FAQs
Question
What should I expect at a Catholic wedding ceremony?
Answer
Our wedding ceremony will include a full Catholic mass, which is approximately 1 hour. Programs will be provided outlining the order of events during the mass.

Question
What time should I arrive at the ceremony?
Answer
Since our ceremony is in a Catholic church, it must begin promptly at 3pm to accommodate later mass times. Please plan to be seated by 2:45pm or earlier to ensure there is no disruption to the start of mass.
Question
Is there parking for the ceremony and reception?
Answer
Free parking is available at the ceremony and reception sites. St. Raymond of Peñafort has its own parking lot. At The Coco Plum, there is a municipal parking lot on the east side of the building (on Sunset Drive) where guests can park free of charge.
Question
How far is the reception venue from the church?
Answer
The Coco Plum is located about 20 minutes from the church and Miami traffic can be unpredictable, so please head straight to the venue after the ceremony concludes!
Question
Do you have any hotel recommendations?
Answer
We have secured a block of hotel rooms at two hotels in the area, but guests are free to stay wherever they please! Please see the "Hotels" page for more information!
