FAQs
Question
Why Cartagena?
Answer
Why not? Our friends and family live all around the country (and beyond!) and most would be flying to any wedding location, so we thought we'd make it fun! Adlai has been to Cartagena several times and loves it, and Sasha looks forward to exploring a beautiful new city with family and friends!
Question
Where will the wedding events take place?
Answer
The wedding events will all take place in the Old City of Cartagena- inside the walls. If you would like some help finding accommodations or activities, please contact our concierge, Two Travels (see Travel section of website for contact information).
Question
What should we wear to the wedding?
Answer
The wedding and wedding reception will be formal events, so please dress accordingly. But it will also likely be warm, so keep that in mind. Overall, we want everyone to be comfortable and feel good. For the reception- fun long colorful dresses or cocktail dresses for women, suits (light colored might be better for the weather) or a jacket for men. For the Friday night cocktail hour and welcome party- cocktail attire, cocktail dresses for women, dress shirts for men (jacket optional).
Question
What else can we do in Cartagena while we're here for the weekend?
Answer
Anything you want! You can explore the old city and learn the city of Cartagena, or take the time to enjoy some of the nearby beaches. If you want some help planning, please contact our (free of charge!) concierge, Two Travels, for help (see Travel section of website for contact information)!
Question
Are kids welcome to the wedding?
Answer
We want our guests to have fun, and we're happy to welcome families! If you plan to bring your kids, just make sure you RSVP for them as well.
Question
Will there be transportation between the wedding event spaces?
Answer
Our wedding ceremony and reception will be at different locations, but only a 3 minute walk apart! Since we expect that people will be staying in different hotels or villas around the city to suit their needs, we are not providing any transportation from accommodations to the venue but Ubers and taxis are easily available around the city.
Question
When will YOU (Sasha and Adlai) be getting to Cartagena?
Answer
Thanks for asking! We will be arriving the Monday before the wedding, and will be spending Tuesday through Thursday on a beach nearby and getting back to Cartagena Thursday. We'd be so happy to spend some extra time with our friends, so if you want to get to Colombia a bit early and hit the beach, let us know!
Question
What happens if we don't RSVP by October 15?
Answer
If you do not RSVP by October 15, we will mark this down as a "no" unless you let us know otherwise. We need to provide guest counts to our venue so that we can give all our guests the best experience possible!
