Experience

OUR FLORENCE FAVORITES

Florence has a way of making even the smallest moments feel memorable — a spritz in a piazza, a perfect sandwich, a little shop you almost walked past, one more gelato (or tiramisu if you are John), because obviously. We are pulling together some of our favorite places, especially around Oltrarno, the corner of the city we love most. Think of this less as a checklist and more as a starting point for experiencing Florence in your own way while you are here with us.

For the hours between wedding events,
wandering is highly encouraged.

We gathered a mix of favorite restaurants, wine bars, views, shops, sweets, and small discoveries to help you find your own rhythm in Florence. Start wherever you are, follow what sounds good, and leave room for the city to surprise you. Explore them all below!
