We recommend staying in Santa Margherita Ligure, Rapallo, or Zoagli. Transportation to and from Santa Margherita and Rapallo will be provided for the wedding ceremony and reception. Zoagli offers a quieter, residential atmosphere and is within walking distance of both the church and the venue. Santa Margherita Ligure and Rapallo provide a wider selection of hotels, restaurants, beach clubs and cafés, and are ideal if you’d like more options and a livelier setting.
Rooms are not reserved in a hotel block. Bella and Ethan, along with their parents, will be staying at the Grand Hotel Bristol, where the Welcome Party will be held. Guests are more than welcome to stay there as well, though we completely understand if you choose accommodations elsewhere.
Our first wedding event will be the Welcome Party on the 27th! Many of our guests plan to arrive in the area on Tuesday or Wednesday that week.
Nothing official! We may plan an impromptu beach day for anyone still in town, but there’s absolutely no pressure to stay.
