Black-tie optional. (Use Google or chatGTP if you need examples). We request that all guests refrain from wearing white. Leave that for the bride :) Our wedding accent colors are as follows (although guests are not strictly required to wear these): burgundy wine, sage green, champagne or gold).

Question

Can I take photos/videos during the ceremony?

Answer

We kindly ask that you put away phones and cameras during the ceremony so everyone can be fully present in the moment with us.

Once the reception begins, please feel free to take as many photos and videos as you’d like—we can’t wait to see the celebration through your eyes!

Question

Are children invited?

Answer

We love the little ones and welcome them to the celebration. Children under 12 years old will be given a kids meal. However, we do request that all children remain in their seats and stay quiet during the ceremony. Please note: While our reception will feature lots of fun music, some songs may include lyrics that aren’t ideal for little ears. We kindly encourage parents to use their discretion if bringing children.

Question

What kind of gifts do you prefer?

Answer

Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift we could ask for! If you wish to honor us with something more, we would be truly grateful for a contribution toward our future together—helping us create new memories, whether that’s making our house a home, exploring new destinations, or saving for life’s next big adventure. For those who prefer to give a traditional gift, we are also registered with Zola and Amazon, and you can find those links in this website.

Question

Should I bring cash?

Answer

Yes, bring a few bills and your best moves! We’ll be having a Money Dance, a beloved Filipino wedding tradition where guests pin or tuck cash onto the bride and groom in exchange for a quick dance. It’s a joyful way to share your blessings and show off your moves. Don’t worry — there’s an ATM at the resort and we’ll have helpers ready with pins and good vibes. Join in the fun!
