JULY 1ST -- I ask that all guests confirm their attendance to each event by July 1st to allow ample time for planning and confirming with vendors.

Black Tie -- Guests are required to choose floor-length gowns and suits or tuxedos when attending this type of celebration, as this is the most formal dress code after white-tie attire.

Note: I ask that women avoid variations of gold and/or white dresses.

Piazza del Popolo -- The area surrounding Piazza del Popolo down the Via del Corso and up to the Spanish Steps on one side and the mausoleum of Augustus on the other is the perfect area to stay in order to remain walking distance to the weekend's events. This includes the major streets of Via del Babuino, Via del Corso, and Via di Ripetta.

Yes, the Golf Cart Tour - Children are welcome to attend the golf cart tour on Sunday. Please RSVP for yourself on the website and then text or email me to let me know the number of children attending so that I can confirm the total number of guests.

Friday and Saturday's receptions and dinners are for invited adults only.

Thursday, October 10th -- Travel, as we all know, can be tricky and result in delays due to weather and other issues. I recommend booking an overnight flight on Wednesday, October 9th, to arrive in Rome on Thursday, October 10th. If you don't have off for Columbus Day on Monday, October 14th, then that allows you to leave Sunday the 13th and arrive back home that same day. The golf cart tour on Sunday is totally optional and not nearly as important as Friday and Saturday's events.
