Q + A

If I have a question, who should I contact?

You can reach us at bowmanwedding831@gmail.com. However, if it is absolutely pressing that you get in touch with us, you may text us. We will be doing our best to check the email on a daily basis, so I promise we won't ignore you!

What is the dress code?

The dress code is Formal. We'd love to see our family and friends get dressed up for our big day! Dress to impress :) For women, floor-length dresses, or 3/4th length dresses are great! For men, instead of a formal tuxedo, a suit-and-tie will work nicely! Men, please refrain from wearing any denim and women, all shades of white.

Is the wedding outside?

Yes, the wedding ceremony will take place outside. The cocktail hour after the wedding will as well. However, the reception will take place inside.

Can I bring a guest/date?

Any guest/date will be specified on the invitations! Though we would love to have everyone share in our special day, due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate so many. If you would like to bring a guest who is different than who is specified on the invitation, please reach out to us. Invitations are specific to who is addressed on them. We thank you for understanding and encourage you to reach out to us if you have any further questions regarding this matter.

Can I take pictures/videos during the Ceremony?

We are having an unplugged ceremony. This means that once the ceremony officially begins, we ask that all phones be put away and silenced. We want everyone to be fully present and for our photographer and videographer to be able to capture the best moments. Once the ceremony is over, feel free to take as many pictures and videos as you like & don't forget to share them with us :)

What is the parking situation like?

The hotel itself is valet-only! So, if you are planning on parking on-site, we recommend having some cash on hand. We also recommend carpooling where you are able! And if you do not want to park on-site there is metered parking in downtown San Juan and some limited street parking as well. Uber and Lyft are also great additional options if you are looking to avoid parking fees.

What do I do if I can't make it?

We will miss you! If you know you cannot make it, then please let us know as soon as possible by mailing in your RSVP card with the corresponding answer.
