Question
Wedding Attire

We kindly ask that guests dress in elegant cocktail or dressy evening attire for our celebration. For women: Cocktail dresses, jumpsuits, or dressy separates are all welcome. Please note that the bridesmaids will be wearing coral, if that helps guide your color choice. For men: We recommend suits or dress pants with a button-down or collared shirt. The groom and groomsmen will be wearing beige suits. As a gentle reminder, we ask that guests refrain from wearing flip-flops, cargo pants, or overly casual attire.

Question
How is the weather?
Answer
The weather in Puerto Rico in February is typically warm, sunny, and very pleasant Here’s what you can usually expect: Average daytime highs: 83–85°F (28–29°C) Average nighttime lows: 72–74°F (22–23°C) Humidity: Moderate to high, but usually with a refreshing ocean breeze Rain: February is part of the dry season, so rain is minimal—just the occasional brief shower Ocean temperature: Around 78–80°F (great for swimming!)
Question
Should I rent a car?
Answer
If you want to explore sites and towns outside of the San Juan metro area, or if you'll be staying in more than one town during your visit (for example a few days in San Juan and then a few days in Rincón), then renting a car is a good idea. If you plan on staying around San Juan, an Uber will be just fine. We recommend using Ubers vs the local taxis (more cost effective).
Question
Are credit cards widely accepted in Puerto Rico?
Answer
Yes, credit and debit cards are widely accepted throughout Puerto Rico, especially in hotels, restaurants, and larger shops. Visa and Mastercard are the most commonly accepted, though many places also take American Express. It’s a good idea to carry a bit of cash for small vendors, street food, or more rural areas where card readers may not be available.
