Question

What do I wear to a beach wedding?

Answer

The dress code for our wedding is beach chic. We will be getting married in April, so we want everyone to be as comfortable as possible, while also being picture ready! Example of proper attire: Women: Flowy Maxi Dress or a cocktail dress. Men: Shorts/pants with a button-down shirt

Question

How much does it cost?

Answer

This is a tough one because it depends on how long you will be staying, how many people are in your room, and what "level" of room you are wanting. I will give an example for a family of 3. Superior Room: 2 adults & 1 kid for 5 nights $131*2 adults * 5 nights = $1,310 $66*1 kid *5 nights = $330 $400/person for flights = $1,200 Estimated Total: $2,840 ($946/person)

Question

What should I pack?

Answer

Make sure to grab that passport so you can make your flight! Pack plenty of swimsuits/cover up, and some outfits for dinner, many restaurants have a dress code of evening casual (men are required to wear pants/jeans). Light sweater or jacket it can get chilly at night. Plenty of sunscreen, water shoes, reusable straw (resort does not have straws), beach bag, waterproof phone case, books/magazines, portable charger/phone charger, cash for tips and anything you'd like to buy, personal medications/prescriptions, pain reliever, face mask, earbuds, lip balm.
