“Before the Big I Do” – Diana Da Ros presents her book in New York City

Everything you never thought could happen before, during and after a wedding. Stories of couples, traditions, adventures and misadventures, curiosities and unexpected events, told through the eyes of who gives shape to emotions on a couple’s most important day.

This is “Before the Big I Do”, the first book by Diana Da Ros, an International luxury wedding & event planner with more than 15 years of experience in organizing weddings and events in Italy and worldwide.

After the great success of the Book’s Press preview in Milan at Mudec Bistrot with Enrico Bartolini Michelin star chef first and then a special event in Naples at the elegant venue Scotto Jonno with VIP guests like Pasquale Palamaro Michelin star chef, Nello Iervolino celebrity Pastry chef, Dj Guinness Ivan Romano, Dora Esposito influencer and writer, Giovanni Sparacio from Elle magazine, last week Diana presented her book in Tribeca, New York, in a luxury rooftop lounge, in conversation with Nadia Carta, AI & Data transformation manager at Google, Entrepreneur & founder Spark Your Zeal.

A special event in collaboration with Spark your Zeal and Events by Jesse and Nio cocktails and with VIP guests such as the entrepreneur, writer and producer Jestina Weems, Angie Valentino, the celebrity make-up artist based in New York, Ron Ferraro Software entrepreneur from Las Vegas, Pasquale Martinelli, the Italian celebrity private chef based in New York and many more.

During the conversation, many background stories emerged, which constitute some of the funniest pages of the book, but also relationships with top-level professionals, set designers, make-up artists, photographers, flower designers and others with whom the author works and at the same time, has developed strong friendships.

A bit like saying that the secret (or one of the secrets) to carrying out this job in the best possible way consists of putting all of yourself into what you do. Passions and emotions return in the book almost in every chapter: through the memory of painful and dramatic experiences, misadventures or very touching situations from which Diana has been able, over the years, to learn and draw lessons and great positivity. Planning Weddings and Special events is not only a job, for Diana, it’s a mission; she takes extreme care of every single aspect of the event, ensuring their customers have the best experience of their lives. The book has a lot about her private and professional life; it’s a story about passion and dedication, Love for Love, and different traditions and cultures. It’s a collection of many stories that happened “behind the scenes”, about those things that couples will never see or know during their weddings.

The importance of teamwork always emerges, and in this book, you will find hilarious situations in various weddings that Diana planned over the years from the North to the South of Italy and from East to West in the world. During the presentation in New York City, Nadia Carta happily brought back memories about 2016 when she hired Diana to be her wedding planner for her destination wedding in Puglia, which took place in the fantastic Masseria Torre Coccaro in 2017 and how Diana also organized her one of a kind 40th bday party at Le Capase Resort in Puglia in 2021.

As happened between Nadia and Diana, the bride and the wedding planner often become friends, and sometimes it is a truly special friendship like this one. Nadia Carta was also pleased to announce during the event in New York that her “11 Ways to Spark your Zeal” book will be published soon, also in Italian.
