The ceremony will be held on the beach, followed by a reception on the terrace at Sale e Pepe.
No! The entirety of our wedding will be held at one destination, so transportation will not be needed from the ceremony to the reception. The venue is affiliated with a hotel, so you can spend your entire evening in one place! If you choose to stay elsewhere, there are numerous local hotels that are within walking distance, as well as some options off island.
Both our ceremony and reception will be taking place outside. Early May on Marco Island reaches about 85 degrees, cooling down to the 70s in the evenings.
While we love your loved ones, we are having an intimate gathering with a small guest list. Unless a plus one is specified on your invitation, we will not be able to accommodate them at our wedding. Additionally, aside from our nephew, our wedding will be child-free. We hope you take the opportunity to enjoy a date night with us!
The dress code is beach formal! We ask that you dress in pastel tones- think sunset! Blues, pinks, purples, oranges, yellows, and neutrals. Please avoid colors traditionally reserved for the bride (white, ivory, cream, champagne, etc.), as well as dark or bold colors (red, black, etc.). If you want to avoid matching our bridesmaids (not a necessity!), they will be wearing light blue.
We have chosen a varied menu that we hope you enjoy! There will be a place to mark dietary restrictions when you choose your entrée and we will do our best to ensure you have something delicious for dinner.
Drinks are on us! Please (responsibly) enjoy an open bar throughout the night!
You're in the right place! You can RSVP on this website. If you received a Save the Date, you do not need to wait for a formal invitation to respond. We are happy to hear from you! Please RSVP by 3/1/27 at the latest. If we have not heard from you by that date, we will assume that you are unable to join us.
We do! We are registered with Zola, so our registry is accessible right from this site! With an upcoming move for residency, in lieu of the traditional items, if you choose to give us a gift, we ask that you contribute to one of our funds. We would love additional funding for our dream honeymoon, towards purchasing our first home, and for a new car once we move! Your presence at our wedding is the only gift we need though!
Please feel free to reach out to Abby or Brenden with further questions!
