Ceremony
Chiesa di Santo Stefano Rotondo

Unfortunately the Church has mandated the chair covers which are not the most attractive. However, NO one noticed that, they simply were blown away by the Church's simple majesty.
Reception
Villa Miani
Via Trionfale, 151Roma, Lazio 00136, IT
The *best* location in Rome. Know that the team does a lot of (big!) events, so you need to be clear about what you want & exigent to be sure that every detail is taken care of.

At 7:30 SHARP, we have a table for bruschette and pizza (reputably the city's best!) at this favorite Trastevere pizzeria. Meet us in Celio, at Il Pentaggrappolo for a drink before and we can travel together, or make your own way to dinner, but PLEASE be prompt! Dress code: casual or casual chic if you like :) 15 euro per person includes an abundant mix of bruschetta and pizza as well as drinks and of course the necessary after-dinner espresso! (that'll keep you going for drinks afterward :))
