Check out the Travel and Accommodation tab for options. We will be staying in the village of Apricale during the week leading up to the wedding. We've made some recommendations, and suggest you stay near the wedding venue the night before and night of the wedding ... but you have a lot of choices depending on your needs and budget.
The wedding venue is a historic riverside building in Isolabona that has been beautifully restored and modernized. "Rustically Elegant" is how we describe it. No need for a tux and black tie—the vibe is much more casual. We recommend comfortable cocktail party attire. Assuming the weather is good, the wedding will be both indoors and outdoors. In early October, it may get a bit chilly at night, so bring a shawl or sweater just in case.
