No bathing suits, dress for a casual afternoon at sea
MEETING POINT - Old Tunnel near Hotel Garden This is a 3 minute walk from Ravello central piazza. If you are facing the Duomo (cathedral) walk past it on the right side and through the tunnel. There will be vans waiting to take us down to Amalfi port. James and I will be in the central piazza in front of the Duomo by 9:30a if you'd like to meet us and we can escort you. Vans will be departing promptly at 10am from this meeting point to take us down to Amalfi for the boat. Please arrive early to make sure you don't miss the van. The ride will conclude at 3pm, at which point you are free to explore Amalfi. Vans will be available to return to Ravello at 6pm from the same point that we were dropped off (Amalfi Piazza Flavio Gioia). If you do not make it or want to stay later, I'm told there are many taxis available to take you back up to Ravello, and the public bus is a very economical way to get back to Ravello as well.

"Semi-formal" Gentlemen: Choose a light or dark suit or go more informal with dress slacks and a light shirt. Add a blazer and a tie, but know that one isn’t required. Ladies: When it comes to dresses, a beautiful afternoon dress, cocktail dress, dressy jumpsuit, or a pantsuit all work perfectly.
The ceremony will start promptly at 4:30p, so please arrive by 4:20p to get your seat. If you see someone sitting in a seat that you want, your instinct may be to punch them in the face and say "I'm sitting here! Beat it, sucka!" We urge you to curb this behavior and find another seat. Please maintain an air of dignity and decorum. This is Italy, after all, not an Olive Garden. Ladies, please note that the road to the venue will most likely be uphill from where you are staying (several steps). If you intend to wear heels, we recommend you wear sneakers or flat shoes on the walk to the venue and change once there. We are happy to store your extra set of shoes at the venue until the end of the evening (along with anything else you’d need to bring).

This is a buffet brunch, so bring your appetite! If you have a dietary restriction or allergy and are unsure about some of the food in front of you, please ask the wait staff about it.
