Question
Are children welcome at the wedding?
Answer
Although we love your children, we regretfully cannot accommodate everyone's children at our wedding, less immediate family! We hope you see this as an opportunity to take the night off and enjoy the party with us!
Question
Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?
Answer
Our wedding events will be outdoors so don't forget sunglasses and sunscreen! The weather in Cabo in April is typically sunny with temperatures in the mid 80s during the day and mid 60s in the evening. A sweater or other light layer is recommended for the evening events.
Question
What should I wear?
Answer
The requested attire for the weekend's events is noted below: Friday night's events - Evening Fiesta Attire (think pants and guayaberas/button down shirts for men; and nice sundresses or other attire for a night on the town in Mexico for women). Saturday night's events - Cocktail Attire (think cocktail dresses or formal jumpsuits for women; and suits or jackets and slacks for men). The temperatures drop somewhat at night in Cabo so we suggest women bring a sweater or other warm layer that evening. Sunday's events - Casual Attire (anything works, including travel clothes).
Question
Anything I should know about the Wedding food before making a selection?
Answer

Question
What currency do they use in Cabo?
Answer
The peso is Mexico's national currency, though many places in the Cabo area accept US dollars for convenience. Major credit cards are also accepted in most establishments. Banks offer currency exchange during business hours. ATMs are also widely available for cash withdrawals at the current exchange rate, and most ATMs have menus in English.
Question
Can I drink the water in Mexico?
Answer
As a rule of thumb, you should stick to bottled or purified water in Mexico. The Cape, other resorts and hotels and most local restaurants only serve purified water so you should be good to drink the water there (but confirm with the venue to be safe) and yes, the ice is made with purified water at those locations so it is safe.
