We suggest that men wear a Traditional Barong and women wear an evening gown, midi or knee-length cocktail dress. Our other only request is to please avoid wearing white for the women.

If you will take a nonstop commercial flight, its 19hrs and only Philippine Airlines offers the "non-stop" flight to the Philippines (they still make a stop in LA). All other flights are about 21-25 hours including one layover for 2-4 hours in Korea, Taiwan or Singapore depending on your airline.
Yes, shuttles will be provided to/from Church and reception and back to the hotel. Please RSVP so we will have an accurate head count for the number of shuttles we would need. No one gets left behind!
February is in the middle of the dry season. Expect temperatures of between 75°F and 88°F (23°C and 31°C) in most places.
Grab App. There is no Uber in the Philippines so we highly recommend downloading the GRAB APP and setting up your account before travelling to the Philippines. We have used this App when we last visited and it was easy to use. I would recommend using a credit card with no international fee.
Yes! Most establishments accept Mastercard, Visa, Discover and Amex but Cash is King everywhere!
The exchange rate clearly depends on the market but just to have an idea 1 USD is around 50-56 Php. There are banks around the city but you can also exchange Dollars to Philippine Peso at the airport right at the lobby, there are lines of windows for currency exchange. When we visited, we used the BDO Bank to exchange cash just before stepping out the airport to have some cash. BUT we do not recommend exchanging and carrying large denominations of cash.
Besides trying different yummy restaurants and soaking at the beach, we are currently in contact with a travel agent who can give the Philippine travel rates. Here is the Travel Agent that was recommended to us: Sheryl D. Epino Skyjeks@gmail.com, Jeks.Acctg@gmail.com +63-917-875-4255, +63-912-768-3042
Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift we could ask for!
