Frequently asked questions

When should I RSVP by?

Please RSVP by October 31, 2026.

How should I get around Lima?

We recommend using Uber Comfort or Cabify. Traffic in Lima can be hectic and travel times are often unpredictable, especially during rush hour. Allow extra time and take care when crossing streets.

Do you have any safety tips for Lima?

As in any large city, some parts of Lima are safer than others. Violent crime is uncommon in the main visitor areas, but petty theft—especially phone snatching—does occur. We recommend:

  • Staying in Miraflores, San Isidro, Barranco, or the areas of Surco near the wedding activities.
  • Being aware of your surroundings, especially late at night or in quieter areas.
  • Limiting phone use while walking. Avoid using your phone near curbs or intersections, where someone passing on a motorcycle could grab it.
  • Crossing streets carefully, since drivers may not always yield to pedestrians.
What about food and water safety?

Do not drink tap water; choose bottled or filtered water instead. Busy, reputable restaurants are generally safe. Travelers with sensitive stomachs may wish to avoid raw salads, unpeeled fruit, street food, and food that has been sitting out.

Will transportation be provided for the wedding?

For guests traveling internationally, we’re happy to help arrange transportation from the ceremony to the reception. If this option is available to your household, please indicate your preference when you RSVP. We kindly ask other guests to arrange their own transportation. We plan to have a limited number of taxis waiting outside the ceremony. At the reception, taxi service will be available for transportation back to Lima, along with a larger bus at the end of the night.

Will parking be available?

Yes. Parking will be available at both the ceremony and reception venues.

Can I bring a plus one?

We are only able to accommodate the guests listed on your invitation.

Can I bring my children?

We’re happy to accommodate the children of guests traveling internationally. If this applies to your household, the option will appear when you RSVP.

What will the weather be like?

January is summer in Lima. Expect daytime highs around 80°F and evening temperatures in the 60s°F.

Could El Niño affect my trip?

A strong to extraordinary coastal El Niño is currently forecast for summer 2027. Lima may be hotter and more humid than usual, with a greater chance of rain. The exact impacts remain uncertain, so we recommend packing for heat and occasional rain and keeping your travel plans flexible, especially for trips outside Lima.

Can I update my RSVP after submitting it?

Yes. Return to the RSVP section, search for your invitation again, and update your response.
