We encourage all guests to wear formal attire. Formal dress code for women includes, floor length gowns and tea length dresses. Formal dress code for men includes suits and tuxes (please no jeans).
Unfortunately only the guests that are formally invited on your wedding invitation will be attending. If you received a plus one they will appear under your name when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding!
We love your little ones! However, the only children that will be at our wedding will be the two flower girls along with two more immediate family member’s children. It is overall an adults-only event. Thank you for understanding!
We are having a church ceremony which would be an “unplugged ceremony” (no phones or cameras). The greatest gift you can give us is being fully present as we say “I do”. We have hired professionals to capture this moment for us. After the ceremony, feel free to take as many photos and videos as you’d like!
In order to accommodate the regular schedule at St. Anthony’s Church, our ceremony needed to be earlier in the day. The old Portuguese ladies are expecting their 4:00pm mass. You may take the time to explore Newport while we await cocktail hour and dinner.
