Question

How do I RSVP?

Answer

To RSVP, simply navigate to the "RSVP" tab on our wedding website, where you'll find an easy-to-follow process for confirming your attendance. We look forward to celebrating with you!

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

We kindly request that you RSVP by February 11, 2026, to help us finalize our wedding details and ensure a seamless celebration.

Question

What if I miss the RSVP deadline?

Answer

Please note that if we don't receive your RSVP by the deadline indicated on the formal invitation, we will have to assume you're not attending. We truly hope to celebrate with you, but we need to provide our vendors with an accurate guest count and, unfortunately, won't be able to accept late RSVPs. Thank you for your understanding!

Question

Do I need a passport?

Answer

Yes, please check your passport's expiration date as soon as possible! Adult passports are valid for 10 years. Many countries—especially in Europe—require that your passport be valid at least 6 months beyond your travel dates. To be safe and avoid any last-minute hiccups, make sure your passport meets the requirements. You can find up-to-date information at travel.state.gov.

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

We're delighted you're planning to attend our wedding! For all the details on local accommodations and travel arrangements, please visit the "Travel" section of our wedding website.

Question

Can I bring a guest/date?

Answer

Due to venue capacity constraints, we can only welcome guests specifically listed on your invitation. If you're eligible for a plus one, it will be clearly indicated on your invitation and during the RSVP process. We appreciate your understanding as we create an intimate celebration with our nearest and dearest.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

We adore your little ones, but to keep our celebration intimate, our wedding weekend will be adults-only (18+). The only exception will be for our immediate family members. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to sharing our special day with you.

Question

Is there a dress code for the Wedding?

Answer

We're thrilled for our loved ones and close friends to dress up and celebrate with us in style! For our wedding ceremony, we kindly request formal attire with a few thoughtful guidelines: Ladies, please wear elegant floor-length dresses. Avoid wearing white or mini dresses. Gentlemen, suits are expected—ties are optional, but always add a sophisticated touch if you choose to wear one. Skipping a tie is acceptable provided the rest of the outfit is polished. Ladies, our venue includes grassy lawns and gravel paths, so we encourage you to choose your shoes with this in mind to move comfortably throughout the day.

Question

Is there a dress code for the Welcome Dinner?

Answer

We can’t wait to celebrate with you! We request that our guests dress in elegant cocktail attire for the evening. For the ladies, this means chic midi length dresses. Please avoid mini dresses. Gentlemen are encouraged to wear dark colored suits or a blazer with slacks. A tie is optional.

Question

Is there a dress code for the Farewell Brunch?

Answer

Join us for the Farewell Brunch in comfortable, semi-casual attire that allows you to relax and enjoy the final moments of our wedding celebration.

Question

Will transportation be provided to the ceremony?

Answer

We'll provide round-trip transportation between the villa and church for our ceremony. If you prefer to arrange your own travel, please inform us of your plans.

Question

Can I take photos during the ceremony?

Answer

We're having an "unplugged" ceremony, and we'd love for you to be fully present with us in the moment! We've got an amazing team of professional photographers capturing all the special moments, and we can't wait to share those beautiful photos with you afterward. Thank you for helping us keep this time intimate and meaningful!
