Yes! We completely understand that traveling to Italy isn’t possible for everyone, and we still want the chance to celebrate with those who can’t attend the wedding. We’ll be planning a post-wedding celebration back home, with all the details to follow once plans are finalized.

Yes. A valid passport is required for travel to Italy. If you don’t already have one, we recommend applying well in advance of the wedding. If you already have a passport, please confirm that it won’t expire before or during your travels.

We recommend packing light, breathable clothing for warm July days, a light layer or sweater for cooler evenings by the lake, and comfortable shoes for exploring the area and walking around the venue grounds. Don’t forget your sunglasses, sunscreen, and of course… your bathing suit to enjoy the beautiful waters of Lake Maggiore! For the wedding weekend, be sure to pack your formal attire for our Black Tie celebration, along with outfits for the welcome dinner and farewell boat ride (the dress code details for those events will be provided when you RSVP). Most importantly, bring your passport, a camera, and your excitement — we can’t wait to celebrate with you in Italy!

Yes, guests traveling from the United States will need an outlet adapter for Italy. Italy uses Type C and Type F plugs with a 230V electrical system, so we recommend bringing a universal travel adapter for charging phones, cameras, and other devices. We also suggest checking your device’s voltage requirements before traveling to make sure everything is compatible.

We recommend flying into Milan, Italy. Milan is the easiest gateway to Lake Maggiore and has convenient connections for continuing your journey to the wedding weekend.

We recommend booking your accommodations at your earliest convenience — the sooner the better! Since we’ll be celebrating in a popular destination, securing your stay early will give you the best selection of options. For more details and recommendations, please visit the Villa section of our website.

We recommend staying at least 3–4 nights to fully enjoy Lake Maggiore and make the most of your trip. Since our wedding weekend includes multiple events, arriving a little early will give you time to settle in, explore the area, and relax before the celebrations begin. If you have the time, we highly encourage staying longer — Lake Maggiore has so much to offer, and a villa is a wonderful way to enjoy the experience with family and friends. Many villas are perfect for groups, so consider getting a few people together and making it part of the adventure!

Staying connected while in Italy is usually easy! Before traveling, we recommend checking with your phone provider about international coverage, roaming, and data plans. Many hotels, restaurants, and venues around Lake Maggiore offer Wi-Fi, but having a travel plan or eSIM can be helpful for navigating, transportation, and staying connected throughout the weekend. We also recommend downloading WhatsApp before your trip, as it is widely used in Italy for messaging and is a convenient way to communicate while traveling. We’ll use it as a helpful way to share updates and stay connected during the wedding weekend.

Expect warm summer days, beautiful sunsets and plenty of sunshine in Luino, Italy! July temperatures are typically in the mid-70s to mid-80s°F, making it the perfect time to enjoy everything Lake Maggiore has to offer. Pack your favorite summer outfits, comfortable shoes, sunglasses and a light layer for the evening breeze. Most importantly… don’t forget your bathing suits! There’s no better place to cool off than the lake.

Yes, all three wedding weekend events will be hosted at the same venue, making it easy and convenient for our guests. The venue is accessible, with parking available and handicap-friendly access throughout. Please note that one section includes small stones, which may be a little more challenging to navigate. We are happy to help with any accessibility needs.

Please RSVP by the date listed on your invitation. We recommend responding early, especially since this is a destination wedding and we want to make sure everyone has the details they need for planning their trip.

Our wedding day dress code is Black Tie. We encourage guests to dress in formal evening attire as we celebrate this special moment together in the beautiful setting of Lake Maggiore. The dress code details for our welcome dinner and farewell boat ride will be provided when you complete your RSVP.

Yes! Since we’re planning a full wedding weekend, please let us know which events you’ll be attending when you RSVP. This will help us make sure we have everything prepared for our guests.

Please let us know when you RSVP so we can make accommodations.

Details for each event will be shared throughout the RSVP process.

We’d love to celebrate with everyone who is invited! If your invitation includes a guest, then yes, you are welcome to bring them. If your invitation does not include a guest, we kindly ask that you attend solo.

Italy uses the Euro (€). Credit cards are widely accepted, but we recommend carrying some cash for smaller purchases, markets, and local cafés.
