VI. Good to Know

• Must have shoulders and legs covered when visiting churches.
• Muro Leccese is known for their rustic churches. 
• Puglia has widely followed ‘siesta’ times where stores are closed. 
• Roughly past lunch time.
• Try learning a handful of Italian sayings using free apps such as Duolingo. 
• Cc are used, but include a 22% VAT tax. This tax is refundable upon arrival back to the states. Keep all receipts! 

Good to Know (cont’d.)

• August is the off season for most of Italy, most stores will be closed or have temporary hours. 
• Plan your post-wedding activities accordingly! 
• July in southern Italy is characterized by heat up to 85 and light rain 
• Villas have adequate AC and the ceremony will be held in the shade / reception at night. But dress cool! 
• Consider purchasing a weeks worth of International service from your phone carrier. These are around $50 and a cheaper option!
