We are excited to celebrate with the people we love most in a special place. This is going to be a fun, relaxed weekend where we get to spend real time together. We'll be hanging out at the Masseria, which sits on an olive grove in the Puglia countryside, with beaches nearby. We know this is a big trip, and we want you to treat it as a vacation- please feel welcome to come and go as you please. That said, we would absolutely love to share as much of the weekend with you as possible!
No, all guest's accommodations will be covered at Hotel Del Levante, just an 8 minute drive from Narducci, from Thursday-Sunday (3 nights). Accommodations are fully covered at this hotel but you are welcome to book your own if you prefer to stay elsewhere. We will have a shuttle service running each day to bring guests back and forth.
Guests will stay onsite at Hotel Del Levante in Torre Canne, just an 8 minute drive from Masseria Narducci. One of our favorite parts of this celebration is that we will all be together so guests are welcome to hang out at Masseria Narducci any time throughout the weekend. The farmhouse will be fully private for guests to use the pool or explore the olive groves. Hotel Del Levante also has a beach, spa, pool, and restaurant onsite.
Of course- it's Italy! We have planned meals throughout the weekend. Here is what to expect: • Breakfast included in hotel stay each morning • Welcome Dinner on Thursday evening • Wedding Day Lunch on Friday • Reception Dinner on Friday • Day-After Pizza Party Lunch on Saturday
We recommend Bari Airport (BRI). Brindisi (BDS) is also a nearby option. This is a very busy time in the area so we recommend booking your flight as early as possible.
We plan to coordinate airport shuttle services from Bari airport to the hotel on specific times - more to come.
Absolutely. Both airports have major rental companies onsite. Bari is about an hour's drive to the Masseria; Brindisi is under 40 minutes. There will also be a shuttle service that runs from the Masseria to the hotel each day. If you plan to explore the area, a rental car is the best and most reliable option. Taxis are best reserved a few hours prior.
We encourage you to go offsite and explore. The Masseria is perfectly situated for exploring some of the most beautiful spots in Puglia, all within about 30 minutes by car. Here are a few of our favorites: Polignano a Mare: A breathtaking clifftop town above the Adriatic, about 25 minutes away. Known for its dramatic sea views, sea caves, and excellent seafood restaurants overlooking the water. Ostuni (The White City): About 20 minutes away, this stunning hilltop town is one of Puglia's most iconic destinations with great shopping, dining, and views. Alberobello: About 30 minutes away, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is famous for its unique trulli - the iconic whitewashed stone huts with conical roofs. If taxing, it is best to reserve the day before or at least a few hours prior.
The ceremony and reception are planned for outdoors, weather permitting. If weather is nice, we expect to spend lots of time outdoors, hanging out together at the pool.
Expect pleasantly warm weather, with daytime highs around 80°F and evening lows around 69°F. It's a beautiful time of year in Puglia!
There is no dress code - wear whatever! Keep in mind that afternoons at the farmhouse can be warm, while evenings tend to cool down. And don't forget to pack a bathing suit for the pools and beach!
