The Big Day (& Shays Mums birthday)
Brunch will be served throughout the morning, because who doesn’t love breakfast & Prosecco?
Then it’s time to glam up for the main event!
We’ll exchange our vows, followed by a lively aperitivo on the terrace, soaking in the beautiful views.
Next, enjoy a fabulous four-course dinner in the courtyard, where laughter and tears are not compulsory but likely.
Its an Italian tradition to open the floor for speeches, if you feel like you’ll have something to say, please fill in the form below.
And don’t forget—get your dancing shoes ready for an epic night of celebration!

The After Party
Join us for a recovery brunch to ease into the day.
Then, it’s time for some fun by the pool, laughter, and maybe a splash or two!
We’ll wrap up the weekend with a BBQ from 4 PM until the stars come out, because what’s a party without some good food?

The need to knows
Accommodation
The venue we have chosen is a gem in the Italian countryside and is very rural; with this in mind, we would prefer for everyone to stay on site, so get ready for a weekend getaway!
Sadly kids aren’t invited so please get your babysitters ready!
Food & Drink
Food and drinks will be included throughout the weekend, hopefully enough to keep us from being thirsty, but there is a bar and restaurant on site if you need a little extra
