Can I bring a guest?
We kindly request that you only bring a guest if you were specifically given a plus one on your invitation. Due to venue capacity, we are unable to accommodate additional guests. Thank you for understanding.

The nearest airport is Bicol International Airport (DRP). If you will be staying at Misibis Bay Resort, the resort offers a complimentary shuttle from the airport to the resort and vice versa.
Can we take pictures and videos during the ceremony?
As we want the ceremony to be solemn, we ask for everyone to be fully present, which includes turning your phones on silent. Should you wish to take pictures during the wedding ceremony, please do so while keeping the aisles clear for the entourage. We’ve also hired a fantastic team of photographers and videographers to capture the moments.
What type of food will be served at the wedding reception?
Following the ceremony, please join us for a buffet dinner with a selection of delicious dishes for you to enjoy. Kindly inform us ASAP of any allergies or dietary needs.
