We want to help provide as much information to make the travel experience as seamless and fun for our guests!
We recognize there are still a lot of unknowns at the moment with global travel due to the COVID pandemic. We’ll keep information on the site updated as the situation becomes more clear.
Below is an overview of the Chianti region in Tuscany-- how to get there and hotel accommodations.
For our wedding, we invite our guests to join us in the Tuscan countryside in the town of Gaiole in Chianti, located ~1 hour outside of Florence.
The wedding itself will be held at:
Capannelle Winery
Località Capannelle, 13
53013 Gaiole in Chianti (Siena)
Italy
We recommend our guests fly into Florence Airport, Peretola (FLR). There are a number of airlines that fly in from the United States, although expect a layover somewhere in Europe, as direct flights are limited.
As we get closer, based on incoming arrival times, we will seek to coordinate shuttles from Florence Airport to the hotels listed below in Radda in Chianti.
Rental Cars
Renting a car from Florence Airport gives you flexibility on your travel from Florence to Tuscany and allows you to experience the countryside firsthand. We've found RentalCars.com has pretty good rates and coverage options when booking rental cars internationally.
We have made arrangements with the following hotels in the town of Radda in Chianti, for our guests to stay for the wedding. All three hotels are located near each other and are a roughly 15 minute drive from Gaiole in Chianti.
