good morning ladies, gentlemen and distinguished guests.
Buon giorno Signore, Signori e Distinti Ospiti.


Explanation:
One of the meanings of the adjective "distinto" is "distinguished, refined".
Reference: Webster's New World Italian Dictionary.

I have used the search engine Google and have found out that the phrase "distinti ospiti" is mentioned in 141 Italian websites. Here is an example of its usage in an introduction to a speech:
"Signore, Signori, Distinti Ospiti. Sono molto onorato di trovarmi di nuovo all'international Amiga 98 qui a Toronto."
(Ladies, Gentlemen, Distinguished Guests. I am very honored to find myself again at International Amiga 98 here in Toronto).
