Benvenuti in Italia!
We are both so excited to share this special milestone with our nearest and dearest in Tuscany.
Having visited Italy a few times on our own as well as with friends, we have fallen in love with this incredible country that now holds a very special place in our hearts.
We are counting down the days until our family and friends unite for an unforgettable weekend to celebrate with eating, drinking and dancing the nights away.

We would highly recommend staying in Borgo a Mozzano from Thursday September 1 - Monday September 5, as we are planning wedding festivities on the Friday and Sunday.
We recommend flying into one of the following airports.
Airport Distance (by car) to Villa Catureglio (town of Borgo a Mozzano):
Pisa Airport to Villa Catureglio: 1 hour
Florence Airport to Villa Catureglio: 1 hour 45 minutes
Milan Airport to Villa Catureglio: 3 hours 45 minutes

Getting to Borgo a Mozzano
Please let us know if you will not be renting a car and require a taxi/shuttle service to your accommodation (Villa Catureglio or other) and we will be happy to coordinate this with our planner.
Important Note
For those staying in Villa Catureglio (wedding venue), we will be reaching out to you separately to organize your accommodation. For all those who are not staying in the Villa, we strongly encourage that you stay within the town of Borgo a Mozzano. This is the town where the Villa is located and where all the wedding festivities will be taking place. In this beautiful little town, there are no taxis/cabs and minimal public transportation.
We will be organizing complimentary shuttle services to and from Villa Catureglio during the 3-days. Should you wish to stay further out from Borgo a Mozzano that is not a problem, however, you will need to coordinate your own travel to and from Villa Catureglio.
As early September is still high season in Tuscany, we recommend that you book your accommodation as soon as possible for the best rates and availability.
