GRAZIE MILLE

At what time should I arrive at the ceremony? 

The ceremony will begin promptly at 4:00 PM. Please arrive a bit earlier so you can grab a welcome drink and find your seat without rushing - we’d love for everyone to be settled before we walk down the aisle.

What can I expect from the aperitivo? 

Aperitivo is an Italian tradition centered around drinks and light bites meant to awaken the appetite before dinner. Social, generous, and absolutely delicious - just don’t fill up too much, because dinner will follow... and it’s a full-on Italian celebration. You’ve been warned ;)

Dinner under the Tuscan stars?

Absolutely!&nbsp;We’re dining al fresco.Expect sunny afternoons and evenings that cool down after dark. We recommend bringing a light jacket or a shawl/pashmina to stay comfortable.

Timeline

¡Estoy profundamente orgullosa de mi familia!Ante todo y siempre, hija de Martín Pérez. La fotocopia de María Eugenia Vicentini.Hermana mayor de Sebastián Pérez, Maximiliano, Paola y Rodrigo Pérez Surmiak.Prima de artistas y activistas. Doctores, educadores. Poetas, empresarios y exploradores.Orgullosísima de mi familia: valientes, honestos, amables.Algunos en Venezuela, y otros regados por todas partes.En enero de 1992 cumplí 4 años y vivía en Maryland, USA. Mi tía Alicia Vicentini me escribió un cuento: “La niña de la pícara sonrisa”, una historia que quiero compartir con ustedes, y que me describe tal y como sigo siendo hoy: curiosa, conversadora y aventurera.Treinta y tres años después, la aventura continúa. No ha sido fácil estar lejos. La distancia nos ha robado muchos momentos. Poder reunirnos en Italia fue mi deseo a los Reyes Magos: tenerlos cerca, abrazarlos, y juntos dar la bienvenida a los Floyd a nuestra familia. Para así comenzar un nuevo capítulo en la historia de nuestras vidas. Andreína Eugenia Pérez Vicentini

I am extremely proud of my family!First and foremost, I'm the daughter of Martín Pérez. The spitting image of my mother María Eugenia Vicentini.Big sister to Sebastián Pérez, Maximiliano, Paola, and Rodrigo Pérez Surmiak.Cousin to artists and activists. Doctors, teachers. Poets, entrepreneurs, and explorers.So proud of my family - brave, honest, and kind.Some in Venezuela, others scattered around the world.In January 1992, I turned 4 while living in Maryland, USA. My aunt, Alicia Vicentini, wrote a story about me: “The Girl with the Mischievous Smile,” a tale that I want to share with you and that still describes me perfectly - curious, talkative, and always up for an adventure.Thirty-three years later, the adventure continues. Being far away hasn't been easy. Distance has taken many moments from us. Gathering in Italy was my wish to the Three Wise Kings: to bring everyone close, to hold them tight, and together welcome the Floyd family into ours - so we can begin writing the next chapter in the story of our lives. Andreína Eugenia Pérez Vicentini

Había una vez una familia que tenía solamente niñitos varones, cada vez que les llegaba un bebé, venía con escarpines azules y todos estaban felices por eso; hasta que un día quisieron tener también una niñita entre ellos y lo desearon con tanta fuerza, que los Reyes Magos los complacieron, llevándoles una preciosa y chiquitica nenita.&nbsp; Esta niña fue la alegría de todos, siempre se reía, con una sonrisa entre dulce y pícara que le abría todas las puertas.&nbsp; Fue creciendo rapidito y aprendió a gritar durísimo, parecía una cantante de ópera ensayando una canción. Cuando pegaba sus chillidos: los vidrios de la casa temblaban de miedo, como si se fueran a romper y todos se tapaban los oídos, cosa que la divertía muchísimo, haciéndola gritar una y otra vez.&nbsp; Hasta sus amigos: los animales, huían despavoridos al escuchar aquellos gritos y luego la niñita tenía que salir a buscar a la gata y sus gaticos, a la perra y calmar a los pericos, desenterrar a la tortuga y reunir a los pollitos. Y a otros animales más, porque esta niña tuvo la suerte de tener un zoológico con quien jugar.&nbsp; Además, tenía primitos de todos los tamaños y colores para compartir sus juegos y pelear a montones.&nbsp; Era flaquita como espagueti pero se comía dos bistecks de 6 a 7. Le gustaba la carnita con papitas fritas, pero lo más extraño era: que le encantaba “una arepita”.&nbsp; Como aprendió a hablar muy rápido, pronto se convirtió en una gran conversadora: hablaba con todo el mundo, hasta cuando no habían personas, porque entonces conversaba con los animales, o con la muñecas y hasta se volvió inventora: creó unos amiguitos invisibles a quienes regañaba a toda hora.&nbsp; Después aprendió a cantar y cantaba cual vitrola: unas las aprendía del radio y otras las inventaba sola.&nbsp; Su mamá entonces, la mandó al colegio para que aprendiera canciones de moda. Todos los días aprendía y aprendía muchas cosas hasta que un día quiso aprender un nuevo idioma, para conversar con otras gentes y buscar canciones diferentes. Quería conocer lugares con árboles de colores y ríos con duendes. Quería conocer la nieve y saber lo que era el frío, para ponerse bufanda, botas y abrigo.&nbsp; Así que un día, se fue a vivir a otro país, en busca de aventuras y de cosas MIL. Pero en la casa, ya los vidrios no temblaron ni se escuchó más su risa, los animales prepararon sus maletas y salieron de prisa, buscando a la niña de la pícara sonrisa.&nbsp; Por un tiempo todos estuvieron algo tristes, hasta que llegaron cartas y fotos que los hicieron felices. Desde entonces todos esperan que les lleguen noticias de la niña aventurera.&nbsp; Y colorin, colorado,&nbsp;Este cuento se ha acabado. Fin&nbsp;Enero ‘92&nbsp;

La niña de la pícara sonrisa

Once upon a time, in a house full of boys,Each baby arrived bringing blue bootie joys.Each birth was a blessing, a reason to cheer,Till one day they whispered: “A girl would be dear.” They wished with such strength, their hearts full of light,That the Three Wise Kings heard them that night.And soon they were gifted, to their great delight,A tiny sweet girl - their star shining bright. She laughed all the time, she sparkled and played,With a smile both clever and sweetly displayed.It opened up doors, turned frowns into glee,She brought joy to all, as bright as could be. She grew up quite fast and learned how to shout,Like an opera diva just letting it out.When she shrieked, the windows would quiver with fear,And everyone nearby would cover their ear. That only amused her - she’d shout once again,And giggle in triumph like it was a game.Even her animal friends would retreat,In terror they’d scatter from that tiny feat. So off she would go, her animal search begun:The cat and her kittens, the dog on the run,The parrots she’d soothe, the turtle she’d find,The chicks she would gather, one step at a time. She lived with a zoo - lucky, indeed!With creatures galore to chase and to feed.And cousins of every size, color, and shape,To laugh with, to squabble with, and to escape. She was skinny as spaghetti but ate like a queen,Two steaks for dinner - a sight to be seen! She spoke early on and had lots to say,She chatted with people all night and all day.And when no one was there? She still wouldn’t stop -She’d talk to her dolls or the pets in the shop. Then one day she crafted some friends of pure air -Imaginary buddies were suddenly there!She scolded them daily, and gave them a name,(Though they disappeared when adults came). She learned how to sing - a jukebox in bloom!Some songs from the radio, some made in her room.So off to school her mother did send her,To learn the songs trending with rhythm and splendor. Each day she would grow, her curiosity wide,Until one day she said, bright-eyed:“I want to learn languages - travel the earth!Find forests with colors and rivers of mirth. I want to feel snow, to know what is cold,To wear scarves and boots, to be brave and bold!” So one day she left, off to explore,Seeking adventure, new sights, and much more.And back in her home, the windows stood still -No more trembles, no laughter or thrill. The animals packed up their bags one by one,And rushed off to find where the girl had gone.Her mischievous smile had vanished from sight,So they followed her trail into the night. At home they felt empty, a little bit blue,Until letters and photos came shining through.And since that day, with love and with cheer,They all await news from their girl so dear. And just like all stories that must meet their end,This tale now closes, dear family and friends. The EndJanuary, 1992

The Girl with the Mischievous Smile

Andreina

I was born in Santa Barbara on January 2, 1990, and shared the same birthday as Nana, my Italian great grandmother, Yola Begell.&nbsp;&nbsp; My parents, Mike and Gina Floyd, moved the three of us to Solvang, in the beautiful Santa Ynez Valley, where I grew up.&nbsp;&nbsp; I’m the oldest of three – big brother to Kenzie and Grace.&nbsp;My childhood was filled with sports – soccer, baseball, and volleyball, and all manner of adventures with friends.&nbsp;Beach days, jeep rides in the mountains, snowboarding, dirtbikes, airsoft guns, and poker nights.&nbsp;Schedules were busy, but we almost always managed to sit down for family dinners each night.&nbsp;&nbsp; This instilled in me a love and loyalty to my family and loved ones.&nbsp;Be it family camp every summer, or counting down the days to visit Grammy and Grandpa in Lake Tahoe, they’ve given me a strong foundation and appreciation for the moments of quality time, even living across the world from each other these days.&nbsp;&nbsp; For as long as I can remember, I’ve loved to ask questions.&nbsp;This curiosity has led me to live abroad, first to study in Italy, then to teach (and mostly backpack) in Thailand, 5 years in San Francisco, and for the last 8 years, Amsterdam. Despite the distance, maintaining connection with family and close friends has always been a priority, not just to me, but for Andreina as well.&nbsp;&nbsp; We couldn’t be more excited and grateful to celebrate our love and union with all our family and friends around us, in beautiful Tuscany, Italy.

Travel

Why Italy?

As if pizza, pasta, gelato and wine weren't a good enough reason.We both really do love Italy! SEAN'S first connection to Italy was sharing the same birthday as Nana, his Italian great grandmother. A spring break class trip at 16 paved the way to taking Italian at UCSB, and then studying abroad in Siena and Bologna. ANDREINA was 15 when she went on a two-week tour bus adventure around Italy.She’s convinced that Italian is, in fact, the one true language of love. Her Nonna Gilda, born in Barletta, would be really happy to know that her granddaughter is getting married in Italy.

Is there a dress code for The Wedding?

Yes. Italy, but make it Disco!Go all out! Wear that outfit, try that bold look.We love a dressed-up crowd.(It's not a costume, just channel the vibe.) Note on shoes: There will be grass and uneven ground, choose your footwear wisely! Consider chunky heels or wedges.

What is the weather like in September? 

September is one of Tuscany’s best months: warm days and pleasant but noticeably cooler evenings. A light jacket or shawl/pashmina, for after dark is recommended.We’ll share an updated forecast about a week before the wedding.

The ceremony will begin promptly at 4:00 PM. Please arrive a bit earlier so you can grab a welcome drink and find your seat without rushing - we’d love for everyone to be settled before we walk down the aisle.
