Our Story
It all started with crocs
It began in June 2021, on an unexpected camping trip. Andrea, a city girl dressed entirely in white, and Chad, perfectly at home in the wilderness, wearing his signature Crocs and socks. An unlikely pairing, perhaps, but one that quickly became something extraordinary.
Just one month later, they were in Italy, wandering cobblestone streets, sharing candlelit dinners, and falling in love somewhere between Venice and Orvieto. What began as a spontaneous adventure became the first chapter of a story neither could have imagined.
In June 2023, Chad proposed in Austria. Not long after, they returned to Italy, exploring everything from the rolling hills of Tuscany to the shores of Lake Como. Along the way, they discovered Villa Miani, perched high above Rome with breathtaking views of the Eternal City. They knew immediately that one day, they would return.
And on October 22, 2026, they did.
Surrounded by the people they love most, Andrea and Chad celebrated the beginning of their next chapter in the very country where so much of their story had unfolded.
From Crocs and camping to black tie in Rome. Some things are simply meant to be.
