The Fairytale Italian Nuptials: Date, Location, and Lavish Details
The wedding of Andrea Denver and Lexi Sundin was not a single-day event but a magnificent, three-day celebration that honored Andrea’s Italian roots and the couple’s shared love of luxury. The entire affair was meticulously planned to be a "fairytale" experience for their guests, many of whom traveled internationally for the event.
1. The Official Wedding Date and Venue
The couple officially exchanged vows on Thursday, June 13, 2024. The ceremony was a traditional, intimate affair held at the Duomo di Lonato (also known as the Basilica di San Giovanni Battista) in Lonato del Garda, a beautiful church near Andrea’s hometown of Verona, Italy. The historic setting provided a stunning, classic backdrop for the sacred moment, attended by approximately 120 guests.
2. A Three-Day Destination Wedding Extravaganza
In true Italian style, the celebration was a multi-day affair, kicking off on Tuesday with an intimate welcome dinner for all the guests. The wedding weekend was designed to immerse friends and family in the Italian culture and landscape, with pre-wedding festivities taking place at a picturesque Italian vineyard.
3. The Lavish Castle Reception
The most breathtaking detail of the wedding was the reception venue. Following the church ceremony, the celebration moved to an ancient Italian castle. Andrea and Lexi specifically chose a venue that had history and grandeur, telling a major publication that "celebrating in an ancient castle had to be part of the whole thing." This castle setting provided the perfect backdrop for their lavish dinner, dancing, and decadent dessert buffet.
4. Decadent Details: Rings and Cake
No expense was spared in the details of the luxury wedding. The couple's commitment to quality was evident in their choices, including their $4,000 wedding bands. The wedding cake itself was a classic, elegant design, also reportedly valued at $4,000, which anchored a spectacular dessert buffet. These specifics highlight the level of opulence and dedication to a truly high-end experience for their guests.
The Summer House Reunion: Who Flew to Italy?
One of the biggest draws for Bravo fans was the star-studded guest list. Despite the distance and the ongoing drama between some cast members, the wedding served as a massive Summer House reunion, showcasing the genuine friendships Andrea forged on the show. The following Bravo stars made the trip to Verona for the celebration:
- Lindsay Hubbard and Carl Radke (The couple attended together, just months before their own eventual split, making this a significant last appearance for them as a pair.)
- Kyle Cooke (Attended solo, as his wife, Amanda Batula, was notably absent, though it was reported to be due to prior commitments.)
- Danielle Olivera
- Jason Cameron (Andrea's close friend and fellow Winter House alum)
- Samantha Feher
- Alex Wach
The presence of so many current and former cast members—including Lindsay, Carl, and Danielle, who were in the middle of their own complex dynamics—underscores Andrea’s role as a beloved, unifying figure within the Bravo family. The group shared numerous photos and videos on social media, giving fans a glimpse into the joyful, high-energy wedding party, which included a lot of dancing and celebrating the happy couple.
Lexi Sundin: More Than Just a Model
While Andrea is the more recognized reality star, his bride, Lexi Sundin, is an accomplished model in her own right. She is not just a stunning beauty, but also a former contestant on the hit series Project Runway. The couple met in 2021 and navigated the challenges of a long-distance and public relationship, ultimately leading to their commitment. Lexi’s background in fashion and modeling perfectly complements Andrea's career, making them a true power couple in the entertainment and lifestyle space.
The engagement itself was a huge moment, announced by Andrea during the BravoCon 2023 panel, confirming that he had found his forever person. The wedding, held just seven months later, was the perfect next chapter in their love story, solidifying their commitment in a setting that was both deeply personal—Andrea’s hometown—and incredibly luxurious.
What’s Next for the Newlyweds?
With the wedding behind them, Andrea and Lexi are now settling into married life. The couple's focus will likely shift to their careers and enjoying their life together, splitting time between the US and Italy. The lavish, traditional, and star-studded nature of their Italian wedding has set a new standard for Bravo-lebrity nuptials and proves that sometimes, the drama of the Hamptons can lead to a true, lifelong fairytale.
