, she had recently suffered from health problems, though it did not give more details.
In Venice she founded her own company in 2009 and became known as the best VIP wedding planner.
She shot to fame after organising the wedding of India's wealthiest daughter, Ritika Agarwal, to her husband Rohan Mehta.
QUEEN OF VENETIAN GLAMOUR The pair invited some 800 guests along for three days of celebrations that cost a reported £7million, paid for by Ritika's iron magnate father Pramod Agarwal.
Five hundred staff were required to keep attendees happy, and Florence and the Machine reportedly performed for the newlyweds.
According to her website, Rioda's other clients included Robert Downey Jr, Tom Cruise, Denzel Washington, Robert De Niro, Steven Spielberg, Will Smith, Ben Stiller and Jamie Foxx.
Another commission in 2017 saw her organise events for Alvaro Morata as he wed fashion blogger Alice Campello with 400 guests invited.
The couple took separate boats to the Basilica del Redentore. Here they swapped vows with each other before taking a tour of Venice's canals.
The pair were then treated to a lavish wedding reception that included a five-tier cake, Cuban cigars and a Cinderella-style carriage made from fairy lights.
