Hi There!
We at Amuri, are a group of dreamers and vibrant souls united not only by strong friendship, mutual respect, and professional admiration but also by the love for our native land: Sicily.
​
We are travelers, fascinated by cultural diversity. We are polyglots – speaking Italian, Japanese, English, Spanish, German, Portuguese, and Sicilian! – and we are enthusiastic experts of everything Sicilian.
​
Being Sicilian, but having an international mindset, allows us to create unique business synergies and to translate our curious and positive approach to life into a reliable source of creativity. This assists you, our precious couples, to fulfil your dream of a destination wedding in Sicily.
​
Let’s introduce ourselves…
Barbara
Hi everybody! I'm the founder of Amuri and your events and wedding planner in Sicily!
​
I'm a free spirit with an Asian soul in a Sicilian body.
I strive to improve myself working daily on my personal and spiritual growth. I speak Japanese and several different European languages, refined by living in Japan, The UK, Australia, and Germany. I’m a true cosmopolitan but home is undoubtedly Sicily.
​
With an extensive background within tourism & luxury hospitality management, encompassing many years, I finally decided to combine my professional experience, my passions, and values into my own business and to step into the amazing world of destination wedding planning. I see this as a closing of the perfect circle of who and how I am.
​
My objective is to devote myself to this challenging world of destination weddings and to dedicate myself to what I love in life: helping others to fulfil their dreams and be happy.
​
What do they say about me? “That I am charismatic and attentive, and that I respond elegantly and with enthusiasm to the challenges presented by the world of custom-made experiences.”
​
Share your dream with me in the confidence that I will do my very best to fulfil it.
Our masseur expert & spiritual beauty advisor.
