Question

Do I need a Passport to travel to St. John?Do I need a Passport to travel to St. John?

Answer

No passport needed since St. John is part of the U.S. Virgin Islands, all you need to fly is a government-issued REAL ID. Starting **May 7, 2025**, a REAL ID will be required for all flights within the U.S. and its territories. If you don’t have one by then, you’ll need a passport to board your flight.

Question

How do I get to St. John?How do I get to St. John?

Answer

To reach St. John, you'll first fly into Cyril E. King Airport (STT) in St. Thomas, USVI. From there, it’s about a 35-40 minute drive to the Red Hook ferry terminal, where you’ll catch the ferry to Cruz Bay on St. John, which departs every hour on the hour. Taxis are easily accessible at the airport for this drive, but you also have the option to hire a private taxi if you prefer. The ferry ride itself is a quick 15-minute trip, and once you arrive in Cruz Bay, the venue is just a short drive away.

Question

Do we Need to Rent a Car?Do we Need to Rent a Car?

Answer

No, you don’t need to rent a car! Taxis are readily available on St. John and can easily take you from The Hills to downtown Cruz Bay or to the beach. Just keep in mind that rideshare services like Uber and Lyft don’t operate on the island. If you’re not comfortable driving on the left-hand side of the road (a unique twist on island driving!), a taxi is a great option. The island's terrain is quite hilly with lots of switchbacks, so while you can walk to downtown Cruz Bay from The Hills, be prepared for a bit of a workout. For those who want to explore the entire island at their own pace, renting a car is a good option. For a more relaxed experience, taxis are the way to go!

Answer

Since our wedding will be outdoors at sunset, we ask that you dress in "Island Fancy" – stylish and sophisticated, but comfortable, as it will be warm! No need for tuxedos or formal suits, but we encourage you to wear something that’s both stylish and sophisticated. For men, linen suits or linen shirts with slacks are perfect for the island vibe. For women, think summer dresses or chic, dressy attire. Dress for the occasion and embrace the relaxed yet elegant island atmosphere!
