organizer, becoming a true point of reference for anyone who has the privilege of working with her. Fluent in Italian, English, and Spanish, Viviana bridges cultures effortlessly and creates a warm, trusting environment for everyone around her. She is one of those rare people who make a real difference, and I can only recommend meeting her at least once in your life. Cygnus Event is very fortunate to have her on their team.

My husband and I are from the UK, we knew the only way we could marry in Mallorca and it be everything we’d dreamt of was if we hired a wedding planner. We found Cygnus when viewing our wedding location, Son Marriog. Viviana Fortunato was incredible from the beginning. She is experienced, warm, responsive and guided us through every step with such ease. She truly took the stress away from wedding planning that every bride and groom expect to experience. On our wedding day, the weather took a turn which meant the plan to eat outside was no longer an option, Viviana kept us informed throughout the day and on the night and did everything she could (& more) to ensure we still had our magical wedding. Every guest commented on how incredible Viviana was at her job. It was all so seamless when I know they were running around in the background to move tables, rearrange place settings etc. due to the last minute changes. If you’re thinking of marrying in Mallorca, you would be crazy not to work with this team. We’re very grateful for Viviana and wouldn’t have the memories we have now, without her.

Viviana is the kind of wedding planner you dream of without even knowing it. A rare soul who doesn’t just organize your wedding—she gently, patiently, and lovingly walks with you through every step of it. She took the time to truly understand me—not just my taste, but me. How I operate, what overwhelms me, how I make decisions. From there, she quietly built a structure around me that allowed me to breathe, to enjoy, and to trust the process without feeling pressure. She’s calm and kind, always with a smile and the right words, but behind that gentleness is a woman with incredible strength and clarity. Her timelines are flawless, her follow-ups precise, and her care unmatched. If you’re lucky enough to work with her, respect her process, her guidelines, and her timings—because she will treat your day with the same devotion, attention, and pride as if it were her own. I’m someone who doesn’t let people in easily, but Viviana tore down all my walls without even trying. With her, I felt safe. Understood. Completely supported. Never judged, always cared for. And then came the wedding day… and I saw her transform. Sweet, warm Viviana became an absolute boss—firm, decisive, completely in control. She protected every detail, every moment, and she did it with grace and strength that made me feel everything would be perfect. And it was. So much so, that without hesitation, I handed her my bridal bouquet.

No tengo palabras suficientes para agradecer todo lo que hicieron por nosotros. Desde el primer momento. Gracias Irene por todo, por tu dedicación, paciencia y cariño. El día de la boda fue mágico, tal como lo soñamos, y todo gracias a ella. Si están buscando a alguien que planifique su boda con el corazón, no duden en elegirla. ¡Es un ángel con talento!
