Traditional, personalized, glamorous, old-fashioned – design your wedding to reflect yourself and your feelings when you’re together. Just like Jen, your Zen will influence your choice of venue but unlike the star, yours is geared to accommodate the two of you.
Just ask Heather and Greg, who eloped to Florence and soaked up every minute of bliss in the old renaissance town. Even on their military budget (active duty get 50% off with us) their legal wedding was regal and romantic.

Runners were everywhere: stretching, bending, hopping (to keep warm), meditating, chattering nervously as they waited for shuttle buses to take them to the starting point, one of the most scenic terraces in Florence, Piazzale Michelangelo. Impeccable organization and good ‘ole Italian fun made this sunny Sunday a real treat for locals and visitors alike.
Shops were open and the streets were packed with cheering supporters from around the world.
Blessed by the young and well-loved Mayor Matteo Renzi who showed up to kick off the Family Run, a 3k made just for the kids, Firenze Maratona is just one more reason to come and enjoy Italian life in Florence!

They run the Florence Marathon!
Over 10,000 runners ran around the old renaissance town on Sunday in and out of alleys, along the river Arno and through piazzas for 42 kilometers. Our own wedding coordinator Luca ran the race in a record 4 hours 9 minutes – good job!!

26 year old Italian Chef Simone Rugiati
They’re growing like weeds and popping up like PS3 Slims. Under 30 and going strong, the Italian response to Jamie Oliver are the likes of Simone Rugiati, Pier Giorgio Papini, and a handful of others. Italian boos making the best of what Italy has to offer with the best of what Italian moms have given the world.
In print, Simone Rugiati’s “Shock and Awe in 20 minutes” is a sure way to move your bride towards the pots and pans. Easy and tasteful recipes accompanied by inspiring shots of the scrumptous chef himself.
And if pictures are not enough, a fun DVD gives you some kitchen klues like how to peel tomatoes or make instant crepes, plus a film biography of Simone himself (sigh!).
