THE JOURNEY

Join us as the sun dips below the Adriatic horizon for artisanal cocktails and traditional Puglia appetizers at Vista Ostuni. A warm welcome to all and the segue into our double celebration.

(02) THE FIFTIETH GALA
The pinnacle of the week. A 70's theme evening featuring a mouthwatering degustation, live DJ, and dancing beneath the starlit Apulian sky until the early hours.
Location: Masseria Torre Maizza
(03) DIPINTO DI BLU
The warm September sun paints the Puglian coastline dipinto di blu as you set sail with a drink in hand, the sea breeze in your hair, and a live DJ spinning laid-back tracks over the gentle waves while gliding past whitewashed villages and hidden coves. Swimwear advised as we wont be able to resist taking a dip in the turquoise waters.
Location: Somewhere along the coast, TBD
(04) DECADE OF LOVE VOWS
A unforgettable evening at the one and only Terrazza Campanella in Polignano a Mare. We renew our promises surrounded by dear friends at candle-lit tables near natural sea caves, with limestone cliffs glowing at dusk and gentle waves echoing below.
Location: Terrazza Campanella, Polignano a Mare
(05) EAT, COOK, LOVE
Slip into a sun-drenched Puglian kitchen where flour dusts your fingers, tomatoes still smell of the vine, and a bubbling sauce whispers secrets passed down through generations. As you sip local wine and knead dough by hand, time slows, laughter spills, and you begin to taste what it means to savor life, not just food. This isn’t just a cooking class—it’s your own little slice of mangia, ama, vivi in the heart of Italy.
(06) SANDY TOES, FAREWELL TOASTS
Close out the week of fiestas with a sun-soaked day at Lido Bambu beach club, where crystal clear waters, seaside lounging and effortless Apulian glamor set the scene. A final opportunity to share stories and say our heartfelt goodbyes before the journey home.

DUE PENSIERI
(01) Contribution
OUR CELEBRATION FUND
Please, no gifts. Our apartment is already one scented candle away from collapse and luggage space is precious. In lieu of traditional gifts, we invite you to philantropize our joint "Eat, Play, YOLOve" fund, which will be used to upgrade drinks, activities and general chaos for everyone. Think of it as crowdfunding your own fun and investing in future inebriated you. Its just like charity, when the charity is all of us.
A double celebration of fifty years on Earth and ten years of "chaos partnership meets compromise". For those who have asked, we have provided ways to mark these milestone through gestures of kindness or words of love.
