The wedding will be held at the Borgo del Convento in Soverato on Saturday August 30, 2025. It is an hour or so away from Calabria's Lamezia Terme International, or Reggio Calabria Airports. Taxis, airport shuttles and rental car agencies are available from there.

As a reminder, taxi services and Ubers do not work as we know them to, so renting a car or carpooling is advised. Otherwise, there is public transport to access, which is quite easy PLUS venues for day 1 & 2 are walkable from the main beach strip (where Hotel Villa Ersillia is located).

The program is now finalised and all details can be found on the "Weekend Program" page.

If your RSVP has changed for any reason, for any events, please let us know at your soonest.

Calabria has a Mediterranean climate with hot dry summers and mild winters. August is typically the hottest month in Calabria with the temperature reaching about 30℃ during the day, falling away to a balmy 22℃ at night.

As we the wedding is at the end of the month, it should be cooler as we go into the fall, but keep in mind the usuals for such weather: sun screen, water, fans, hats, light sweaters or shawls.

The deadlines have now passed, but if for any reason your RSVP has changed for any of the events, please let us know at the soonest so we may update our vendors.

If there are factors that you are working on and require more time, please let us know.

We only ask for your presence! Thank you in advance for the consideration, but we know that it is not easy to get to Calabria, so we very much appreciate that you will join us for our happy weekend, which means so much to us. 

However, if you are the insisting type, or this falls in line with customary beliefs, we welcome anything as a reflection of your friendship, which could also be through a kind donation to an animal shelter of your choice, or where we adopted our Badger and Tenuki, to help other furry friends find their forever homes.
