The weather - small meep for help

[westernind]

The wedding planner is giving me stress because she tends to offer options rather than giving me advice. I suspect that she has a list of services for Venice wedding which she's just going through, without thinking about it, and specifically without thinking about the fact that it's going to be February not July. So fr'instance, might be a tad cold for a wedding gondola, hmmm?

So a thing I would appreciate from anyone wot has been out there in the winter, is what Venetian weather is like in practice. I can look at weather websites, but that doesn't tell me whether there's a biting wind and no-one really wants to be on the water, or whether the canals tend to be sheltered and calm.

As I remember Venice in February was a tad chilly. On non costume days we did tend to wrap up (one pic of Anne and me shows some very red noses). However wandering round in costume wasn't to bad. Best ask Anne for a girls opinion (sure she will drop by here anyway).

However its was cold and dry s I recall. We did have some damp fog/mist a couple of times which is to be expected. But main memory clear, sharp and cold.

So sorry I will be missing your great day though :( Oh well least Dubai will be hot!
