Jessie and Simon's Wedding - Florence and Fiesole 30th August 2009
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Please note that Florence is pretty small and so if you pick a hotel that is fairly close to the Arno (the river) and one that is pretty central, you WILL be close to the venue for the ceremony and can avail yourself of the transport arrangements to get you back to the Hotel.
For clarity, the position is as follows: the Ceremony is in Florence which you have to get to yourselves (see the Ceremony) You will then be taken to the Reception and after, there will be transport laid on to get back to your Hotel, if it is relatively central. If not, you will need a taxi.
We have also suggested some hotels in Fiesole which is very close to the Reception.
