The night before the wedding we decided to stay at a new agriturismo. Well, actually we didn't have much choice since our usual B&B was full.
It turned out to be a cute, well-restored little place with a great restaurant.

The Bride |

| Some people threw pasta as well, which somehow ended up inside the lace of Silvia's dress. |
Unfortunately, while shaking her dress to get the pasta out, one of the straps broke off! Here's mom trying to fix it...safety pin anyone? |
It looks like they're freezing, but it was a really hot day! |

In a dramatic presentation, we open a bottle of champagne with a sword and have a lovely aperitivo. (Check out the awesome selection of gourmet cuisine) |

Drink up! |
The staff all had on adorable mountaineer outfits. |
