Questions & Answers

What's the weather like in late August?

Late August on the Italian Riviera is warm and beautiful! Expect temperatures between 25-30°C during the day and 19-22°C during the evening. Make sure to pack sunscreen, sunglasses, and summery clothing.

Are children invited?

We love your little ones, but we've decided to keep the wedding adults-only to allow everyone to relax and enjoy the evening. We hope this gives you a chance for a date night! Please get in touch if you require assistance with childcare options.

Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?

Absolutely! Please note any allergies or dietary needs in your RSVP form. Our caterers are experienced with all dietary requirements and will ensure you have delicious options throughout the evening.

What should I wear?

Sunday Wedding: Formal / Black Tie Optional. Think elegant evening wear. For the venue, we strongly recommend ladies wear flat shoes, block heels, or wedges—the castle has cobblestones, stone paths, and grass. Stilettos will sink!

Friday Welcome Dinner: Smart Casual / Riviera Chic. Think linen, florals, light suits—elegant but comfortable.

Monday Brunch: Come as you are! Casual and relaxed.

Do you have a gift registry?

Your presence is truly the greatest gift! We're fortunate to have everything we need, so we've set up a charitable fund instead. If you'd like to give, contributions will support causes close to our hearts.

Learn more on our Registry page.

Is there parking at the venue?

Parking in Zoagli and at the castle is very limited. We strongly recommend using the shuttle service we're providing from the town center, or arriving by train and taxi.

If you must drive, arrive early as spaces fill quickly. Street parking is available in the town center, but be prepared for a steep walk!

Can we take photos during the ceremony?

We'd love for you to be fully present during the ceremony. Our professional photographers will capture every moment beautifully, and we'll share those photos with you after the wedding.

Feel free to take photos during the reception and throughout the weekend— we just ask that you enjoy the ceremony unplugged. Thank you!
