Question

Why Guatemala?!

Answer

Why not?! We love to travel and experience new cultures and when we got engaged in Morocco we knew we wanted a unique destination for our wedding. We completely understand that your time and budgets are both valuable and may be limited but we would love for you to experience a new place with us. We tried to choose a location that was budget-friendly and closer to the US and we sincerely hope that you will join us!

Question

How do I get to Antigua?

Answer

You'll need to fly in to GUA airport in Guatemala City. Antigua is about an hour away. Our amazing planner is partnered with a travel agency and will arrange private transport so once you land, you'll find your private, english-speaking driver and hit the road! Please message patty@brideandgroomgt.com to coordinate your pick up.

Question

Do I need a passport?

Answer

Yes, you'll need a passport that is valid for at least 6 months past your entry date into Guatemala.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

The dress code is black-tie. For men, pants and a suit jacket and women long dresses. We would not recommend women in stiletto style shoes, there are cobblestone sidewalks that may make walking a little tricky, especially after a few cocktails!
