We are overjoyed that you’ll be joining us in Italy to celebrate our wedding, and we hope you’ll embrace the opportunity to explore the enchanting city of Rome. There’s a unique magic here— the cobbled streets, ancient architecture, and vibrant neighborhoods. While in Rome, you must visit Da Enzo, one of our favorite hidden treasures. This charming restaurant doesn’t take reservations, so arrive early to experience the warmth of a true Roman trattoria. Be sure to try the carbonara. As you wander through this captivating city, may you feel the same joy and love that we do. We hope you’ll create memories that linger long after you leave the Eternal City.
Lake Garda
As you make your way through Italy for our wedding, we highly recommend spending a day or two at Lake Garda, particularly the enchanting town of Sirmione. We visited Sirmione while touring our wedding venue and fell in love with its beautiful scenery, historic charm and endless options for gelato. Stroll through the picturesque streets, explore the stunning Scaliger Castle, and relax in the thermal waters at the Aquaria Thermal Spa. The waterfront cafes offer a perfect spot to savor local cuisine while enjoying breathtaking views of the lake. We hope you’ll take this opportunity to experience the magic of Lake Garda, just as we did!

Take a leisurely drive through the countryside, where you’ll encounter charming villages, olive groves, and fields of sunflowers. Stop for a tasting at one of the region’s renowned wineries, savoring the world-famous Chianti and Brunello wines. Each sip and every view offers a taste of Tuscany’s rich heritage and passion. Whether you find yourself wandering the medieval streets of Siena, marveling at the art of Florence, or simply enjoying a peaceful moment in the countryside, we hope you’ll fall in love with Tuscany’s warm embrace. It’s a place where time slows down, and life’s simple pleasures become unforgettable.
