Q + A

How do I RSVP?

You can RSVP right here on the website. RSVPs will open up once we send out invitations around March.

Where are the ceremony and reception taking place?

They are in the same location, Vandelli Botanical Garden. There is a lower garden where the ceremony will be held, and an upper garden where the cocktail hour and an indoor reception will take place.

How do I get to the venue?

Honestly, the google maps address will take you to the middle of Calçada do Galvão road. It is correct. Just put "Vandelli Botanical Garden" in your rideshare address search and call it a day.

Will there be food and drinks during cocktail hour?

After the wedding ceremony, we will be serving hors d’oeuvres accompanied by an open bar.

What is the dress code?

The dress code is Garden Party Formal. Think lighter colors and comfortable shoes. It will be hot. It will be both indoors & outdoors. You will be walking through a garden. There will be dirt paths.

Do you have a gift registry?

We are already so thankful that you have decided to join us on our special day in Portugal. In lieu of any gifts, we are accepting donations to help create memories at the start of our marriage via a honeymoon fund.

Who can I contact with any additional questions?

You can text John at 1(703)447-8084 or Maria at 1(347)924-2170.
