Frequently Asked

Questions

Do we really need to RSVP?

YES, this will help us finalize our headcount for food allocation and seating arrangement.
In any case that you may have said Yes in our RSVP, but suddenly cannot come, PLEASE let us know ASAP through email and/or phone numbers so we can accommodate any changes.

Can I bring a date?

We understand that some guests would like to bring a companion to our wedding. However, due to the limited space available, we have carefully thought of our guest list and unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate everyone with a plus one.

If you have been extended a plus one on your invitation, we kindly request that you refer to our wedding website for RSVP instructions. Please note that no proxies are permitted for RSVPs. While we regret any constraints posed by limited space, we sincerely appreciate your understanding and hope you can join us for our special day.

Can we bring kids?
Although we love your little ones, we respectfully ask that our wedding be an adult-only occasion, with the exception of the designated members of the entourage. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
Can we take photos and videos during the ceremony?

We kindly request a STRICTLY UNPLUGGED CEREMONY, asking guests to refrain from using electronic devices to capture photos or videos inside the church, allowing everyone to fully immerse themselves in the moment. Official photographers, videographers, and content creators are present to capture every special moment, and we ask for your cooperation in ensuring their work is not disrupted.

However, we warmly invite you to capture memories after the ceremony and during the reception, and we would be delighted if you could share these moments with us using our official hashtag: #jbandterithewedding. Your understanding and cooperation in maintaining the intimacy of our ceremony while celebrating freely afterward is deeply appreciated.

Is the dress code strict?
We ask that our guests dress appropriately for this formal occasion. For the ladies, we have a suggested color palette for your long gown attire, focusing on muted shades of pink. However, feel free to explore other complementary hues within this spectrum. Please avoid neon or overly light shades of pink that may appear white in certain lighting. Gentlemen are encouraged to wear a black suit or tuxedo with a white shirt and black tie.
Can I sit anywhere during the reception?
We’ve carefully considered the seating arrangement to ensure everyone’s comfort and enjoyment. Rest assured, we’ve made every effort to accommodate everyone’s preferences and make the seating arrangements as enjoyable as possible for all.
When can we leave?
We’d love to have you stay for the whole reception, but we understand if you need to leave early for any reason. We’re aiming to wrap up the program by 9:00 PM.
