We invite you to join us for a celebration of love and unity in the timeless city of Rome, Italy. While this weekend will be filled with so much joy, it also carries a deep sadness, as we’ll be celebrating without my dad. His absence will be profoundly felt, but we believe he would want us to embrace this moment—to celebrate our love, family, and the beauty of life. So, with love and resilience in our hearts, we move forward in a way that honors the love we have for each other and reflects the deep kindness, unwavering strength, and boundless love my dad brought into our lives.
Our wedding weekend will be an intimate gathering of the people who have shaped our journey, and it would mean the world to have you there. That said, we know this is short notice, and we completely understand if you’re unable to make it. We are incredibly grateful for the journey you will undertake to be with us.
This isn’t exactly the path we imagined, but we've brought our original wedding plans back to life—and put so much love into every detail. Our hope is that it feels less like an event and more like something meaningful we get to create together—especially in a place as rare and magical as a private palazzo in the center of the eternal city.
We're aiming for a weekend that feels like art: intentional, a little dreamy, and full of heart. We've invited our favorite creative souls to help us bring that to life. Your presence means so much, and we truly can’t wait to celebrate with you.
With Love Guiding Us
All Our Love,
Michael + Steph
From our previous experience, we learned that seating at the venue is extremely limited. To accommodate everyone as best as we can, we're asking for RSVPs earlier so that, if you’re unable to attend, we have time to extend the invitation to others on our list.

The Wedding Day
Our love for art and immersive experiences led us to a dream venue—a private 16th-century palazzo in the heart of Rome, only recently opened to the public. It’s a place full of beauty, art, history, and magic, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
We’ll gather for an evening ceremony, followed by a sunset aperitivo hour and a private five-course dinner in the Hall of Mirrors. From there, we’ll let the celebration unfold—inside the palazzo and maybe even out into the Roman streets.

Accommodations
We’ll be staying in the Trastevere neighborhood—it came highly recommended for its charm, cobblestone streets, and lively piazzas. A few friends have also booked Airbnbs nearby, so it should be a fun little hub if you’d like to stay close! We’re holding a block of rooms at UNA Hotels Trastevere Roma, and working to secure a discounted rate. If you'd like to be considered for the room block, just text Steph —she’s giving the hotel an estimated number of rooms the second week of May.
Feel free to stay wherever works best for you, especially if you're using points or have your own favorite hotel—but we’d love to be neighbors if it works out!
