Q + A

What is the weather like in December?

Daytime highs average around 79.5°F. Evenings and early mornings can be cooler, with lows averaging about 49.5°F. Pack layers to adjust to these temperature variations. December falls within Oaxaca's dry season, with minimal precipitation.

What is the dress code?

Dress to impress! The dress code is formal. For women, this means elegant dresses or gowns, and for men, suits are appropriate. For example, a floor-length dress or cocktail dress paired with heels, or a dark suit with a tie or bowtie. We can't wait to see you looking your best!

Can I bring a plus one?

In order to keep our wedding as intimate as possible, only the guests formally invited on your wedding invitation will be accommodated. If you received a plus one, they will appear on your invitation and when you RSVP. If you have any questions about this, feel free to reach out.

How do I get to the venue?

Oaxaca is a wonderfully walkable city, with many charming streets to explore on foot. However, if you prefer, taxis are readily available and convenient for getting around. We recommend arranging transportation in advance if you'd like to ensure a smooth and stress-free journey to the venue.

Are children welcome?

We kindly ask that children not in the wedding party stay at home for this special day. This allows us to create an intimate and enjoyable atmosphere for all our guests. Thank you for understanding!

Will there be any cultural traditions during the wedding?

Yes! After the ceremony, we’ll celebrate with a traditional Oaxacan calenda. It’s a lively and colorful parade with music, dancing, and festive energy that will move us from one part of the celebration to the next. We can’t wait to share this beautiful tradition with you!

Are you registered for gifts?

Your presence at our wedding means the world to us, especially since all of you are traveling to celebrate with us. We don’t have a registry, but if you feel inclined, we will have a link to a honeymoon fund available for contributions. Thank you for your love and generosity!
