Question

How do I RSVP?

Answer

Confirm your attendance by telling us directly! Feel free to message or call us once you're sure you can come to the wedding so we can mark you down as "Going" on our personal guest list.

Question

How do I book a room at the Manila Marriott Hotel?

Answer

You can book directly on the Marriott website or on your favorite third-party booking site (we personally like Booking.com!). If you get a room at the Marriott, we recommend getting a room in the West Wing if you'd like to be closer to the Diplomatic Hall, where our reception will be.

Question

Do I have to stay at the Marriott Hotel?

Answer

Not necessarily! Those who live in Metro Manila can easily go to and from our venues from home. And if you're traveling from elsewhere, there are plenty of other hotel options around Newport World Resorts other than Marriott, including the Hilton, Sheraton, Hotel Okura, and Belmont Hotel (which is right across the Diplomatic Hall!). There are also lots of AirBnB options that are walking distance from the Marriott Grand Ballroom. Don't worry, you won't miss any of our events if you don't stay at the Marriott the days leading up to the wedding!

Question

What dates should we stay at the Marriott?

Answer

If you'd like to stay at the Marriott, we recommend at least staying from Jan 10 (Sat) - 12 (Mon). That's when we'll be there, too! We strongly advise against checking in or out of the hotel on the day of the wedding itself as it may disrupt your ability to fully enjoy the celebration.

Question

Do you have special room rates for guests at the Marriott?

Answer

We wish we could give our guests a discount on rooms! But unfortunately, we don't have discounted rates to share with guests who would like to book a stay at the Marriott. Really sorry about that!

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

While we would love to include everybody, we're on a strict guest count due to venue restrictions. We should have let you know how many seats we've allotted for you when we sent the Save the Date. If you're not sure if you have a plus one, please check with us!

Question

Are children welcome?

Answer

As much as we love your little ones, we also can't invite all of them. We will include an allotted number of seats for your party, including children, when we send the Save the Date or invite.

Question

Can I bring my pets?

Answer

In another life, we'd love to make your fur babies a part of our big day! Unfortunately, our venues are not pet-friendly. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving your much-loved pets at home so you can celebrate with us.

Question

How do we go from the church to the reception venue?

Answer

Feel free to make your way to the Marriott however is easiest for you! You can drive, hitch a ride with another guest, or for big groups, book a van service, just to spare you the hassle of driving in your gowns and suits.

Question

Where should I park?

Answer

Both the church and reception venue have tons of parking spaces for guests. For guests who aren't staying at the Marriott, please go straight to the basement parking of the Marriott Grand Ballroom, NOT the hotel parking.

Question

Will I have to pay for parking at the Marriott Grand Ballroom?

Answer

Yes, but the fee is quite reasonable at a flat rate of P150 (even if you leave past midnight!).
