Question

I need to know more about airfare.

Everyone is booking their own airfare in order to accommodate our differences in departure locations. For your convenience, please make sure you are booking your flight to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic (PUJ). There are other airports in the Dominican Republic but much further away.

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

To RSVP please make your hotel room deposit to our wedding planner. Room deposits help us better count those who plan on attending. Deposits are $200 and are due by February 28th.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

The ceremony will begin at 5pm. Guests are required to meet in the main lobby of Majestic Mirage for transportation to the wedding venue. We'll send out more specifics about transportation to the venue soon.

Question

Will there be a reception?

Answer

Yes! Our reception is immediately after the ceremony at the same location. Let's have a great time!

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Yes! We ask that all of our guests wear either ivory, cream, or beige and dress "beach semi-formal". Look good, feel good, and be wedding photos ready! We recognize that it's going to be hot and our ceremony will be on the beach's sand so we also want to remind you to dress comfortable. If you need help with what to wear consider some of these points pulled from Brides.com: Beach Semi-Formal: For women, a dress, suit, formal romper, or jumpsuit all work for a semi-formal beach wedding. Avoid anything too loud or any style that might clash with the venue. If you choose to wear a beachy dress, consider it in either tea-length or maxi length to avoid looking too casual. Dressy sandals, chunky heels, and wedges are acceptable footwear options. For men, while a tuxedo or suit jacket isn’t required, a breathable blazer is a fun addition. Avoid anything too loud as well. Shoes can be a little more casual, but should be closed-toe, such as a loafer or deck (boat) shoe. You can also consider wearing a stylish yet mature men's sandal. If you have any questions feel free to reach out to Domonique and Confidence.

Question

How will we get from the hotel to the wedding ceremony?

Answer

We have coordinated roundtrip transportation for guests staying with us at Majestic Mirage both to and from the hotel and it is at no cost to you. We'll send out more information about transportation soon.

Question

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

Answer

Yes! We are planning an evening welcome event for a day or two before and a boat ride for the day after. We hope you can join us! We will update the schedule section soon with the info.
