As much as we LOVE you all 😂! We'll be super busy the whole week, we're going to create a group chat on WhatsApp so that we're all on the same page (our parents and/or siblings will be staying with us at the farm), so they're respond on our behalf. Please download WhatsApp if you don't have it <3
We recommend you exchange dollars to Colombian COP Pesos in the U.S. In Colombia they accept credit cards almost everywhere, but if you go to small towns, it'll probably be cash. So take some cash with you at all times just in case
They don't have a precise street address, but Google this name and you'll find it! Matecaña International Airport - PEI

Yes, but ONLY on our wedding day from the Church to the wedding reception. You are responsible in taking your own uber from your hotel to the church. We ask that you're early please, our wedding starts at 4:00pm. Don't worry, getting Ubers there is very easy just like here!
We're staying with our immediate family at the farm where the wedding reception will be held, but we'll be hosting the Sunday pool event here so you can relax as well!
15 minutes without traffic! But, because we gave you many different hotel options, I suggest you double check how far. The furthest hotel recommendation from the hotel we gave is 25 minutes away from the airport
3 minutes! Remember, we'll have transpiration available for you all from to church to the reception
