What is the dress code for the different wedding festivities?
Welcome drinks: Semi-formal with a creative touch (dress groovy).
Ceremony & Reception: Elevated Chic (look nice but feel free to express yourself). If you’re thinking about wearing high heels for the wedding try to consider footwear that will be resilient in grass and sand (where we will be for the Ceremony and Reception).
What weather should I be dressing for in Lima?
In May the weather will be highs of 75° Fahrenheit (24°C) with the temperature dropping down to around 62°F at night (17°C). It should be nice and dry as rainy season will have ended and we will have ample heaters and a tent for the nighttime Reception to keep everyone toasty.
As a general recommendation, its best to dress in layers in May in Lima to be prepared for the slight shifts in temperature that will occur as day turns into night.
Is Lima safe?
Yes, Lima is safe, but just like any city you should always be vigilant of your belongings and aware of your surroundings. Its also recommended to use Ubers when travelling from place to place if it is a long distance.
Will the current political situation in Peru affect the wedding?
Throughout the duration of the political conflict we have continuously monitored the situation closely via our wedding planner and family in Lima. While a small number of protests continue to happen from time to time they must be announced in advance and are primarily only affecting the south of the country. Everything in Lima is working normally and our wedding planner has continued putting on very successful and safe weddings with no problems. We will be taking every precaution in the planning and rollout of our wedding festivities to make sure we remain safe and enjoy all the special celebrations we have planned for you :).
What kind of food will we be serving at the Wedding?
We will be supporting the finest local cuisine in Peru, featuring many of the dishes Peru is famous for such as Ceviche and Pisco Sours. We will also be providing options for our Vegetarian and Vegan guests. If you have any serious food allergies please let us know in advance so we can prepare accordingly.
