The Weekend, in Three Acts

A wedding is not a dinner.
It is a weekend.

From the first toast to the final espresso — three rooms, three menus, one family looking after you.

Up to 100 for weddings

A short stroll past Carlyle, Mark and Lowell — the kind of weekend out-of-town guests still talk about a year later.

One House. Every Detail.

A concierge for the whole weekend.

Bespoke Menus

Each meal designed personally with Chef Giuseppe Bruno — no two weekends alike.

Curated Wine Pairings

From the Bruno family cellar: Brunello, Barolo, Champagne, and rare Italian whites.

Florals & Tabletop

Trusted partners for white-on-white florals, custom menus, candlelight.

Dedicated Event Director

One point of contact across both restaurants, from first call to last espresso.

À la Carte

One night, or all three.

Many couples book the full weekend. Others choose only the rehearsal, only the reception, or only the farewell brunch. Every combination is welcome — and the planning is just as careful.

“For one weekend, Caravaggio and Sistina were entirely ours — and Giuseppe felt like family by Sunday morning.”
