Daphne & James — May 15, 2027

We still can't quite believe we're getting married in Italy — and we really can't believe you're coming with us. This weekend means everything to us, and having you there, all the way in Tuscany, makes it more than we could have imagined.

We've put together this site to help you plan your trip and make the most of the time we'll have together. Explore the schedule, find a place to stay, and if you have a few extra days, we've left some of our favourite spots in the area — all tried, tested, and deeply recommended.

We can't wait to see you there.

With love,
Daphne & James

Getting There

All wedding events will take place at Conti di San Bonifacio. The venue is a wine resort located in the Tuscan countryside in the province of Grosseto, tucked between the vineyards of Bolgheri, the rugged Maremma coastline, and the rolling hills that define Tuscany. We are so delighted to have you join us at Conti di San Bonifacio to celebrate! Please see below for more information on how to get there.

1

Fly into Italy

Rome (FCO) and Florence (FLR) are both excellent options with strong international connections. Plan on a roughly 2 hour drive by car from either. If you're exploring Europe beforehand, Pisa (PSA) is worth considering. It's a smaller airport but only about 1.5 hours from the venue.

2

Drive to Conti di San Bonifacio

We strongly recommend renting a car. It's the easiest way to reach the venue and gives you the freedom to explore Tuscany at your own pace. Parking is available on-site and at all accommodations. For those who'd prefer not to drive on days with wedding events, we'll be organizing shuttles between the venue and accommodations for all events.

Accommodations

We have reserved accommodation for our guests since our venue is in a rural area — this way, we can arrange shuttles and everyone can enjoy the weekend's events without worrying about driving.

Please check your email for the details of what we've reserved for you, including pricing and booking information. You'll be able to confirm or decline your accommodation directly from your RSVP. If you have any questions, reach out to Daphne or James directly.

If you choose not to use the accommodation we've arranged, please note that we will not be providing a shuttle to or from the venue. The venue is in a rural area with no nearby ride services, so you'll need to either arrange a designated driver or book a car service in advance. We want you to have the best night — please plan ahead so you can enjoy it fully!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the dress code? ⌄

The wedding on May 15 is black tie — floor-length gowns for ladies, tuxedos for men. The Welcome dinner on May 13 is elevated summer casual, and the day event on May 14 is Tuscan chic in whites. Head to the Events tab for more details on each day — we'll also be adding links to attire inspiration pages there for reference. Please bear in mind that the venue has cobblestones and outdoor terraces, including a vineyard ceremony — block heels or flats are strongly recommended for comfort.

How do I get to the venue? ⌄

Head to the Travel tab for everything you need. In short, you'll need to fly into Italy — Rome, Florence, or Pisa are your best options — and then drive to the estate, which takes around 1.5 to 2 hours depending on which airport you use. Rental cars are available at all three airports and parking is available on-site.

Can I bring a date or my children? ⌄

We'd love to celebrate with everyone, but due to the intimate nature of the weekend, we're only able to welcome guests who are named on your invitation. We hope you'll enjoy a wonderful night away — and we promise to make it worth it!

Will there be transportation between the hotel and venue? ⌄

Shuttles will be provided for guests staying in our accommodation blocks before and after all weekend events. If you're making your own accommodation arrangements, you'll need to organise your own transport to and from the venue — the estate is in a rural area with no nearby ride services, so please plan ahead. We'll share full shuttle schedules and pick-up details closer to the date.

What happens if I have dietary restrictions? ⌄

Please note any dietary requirements in the RSVP form — our caterers are well-equipped to accommodate most needs, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and allergen-specific requests. We'll do our best to ensure everyone is looked after.

Is there a gift registry? ⌄

Your presence at our wedding — all the way to Italy — is the greatest gift we could ask for. If you'd like to give something, we'd be so grateful for a contribution to our new home fund. The easiest way is via Venmo: @Daphne-Cheung. Please just include your name in the note so we can thank you properly!

What is the RSVP deadline? ⌄

We kindly ask that you RSVP by December 15, 2026. Given the international nature of the celebration, we encourage early responses so we can finalise arrangements. If you have any difficulty responding, please reach out to us directly.

Things to Explore

We've spent many trips falling in love with this corner of Italy. Here are some of our favourite places — worth every detour.

Town

Bolgheri

A perfectly preserved medieval village at the end of a famous cypress-lined avenue. Don't miss Enoteca Tognoni — an institution. Pull up a stool, order wines by the glass, and ask for the pici pasta. Stay as long as they'll let you.

Wineries

Ornellaia & Argentiera

Two of the finest estates in the Bolgheri DOC. Ornellaia is legendary — book a tasting well in advance. Argentiera is more intimate, with stunning coastal views and wines that are every bit their equal. Between the two, you'll understand why this stretch of coast is called the Tuscan Bordeaux.

Old Town

Lucca

One of Italy's most beloved walled cities, and somehow still unhurried. Spend a morning shopping the narrow streets, stop for gelato, linger over lunch at one of the piazza restaurants, then rent a bike and do a lap on top of the ancient walls. Pure joy.

Coast

Cinque Terre

Five cliff-side villages stitched together by coastal paths and a single railway line. Base yourself in Vernazza — the most beautiful of the five. Our strongest recommendation: rent a small boat and see the villages from the water. There's no better way.
