The Dress Code

The bride will be wearing white, kindly reserved for her. As this is a summer wedding in Florence, we'd love to see you in soft, colourful dresses and elegant summer attire.

For Him

A tailored suit or smart shirt with dress shoes fits perfectly. Think polished, warm-weather elegance — and leave the tie at home if you'd like.

For Her

A flowy midi or maxi dress in warm, earthy tones would be beautiful. Think Tuscan summer — romantic, relaxed, and effortlessly chic.

Can I bring a plus one?

If your invitation says plus one, absolutely! If you're unsure, just reach out to Sophie directly and she'll be happy to clarify.

Are kids welcome?

We adore your little ones, but this will be an adults-only evening. Take the night off and celebrate with us!

What should I wear?

Summer formal — think elegant and festive. We'll be outdoors at times so flat or block-heel shoes are a smart choice on Villa Cora's grounds.

Absolutely. Just note your dietary preferences in the RSVP form and we'll make sure you're well taken care of.

Can I give a speech?

We'd love that! Please let our toastmaster know in advance — details will come closer to the date by email.
