After being really good friends for 5 years in Nashville, we began dating as travel nurses on an assignment in Denver, CO in 2020. Since then we have traveled to over 10 countries together, getting engaged in Banff, Canada on St. Patrick's Day 2024. Between our love for travel and Tony being half Italian, a destination wedding in Italy became an easy decision. Castello di Ristonchi will exclusively host our 3 day wedding celebration June 10-13, 2025. This medieval castle was built in 900 AD overlooking beautiful rolling hills. Ristonchi lies in the middle of a chestnut forest and consists of olive groves, hemp fields, beehives, vineyards and fruit trees to contribute to the sustainability they pride themselves on. We deeply understand that a destination wedding (especially an international one) is an enormous ask of our guests. We hope that if you choose to join us, you will look at this as an opportunity to travel to Italy and enjoy a vacation (with our wedding celebration as the icing on the cake). We've tried to make things as easy as possible for you by working with Ristonchi to provide your housing during the duration of the wedding event. If you choose to join us for the multi- day wedding, then all accommodations and meals for the three days will be included in a one time reservation fee ($350.00/per guest). This price will include your lodging and meals for the three days. In addition to the traditional wedding evening, we will be hosting events throughout the weekend-- including a welcome pizza making dinner, a pasta making class, pool party, etc. To make travel a bit easier- we will set up roundtrip transportation from Florence to Ristonchi for those that will need it.
