CIAO!
Because one day simply isn't enough, we're getting married on Friday, October 17th, and there will be events in Florence on both Thursday and Saturday evenings.
We've added more information to the "Events" tab, but feel free to reach out to us with any further questions or concerns (or congrats).
We'd appreciate your RSVP to the events no later than August 20th, and can't wait to see you there!

Mezè Wild Dining at Hotel Calimala
Via del Lamberti, 5
Firenze, 50123
Italy
Oct 17
2025
Chiesa di San Salvatore in Ognissanti
Borgo Ognissanti, 42
Firenze, 50123
Italy
Join us as we exchange our vows in one of the oldest and most beautiful churches in Florence.
After the ceremony, guests will be transported via private coach to our reception at Dimora Ghirlandaio - an estate just twenty minutes outside of the city center.
We can't emphasize enough - come hungry. We will be indulging as the Italians do over many courses of food and laughter before dancing the night away (do I hear trumpets?!)
Guests will be escorted into private coaches immediately following the ceremony.
In the evening, coaches will return to central Florence every 30 minutes from 10:30 pm - 1:30 am. We may be biased, but just as the band concludes we invite you to a special afterparty that pays homage to one of our favorite places in England...

TO 7:30 pm
Ristorante Godi Fiorenza
Via Camillo Cavour, 26/28R
Firenze, 50123
Italy
Because we can't get enough of you, we'd love to invite you to one of our favorite Italian traditions: the Aperitivo. We'll be recounting the fond memories of the night before over spritzes and light bites before saying goodbye.
For those of you who want to continue the celebrations, we will be organizing a dinner at the same venue for anyone interested.
For those of you who want to do dinner on your own - we get it! We have no doubt that the celebrations will last into the night should you want to rejoin the celebrations after dinner (or - very reasonably - tuck in.)

Please see the Events page for updated info on all three events!
While we'd LOVE to see you at all three events, please don't feel the pressure to attend if timing doesn't permit. With so many wonderful people coming from all over the globe, we wanted to be sure we had a chance to see and talk to each and every one of you and we're hoping this "spread" will help us to do just that. We'll be requesting RSVP's for all three events within the invitations.
Whilst we love all of your little ones, please note that all three of these events are adult-only affairs.
We recommend booking accommodation in central Florence, and if it's your first time in the "city of lilies" - we recommend staying north of the river to catch all of the sites more conveniently. While you'll be hard-pressed to walk more than 15 minutes to any destination, basing yourself close to the Duomo or Piazza della Repubblica is our recommendation (and 5 minutes apart by foot!). We'd advise you to steer clear of the area immediately surrounding the train station, and please note that accommodation south of the river will add 10-15 minutes to your walk.
There is no shortage of hotels and AirBnB's in a wide range of price points within the city. Having been there now many, many, MANY times, don't be afraid to try some of the smaller, non-chain hotels which are often more conveniently located in the center of the city due to their size. As always, check the reviews, folks! And do look for options with A/C (and send us all of the positive sun vibes while you're at it.)
We've negotiated a 10% discount at Hotel Calimala, where we will be hosting our Welcome Event on the 16th. It's a great option in the center of Florence! You can use the promo code "kelseyandmiguel" when booking to get the discount.
We will provide transportation to and from Dimora Ghirlandaio on Friday.
Shuttles will pick up at the church immediately following the ceremony.
Shuttles back from the villa in the evening will drop off in central Florence. The exact location is still TBD, but will likely be near Piazza della Repubblica, which is the geographic center of Florence.
Florence has a small airport (FLR) with connections to several major European hubs (London, Amsterdam, Paris, Madrid). The airport is a 20-minute taxi from the city center, and also connected directly to the city via tram.
Additionally, Pisa Airport is an hour's drive (1-2 hour train) from Florence and is served by both EasyJet and Ryanair. It's worth noting that Pisa (PSA) is a larger airport and flight searches often direct you there, so here's your gentle reminder to check your airport codes unless you want to do a quick pitstop at the Leaning Tower...
For those coming from within Europe, Florence is also very accessible via train! You can hop on a direct train from either Rome or Milan every 20 minutes or so (travel time is usually around 1h45m). We recommend using Trainline to book those tickets.
