Renzo was born in Murano, Italy, the island where the famous glassblowers create unique glass masterpieces. Renzo completed formal training as a tour guide at The Technical Institute of Francesco Algarotti (an Institute for tourism and language training in Venice, Italy). However, Renzo decided to take a different direction…he decided to open his own ‘bomboniere’ company. Bomboniere is a typical Italian tradition that refers to confetti and party favours used at weddings and other special occasions. Renzo was a bomboniere supplier!

Years later, he decided to utilize is tourism training gained in the past to re-enter into the tourism industry. Renzo worked as a boat captain on a traditional Venetian fishing boat called, an “abragozzo”. He conducted tours of the Venetian lagoon and the famous islands of Venice: Murano, Burano and Torcello for six years. Then, Renzo met Lindsey and, eventually, they got married. Together, they launched Venice Events.
