MINNEAPOLIS, July 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Your wedding day. Now "That's Amore!" The planning. The preparation. The anticipation. A magical day for sure, and then in an instant it was over. It was a moment not to be forgotten, but now, for many, it's just a fading memory. But in the Twin Cities, local couples can experience their Big Day once again with Buca di Beppo.

As a part of its own 15th anniversary celebration in July, Buca di Beppo is inviting couples throughout the Twin Cities to join them for a special ceremony to renew their vows. At 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 23, Buca di Beppo will host the ceremony at their original downtown Minneapolis restaurant, located at 1204 Harmon Place.

Couples interested in tying the knot...again... are asked to R.S.V.P. by calling 612-288-0138 immediately, as space is limited. Buca di Beppo will host a reception for all participating couples immediately following the ceremony. Couples who reserve a spot at the ceremony are invited to bring along three others to share in the celebration and join them at the reception dinner.

Buca di Beppo's 15th anniversary celebration, scheduled July 14 to Aug. 10, also includes a menu featuring 15 of the restaurant's most popular original dishes, all offered at classic prices that recall better days when gas was just over $1 and movie tickets were a mere $4.25. In addition, Buca di Beppo is giving away more than 1 million party favors valued at $10 million. Every Buca di Beppo guest will receive a party favor during the anniversary celebration; prizes include dinners at the Pope's Table, parties at the highly-coveted Kitchen Table, and the ultimate prize: a chance to win a trip for four to Italy.
