Dear friends and family, Welcome to Lake Como! We are so happy you made the trip to celebrate with us. Having you here means the world, and we hope you love this place as much as we do. The weekend at a glance • Friday 7 pm: Welcome drinks at the hotel terrace • Saturday 4 pm: Ceremony, followed by dinner and dancing • Sunday 11 am: Farewell brunch Everything starts from Villa Pizzo. If you need anything at all, just ask us or the hotel team. A few local tips • Public ferries (Navigazione Laghi) link Bellagio, Varenna, Menaggio and Tremezzo every 20 to 30 minutes in season. • Tipping: Not expected. Many restaurants add a small "coperto" cover charge per person. Rounding up or leaving 5 to 10% for great service is appreciated. • Dinner usually starts between 8 and 9:30 pm. Many kitchens close between lunch and dinner. Things to do, restaurants and day plans for your free time are on our guest page: https://guestdaysout.com/w/sara-and-tom Share your photos with #SaraAndTomSayIDo so we can see the weekend through your eyes.

What to put in a destination wedding welcome letter

  1. A real thank-you. Guests spent money and holiday days to be there. Say it first.
  2. The schedule. Every event with day, time, place, dress code and how to get there. This is the part guests keep.
  3. Practical local tips. How tipping works, when people eat dinner, how to get around. Our generator fills these in for your destination.
  4. Things to do. A short list, or a link and QR code to a guest page with tours, restaurants and a map.
  5. Who to call. A planner or a friend's number for questions, so you are not answering texts on the wedding day.

Put the letter on top in the welcome bag, along with water, a local snack and something for the morning after.

Questions

What should a wedding welcome letter say?

Thank guests for coming, give the weekend schedule with times and places, add a few practical local tips, and point to where they can find things to do. Sign it from both of you.

How long should a welcome bag note be?

One page at most. Guests read it in a hotel room after a long trip, so short sections and clear times work best.

Should the welcome letter include the schedule?

Yes. It is the one piece of paper every guest will have in hand, so list every event, the time, the place and any dress code or transport details.

Can we add a QR code to the welcome letter?

Yes. Create a free guest page and print its QR card next to the letter, so guests can open the map, restaurants and tours on their phone.
