FAQs

Question

Is the Welcome Event, Ceremony, & Reception all at the same place?

Answer

Yes! Our events will take place at Villa Regina Teodolinda in Laglio, Province of Como, Italy. Google Maps lists the venue at Villa Vecchia Regina 58; Apple Maps lists it as Villa Regina 58. Both point to the same villa—please use the address that works best for your device.

Question

Which day do I attend?

Answer

Both days and all events are an essential part of our celebration! To make the most of our time with loved ones in Italy, we've planned a two-day event that will create lasting memories. For a breakdown of each day's activities, please check our Schedule section.

Question

Will the wedding/ welcome party be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

Both! Our welcome party will primarily take place outdoors, therefore ensure you bring a coat to keep you warm as the sun sets. Our ceremony and reception will take place outdoors until 8 p.m., where we will move the party indoors with the DJ due to sound restrictions in Lake Como.

Question

What type of weather can we expect in October?

Answer

In October, expect classic autumn weather across northern Italy, particularly in Milan and Lake Como. Daytime temperatures will range from the high 50s to mid-60s, with cooler evenings dipping into the low 50s.

Question

What happens if it rains?

Answer

Rain or shine, our celebration will continue! In the event of inclement weather, our dinner and reception will move indoors, ensuring a perfect day no matter what nature has in store. If rain is in the forecast, we recommend bringing umbrellas.

Question

Is there a color palette/dress code?

Answer

Yes! We invite our guests to embrace the enchanting, moody ambiance of Lake Como during its stunning fall season. Check out our Dress Code section!

Question

Where will I stay?

Answer

We've carefully curated a list of recommended accommodations in our Travel section, featuring highly rated hotels and Airbnbs across Lake Como. While we haven't reserved a room block, you're welcome to choose lodging that best suits your preferences and comfort. Laglio: For the most convenient experience and proximity to our venue, we recommend staying in this village. Airbnbs offer more flexibility here and may even be within walking distance to the venue. Keep in mind hotel options are limited in this intimate location, but we highly recommend exploring available options. Cernobbio: After our celebration, all boat guests will be dropped off at the Cernobbio ferry station, conveniently located near numerous hotels and Airbnbs. This location offers an ideal balance, with just a 7-10 minute drive to our venue and a 25-minute drive to Como City center. Como City: While offering the most extensive range of accommodations across all budgets, Como City is approximately a 35-minute drive from our venue. Regardless of where you choose to stay, we strongly advise scheduling a dedicated taxi drop-off and pick-up service. Public transportation and ride-sharing options are limited in the area, particularly during evening hours.

Question

What is the best way to travel around Lake Como?

Answer

Exploring Lake Como is best accomplished with a rental car as it provides the most flexibility, especially when traveling from Milan or navigating the northern region's charming villages. For those preferring not to drive, ferries offer an scenic alternative, with all-day passes typically ranging from 15-30 Euros. Water taxis, and ground transportation are also an alternative. For an elevated experience, private boat tours are available in various towns around the lake. We recommend checking our Travel and Things To Do sections for more detailed information. When planning your transportation, keep in mind that ride-sharing and public transit can be limited, particularly during evening hours. For the most reliable travel experience—especially on our wedding day—we suggest booking taxi services in advance or coordinating carpooling with your travel companions.

Question

Can I bring a guest or my travel companion to the wedding?

Answer

Question

Can I take pictures during the ceremony?

Answer

We kindly request that you allow our professional photographer to capture the special moments of our ceremony. If taking pictures or videos we ask guest to be mindful and limit phone usage, keeping photography discreet during this intimate time. After the ceremony, we welcome and encourage you to take plenty of photos throughout our wedding celebration!
