The Welcome Cocktail Hour will be cocktail attire, while our Ceremony/Reception will be black tie optional. We ask that you wear a tuxedo, dark color suit, or a floor-length/formal evening gown. Please refrain from wearing white, ivory, or champagne. I have put together some photos for those who need inspiration! https://pin.it/5ijJJaTz4
The ceremony will take place at the Monasterio de San Juan de los Reyes. The address is Calle de los Reyes Católicos, 17, 45002 Toledo, Spain The reception will take place at the Palacio de Galiana. The address is Camino Palacio de Galiana, 45006 Toledo, Spain.
The ceremony will take place indoors, while the reception will be outdoors. Since the ceremony will be taking place in a Catholic church, please bring something to cover your shoulders.
The weather is beautiful at the end of May, in both Toledo and Madrid. Expect warm, dry California-like weather, with highs of 78F. Another thing to note: May is peak season for springtime allergies, specifically coming from tree and grass pollen. Pack your preferred antihistamine if you are prone to seasonal allergies!
Yes, private buses will provide transport for our guests from the ceremony at the Monasterio to the reception at the Palacio de Galiana. Guests are also welcome to take a taxi or drive themselves if they prefer.
When submitting your RSVP, you will have the option to list any dietary restrictions or allergies you have.
Yes, there will be plenty of parking at the reception venue for those driving themselves.
To ensure everyone gets home safely, the same private buses will provide return transportation from the Palacio back to Toledo’s Old Town at the end of the festivities. Since the Palacio is only a 10-minute drive away, it’s a very quick trip. If you’d like to head back earlier, taxis are also easily available throughout the evening.
The best way to get to Toledo is from Madrid's Atocha Station, either by a high-speed 35-minute train or a 1-hr car ride. Please visit the travel page on our website for more information.
Cabify is widely used, as is Uber and Bolt.
While U.S. citizens do not need a visa to enter Spain and stay for 90 days, please make sure your passport is up to date. Passports must remain valid for at least 3 months after you intend to leave Spain.
Dining Times: Dinner in Spain starts much later than in the U.S., typically around 8:30 PM at the very earliest. Cash/Transactions: While it's wise to bring some euros, most places in Europe are credit card-friendly. For most transactions, there's an option to either pay in euros or dollars. Choose "euros" to avoid extra fees with your credit cards.
