Who I work best with – and why couples trust me
If you're planning a wedding that’s personal, multicultural, emotional – and anything but ordinary – we might be the perfect match.
I’ve spent the last 18 years on stages across Europe, hosting weddings from intimate garden celebrations to glamorous destination events in Tuscany, Dubai, Cyprus and beyond.
What all these weddings had in common? A story worth telling – and the need for someone who can guide the day with structure, elegance and soul.
I moderate in five languages (Englisch 🇬🇧 | German 🇩🇪 | Russian 🇷🇺 | Ukrainian 🇺🇦 | Polish🇵🇱) read the room intuitively, and create a sense of connection where everyone feels included.
Whether you’re planning heartfelt vows, a vibrant multicultural celebration or a destination wedding under the sun – I’m here to support you with clarity, presence and heart.
Couples trust me not because I follow scripts – but because I listen, adapt and make their story shine.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a Tamada and a modern wedding host?
The term Tamada comes from Eastern traditions and often implies a scripted, directive style. A modern wedding host focuses on elegance, emotional storytelling and multilingual finesse, creating a warm, inclusive atmosphere without clichés or outdated formats.
In which languages do you host weddings?
I host in English, German, Russian, Ukrainian and Polish. Many of my weddings include guests from different countries – I switch languages naturally to make everyone feel included.
Do you offer destination wedding services?
Yes – I specialize in destination weddings across Europe and beyond. From concept and planning to moderation and show elements, I work with my team at Amelia Weddings to create full-service experiences abroad.
How far in advance should we book?
Popular dates (especially Saturdays from May to October) can get booked up 12+ months in advance. But no matter the when, we will always find a solution.
What is your pricing?
Every wedding is unique. I create tailored offers after a personal consultation, based on your location, needs and scope of services. Our first conversation is always free and non-binding.
