FAQs
1. Where will the wedding take place?
The wedding will be held at the Borgo del Convento in Catanzaro on Saturday August 30, 2025. It is an hour or so away from Calabria's Lamezia Terme International Airport. Taxis, airport shuttles and rental car agencies are available.
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.
2. What are the main events?
Some details are yet to be finalised so do keep checking the Weekend Program page when you can.

More details on these events will be shared soon but RSVPs are required for both events.
3. What will the weather be like?
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.
