Villa Aurora, Lake Como
Today is the day.
You are invited
A whole weekend by the lake, one golden September evening, and everyone we love in the same place.
Join us at Villa Aurora for vows in the garden, dinner under the lights, and a dance floor made for late-night celebrating.
Our story
It started with a missed train, a borrowed phone charger, and a coffee that was supposed to last ten minutes. Somehow, every ordinary day since has felt a little more like an adventure.
This page has the details, the timing, and the ways to reply. Mostly, it is our way of saying: we cannot wait to have you there.
Spring 2021
A delayed platform turned into coffee, then dinner, then the easiest conversation either of us had ever had.
Summer 2024
A tiny boat, a storm that cleared just in time for sunset, and the first time we said this felt like home.
December 2025
Noah planned a quiet dinner. Ava noticed every clue and still cried before the ring box opened.
18 September 2027
The vows, the long tables, the first song, and the rare magic of having our favorite people in one room.
The day
Saturday, 18 September 2027 · Villa Aurora, Lake Como
Vows in the upper garden overlooking the lake.
Spritz, small bites, and lake views while the garden turns golden.
Dinner under the lights with toasts between courses.
First dance, then the floor opens for everyone.
Good to know
Garden ceremony
Please arrive from 15:30. We will begin at 16:00 in the upper garden overlooking the lake, followed by aperitivo on the terrace.
Dress code
Think evening suits, long dresses, rich color, and shoes that can handle stone paths. Bring something light for the terrace after sunset.
Stay
We have reserved a small room block at Hotel Bellavista, ten minutes from the villa. Mention Ava & Noah when booking, or choose any lakeside stay in Varenna or Bellagio.
Travel
Milan airports are easiest. Shuttles will leave Como San Giovanni at 14:30 and return after midnight. Parking at the villa is limited, so rideshares are welcome.
Gifts
Your presence is the gift. If you would like to mark the occasion, we have added a few ideas for our home and a honeymoon fund for mornings with no alarm clock.
Cash fund
Demo only: reserve this fund to see the guest flow. No real payment is collected on this page.
Suggested: 200 USD
Give what feels right — every contribution counts.
Questions
A few practical answers so everyone can arrive relaxed.
Black tie optional. We would love the evening to feel elegant, celebratory, and comfortable enough to dance in.
Yes, if your invitation allows it. The RSVP form will show how many guests you can include.
We adore your little ones, but the ceremony and dinner are planned as an adults-first evening. Babies in arms are of course welcome.
Hotel Bellavista has a small room block. Como, Varenna, and Bellagio all work well if you would rather choose your own stay.
Please arrive from 15:30. The ceremony begins at 16:00, and shuttles will be timed around that.
