Our Wedding

Our Story

Greg and McKenzie always knew of each other through McKenzie’s cousin and Greg's longtime friend, Tyler, but they didn't officially meet until the start of their sophomore year at the University of Delaware. On the very first night at school—August 28, 2016—Greg invited McKenzie and her roommates (now bridesmaids!) to a party at his house. From that night on, they were inseparable!

Transportation

Renting a Car

We highly recommend renting a car for greater flexibility. Taxis are not always readily available, and there’s no Uber or Lyft in the area. Plus, Tuscany’s countryside is best explored by car!

Traveling by Train

While Pienza doesn’t have its own train station, you can take a train to Chiusi-Chianciano Terme, which is about a 25–30 minute drive from Pienza. Trains to Chiusi run from major cities like Florence and Rome. From Chiusi, you can take a taxi, shuttle, or rental car to reach Pienza. Another option is to take the train to Siena, about an hour from Pienza, and continue by car or taxi.

Transportation to Wedding Events

Pienza is a wonderful city to stay in, with plenty to see and do, and you can easily explore it on foot without needing a car. For guests staying at our recommended hotels in Pienza, transportation to and from the wedding venue will be provided for your convenience. If you decide to stay elsewhere, please make sure to plan your own transportation so you can join us hassle-free!

Discover Pienza and the Val d’Orcia

Nestled in the heart of southern Tuscany, Val d’Orcia is one of Italy’s most breathtaking regions and a designated UNESCO World Heritage site. With rolling hills, cypress-lined roads, and medieval hill towns, it’s the Tuscany you imagine- and the reason we chose this magical place to celebrate. At the very heart of Val d’Orcia lies Pienza, a charming Renaissance town surrounded by vineyards, golden fields, and sweeping countryside views. We encourage you to take time to explore both Pienza’s historic streets and the stunning landscapes that make this region truly unforgettable. Take in the Views From golden wheat fields to vineyards and olive groves, Val d’Orcia is postcard-perfect. Walk, drive, or bike through the countryside to experience some of Tuscany’s most iconic scenery. Stroll Pienza’s Historic Center Wander the charming Renaissance streets, admire views from the city walls, and visit landmarks like Piazza Pio II and the Duomo di Pienza. Savor Local Flavors Pienza is famous for its pecorino cheese. Pair it with local wines or enjoy a leisurely meal at one of the town’s trattorias, where traditional Tuscan dishes shine. You can also take a cooking class in town to learn how to make classic Tuscan dishes yourself! Indulge in Wine &amp; CocktailsVal d’Orcia is home to some of Tuscany’s most celebrated wines, including Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Visit a vineyard, enjoy a tasting, or simply relax with a glass at one of Pienza’s charming wine bars.

If you need to contact anyone with a European phone number- like a restaurant, taxi, or service- we recommend downloading WhatsApp. Most Italians use it, and you can easily reach them by call or text through the app. 3. Check and RECHECK your passport expiration date! You can NOT travel to Italy if your passport is 6 months or less from expiring (from the date you plan to travel home). 4. If you need a car service, be sure to book in advance, as Uber and Lyft are not available in Italy. 5. Ladies, if you’d like to wear stiletto heels, please keep in mind that some surfaces are uneven. We recommend using heel protectors to prevent sinking into the grass or stumbling on cobblestones.These can be purchased <a href="Ladies, if you’d like to wear stiletto heels, please keep in mind that some surfaces are uneven.
