Tropical Semi-Formal rainforest attire. Haha, what does that even mean? This is not a black-tie event so leave your tuxedo at home. Men, please wear a jacket and tie or a traditional/linen suit. Ladies, a dress or a nice jumpsuit is perfectly acceptable. Colorful attire is welcomed! We will be in the rainforest :)
Unfortunately, due to our chosen venue, we are unable to extend the invitation to children.
Spanish and English are the official languages of Puerto Rico.
Puerto Rico is considered a territory of the United States, therefore it is a possession of the United States.
If you are a U.S. citizen you do not need a passport to travel to Puerto Rico.
Puerto Rico averages a comfortable 80 degrees throughout the year so dress requirements are understandably casual. During the day shorts, and bathing suits (light clothing in general) are acceptable. An old pair of tennis shoes or plastic sandals is good to have for walking on the reef. In the evenings, many hotels ask the men to wear long pants, shirt, and not be barefooted. Casual shoes, jeans or slacks are quite acceptable for the men and a light sun dress, slacks or shorts for the ladies.
Puerto Ricans are a warm and friendly people, but we do ask that you exercise the usual measure of caution. According to FBI statistics, Puerto Rico has a lower violent crime rate than many US states including California, New York, Washington, Georgia, Florida and Texas.
Prices in Puerto Rico are comparable to prices in the United States.
Puerto Rico's tap water is safe to drink. It is held and meets the same requirements set by the EPA for the United States.
Yes. You will not need a special international phone plan in Puerto Rico. The 4G LTE network works with most cellphone companies, and there is WiFi at many hotels and restaurants.
If you want to explore the entire island and plan on going to many different cities, then you should rent a car. If you plan on exploring one central location, such as San Juan, there are many taxis available, and a rental car will not be needed. Additionally, there is public transportation that is available throughout the San Juan Metro Area. If you plan on hiking El Yunque Forest by yourself, you will need a car to drive to the area. The night of the wedding there will be a shuttle provided to and from the Wyndham.
The Piña Colada was born in Puerto Rico, made with cream of coconut, white Puerto Rican Rum, and canned pineapple juice :)
