Question

What is a Catholic Nuptial Mass?

Answer

A Catholic Nuptial Mass is the traditional wedding ceremony celebrated within the context of the Catholic Church’s Eucharistic liturgy. It includes the full Mass along with the exchange of vows and rings. The focus is on both the sacrament of marriage and the couple’s union being blessed in the presence of God and the community. Guests of all faiths are welcome to attend; if you’re not Catholic, you can simply participate by joining in the prayers and songs and respectfully observing the rituals.

Question

Answer

Due to the location of the wedding, we are only able to accommodate the children that are listed on invitations. If your child is not listed, we hope that you are still able to join us and enjoy a weekend vacation!

Question

Answer

Both the ceremony and the reception will take place indoors.

Valet parking is available on-site for the venue. There is parking at the hotels near the church and in some surrounding areas.

Question

Are you registered? How can I give a gift?

Answer

Your presence at our wedding is truly the greatest gift we could ask for! If you would like to honor us with something more, we ask that you go through the registry on our "registry" page and have your gift shipped to the listed address. Please do not bring any gifts with you to Mexico.

Question

How do I pay for things?

Answer

You can convert your USD to MXN currency at the airport ATMs. In order to get the best conversion rates, however, I would recommend using a credit card that doesn't charge any foreign transaction fees (Chase is good) to make your purchases and not worry about conversion.

Question

what should I expect after the ceremony?

Answer

After the ceremony the newlyweds will be taking a few photos with family members. We ask that everyone transition to the reception venue (8 minutes away), get settled, and enjoy the welcome drinks before dinner.

Question

Can I take and post pictures of the wedding on social media?

Answer

We ask that you refrain from taking photos during the ceremony out of respect for the Mass and the Sacrament taking place. We have a dedicated photographer and videographer who will be capturing all of the moments. For the rest of the wedding, we encourage guests to take as many pictures as you want and share them!
