WEDDING ATTIRE

For Cartagena’s tropical weather, favor light and cool fabrics that won’t stick to your skin such as cotton, rayon, tulle or linen.

For men, linen suits. If you want to immerse yourself in the Caribbean culture, why not try a Guayabera - the traditional linen shirt.
 
As the event will take place by the beach, we recommend considering the weather conditions when selecting your attire.
 
Opt for lightweight fabrics and breathable materials to stay cool and comfortable.
 
Shorts, sandals, and overly casual attire are not permitted.
 
If you have any questions or need further clarification on the dress code, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.

What's the colombian currency?

Colombia operates on the official currency, the peso (COP), indicated by the $ symbol. Be mindful of the bill denominations with numerous zeros – 'mil' translates to $10,000 pesos [$2.56 USD] or $50,000 pesos [$12.78 USD]. Google offers a quick reference for exchange rates. If you perceive any discrepancies in charges, please do not hesitate to bring it to our attention. While credit cards are widely accepted in most restaurants, street vendors and taxis prefer cash transactions. For secure cash withdrawals, we recommend using ATMs located in reputable establishments such as banks, the airport, or your accommodation. Avoid street purchases of pesos. When using credit cards, you may encounter the choice between 'credito' (credit) and 'debito' (debit). If you choose credit, a straightforward response like 'Una, por favor' for a single installment is all you need. Additionally, be aware of the customary 10% voluntary tip automatically included in your bill in restaurants and cafes, known as 'propina voluntaria. May your financial transactions be seamless as you enjoy the festivities with ease and joy.
