Our Love
Story
We met in Singapore on a sunny day of March 2018. But our connection started before that when we were still miles apart during long and deep conversations. Fantastic adventures followed, in Bali, Italy, Singapore, Australia, Japan, and more.
A passionate journey that brought us here today with all of you.
Why here, in Elba?
Giorgio: “To me, this is a home away from home, having spent all of my childhood summers here, learning to commune with the sea like my mother, sailing like my uncle and cousins, and enjoying the little things in life like my father before me.”
Elena: “My first time in Italy, and one of our first adventures together, was here. But most importantly, Giorgio's parents celebrated their wedding here, in this very hotel. To me it is a precious gift to be able to honor them and continue this family tradition.”
​
This place, its shores, the deep blue waters, the roughness of the sea, and the beautiful sunsets represent a safe place, a family place, and a tradition that continues from generation to generation.
​​
We are glad to share all this with you, our family, and our closest friends.
By Car
Drive 2.5 hours from Firenze (1.5 hours from Pisa) to the Piombino harbour, then take a 1 hour ferry.
By Flight
We recommend flying into Florence (FLR) or Pisa (PSA) and then continue the journey by car/train + ferry.
The island has a small airport (EBA).
Once You're There
There are lots of things to do on the island, and many interesting and beautiful places to see.
However, public transportation is limited, so we recommend renting a scooter or a car. Alternatively you can rely on taxis.
Where to Stay
The venue provides with discount codes on their best rates for both the Hotel Villa Ottone, and the neighboring Pensione Villa Gaia. Additionally, there are many other options in the area.

Gifts??
Your presence at our celebration is your gift to us, and that is more than enough.
Still, we know that some of you would like to still leave something for us.
We ask that you do not buy things; instead, we will select a charity organization and set up a channel to donate to it as a wedding gitft.
​
Stay tuned!
Wedding Colors?
We do not have a requirement on a specific colour palette. We want you to wear what you feel comfortable in. Simply keep in mind that this celebration will be beachfront and outdoor, so summer-style is what we'll go for.
And no, flip-flops and shorts are NOT OK. ;)
