Samantha Matthias

&

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 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 79 to 84°F (26 to 29°C) and lows of 59 to 63°F (15 to 17°C)

Evenings in the hills of Settignano can be cooler, so we suggest bringing a light layer

Central European Summer Time

Florence is six hours ahead of New York

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
