How do I get to the wedding?
We recommend flying into Florence or Rome airports. From there, you can take one of 3 routes to the venue:
-
From Rome-Fiumicino Airport, you can rent a car to drive 2 hrs and 30 mins to the venue and your accommodation. Or you can catch a train to Florence for 2 hrs and 30 mins.
-
From Florence Airport (FLR), you can rent a car or book a private transfer to drive 1 hrs and 40 mins to the venue and your accommodation. Or you can catch a train to Siena from Florence city centre for 1 hr and 30 mins.
-
From Siena, you can rent a car or book a private transfer to drive 40 mins to the venue and your accommodation.
We highly recommend downloading the Trenitalia app if you will be catching the train.
Where should I stay during the wedding?
As our wedding will be held in a small and regional town, we have rented three charming and affordable villas across the 4 days close to our wedding venue so that you can join us throughout the week.
Your villa assignment, costs and rooms will be shared when all RSVPs have been confirmed.
Rest assured that everyone will be accommodated with familiar friends and family.
Do I need to be there for all 4 days?
While we'd love to spend as much time with you as we can, we understand if you have different travel plans. When you fill in the RSVP form, you can let us know which days you'd like to attend. Either way, we can't wait to celebrate with you!
I'd like to join the extra events! What else should I know?
For each event outside of the wedding, we ask each guest for a supplementary fee to cover the cost of activities and catering. We've ensured these costs are in line with the standard cost of food, drinks and tours in the region. Below is an estimated cost of each activity per person:
-
Welcome dinner – 3 courses, including drinks: €45
-
Tour around Tuscany: €75
-
Rehearsal dinner – 3 courses, including drinks: €50
-
Recovery party, including pizza and drinks: €45
If you have any questions or suggestions, let's chat!
How do I get to and from each day's events?
We will be arranging a complimentary chartered bus to transport guests to and from their accommodations at each event, including throughout the evening of the wedding. If you prefer you drive your own car, there is ample parking at the wedding venue, vineyards and dinner venues, as well as paid parking spots in the town centres.
Is there a dress code?
We encourage you to wear anything that makes you feel good! The average temperature in June in Tuscany reaches 30°C in the day and 17°C in the evening. Dress in any way to make the most of each occasion – eating, drinking, swimming, dancing, and enjoying la dolce far niente!
Can I bring a gift?
We know a destination wedding is an enormous commitment of your time and finances. The greatest gift we could ask for is the pleasure of your company to celebrate our love with those most special to us. We do not expect any other gifts.
I need to know more!
We'd love to share more! As guests let us know if they can come to each event, we'll continue to plan and share more details on this website. Rest assured, by the time you hop on your flight, you'll have all the information you need to have the ultimate Tuscan adventure.
Your company and love will make our special day complete. We hope you'll join us in Tuscany at the beginning of our next big life adventure.
