FAQs

Question

How does the stay work?

Answer

We’re excited to be able to host guests onsite at La Dogana. The cost of a three-night stay (all meals + alcohol included) will be a one time payment of $400 per person. This will be paid to the venue via PayPal after you RSVP 'yes'. Our venue has 12 apartments ranging from one to two bedrooms. We have a master list of all available rooms and as families RSVP, we will be assigning rooms. Some of our friends may be asked to stay together in apartments if flexible. We ask that you let us know your preference when you RSVP.

Question

When do we need to RSVP and pay by?

Answer

The final date to RSVP and pay by is October 1, 2025. Please note that our venue is unable to offer any refunds once the payment is made, so please be sure before RSVPing 'yes' and submitted your payment. If you know you definitely cannot attend, please RSVP "no" as soon as possible so we can maintain an accurate headcount and extend additional +1s with as much notice as we can. Once you RSVP via this website, you will be sent a PayPal link to submit payment. You will also receive a form to complete for dietary restrictions, housing preferences, etc.

Question

Can I stay longer after the wedding is over?

Answer

Unfortunately, you will be unable to continue your stay at La Dogana after the wedding weekend is complete. We do recommend extending your trip and exploring Italy if you are able!

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Josh & Brookland would love for all of their guests to stay onsite at La Dogana to maximize time spent with their guests. However, if you wish to stay off site, we can recommend nearby villas or bnbs! If you choose to stay offsite, we recommend renting a car to get to and from La Dogana as there is not Uber in the countryside!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

We'd love for everyone to be able to celebrate with us, but our venue space is very limited, so we are only able to invite those listed on your invitation.

Question

Will there be food?

Answer

All meals from the pasta welcome meal upon arrival at the venue to our goodbye breakfast at departure will be included in your stay! Additionally, alcoholic beverages will be included during all three dinners.

Question

Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?

Answer

We are planning for a fully outdoor experience. If weather does not permit this, we have an indoors rain plan at the venue.

Question

How do I get to the castle?

Answer

We recommend renting a car or arriving to the Terontola - Cortona train station from a major airport. Please visit the "Travel" section to learn more!

Question

What is the weather like?

Answer

The average weather in April in Italy is around 63F. Please plan to bring a light jacket as the evenings can get chilly!

Question

Do I have to attend all events?

Answer

All events other than the wedding are optional. Josh and Brookland would love to have you at each event to maximize time spent with you!

Question

What do I need to bring?

The venue and apartments come equipped with a washing machine, iron & ironing board, bed linens, bathroom towels, hair dryer, soap, and shampoo.
