FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

RSVPs are due by January 12th 2026. Since this is a destination wedding, this deadline is firm, as we must provide final guest numbers to our venue. If we do not receive your RSVP by the deadline, we will sadly have to assume you are unable to attend, and we won’t be able to accommodate you at the wedding. We truly appreciate your understanding and your support as we plan our special day!

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

As much as we love your little ones, due to our guest count, we can only accommodate immediate family children at our wedding. We truly appreciate your understanding and hope you can still join us in celebrating! Of course, if you're bringing your kids to Portugal, they are more than welcome to enjoy the trip—we just kindly ask that they don’t attend the wedding or reception. Thank you for your support! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For any young children attending the wedding ceremony and formal moments—such as the first dance—we kindly ask that if a child is crying, they be taken outside or to another room. We truly appreciate your understanding and cooperation. Thank you!

Question

Can I bring a date/ have a plus one?

Answer

Our wedding guest list is limited to those listed on the invitation. If a significant other isn’t included, we’re unfortunately unable to accommodate a plus one. We truly appreciate your understanding and can’t wait to celebrate with you!

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

We kindly ask that guests refrain from wearing white. Please note that our ceremony will take place in a Catholic Church, so we ask that you dress and act respectfully in accordance with the setting. We also request that guests do not wear shorts or jeans. While the attire does not need to be overly formal, we kindly ask that you dress appropriately for a wedding. Thank you!

Question

Are there any other events that I should know about around the wedding?

Answer

Yes! We’re planning to host a lunch the day after the wedding, and everyone is welcome to join. We’re still finalizing the details, but we’ll share more information soon! If you’re part of the wedding party, please plan to attend the rehearsal at the church, followed by a dinner the evening before the wedding. Details will be shared separately with everyone involved—stay tuned!

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Yes, there are three nearby hotels that you’re welcome to book at your convenience. I’ll be listing these hotel options on the website for easy access. If you prefer to stay elsewhere—whether that’s another hotel, an Airbnb, or a VRBO—you’re more than welcome to book whatever accommodations work best for you!

Question

Should I extend my trip?

Answer

Yes! We highly recomend extending your trip either before the wedding, after, or even both! Of course it is recomended to arrive ahead of time to accomate to the time change but to also explore. We have had the amazing privledge to explore Portugal previously and it is beyond stunning. We would love for you to take the time to explore this beautful country to its fullest. If you will be extending your trip we would love to hear about your plans.
