Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan’s recent low key wedding was the fitting beginning to an equally romantic and low key honeymoon. The pair have been spotted out and about in Rome, Italy taking in the sites (and carbs). Rome is one of my favorite cities in the world! And one of the most popular places for visitors to enjoy is the Spanish Steps. Reports say that Mr. and Mrs. Zuckerberg stayed just steps away from the famous steps, in an ultra modern swanky hotel called Portrait Suites. The famous duo put this luxury property on the map last week so we thought we would take a look at what makes a couple who could stay anywhere in the world, chose here.
This mini mod palace reflects the style of Rome in the 50‘s and makes you feel like you’ve been transported into a swanky fashion studio with all the amenities of home (hidden kitchen included). With rooftop views of the city and suites that you could get lost in, honeymooners with a flair for style and city living will love it here.

For that Roman holiday shopping experience, there’s a Ferragamo experience when you book a suite (somehow we doubt this understated couple has opted in for this royal treatment).

Cocktails on the terrace, strolls to the Spanish Steps, sightseeing by day and private dinners for two – I have no doubt you will fall in love with Rome just as I (and Mr. and Mrs. Zuckerberg) have.

But what is there for you and your guests to do away from the beach in Hawaii? Hum. Well, let’s start with nature walks, horseback riding, tennis, lawn bowling, croquet, spa, sun and pool, 4×4 sand dune riding adventures, oh, and spectacular golf too. I wandered up to the course one morning and came upon the perfect wedding ceremony site, a hole overlooking a secluded valley, separated from all other parts of the world. A setting so unique, how golfers manage not to get distracted is beyond me.
With so many idyllic options, activities, and, really, styles to choose from, your wedding can be as unique or diverse as you’d like it to be. Opt for a hotel buyout and perhaps your reception site will be encased by the massive lobby fireplaces as you sip after dinner drinks and tell stories. If you prefer the outdoors, golf, grass, or patio options are abundant! (I’ve even heard of a rehearsal dinner in the horse stables just at the end of the drive).
