Kourtney Kardashians and her fiance Travis Barker are tying the knot in Italy after a Vegas “practise wedding” in April and a legal ceremony in Santa Barbara earlier this month. The couple chose Castello Brown, a 16th-century castle in Portofino’s beach village, for their wedding ceremony.

Portofino is a picture-perfect wedding destination, located on the northern Italian coast about southeast of Genoa. The castle not only has stunning views of Portofino Bay and the Mediterranean Sea but it is also steeped in history.
According to the venue’s website, Castello Brown was a military fortress that dates back to 1425. The castle was taken over by the French in the eighteenth century, and Napoleon Bonaparte even fortified the structure with his men to keep British ships out.

The English Consul Montague Yeats Brown, who restored the castle into a private residence in the nineteenth century, gave it his name. Since 196, it is owned by the Municipality of Portofino.
The Castello is now a private event venue available for weddings and other parties, as well as art displays and gourmet events. According to their “Rates” page, renting the castle costs between 3,500 and 5,000 Euros (about $3,700-$5,300).
