How do I get to the venue?
Important: there are multiple properties with similar names on Google Maps, make sure to select 'Borgo Casa al Vento' in Gaiole in Chianti.
To get to the venue, we'd reccommend to rent a car, since it's in the middle of nature and not well serviced by public transport. Roads might be bumpy and steep, therefore we'd reccommend a 4x4 car!
By plane: the closest airports are Florence and Rome. You could also fly to Milano (all airports) and rent a car from there.
By car: From Milan (4 hours), Florence (1 hour) or Rome (3 hours)
By train: The closest railway stations are: Montevarchi and Florence. For timetables and information, consult Trenitalia website.

What are the plans for the weekend?
See below for more information:
Are speeches or toasts welcome?
Yes! We have received some requests and we finalized the program! Thank you!
Presents?
It sounds clichè but it's true... your attendance is the biggest present you can give us! However, if you'd like to give us a present, a contribution towards our honeymoon would be appreciated, since you know how much we love to travel! More info in the gifts section of the website.
Is accommodation arranged at the venue?
Yes! Accommodation for the night of the wedding (Saturday, 21 September) has been arranged for all of the guests and costs are covered by us!
Thanks for the ones who have confirmed their stay at the Borgo on Friday. The venue will be in contact with you if need be!
What should I wear?
September in Italy can be still very warm, but could get more chilly at night. Grass and gravel are the main terrains.
There's a pool and a tennis court at the venue, so bring swim suit and/or sport clothes if you'd like to make use of them.
We'd recommend a formal attire for the wedding day, but no tie for men and long dress for women required, unless you'd like to!
Are children invited?
While we love the little ones, we've decided to keep this event adult-only, with the exception of our niece and infants below 6 months.
Are plus ones invited?
Because it's an intimate wedding with limited space, unless your partners have been specifically invited, unfortunately we are not able to extend the invite to them.
