Start the day as you so wish, as the main event won’t start until later in the afternoon. We’ll be getting married at the villa at 16:30, when the light is golden and the sun isn’t trying to melt everyone.

First, we’ll gather for a short ceremony on the terrace at 16:30 (so make sure you’re ready by 16:00-16:15), then ease into the evening with celebratory bubbles and an aperitivo from 17:00. Dinner will be long and leisurely from 19:00, think pasta-filled twirling forks. Expect a few words and a few toasts, followed by a wee boogie to round off the night. Nothing too stuffy, just a warm, relaxed celebration with our families.
