FAQs
We're busy getting married, so hopefully these answer all of your questions.
Etiquette & Extras
When do I need to RSVP by?
We kindly ask that you respond by Sunday, July 5, 2026. This helps us coordinate with our venue and ensures we have everything ready for a perfect celebration.
Is there a gifts registry?
We will have a wishing well at the reception for monetary contributions toward our future together. We won't have a formal gift registry, as we are lucky enough to already have everything we need for our home. More than anything, we’re just excited to celebrate with you!
Can I take photos during the day?
You are more than welcome to capture memories of our big day! However, we do ask that you remain mindful of the photographer and videographer. Please ensure you stay in your seat and avoid blocking their view or getting in their way during the day.
Travel & Logistics
Is there parking available at the church and reception?
Yes! There is complimentary parking at both locations. Here is what you need to know:
The Ceremony (St Paul the Apostle Catholic Church)
There is plenty of outdoor parking available on the church grounds. We kindly ask that you:
-
Park only in marked parking spaces or on the street if the lot is full.
-
Avoid parking on the grass area directly in front of the church entrance, as this space is strictly reserved for the wedding cars.
The Reception (The Highline Venue)
The Highline Venue offers complimentary onsite underground parking with direct lift access to Level 5.
-
Where to Park: Please head to the very bottom level of the parking garage, which is the designated area for our guests.
-
Overflow: If the underground lot is full, additional parking is available nearby on Chapel Rd, Meredith Street, French Ave, and Kitchener Parade.
What are my options if I’m not driving?
We want to make sure everyone gets to the celebration safely and easily! If you aren't planning to drive, here are the best ways to get around:
-
Rideshare: Uber and taxi services are readily available in the area and are a great option for getting to the church and the reception.
-
Carpooling: If you’d like to catch a ride with another guest, please let us know! We are happy to help connect you with a carpool group.
Details of the Day
Do I have to follow the specific dress code theme?
We would love to see our vision come to life with Floral Formal for the ladies and Traditional Filipino Barongs for the men! While wearing the theme is highly recommended and would make our photos extra special, please don’t worry if you can’t. We’d much rather have you there celebrating with us in your favourite formal outfit.
Our only "must" is a classic wedding rule: Please kindly avoid wearing white or ivory dresses.
Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?
Both our ceremony and reception will be held indoors in climate-controlled spaces, so you’ll be comfortable regardless of the weather.
What time should I arrive?
We want to make sure you have plenty of time to get settled and enjoy the day!
-
For the Ceremony: The doors of the church will open at 12:30 PM. We recommend arriving by 12:45 PM at the latest, as the ceremony will begin promptly at 1:00 PM sharp.
-
For the Reception: After the ceremony, feel free to explore the area or relax before the party starts. Doors to the Sky Ballroom Foyer will open at 5:30 PM, where canapés and an open bar will be ready and waiting for you!
Are plus ones allowed?
Due to limited space at our venue, we are unable to accommodate additional guests. We kindly ask that only those listed on your formal invitation attend. Thank you for understanding!
Can I bring my kids?
Children are more than welcome to join us for our wedding ceremony at the church. However, our reception will be limited to the children specifically named on the invitation. We appreciate your understanding and hope this allows you to enjoy a night of celebration with us!
Food & Drinks
I have dietary restrictions. How do I let you know?
We want everyone to enjoy the feast! Please let us know of any allergies or dietary requirements when you submit your RSVP through the website. If you weren't able to provide such details, please contact us directly and let us know at least one month prior.
Is there an open bar?
Yes! We can’t wait to toast with you. Please leave your wallet at home and bring your dancing shoes instead, as beer and wine will be available at the bar throughout the evening, as well as coffee, tea and soft drinks.
