FAQs
Question
What is a “Soft RSVP”?
Answer
A “soft RSVP” is an informal and rough headcount of who plans to attend. Think of a soft RSVP like an early pulse check to help us plan. This step will be very helpful given our wedding is abroad. This is not a formal commitment. You can edit your RSVP when we send out the formal invitations, if needed. Please Soft RSVP by 4/1/26. We hope you will join us!
Question
What is the best airport to fly into?
Answer
The closest airport to Marbella is Málaga–Costa del Sol Airport (AGP), about 30 minutes away by car. For anyone traveling from Newark, NJ—there is a nonstop option! From other U.S. cities, most flights connect through Madrid, Barcelona, or another European hub. Other nearby airport: Gibraltar International Airport (GIB), about 1 hour from Marbella If you want to—and can—extend your trip on the front end or back end, we recommend it! Flights within Europe are typically affordable.
Question
When should we arrive?
Answer
First and foremost—THANK YOU for making the trip! Our wedding festivities will begin on June 25th. As of today, we’re envisioning a pool party during the day & welcome dinner in the evening. Please check the schedule of events once formal invitations are sent. The events that are listed now are still tentative. Planning to explore more in Europe? The July 4th holiday is the week after our wedding—aka bonus vacation days!
Question
Will there be events outside of the wedding day?
Answer
Yes! We will be hosting celebrations each day. However, our hope is that you can simply relax, enjoy yourselves, and soak up everything Marbella has to offer. There will be time to explore on your own should you choose. Full details will be shared on the schedule page of our site soon!
Question
How do I get from the airport to Marbella?
Answer
The easiest way is by private transfer, rental car, Uber, or taxi. There are also buses from Málaga Airport to Marbella’s central bus station, which is a more affordable option. We’ll share more recommendations for car services and transfers closer to the date.

Question
Are there any local customs or etiquette I should know?
Answer
Spain is relaxed but stylish. Guests often dress elegantly for celebrations, and it’s customary to greet hosts with a friendly hug or kiss on the cheek. We think these phrases will come in handy for the celebration: Hello / Cheers! (when raising a glass): ¡Salud! (sah-LOOD) – literally “health” Goodbye / See you later: ¡Hasta luego! (AH-stah LWAY-goh) – “See you later” More wine / Keep it coming: ¡Otro vino, por favor! (OH-troh VEE-no por fah-VOR) – “Another wine, please!” Let’s celebrate / Cheers to love: ¡Brindemos por el amor! (breen-DEH-mos por el ah-MOR) A Spanish Toast: ¡Arriba, abajo, al centro, y pa’ dentro! (ahr-REE-bah, ah-BAH-ho, al SEHN-troh, ee pah DEHN-troh) – “Up, down, center, and inside!” – referring to the motion of raising your glass up, down, clinking in the center, and then drinking.
