OUR STORY
Taylor and Sara’s journey began at a music festival in Atlanta on September 21st 2018, where their shared love for fun and adventures brought them together. After three unforgettable days, they knew something special was there. Though they lived miles apart—Taylor in North Carolina and Sara in Florida—their connection remained strong, and they continued talking long-distance.
Determined to see where this could go, Taylor visited Sara in Florida, and their bond only grew. A few months later, Sara visited Taylor for Thanksgiving, where he officially asked her to be his girlfriend. For nine months, they traveled back and forth, until Taylor took a leap of faith and moved to Florida to be with Sara.
Together, they found their first apartment—excited, nervous, and ready for this new chapter. As time passed, they took the next big step, buying their first home, traveling around the world and adopting their beloved cats, Raya & Indi. With every milestone, it became even clearer—they were meant to be.
On July 16th 2023, Taylor asked Sara the most important question of all. Without hesitation, she said yes, knowing she had found her forever. Now, they can’t wait to celebrate their love with you in Italy!

AIRPORT
Naples International Airport, offers plenty of flight options from the U.S., making it easy to join us for the big day. If you are planning a short tourist visit to Italy, you likely do not need a visa. Please check your passports and make sure they are not expiring! If are already in Europe, you can also arrive by train where you can rent a car as well.
Just a friendly reminder: book your flights to Naples, Italy, not Naples, Florida. While we love a good alligator tour, we’re aiming for pasta and wine, not swamp and sunshine.
TRANSPORTATION
Given the venue’s location and the area's limited transportation options, we recommend renting a car or hiring a car service, as taxis are limited. The drive is straightforward—just 30 minutes on the highway from the airport, followed by a 30-minute scenic route through the beautiful countryside.
At the Naples airport, several car rental companies are conveniently located near the terminal, making it easy to pick up and return your vehicle. You can also find various car services online that will pick you up and drop you off.
