*July 1st, 2024*. Please RSVP using the link on this site.

Formal attire for the wedding day. Western dress, Indian dress and kilts most welcome! For those rocking heels, we recommend flats, wedge heels or block heels for the outdoor ceremony on the lawn. No chappals/champals, please.

Unfortunately due to space limitations, not all of our lovely guests can bring a guest of their own. We regretfully ask our guests to please not bring a plus one, unless they are specifically named on your invitation. Thank you for your understanding!

A traditional Italian wedding feast! After the ceremony enjoy apertivo hour (an array of hors d'oeuvres, local wines and spritz), followed by a sit down dinner with vegetarian and non-veg options. Save room for millefoglie Italian wedding cake and the gelato bar. There will be special kids meals for our young guests.

Please let us know any dietary requirements in the RSVP link, and drop us a note at cynthiaandrackesh@gmail.com so we can pass that information to our caterers.

The ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner will be held outdoors on grass and gravel. We'll head inside for the dancefloor.

Yes! Everyone who is invited to the wedding is invited to the welcome event. We'd love to see you there.

We do not have a hotel block but have listed recommended hotels and B&Bs in Grezzana, close to the wedding venue. Check out the "Travel" tab for more info. Verona and the surrounding areas have lots of wonderful accommodation options to suit all tastes and budgets, from palatial hotels to wine retreats, cozy B&B to large villas. If you want to venture out further, be sure to check out Tripadvisor and Airbnb. September is technically off-season but accommodation does get booked up, so we recommend booking early!

Yes. Once we get final RSVPs and confirmation of where guests are staying, we will provide shuttle information. The shuttle will pick up and drop off from 1 - 2 nearby hotels in Grezzana, so you can enjoy yourself and get home safely. Logistics info will be provided in due course.

About a 30 minute drive.

Verona doesn't have Uber, but we recommend downloading an app called AppTaxi if you want to get around the city. (https://apptaxi.it/en/verona/)

Great, please let us know when you RSVP.

We are truly grateful for your presence at our wedding in Italy and consider it the most precious gift. Understanding the effort and expense of your journey, we have not arranged a gift registry. Your presence is all we wish for as we celebrate this special day together.

Absolutely.

Feel free to wear any colour you so desire. (Except, you know, white.)

There is another venue in the region called "Villa Pellegrini Cipolla". If you've showed up to a big red building, you're at the wrong place. Please use this address—this is the correct venue: https://maps.app.goo.gl/XWqU61nn3y9B19Re6
