FAQ

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

We'd love to see our family and friends get dressed up for our big day! Dress to impress in your best formal cocktail attire - please no jeans/denim. The ceremony + reception will be held outdoors.

Question

What can I expect at the wedding venue?

Answer

The ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception are all at the same location (Villa Woodbine). The villa is located in Coconut Grove, a residential neighborhood of Miami, and is open-air. The villa is not located on a beach, so no need to plan for sandy conditions!

Question

Will transportation be provided?

Answer

Guests are expected to find their own transportation to the venue. Ubers/Lyfts operate in the area and should be easy to find. After the reception, we have hired a trolley service to escort guests from Villa Woodbine back to the Courtyard Marriott Coconut Grove. Shuttle service begins at 8:30PM and ends at 11:30PM.

Question

Where do I park?

Answer

Our venue has free on-site parking for those guests who will be driving to the wedding.

Question

Can I Bring a Guest/Date?

Answer

Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you received a plus one, they will appear under your name when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding and please reach out with any questions!

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Although we love all of your little ones, we are respectfully requesting that only adults attend the wedding. However, due to the fact that this is a destination wedding, we understand that securing a weekend-long childcare option may not be feasible. We would hate for you to miss the wedding for this reason, so if you are unable to find a childcare option, please reach out to us!

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

The doors to Villa Woodbine open at 5:00pm and the ceremony begins at 5:30pm sharp. Please arrive at least 15-30 minutes prior to ceremony start time.

Question

Can i take pictures during the ceremony?

Answer

We are having an unplugged ceremony, meaning that once the ceremony begins, we ask that all phones be put away and silenced. We want everyone to be fully present with us and for our photographer to be able to capture every special moment without any interference. Once the ceremony is over, feel free to take as many photos as you'd like and don't forget to share them with us!

Question

Where is the couple registered for gifts?

Answer

Due to this being a destination wedding, we have decided to not register for physical gifts. We kindly ask that you do not bring physical gifts as getting them home to Boston would be difficult to coordinate - your presence is present enough!

Question

Is there an open bar?

Answer

Yes - the drinks are on us and the hangover is on you! 🥂
