&
Benvenuti
We are delighted to welcome you to Florence as we celebrate our marriage. Each of you has supported us in meaningful ways throughout our lives, across Germany, the Netherlands and the United States, and we are deeply grateful that you will be with us for such an important moment. We hope to take this time to slow down, to savor wonderful food and exceptional wine, and to dance with all of our favorite people in one place.
Thank you for making the journey to celebrate with us. We cannot wait to share this beautiful city with you.

Good to Know
Weather
Early September
Florence is warm and mostly sunny, with average highs of 26 to 29°C (79 to 84°F) and lows of 15 to 17°C (59 to 63°F)
Evenings in the hills of Settignano can be cooler, so we suggest bringing a light layer
Time Zone
Central European Summer Time
Florence is six hours ahead of New York and nine hours ahead of Los Angeles
Germany and the Netherlands share the same time as Italy
Adapters
230 volts, Type C, F & L
Guests from the United States will need a plug adapter. Most phone and laptop chargers work with an adapter alone, while hair tools made only for 110 to 120 volts also need a converter
Guests from Germany and the Netherlands can use their usual plugs in most sockets
