Do I have to RSVP ?

How many guests can I bring ?
Although we would love to accommodate everyone to celebrate our big day with us, unfortunately due to limited availability, we can only accommodate those people noted on the invitation. Please adhere to the invitation as it is addressed. There will be no exceptions.
Can I bring my child/children ?
As much as we love children, this is an ADULT ONLY celebration. We kindly ask you to leave the kiddos at home so you can kick back, let your hair down & enjoy yourself! Only children who are directly involved in the wedding party are expected to attend. Thank you for understanding.
Is there cost for parking/where can I park ?
For the Ceremony, The San Fernando Cathedral does not offer on-site parking. City Tower Garage is conveniently located within walking distance from The Cathedral. The address is 117 W Commerce St, San Antonio TX 78205. Please plan to arrive with plenty of time to find parking. The Ceremony will begin on time at 3:00 PM. For the reception at The San Antonio Grand Ballroom at La Cantera Resort & Spa, self-parking for the event will be complimentary for wedding guests the night of the wedding. Standard overnight fees will apply.
Do I/We have to stay at the hotel recommended ?
Absolutely not! If you wish to stay some place else please feel free to do so. There are other hotels nearby such as the Double Tree by Hilton, Drury Inn & Suites as well as options for Airbnb.
What if I don't RSVP, may I still come to the reception?
No, an RSVP is required. Due to planning limitations for the reception meals & seating arrangements, accommodations will not be made for those that do not RSVP. This will be strictly enforced.
Can I take pictures/videos during the ceremony?
During the ceremony, we kindly ask that you refrain from taking photos or videos. We want to see your smiling faces, not your phones, as we say "I do!". This also helps to ensure that our professional photos are free from distractions of screens and flashes. We've hired a professional photographer and videographer who will capture all the special moments, and we can't wait to share them with you!
After the ceremony, feel free to take as many pictures as you'd like at the reception! Thank you for understanding.
