We're getting married!

Ryan Marlega

and

Sarah Hjelsand

Tuscany

Italy

June 16

2026

Welcome!

Ryan and I fell in love with Italy on our engagement trip in May 2024, when we spent time in a quiet town on Lake Como called Dervio. From the espresso, to the many plates of beef tartar for Ryan, and the amazing scenery, we knew we wanted to go back someday. When we got back home, we ran through a few venue options in the U.S. as we started to plan our wedding. Ideally, we knew we wanted a smaller, destination wedding with close family and friends in a beautiful place. After finding prices for venues in the U.S., and overwhelmed with how much planning would be involved, Ryan suggested eloping with a company that specialized in destination weddings. Then, we found out how many of our friends would be willing to accompany us (many more than expected!). We hope you can join us at San Galgano Abbey, the venue that checked all of our boxes (accommodations included + open bar) in the beautiful Tuscan countryside of Italy.
