Question

Why Jamica?Why Jamica?

Answer

We wanted more than just a wedding day, we wanted a full weekend with our favorite people, sunshine, ocean views, and significantly better weather than Ohio usually provides.

Question

Is Sandals South Coast adults only?Is Sandals South Coast adults only?

Answer

Yes, it is adults-only. Which means no children, no cannonballs near your morning coffee, and no one asking for chicken nuggets at the swim-up bar. Just peace.

Question

How many nights do I need to stay?How many nights do I need to stay?

Answer

Our wedding group requires a 3-night minimum stay, and honestly, if you’re flying to Jamaica, you deserve more than a quick in-and-out. We ask you come Thursday to Sunday, this gives you the full wedding weekend experience and ensures you won’t miss anything important… like us getting married. You are absolutely welcome to come earlier or stay longer.

Question

When should I book my room?When should I book my room?

Answer

The sooner, the better! Rooms in our wedding group block are limited and first come, first served. Also, it helps us dramatically reduce our own wedding-planning stress, so truly, thank you for your service.

Question

Can I book directly through Sandals or another travel website?Can I book directly through Sandals or another travel website?

Answer

Short answer: please don’t. Long answer: to be included in our wedding group, receive our rates, perks, and access to wedding events, all guests must book through Erin within our group block. Random internet deals may look tempting, but they can create issues with event access, transportation, and room coordination. This is one of those rare times where “I found something cheaper online” is not the move. Erin will take care of you.

Question

If I am a solo traveler, can I bring a plus one?If I am a solo traveler, can I bring a plus one?

Answer

YES... as long as they like sunsets and margaritas by the pool! Our resort planning is based on double occupancy, all rooms include only king beds, and solo travelers are still charged the full two-person room rate, so bringing someone usually makes the most sense. If you plan to bring someone, just let us know so we can plan accordingly.

Question

Do I need a passport?Do I need a passport?

Answer

Yes. Jamaica respectfully requires proof that you are, in fact, allowed to leave the country. Please make sure your passport is valid and does not expire within 6 months of travel. Check now, not two weeks before the wedding. Future you will be grateful.

Question

What Should I Pack?What Should I Pack?

Answer

First and foremost: your passport. We would love for you to actually make it into the country. Beyond that, think: Resort chic meets vacation mode Swimsuits. Multiple. You’re in Jamaica. Light, breathable outfits because the Caribbean does not care about your hair plans Dinner attire for evening reservations Sunglasses, sunscreen, and after-sun care for those of you who think “I don’t burn” Comfortable shoes for exploring the resort and dancing all night A light sweater for overly aggressive air conditioning and/or your flight For the wedding itself, the vibe is elevated island elegance. Think destination wedding, not nightclub in Miami. Also important: Please do not pack stress. We already handled that part. Please do not bring work laptops unless your idea of relaxation is answering emails poolside. Please do bring your appetite because we fully expect this weekend to revolve around food, drinks, and celebrating.

Question

Is airfare included?Is airfare included?

Answer

No, flights are booked separately. Please book your flights into Sangster International Airport (MBJ), and if flight planning makes your eye twitch, Erin can help with that too. Again, Erin for president.

Question

Anything not included?Anything not included?

Answer

After you purchase your resort stay and airfare, only additional spending is usually for spa services, off-property excursions, souvenirs, and decisions made after two poolside margaritas. No judgment.

Question

Will the Wedding Be Unplugged?Will the Wedding Be Unplugged?

Answer

Yes! During our ceremony, we kindly ask that phones, cameras, and recording devices stay tucked away and on silent. We promise we hired professionals to capture the moment, so there is no need to risk your arm being permanently featured in our wedding photos while filming a blurry vertical video. We’d truly love for everyone to be fully present with us during the ceremony and ask that guests wait to post photos or videos until we’ve had a chance to share a few ourselves first. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the fact that for once, you do not need to create content.

Question

Will there be activities outside of the wedding?Will there be activities outside of the wedding?

Answer

Yes! Because if we’re all flying to Jamaica, we are absolutely maximizing the experience at no cost to you. Optional group activities will be shared in December but think, wedding meets vacation meets “should we just stay here forever?”

Question

What if I have more questions?What if I have more questions?

Answer

For all travel questions, please contact Erin. For wedding questions, feel free to reach out to us. For emotional support, snacks, or playlist recommendations… results may vary. We seriously cannot wait to celebrate with you all.
