We will be celebrating at Castello Il Palagio, a medieval Tuscan castle from the 13th century (pictured above). The castle is located in the Chianti countryside, overlooking the majestic hills with vineyards and olive groves, not far from the city of Florence.
Yes, the dress code is black tie. For men, this usually means a tuxedo (or a very dark suit with a tie or bow tie). For women, it means a floor length evening dress. The ceremony and cocktail hour will be held in the castle's beautiful gardens, so please choose your footwear accordingly! Here are a few few places in Florence that rent tuxedos: - Sogno di Sposa - Valore Sposi - Laura Romagnoli Atelier
We are not allowing additional plus-ones, as we'd like to keep the guest list just to those who know us well. The name of every guest invited to attend is clearly listed on our RSVP page and no additional guests can be accommodated due to the venue's capacity.
We’ve hired a professional photographer to capture all the special moments, so we ask that you leave the photos to them during the ceremony and enjoy the celebration unplugged. Feel free to take pictures during the reception!
We are planning to have the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception outdoors. We have a backup plan in case of inclement weather. If needed, we'll move indoors and let you know in advance.
