Our friend Kelly from New Zealand sent us a wonderful email. She just got married with Paolo, who is from Italy, and their wedding took place in beautiful Sorrento, in Italy. - She says her wedding day was perfect, from the ceremony to the reception. She just didn’t know how big weddings can be in Italy! Then she says: “How about a Culture Shot on Italian weddings? That’s definitely Italian culture…at its best!” What a good idea, Kelly! - So today let’s talk about the big day in Italy: il matrimonio Italiano! And by the way, congratulations, Kelly!

Hello Jane & Massimo!!! Very interesting subject, however, is there any problem with the recording? I couldn’t listen to the whole conversation… Peccato! Thank you…

Does the word “matrimonio” mean both “marriage” and “wedding”? - Love your podcast!

I had trouble getting this podcast for some reason. Is there something going on? Never had this problem before.

Hi. I’m having problems downloading this lesson too, via the RSS feed to iTunes. The podcast appears in my iTunes but I can’t “get” it, or make it play. I can listen to it using the player on this page, but I can’t save it.

I really do hope that Jane and Massimo will be able to help; this is the only lesson that is missing from my collection of wonderful LearnItalianPod lessons!
