We are so excited to have you join our special day and your presence at our wedding is the best gift we could ask for.

However, if you feel inclined to give us a wedding gift, contributing to our honeymoon would help get our newlywed life off to a great start!

We have set up a cash fund wedding registry or a wedding card box will be at our reception.

Registry

Below are a few of the MANY beautiful and fabulous options for staying in Cartagena. The heart of the city is the Old Town or "El Centro", which is set aside by colonial stone walls with the sea on the other side. Many hotels are almost exclusively former mansions turned into boutique dreams. Please note that Cartagena has become a popular tourist destination over the past few years.

We recommend booking as early as you can as hotels/AirBnbs book up quickly.

Rafael Nuñez International Airport - CTG Cartagena

is located in the Caribbean coast of Colombia and is typically about a

5-hour non-stop flight from New York/Newark. There are many direct flights from major cities, so we're hoping travel will be as painless as possible. Typically, the best fares are about 120-150 days prior to the date. We advise to check flight fares early for best prices. The airport is 15-20 minutes from the historic old city.

AIR BNB
House of rental

For groups of friends or family traveling together, Cartagena has amazing AIRBNB options that can that house up to 16 guests comfortably.

There are a variety of options including luxury villas, condos and apartments. Some AIRBNB options include chef services. AIRBNB offers one of the cheapest and comfortable options for stay. Our wedding events will mostly take place in the Old City or El Centro so we recommend staying in this area. Another great option are apartments/condos in the Bocagrande neighborhood. If you are debating where to stay or which Airbnb to book, please contact the wedding planner.

She would be happy to assist!
