FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP by August 1st, to help us finalize the arrangements and ensure everything is prepared for your attendance. We kindly ask that you respond by this date to assist us with accurate planning.

Question

Are you registered? Where?

Answer

No, we are not registered anywhere. Your attendance is all we hope for, and we understand that taking a vacation is already a lot to ask. We truly don't need any gifts—your presence at our special day is the greatest gift we could receive!

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

For those looking for budget-friendly accommodation in Rome, there are several great options that offer comfort without the high price tag. Hotel Santa Maria, located in the charming Trastevere district, provides a cozy and peaceful environment, perfect for a more intimate stay. Hotel Colosseum, situated near the iconic Colosseum, offers simple and spacious rooms with great value. The Romehello, a modern hostel near Termini Station, is ideal for guests seeking a social atmosphere with both private rooms and dormitories. For a central location, Hotel Delle Nazioni near the Spanish Steps offers a convenient stay at an affordable price. Hotel Madison, close to Termini Station, is another excellent choice for guests who want easy access to public transport and Rome’s key attractions. We recommend booking early to ensure the best rates and availability!

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

For a wedding in Rome in October, especially in a Catholic church, we recommend dressing modestly and semi-formally to respect the sacred setting and cultural norms. Women should opt for a knee-length or midi dress with sleeves and a modest neckline, paired with shoes such as flats or low to mid-heeled pumps. A lightweight shawl or jacket may be needed for cooler temperatures. Men should wear a suit in a neutral color like navy, grey, or charcoal, paired with a dress shirt, tie, and dark leather shoes. A blazer or light jacket may be added for warmth.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

We recommend arriving at least 20-30 minutes before the ceremony begins to ensure you have enough time to find your seat and settle in. This will also give you a chance to enjoy the atmosphere before the celebration starts.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

There isn't parking available for the ceremony or reception. We recommend using Uber or taking public transportation to make your journey easier.
