Our celebration begins the evening before the wedding with a warm, intimate Welcome Dinner. This event is our way of thanking each of you for traveling across the world to be with us. Imagine gathering under twinkling lights on a terrace, sharing wine and pasta, and catching up with loved ones.

Italian Summer Formal: Think elegant, romantic, and European-inspired attire. Flowing dresses, tailored suits, and breathable fabrics like linen or silk are encouraged.
This is the heart of the weekend, the moment when we say “I do.” The ceremony will take place at a beautiful Villa di Striano, surrounded by sweeping views of Italy’s timeless landscape. We envision an atmosphere filled with love, elegance, and joy, where every guest feels part of something sacred.

Once we’ve sealed our vows with a kiss, it’s time to celebrate! Cocktail hour will feature signature drinks inspired by our love story and passed hors d’oeuvres highlighting Italian flavors. Think Aperol spritzes, sparkling prosecco, and small bites like bruschetta, arancini, and charcuterie.
7:15 pm
Following cocktail hour, we’ll transition into our reception, a night filled with food, laughter, and dancing. The reception will begin with a plated multi-course Italian dinner prepared with fresh, seasonal ingredients. From handmade pasta to local wines, we want the meal to feel like a true Italian experience. After dinner, we’ll move to the dance floor for toasts, music, and celebrations late into the night. Expect a mix of classic wedding songs, cultural favorites, and tunes that will keep everyone on their feet. We’ve worked with our DJ to create a playlist that reflects our personalities and ensures every generation has their moment to shine.
