Question
When should I RSVP by?
Answer
The sooner the better. However, we completely understand the plans can change and it may be tough to plan in advance, especially when you are traveling abroad for our wedding. Please inform us of your attendance at the latest by August 1st, 2024. As this is a small-sized wedding with an exceptionally intimate setting, we would love to be notified sooner if your plan should change.
