Will transportation be provided to the venue?

Yes! Transportation will be provided on the wedding day. A bus will take guests to the ceremony and will also provide return transportation after the reception. We will provide the exact pick-up location closer to the wedding day, but it will be near Piazza Santa Maria Novella. We recommend booking a hotel near this piazza for convenience.

Where should we stay?

Transportation will be provided to the ceremony and back after the reception. The bus pick-up location will be near the Piazza Santa Maria Novella, so we highly recommend staying in this area. While we do not have a formal room block, we recommend the following hotels: Grand Hotel Minerva, The Place Firenze, Hotel Santa Maria Novella, Hotel L'Orologio Firenze, Hotel Garibaldi Blu, Grand Hotel Baglioni, and Hotel Rosso 23. Please refer to the Travel page for any available hotel discount codes. Short-term rentals through Airbnb or Vrbo are also great options.

Are children invited to the wedding?

While we absolutely understand that many of our guests may choose to travel to Italy with their children, we kindly ask that our wedding celebration be an adults-only event. We adore your little ones and hope this can be a special date night—or even a relaxing getaway—for you! If it would be helpful, our wedding planner would be happy to assist in coordinating trusted local babysitting services during the festivities. Please feel free to reach out to us for more information.

What is the attire for the wedding?

We kindly request black-tie attire for our wedding. For gentlemen, this means a tuxedo, and for ladies, a long, formal dress. We’re excited for an elegant evening celebrating together and can’t wait to see everyone dressed for the occasion!

Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?

Weather permitting, the ceremony and cocktail hour will be held outdoors. Dinner and dancing will subsequently take place inside Villa Corsini. In the event of inclement weather, all activities will be moved indoors.
