Frequently Asked Questions

Helpful Hints: Our Wedding FAQ

RSVP is absolutely mandatory. This is essential for planning so we can ensure there's enough seating and food for everyone.

You may bring a plus one if the bride and groom have already extended an invitation to them.

We understand. Thanks for updating your RSVP.

RSVP is crucial for our wedding planning and is non-negotiable. To ensure we can accommodate all guests comfortably and make necessary arrangements, we kindly ask that you respond by the specified deadline. Thank you for your cooperation.

Please check our guest guidelines for the proper attire and color motif. If possible, please arrive 15-30 mins before the start of both the ceremony and reception to avoid any program disruptions.

There are parking spaces around the church premises should you run out of parking space from our designated parking area. The venue also has a lot of parking spaces for your use. Please provide us your plate number so we can see if we can reserve you a slot.

We've arranged seating to make sure everyone has a great time. Your seat is waiting for you!

Feel free to mingle and enjoy the cocktail hour until the reception begins. You may find your designated seat at the reception area.

As much as we want your kids at our wedding, the venue and atmosphere are more suited for adults. We hope you can join us for an adults-only celebration.

We kindly request no photography or videography during the ceremony to maintain the solemnity. We have our photo and video team to capture the moment.
