By Marco Piemonte

Imma Grimaldi is “Wedding Planner “and “Vice President of the Association - We Can A.P.S” Onlus for autistic children. For years Imma has been supporting an eco-social project linked to the activity of Wedding Planner. Her ethical values push her to become a promoter of initiatives that protect the environment by combining tradition, nationality, telling the story of each individual people. The eco-sustainable wedding is a ceremony within the ceremony that allows you to transmit an important message to safeguard the planet to the guests, fully understood in Italy as in the green trends of recent years. The awareness of spreading the word sustainability through this action, involving a growing number of people, Imma actually takes care of every detail that it concerns the entire organization of marriage. The Slow Flowers is perfect for organizing weddings in a sustainable way, using for example flowers that they respect the earth’s biological gold, or opt of the Slow Food for catering on fair and natural production strictly at 0 km, no intensive farming production, no use of additives e pesticides. Respect for the environment also concerns the choice of wedding invitations that can be made with of the recycled paper, or special paper that contains plant seeds or unconventional digital wedding invitation, but certainly more ecological. For wedding favors, Imma strongly recommends giving as gifts aromatic seedlings to spread the green thumb of the world. Imma choose locations surrounded by greenery that create a totally natural setting and he illuminate the environment using candles so as not to use fossil energy. The role of the Wedding Planner is also to provide psychological support to future married couples before and during the event, reassuring them in moments of anxiety and concern that may arise due to unexpected natural events such as an earthquake (very frequent lately in Naples) or as happened in recent years with the Covid-19 emergency. The agency’s approach to future spouses is to provide them with a sound sustainable doctrine. The event in addition to the theme of sustainability was born with the aim of bringing as many people as possible to the theme of disability and in particular to autism and serious mental disorders, one sign, of closeness and sharing through the wedding ceremony that manages to break down barriers and to make everyone the same by introducing autistic people into the restaurant world.

The sum raised, after deducting the costs for the organization of the event, is donated entirely to the families of autistic children, to offer financial support to families who sometimes find themselves paying large sums to ensure therapy for their children. Imma is also part of the International Organization Green Hearts Dignity (founded in Italy in 2019 by Marco Piemonte) and is also part of the staff that organizes the Italian event called “The Sustainability March”.
